CATAWBA ISLAND -- U.S. Customs and Border Patrol will open an office in Ottawa County or Erie County to better monitor boat traffic between the United States and Canada, an official said."With the islands, there's a large amount of cross-border traffic," said Bammer, a Sandusky native. "We try to identify any of that traffic and determine if there is an illegal activity. The ultimate goal is to stop terrorist activity."We don't want to come in and disrupt any of the recreational activities," he said. "We're tasked with finding the people coming in and trying to circumvent (customs and immigration) policies."
