I think there are two things going on here:


1. You reprojected the `local_depth` raster from the topography location 
to new_nevins_dock, but without setting the target mapset in advance. So 
the resulting local_depth had NULL values everywhere. Regarding 
projecting with r.proj, note this comment in the man page:


/"To avoid excessive time consumption when reprojecting a map the region 
and resolution of the target location should be set appropriately 
beforehand./

/A simple way to do this is to check the projected bounds of the input 
map in the current location's projection using the////*-p*////flag. 
The////*-g*////flag reports the same thing, but in a form which can be 
directly cut and pasted into a//g.region 
<https://grass.osgeo.org/grass78/manuals/g.region.html>command. After 
setting the region in that way you might check the cell resolution with 
"g.region -p" then snap it to a regular grid withg.region 
<https://grass.osgeo.org/grass78/manuals/g.region.html>'s*-a*flag. 
E.g.g.region -a res=5 -p. Note that this is just a rough guide./

/A more involved, but more accurate, way to do this is to generate a 
vector "box" map of the region in the source location using//v.in.region 
-d <https://grass.osgeo.org/grass78/manuals/v.in.region.html>. This 
"box" map is then reprojected into the target location withv.proj 
<https://grass.osgeo.org/grass78/manuals/v.proj.html>. Next the region 
in the target location is set to the extent of the new vector map 
withg.region 
<https://grass.osgeo.org/grass78/manuals/g.region.html>along with the 
desired raster resolution (g.region -mcan be used in Latitude/Longitude 
locations to measure the geodetic length of a pixel).r.projis then run 
for the raster map the user wants to reproject. In this case a little 
preparation goes a long way."/


2. Then you used to `extent=` parameter to import 
columbia_2010_e_dtm_35.tif only within the current computational region, 
which you had set to match the raster `local_depth`. However it seems 
that these do not overlap at all, so the import failed.


What does:

gdalinfo 
~/projects/washington/nevins-dock/data/topography/columbia_2010_e_dtm_35.tif 
| grep -A4 "Coordinates"

show??


Does that help?
