Proposal aims to give legislators with information to help clean up local and regional waters.

By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO — An Assembly member’s attempt to arm his colleagues with information about the sources of plastic pollution in our oceans is currently making its way through the State Senate, being taken up by the Rules Committee a few weeks after the bill was unanimously approved in the lower legislative house.

Assembly Bill 1594, if signed into law, would require the California Ocean Protection Council to study the sources of plastic pollution in the ocean and report the results to the state by Jan. 1, 2019. The study, which would compile data on plastic pollution sources, is an extension of the council’s 2007 Resolution on Reducing and Preventing Marine Debris.

The bill took one step closer to becoming law when the lower legislative house approved Assembly member Richard Bloom’s (D-Santa Monica) proposal by a 74-0 vote on May 30; AB 1594 was introduced in the State Senate and referred to the upper house’s Rules Committee on June 8.

Plastic pollution in our oceans and

local waters is an increasing problem, according to a legislative analysis of AB 1594.

“Plastics are estimated to comprise 60-80 percent of all marine debris and 90 percent of all floating debris, which includes expanded polystyrene,” a legislative analysis of AB 1594 stated.

“According to the California Coastal Commission, the primary source of marine debris is urban runoff (i.e., litter). By 2050, plastics in the ocean will outweigh fish pound for pound if we keep producing (and failing to properly manage) plastics at predicted rates.”

A major issue with plastic pollution: fish often confuse such debris as food.

Most plastic pollution, according to an Assembly legislative analysis, is in the form of small particles.

“These plastic pieces are confused with small fish, plankton, or krill and ingested by birds and marine animals.

[More than] 600 marine animal species have been negatively affected by ingesting plastic worldwide,” the Assembly’s legislative analysis of AB 1594 stated.

In California alone upwards of 3 million tons of plastic packing waste is disposed of annually, according to language of AB 1594.

Part of the issue is stormwater runoff, which transports plastic litter from land to the ocean.

State Senate Rules Committee to review plastic pollution bill

Assembly member Richard Bloom’s proposal to compile data on plastic pollution sources continues to make its way through the legislature. The bill, is passed and signed into law, could give lawmakers additional information to help them draft new policies to fight plastic pollution in our oceans.

tuted Total Maximum Daily Load, or TMDL, policies to reduce the amount of litter dumped into the water from stormwater runoff. AB 1594 anticipated such TMDL programs could cost local, regional and state governments billions of dollars.

“Plastic, including, but not limited to, polystyrene and disposable food service packaging litter and the resulting marine debris present more than an aesthetic problem as this litter can be a danger to marine organisms through ingestion and entanglement,” language

of AB 1594 stated.

“This litter and marine debris also present a serious and growing threat to water quality, the beneficial uses of the waters of the state, and marine recreational human use, and they threaten the ability of California’s waters and the Pacific Ocean to sustain aquatic life.”

AB 1594, already approved in the Assembly, must survive a State Senate vote in order to head to Gov. Jerry Brown’s desk for signature. Of course Brown does have the option to veto the bill.

JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — Ducks do well in water. A duct-taped boat?

Not so much.

The U.S. Coast Guard picked up a 32-year-old man and his dog from an inflatable, duct-taped watercraft when it started to take on water in Gastineau Channel near Juneau, Alaska’s capital city, as reported by KTOO. The Coast Guard says in a release that the duct-taped boat was homemade.

HONOLULU (LOG News Service) — No modern navigation instrumentation guided a Polynesian voyaging canoe as it followed the horizon during a three-year journey around the globe.

About one dozen crewmembers for each leg of the voyage relied only on their understanding of nature’s cues — ocean swells, stars, wind, birds — and their own naau, or gut, to sail across about 40,000 nautical miles to 19 countries, spreading a message of malama honua: Caring for the Earth.

The shark was a female, Pica noticed, as she didn’t have any claspers.

Female soupfins tend to live in Southern California whereas their male counterparts live in Northern California. However they tend to mingle in the central coast.

Pica told The Log the shark tried to snap at him and a deckhand as they tried to pull her over the railing. When they got her down on the boat, she started to thrash on the deck.

Pica rolled the shark over on her back, secured her head and rubbed her belly.

“She calmed right down,” Pica stated. “We cut the line

that was wrapped all around her tail. We pulled the hook out of her mouth. One minute 2C she was freaking out. Then DARK you flip her over, rub her BKGND tummy and she goes into tonic immobilization.”

The angler who caught the shark was “a good, ethical fishBW The erman,” according to Pica. fisherman had no issue setting the shark free.

These sharks were overfished in the 1930s and 1940s for their fins and steak.

“There is currently very little information about the status of soupfin shark stocks off the West Coast,” the Monterey Bay Aquarium website states.

Pica declined to state the exact location where the shark was caught and later released.

comed the 61-foot double-hulled canoe Hokulea home to Hawaii when it entered a channel off the island Oahu and tied up to a floating dock with iconic Diamond Head in the distance.

Ka’iulani Murphy, an apprentice navigator on the double-hulled canoe, told The Associated Press that the successful journey taught her the value of ancient Polynesian maritime techniques.

“We really are sailing in their (the ancestors’) wake,” said Murphy, 38.“We had to re-learn what our ancestors had mastered.”

The toughest part of the journey was dealing with cloud cover and trying to maintain the proper speed so the boat escorting the canoe could keep pace, she said, adding that she enjoyed eating the fish the crew caught during the journey.

The voyage perpetuated the traditional wayfinding that brought the first Polynesians several thousand miles to Hawaii hundreds of years ago. The trip also helped train a new generation of young navigators.

Hokulea means star of gladness. The canoe was built and launched in the 1970s, when there were no Polynesian navigators left.

The epic round-the-world voyage that started in 2014 shows how far Hokulea has gone since its first voyage from Hawaii to Tahiti in 1976.

Disaster befell another voyage in 1978 when the canoe capsized off the Hawaiian island of Molokai in a blinding storm.

Hokulea is expected to embark next on an eight-month trip sailing throughout the Hawaiian Islands.

NEWPORT BEACH — The City of Newport Beach Public Works Department has one less Harbor Resources staff, since Shannon Levin left her position as Newport Beach harbor resources analyst and started her new position with O.C. Parks as Dana Point harbor manager.

The city is not currently recruiting for Levin’s replacement, according to Public Works Director Dave Webb.

Due to the harbor management modifications, the city may do some restructuring.

Dennis Durgan was recently hired as Newport Beach harbormaster. Durgan will manage the harbor by making sure people are adhering to city ordinances.

Candidates are currently being interviewed for 12 part-time positions to help patrol the harbor. The application process is already closed for those 12 positions and swim tests have been conducted.

Harbor Resources Manager Chris Miller will handle the harbor projects such as dredging.

Port of Long Beach plans for two new fireboat stations LONG BEACH — The Port of Long Beach, a major commercial gateway, has plans to develop a couple new stations to house fireboats.

The Harbor Commission consented to the fireboat station designs on June 12. A budget in the amount of $50.1 million for the construction of one station was also approved. The completion for this fireboat station construction on the main channel is expected to be in 2020.

“These fireboat stations will safeguard the Port and our customers in this new era of big ships,” Port of Long Beach Executive

Director Mario Cordero stated.“They will provide the best waterside response possible, maximize landside firefighting coverage and serve as a home for our new, state-of-the-art fireboats.

“With ships more than doubling in size in the last decade and cargo traffic breaking monthly records, this is a needed upgrade to Port safety,” Cordero continued.

A request for proposals for the construction of these stations is expected later this year.

Environmental documents to construct the Delta research station finalized SACRAMENTO — The environmental documents to construct the Delta Research Station (DRS) has been finalized by California Department of Water Resources (DWR) in May. This is a step forward in building a science center consisting of two facilities for an Estuarine Research Station (ERS) and Fish Technology Center (FTC).

The project proposes to develop this station on the former Rio Vista Army Base and bring together federal and state agencies in one location to conserve and study the largest West Coast estuary, the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta.

“Protection of our Delta, the most important estuary on the west coast of the western hemisphere, depends on science,” Congressman John Garamendi said.“The Rio Vista Estuarine Research Station will advance our understanding of the ecology of the region and provide critical information to direct policy.”

The cost to build this facility is projected at $90 million to $100 million. The ERS project is funded by DWR and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR). USBR is also funding the FTC project.

The 12-acre project is a smart investment for state and federal agencies, according to DWR Acting Director Bill Croyle.

“Ecologically and economically, much is at stake in the Delta,” Croyle stated. “By bringing together scientists who are now scattered across the region, the new Rio Vista field station should bring efficiency, spark collaboration and ultimately improve our understanding and management of this complex, dynamic place.”

Re: Co-existing with Sea Lions: Don’t Become a Viral Hit (June 16-29 issue) Weasel wording from NOAA again.

The article is about sea lions and they talk about seals. They have no reported cases of seals biting anybody so they cite “reports of a number of injuries to humans as a result of getting too close to an animal.” And that cited sea lion was not intending any harm or he would have done some. People were making him jump for treats.

He popped up and spied something left for him and grabbed what looked like a bag of stuff. He had a 1/4 second to make a decision. No harm done. NOAA PR is just trying to justify driving everybody away from docks or beaches where their surplus animals have overflowed into. Sabre rattling to make up for their impotence in the face of unintended consequence of over populating the state with marine mammals past the mandate of the MMPA. They cite the same old story of the guy holding the fish where a sea lion could jump up and steal it. The sea lion took the fish, hand and all and spat out the fisherman.

No malice intended. I don’t mean to stand up for sea lions as lovely things, but point out the lies NOAA

is broadcasting to justify closing facilities to the public by intimidation and gossip where they should be removing the marine mammals they rescued and released in urban areas. They have stopped working by the law and gone completely to PR and fake news. They let people sell urban marine mammals as worth exploiting for tourist attractions to replace revenue lost to the fishing industry and then think they can control that remotely.

STATEWIDE — The entirety of California’s coast fits neatly between metro San Diego’s southern reach and Smith River’s upper extremes. Smith River, like San Diego, is a coastal community doubling as California’s extreme border town. A few more clicks up the 101 Freeway places you in Oregon.

Acting as California’s welcome town for commuters traveling the United States’ Pacific Ocean coastline is about all Smith River and San Diego have in common. One city is a bustling metropolis with millions of residents, whereas the other is an unincorporated census-designated town where the region’s wildlife more than likely outnumbers the local population.

Yet Smith River is where the most recent Fish and Game Commission was held. The censusdesignated town has an estimated population of 767 people. (The entirety of Del Norte County, where Smith River is located, is home to less

29,000 residents.)

No major freeways service the small town.

The closest airport, which is 15 miles away, only services PenAir and shuttles solely to Portland, Oregon. United Airlines Express flies into Arcata-Eureka Airport (ACV) from San Francisco International Airport. ACV is about an 80-mile drive to Smith River.

The airport in Medford, Oregon could also be an option, though it is more than 100 miles away and requires a significant amount of mountain driving – which might not make for ideal driving conditions in the winter.

None of California Coastal Commission’s meetings this year are as far north as Smith River, though it’s most recent session was held in Arcata – a little less than two hours south of Smith River and the California-Oregon border.

Other cities on the Coastal Commission’s monthly tour include Seaside (near Monterey), Malibu and Cambria (north of San Luis Obispo).

The quasi-judicial agency has already met in San Luis Obispo, Newport Beach, Ventura and San Diego.

Future Fish and Game Commission meetings are set for Sacramento, San Diego and Atascadero (just north of San Luis Obispo).

Fast Facts: Cutter McCullough – A Century Underwater

By Parimal M. Rohit Southern California’s notorious June Gloom regularly brings low-lying cloud cover to the Los Angeles basin and San Diego metro. The same coastal fog appears to be responsible for one shipwreck at the upper reaches of the Southern California region.

June 13 marked the 100-year anniversary of the shipwreck of McCullough, a Coast Guard cutter. Commodore George Dewey commanded the ship, commissioned in 1897, in the 1898 Battle of Manila Bay (Spanish-American War).

McCullough was off the Southern California coast about 19 years later when, due to dense fog in the area, she collided with a passenger steamship at Pt. Conception, just northwest of Santa Barbara. (She was based in San Francisco and patrolled the California coast after her service in the Spanish-American War.) The Coast Guard commissioned McCullough to patrol the Bering Sea and enforce fur seal regu-

lations in Alaska. She was the largest cutter built at the time of her construction. The steam engine and sail-rigged masts allowed McCullough to travel at a cruising speed of 17 knots. McCullough, which cost about $200,000 to build, was also equipped with four rapid firing guns and one 15-inch torpedo tube.

A NOAA-Coast Guard research mission confirmed the remains of McCullough off the Southern California coast in October 2016.

Moving meetings around on a monthly basis to foster public participation certainly makes a lot of sense.

California, after all, is a large state.

Driving from San Diego to Smith River, for example, would require at least 14 hours of driving (passing through Los Angeles and the San Francisco Bay Area along the way.) Hosting a meeting one month in California’s northern coastal counties one month and then in points due south in other months would certainly give multiple constituents the opportunity to let their respective voices be heard.

The concept of a traveling policygoverning (or policymaking) agency is not necessarily a foreign concept.

Bobby Shriver, the former Santa Monica mayor and nephew of John F. Kennedy, proposed a rotating meeting schedule during his run for Los Angeles County Supervisor in 2014.

Residents of Lancaster, a Los Angeles County municipality, were about 75 miles away from the supervisorial meetings in Downtown L.A. Bringing a meeting to the Antelope Valley, Shriver argued, would help make the county government more accessible to its constituents.

(There have been attempts to split the northern portions of Los Angeles County into two, with a proposed Canyon County to represent cities and communities such as Lancaster, Palmdale, Quartz Hill, Acton and Santa Clarita.)

The Coastal Commission’s website states meetings are rotated to give as many people access to monthly meetings as possible – and every effort is made, according to the agency, to keep the agenda as local as possible each month in hopes of avoiding a Crescent City matter from being deliberated in Los Angeles or San Diego.

Rotating monthly meetings across the state certainly makes a lot of sense – yet, as with any operation, the system isn’t perfect.

A Coastal Commission deliberation to fire the agency’s executive director in February 2016 was held in Morro Bay, a small city on the Central California coast, roughly halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco.

Deliberating the dismissal of the agency’s executive director – who had supporters from all over the state – on the state’s central coast, in principal, would appear to be a fair compromise.

Accusations still flew of the Coastal Commission deliberately stunting the public’s involvement in any deliberations of Dr. Charles Lester’s future by hosting his fate-determining session in a city with limited access by air or ground, not to mention a three- to fourhour drive from either Los Angeles or San Francisco.

The other fissure in all of this is economics. It’s one thing to spray meetings all over the state in the name of equal access. Yet is access truly equal when the finances of attending a meeting might be out of reach for the agency’s constituents?

Both the Coastal Commission and

The Log • June 30 - July 13, 2017 • 7

Fish and Game Commission conduct two- or three-day public meetings.

Each session, once called to order in the morning, could continue deep into the evening – meaning appearance on an agenda item could require arriving one day before and leaving the day after deliberations.

Travel and lodging expenses associated with attending a Coastal Commission meeting – especially if multiple days are required – could easily cost a few hundred dollars, at least. This doesn’t factor in time potentially taken off work.

Perhaps there are Californians out there who don’t have the means to attend a Coastal Commission or Fish and Game Commission meeting. Just the same there might also be Californians who don’t have internet access or otherwise lack the means to watch a Coastal Commission meeting live.

What happens when an agenda item directly affects someone but they cannot afford the airfare or gasoline costs to make the trip to a Coastal Commission meeting in Seaside or a Fish and Game Commission deliberation in Smith River?

One practice both commissions can borrow from the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors is to institute satellite meetings each month, where constituents who are geographically distant from deliberations can still participate live from a remote location convenient to them.

To be fair the Fish and Game Commission does institute this practice during some of its meetings. Yet the Coastal Commission has recently been on a soapbox demanding developers, in the name of public access, to make their projects more affordable for lowincome users. What more could the agency do to continue making its deliberative process as accessible to people it continuously states to be defending?

IN MEMORIAM Bob Peterson, co-founder of Mikelson Yachts, dies The yacht brokerage industry lost an iconic figure as Mikelson Yachts cofounder Bob Peterson passed away, it was reported June 16. He was 92.

Peterson was described as an integral part of building Mikelson Yachts into a successful brokerage, the company said in a statement shared with The Log. Mikelson Yachts’ statement continued as follows: “From participating in the first Mikelson 42-footer as a promoter, to becoming its lead salesman throughout many years, Bob has carried the baton forward at every level. His love of boating started early.

“Bob went to Stanford University; just out of college he co-founded a Ford and Chrysler dealership in Portland, and began boating on the Columbia River with the family. He then sold the dealerships and moved to San Diego in the early 1960s, where he took a long sabbatical, bought a 90-foot classic yacht, and took the whole family to Mexico on an extended cruise for a year.

Bob Peterson

“Then, [he returned] back to San Diego where he parlayed his skills into many businesses, including: real estate & hotel development, started a chain of restaurants, became the leading broker nationwide for Eastman-Dillon Securities, started and operated an oil exploration

and investment firm…and the list goes on.

“Bob’s boating experiences continued through those years as well, which included converting a 65-foot Tug into a cruising yacht, building a 115foot Brigantine and sailing it, with his kids, through the South Pacific, the operation of a small inter-island Freighter through the Caribbean, just to name a few.

“After purchasing many personal boats through his good friend Dave Fraser, Dave asked Bob to help operate and develop his brokerage office in San Diego. After many years of success there,

he started and operated his own Yacht Brokerage firm, and then decided to head off to Micronesia to build a school. Not to let any grass grow under his feet, after several years of that he headed home to work again at Mikelson, becoming the lead salesman in new boat sales. His list of customers, who loved and revered him for his no nonsense and incredible desire to take care of them, is long indeed. He had a sense of intense focus to make sure every customer was well taken care of. It was a team effort with his wife, Jeni, by his side the whole way.

“It is with tremendous sadness that we at Mikelson, as well as every friend and customer who came to know him, say goodbye. But it was a long and fulfilling journey. At 92, Bob passed away peacefully at his home in Borrego, a place he loved, with his wife Jeni and son Dick there with him.

“He will be remembered for more than just his passion for the water and love of people, but also his spirit of optimism and encouragement.”

Hugo Carver, co-owner of Knight & Carver, dies Fixture in San Diego’s maritime space loses battle with Lou Gehrig’s Disease.

By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — Hugo Carver, a prominent figure in San Diego’s maritime industry, died on June 1, his family and associates confirmed. He was 72.

Carver, who was the second half of the yacht building company Knight & Carver, lost an 18-month battle with ALS, commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.

A commemoration of Carver’s life – penned by a former Knight & Carver employee – hailed the former marine professional as fun loving and possessing quirky brilliance.

John Freeman, who penned Carver’s remembrance and submitted it to The Log, elaborated on the man’s personality and practices.

“Ever the innovator, Carver – who was known to all who knew him as simply ‘Hugo’ – initiated many of the maritime firm’s new-build techniques, many based on doodles drawn in pencil on scratch paper,” Freeman wrote.

Such innovation certainly played out in the early 2000s, when Knight & Carver expanded its services to the manufacture and repair of utility-scale wind blades. The wind blades were made of the same fiberglass composite materials the company used in boat hulls. Wind blade production plants operated out of National City and Howard, South Dakota.

The remembrance detailed Carver’s foray into the yacht building space, which goes back to 1971.

John Knight – the other half of Knight

Hugo Carver

& Carver – reminisced on his first interactions with Carver. The two first met at California Maritime Academy in 1963, when they were 18 years old and freshman roommates.

“We were classmates, roommates several times, shipmates on two merchant ships, and business partners,” Knight stated.

“Hugo was so unique in so many ways. He was full of life, witty, and wonderfully salty with an abundant sense of humor. He was a walking encyclopedia on many subjects, but especially boating knowledge.”

They both graduated in 1966 and were assigned SS President Pierce, a 535-foot cargo ship, as licensed marine engineers.

“During that initial six-month deployment, they served together in Manila, Saigon, Hong Kong, Japan, Indonesia, Malaysia and Panama,” Freeman wrote.

“They later served on the SS President Tyler, a 565-foot hybrid container ship known as

a ‘SeaRacer,’ forging history as the modern era of container ships evolved.”

Knight and Carver partnered together five years later, when they created Knight & Carver Yacht Center in 1971. The partnership spawned when Knight, who launched a boat-repair business in San Diego, asked Carver to join him in the business endeavor.

The company grew into a major presence on the West Coast during the next 40 years, what with 100-plus custom-made yachts built and about 40,000 boats repaired by Knight & Carver. It first opened on Hancock Street near San Diego Sports Arena and moved to Mission Bay Marina before settling at its largest location in National City.

Knight & Carver also hosted seven America’s Cup syndicates at its Mission Bay location, including a Soviet Union vessel later donated to Maritime Museum of San Diego.

The company finally closed in 2013.

“Throughout our careers we were always at the forefront of the maritime industry’s latest trends in engineering, design and new-build,” Knight said in Freeman’s remembrance.

Carver was also an avid sailor, according to Freeman. He was a member of Silver Gate Yacht Club and Ancient Mariners Sailing Society. Many times he could be found aboard Nirvana, a 64-foot Alden cutter his parents acquired in 1958. Carver and his family reportedly lived aboard Nirvana in the 1970s.

Both Carver and Knight participated in boat races to Ensenada, as well.

“We won many a race to Ensenada with Hugo in charge,” Knight stated in Freeman’s remembrance.“And the after-parties were always more than memorable.”

Carver was born on April 12, 1945 and was one of six children (three brothers and two sisters). He spent portions of his youth in Northridge and Newport Beach.

He was a competitive swimmer and led the Newport Harbor High School swim team to a national championship. Carver also body surfed regularly at The Wedge.

He later settled in San Diego, living aboard his family boat initially before moving into a landside home in San Diego’s North Park. His family later moved to another home in Point Loma.

“In his later years while at Knight & Carver, he would cheerfully lead dozens of employees in early-morning yoga and stretching drills,” Freeman wrote in his remembrance.“Until slowed by his ALS diagnosis in 2015, he could be seen piloting his prized 23-foot crimson-and-gold sailboat Cat’s Paws, and joyfully peddling his bicycle around San Diego.”

Carver was married to his wife, Marjie, for almost 50 years. They had two daughters together – Jennifer Carver Jones and Serena Carver Noble – as well as seven grandchildren.

Jones, unfortunately, was killed about two weeks after Carver’s death. A car reportedly struck her while crossing the street near a school in the Clairemont neighborhood of San Diego. She was 41 and was survived by her husband and two children (Maya, 11, and Hugo, 5).

Carver’s life will be celebrated July 16, from 2-4 p.m., at Silver Gate Yacht Club.

The family suggests making a contribution to the ALS Association, Greater San Diego Chapter in lieu of flowers.

Port of San Diego rendering

thelog.com

A planned revitalization of the Chula Vista waterfront took one step closer to reality when the Port of San Diego and city of Chula Vista entered into a non-binding letter of intent to move the project forward.

Revitalization on Chula Vista Harbor finally gains a little momentum Port of San Diego and city of Chula Vista enter into a nonbinding letter of intent to move revitalization forward.

By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — The slow churn that is governmental bureaucracy finally yielded some results on the final day of spring 2017 as the Port of San Diego and Chula Vista City Council entered into a non-binding letter of intent to bring a planned revitalization of massive waterfront in south San Diego County to life.

San Diego’s unified port district and Chula Vista both signed off on the nonbinding letter of intent, which outlines economic terms for the Chula Vista Bayfront project, on June 20. If realized in its current iteration the redevelopment project could cost almost $1 billion.

Chula Vista’s council members joined port district commissioners on the dais during a June 20 joint meeting held at the Port of San Diego headquarters. Both agencies separately voted in favor of signing the non-binding letter of intent.

The public-private partnership would also bring RIDA Development Corp. into the fold; the development company would oversee construction of a 500,000-square-foot convention center and hotel project adjacent to Chula Vista Harbor’s two marinas.

RIDA is reportedly in talks with Gaylord Hotels to develop the anchor hotel property.

A joint effort to revitalize a waterfront in San Diego County’s secondlargest city proved to be a “historic milestone in the transformation of the Chula Vista Bayfront,” Port of San Diego CEO Randa Coniglio said.

“The port and the city have been in this together for just about 20 years,” Coniglio told Port of San Diego’s board members and Chula Vista council members. “We have framed up a financial partnership between the port and the city, [which] means we’ll continue to be in this together for decades to come.”

Port district staff stated the antici-

pated budget for the Bayfront project is $969.3 million – with RIDA contributing $688 million; Chula Vista and the port district are expected to provide $281.3 million in overall funding.

Chula Vista Mayor Mary Casillas Salas said the Bayfront project would facilitate the economic transformation of San Diego’s South Bay. “We have to be patient and see this project blossom, and see it blossom not only for the hotel and convention center, but the catalyst for all the other businesses that will be here, the investors that would come to the South Bay to create even more jobs for our community,” Salas said. “This is really going to change the face of Chula Vista and the South Bay.” The port district had negotiated details of the Bayfront project with RIDA for about two years. Port district staff said, in a report to commissioners, the non-binding letter of intent was “an important interim step … for development of the resort hotel and convention center.”

“This is a landmark deal,” Commissioner Marshall Merrifield said.

“It’s the largest public-partnership ever done in San Diego County. We have converted an industrial site, where a power plant and a substation was, into what would be [a] signature park, beautiful bayfront and a natural resources management plan.”

Coniglio said RIDA was the perfect private partner to move the Chula Vista Bayfront revitalization forward.

The planning process for Chula Vista Bayfront’s redevelopment was a thoughtful one, Ira Mitzner, CEO of RIDA, told commissioners and council members.

“I think you will see a very thoughtful project that not only is meant to be successful as a hotel, convention center, resort [and] conference center, but also is meant to anchor and embrace, for the citizens of Chula Vista [and] for the entire region, a destination,” Mitzner said. “It’s going to make this region all the more competitive.”

Mitzner hinted a grand opening of the Chula Vista Bayfront could potentially take place within the next five years.

Los Angeles County also seeks to install 200 boatlifts in an effort to meet copper pollution mandates.

By Parimal M. Rohit MARINA DEL REY — Los Angeles County could soon be cracking down on hull cleaning practices at Marina del Rey and installing boatlifts across the harbor in an attempt to limit the amount of copper sediment found in local waters.

The county’s Small Craft Harbor Commission discussed parallel proposals to institute best management practices for hull cleaning services and install as many as 200 boatlifts in the harbor.

Such policies are being sought to meet a county mandate to reduce copper loads in Marina del Rey’s waters by 85 percent by 2024. The mandate is part of a Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) restriction adopted by county officials in 2014.

Michael Tripp, the planning chief with Los Angeles County’s Department of Beaches and Harbors, stated respective proposals for a boatlift and hull cleaning certification program are

two elements of a larger effort to reduce copper levels in Marina del Rey. Tripp added the current mandate doesn’t call for an outright ban of copper in Marina del Rey’s waters. Boaters, boatyards and marina operators are instead in a position to be creative in finding ways to limit the amount of copper they would allow into local waters.

Michael Zucchet named newest Port of San Diego commissioner What Happened: The Port of San Diego has a new commissioner.

Michael Zucchet was named to the seven-member panel, it was announced by the port district. Zucchet was sworn in on June 15. His first board meeting as commissioner was scheduled to be June 20, however he did not attend due to a personal matter.

The new commissioner, who represented San Diego’s District 2 on the City Council, reportedly has environmental economics, political and public affairs experience. Zucchet also serves as the general manager of San Diego Municipal Employees Association, a union representing union workers.

He was also a legislative and community affairs director with the San Diego City Firefighters and had worked for Unity Consumers’ Action Network.

Other prior experience includes working with a sector of the U.S. Department of Energy as a renewable energy economist and associating with Environmental Defense Center. Zucchet also was president of the San Diego League of Conservation Voters, chair of San Diego MADD Advisory, chair of San Diego city’s Municipal Golf Committee and member of the San Diego Business Aliance for Water, among other positions.

Zuchnet has degrees from the University of California, Santa Barbara (B.A., Business Economics) and Duke University (M.A., Environmental Economics and Policy).

What’s On Tap: Zucchet succeeds Bob Nelson, who recently stepped down from the dais.

Avalon supportive of Paris Climate Agreement What Happened: Catalina’s only municipality hopes to remain supportive of the Paris Climate Agreement despite the nation’s recent withdrawal from the international accord on environmental progress and sustainability.

Avalon’s elected leaders briefly discussed ways to be supportive of environmentally friendly policies and the Paris Agreement without simultaneously protesting the current presidential administration.

The June 20 discussion was held one week ahead of Mayor Ann Marshall’s planned attendance of Climate Day LA, a one-day conference at the Ace Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles.

“I just want to make sure that this doesn’t turn into a bashing of the President of the United States and whatever his policies are. I want to be sure this is [the city of Avalon] going forward with trying to understand what we can do to better our community,” Council member Joe Sampson told his colleagues.“Whether you agree on climate change or not, there are things we

can do to make the planet more sustainable and green.”

City Manager David Jinkens said Avalon has already been a leader in sustainability and green practices.

“What we can do to influence what China does … is more remote, but you are already taking action,” Jinkens told council members.

The City Council’s discussion came on the heels of a request for Avalon to join 298 cities in upholding the Paris Agreement.

“The Paris Agreement is one that was entered into through Executive Order of

President [Barack] Obama and recently rescinded by President [Donald] Trump. The issue is complex with differing sides having differing opinions on the matter as to cost and benefit,” city staff told council members in a report.“American cities, regions and state government[s] still have the ability to adopt policies and programs to promote a sustainable future.”

What’s On Tap: Marshall hoped her attendance at the Climate Day LA event would provide some guidance to the city’s future policies on environmental issues.

Santa Barbara, exhausted of free state money, gains reallocation from Avalon.

By Nina K. Jussila SANTA BARBARA — Applying for a grant can be tricky. Determining the amount of funds needed can be difficult. State of California’s Parks and Recreation Division of Boating and Waterways (DBW) recognizes this, which is why a certain program offered by DBW allows for funds to be transferred.

Avalon accepted a $32,400 grant from DBW in September 2015. The grant provides reimbursement funds for the Surrendered and Abandoned Vessel Exchange (SAVE) program.

The funding is available for two years, so Avalon’s SAVE grant is soon to expire.

“The city of Avalon has not been able to use these funds and the Division of Boating and Waterways allows grantees to ‘pass through’ to assist other agencies, according to the Avalon City Council June 6 agenda.

“The city of Santa Barbara Waterfront Department has requested $10,613.00,” the agenda continued.

Derelict boats are currently not an issue in Avalon. The harbor is home to only one abandoned vessel at this time, Harbormaster Brian Bray confirmed on June 15.

Santa Barbara did receive a $30,000 grant in SAVE funding from DBW in October 2015; the city exhausted its grant funds as of December 2016.

“We got rid of 17 boats through that grant. Those were 17 vessel turn-ins,” Santa Barbara Harbor Patrol Supervisor Steve McCullough said, adding the city also received assistance from the San Francisco suburb of San Mateo. “We also had three abandoned vessels, and we were able to do one of these funds assist with San Mateo Harbor District.

They had grant money that they didn’t

spend, so they paid for those three abandoned boats.”

DBW reached out to Avalon after noticing all its funding would not be used before it expired, so the agency facilitated a transfer of funds between cities, according to California Department of Parks and Recreation Deputy Director of Public Affairs Gloria Sandoval.

“If another agency has a grant and didn’t spend it, then they could Santa Barbara Harbor will be getting some assistance from the city of Avalon to help remove abandoned vessels from its waterfront.

Avalon had accepted grant funds from the state but did not used what was allocated to the city, allowing officials to redirect the money to do what’s called a Santa Barbara. ‘funds assist’ with another agency,” McCullough explained. “That’s what we did with more. this program, so the boats don’t end up San Mateo district, and that’s what we “When an agency applies for fundat the bottom of the bay or as marine are doing with Avalon. ing, they are projecting what they think debris.

Marine Engine and Equipment Thefts: Protect Yourself Your marina’s security might not be enough to prevent folks from stealing your marine equipment.

NATIONWIDE — Plenty of ink in recent years has been spent on what boaters and marinas must do to rid waterfronts of abandoned vessels. If only we could quickly unload of those “eyesores” OUT of a harbor or marina, right? Rarely, however, is ink expended on the virtues of keeping perfectly functioning boats IN a harbor or marina, perfectly safe and secure from unsavory elements within the criminal world.

An unofficial effort is afoot to raise awareness of – and hopefully combat against – a recent spate of marine engine and equipment theft from boats “securely” stationed in marina slips. It’s not quite a formal task force or coordinated effort but a smorgasbord of law enforcement agencies and private organizations are casually affiliating with each other to address news reports of people breaking into marinas in Florida, Texas and other states to steal outboard engines, navigational units and/or electronic equipment.

Apparently criminals are circumventing security feeds and other measures to get to these recreational vessels, stripping them of valuable equipment.

These items, speculatively, could be yielding major payouts on the black market.

Amenities such as security cameras, fences and coded doors might not be enough to defend against this recent rash of outboard engine and marine equipment theft. Initial reports of such crimes occurred at marinas or boatyards in Florida, Texas and Virginia. Surely Southern California’s marinas aren’t (or won’t be) immune from such activities.

Several questions come to mind in light of these recent news reports of marine engine and equipment theft.

What could Southern California marinas and boaters do to protect against thefts of outboard engines and similar boating equipment? What items should boaters understand to be valuable enough to be targeted? Are such thefts becoming more commonplace? Is there any way of knowing what’s being done with the stolen items? What formal efforts are underway, if anything, to help address this problem?

Coordinated response?

The unofficial effort to address theft of marine engines and equipment hopes to find some answers. Though not a formal task force the national effort appears to be a cooperative affiliation of law enforcement agencies and private organizations.

Details of the working group are not yet public, but BoatUS and Maritime Program Group Claims Director Daniel Rutherford confirmed its existence.

A trending crime ring appears to be targeting marine engines and equipment, according to BoatUS and insurance professionals. Criminals are reportedly finding ways around marina security to steal hundreds or thousands of dollars of boat equipment.

The working group – made up of certified marine investigators, multiple levels of law enforcement and private organizations – is urging recreational boaters to be vigilant about what’s happening at their marinas and harbors.

Sunroad Marina general manager Jim Behun said his waterfront venue has a few layers of protection. The San Diego Harbor Patrol, for example, conducts a decoy program to monitor bicycle thefts at local marinas; a few people were caught in the act. An iWatch program, which encourages marina operators, boaters and anglers to pay attention to their respective surroundings, is also in effect.

The marina, itself, requires use of a key to get in and out of the gate-controlled entries. Meanwhile dockmasters representing each marina in San Diego meet monthly and discuss any and all relevant activities occurring on the waterfront.

Behun said boaters should practice as much common sense as possible when seeking to protect their vessels.

Boaters should lock their boats, avoid hiding keys in obvious places, consider using a combination lock wherever possible and look into installing motion lights and/or cameras at their respective slips.

“We recommend if someone is walking behind a gate … engage them a bit to see if they belong,” Behun said, adding boat owners do not have to confront suspicious visitors but instead should contact local police. “The key is lighting, good locks and vigilance by each tenant.”

Project Kraken Marine-related theft isn’t necessarily a new phenomenon, but there have been quite a few reports of outboard engines and electronic equipment being stolen across the United States and in the United Kingdom.

Thieves in Washington State’s Skagit County, for example, reportedly targeted outboard engines in early 2016.

An estimated $250,000 worth of marine engines was stolen from a boat dealership in South Carolina a few months later, according to news reports.

Two men in New Jersey were reportedly charged with stealing $140,000 in marine engine parts back in 2013.

Yachting & Boating World, a maritime publication in the United Kingdom, reported theft of outboard engines increased to 60 percent of all marine crimes in 2014. Thieves reportedly targeted 20-horsepower engines weighing about 125 pounds, according to the YB&W story. Such engines were easy to remove from the marina area and transport in the back of a truck or van.

A separate news article published several months later stated marinas experienced a spike in theft of 350-horsepower engines (roughly 800 to 900 pounds in weight) in Hampshire, U.K. Law enforcement in Hampshire, which is located near Southampton and Portsmouth in the southern edge of the United Kingdom, launch Project Kraken to monitor outboard engine thefts at local marinas. A coordinated effort to steal outboard engines between October and December 2015 was likely connected to a Lithuanian crime ring, Hampshire police reported.

“We are dealing with a group of Lithuanian males who are highly organised and it would appear, maybe stealing to order,” Hampshire law enforcement stated in its January 2016 public newsletter.

The newsletter identified six common themes local boaters should pay attention to when keeping a look out for potential culprits of outboard engines or marine electronic equipments.

“The majority of incidents have involved more than one person (normally three) using a white transit sized van. The thieves have targeted secure compounds where large amounts of marine property are being stored,” Hampshire law enforcement officials stated. “The evidence we have secured suggests that these thefts are occurring at night - specifically in the early hours of the morning. The majority of thefts have been committed using vans with false plates fitted to them.

“The thieves have demonstrated that they have an excellent knowledge of the

site and it is almost certain that they have carried out reconnaissance prior to committing the theft,” Hampshire police continued. “They are aware of security measures and have actively taken measures to avoid them – this has usually involved cutting through perimeter fences to enter in a discreet location on site and avoid CCTV detection (this perimeter breach has involved cutting a hole big enough to drive the van through on more than one occasion.”

Protecting yourself Some marine manufacturers launched theft-protection products to give recreational boat owners a tool to defend against outboard engine theft.

Yamaha, for example, introduced a command link function on its outboard engines. The theft deterrent system – Y-COP, or Yamaha Customer Outboard Protection – would disable the motor.

Others have suggested placing a tracking device on outboard engines and electronic equipment.

The Log’s sister publication, Boating World, added outboard engine thefts can’t fully be stopped, but boaters should purchase insurance and take certain steps to protect and secure their vessels.

“There’s one good reason thieves tend to target outboard motors rather than just stealing a whole boat: Outboards are far less traceable,” the Boating World article stated. “The easiest and quickest way to steal an outboard is to take the whole boat. And it’s amazing to see the number of boats on a trailer with no security at all.”

BoatUS also offered a few practical tips to prevent marine engine and equipment thefts, such as installing bright lights and motion-sensors in the boat storage area, locking helm electronics behind a solid cover and installing some sort of tracking device.

Also be mindful of people posing as customers or marina visitors during the day, as they might be scouts. Are they asking suspicious questions about access?

“Use tamper-resistant fasteners for mounting electronics and outboard locking devices. Using a special nut with an engine-mounting bolt that requires a special key can help,” BoatUS advised in a released statement. “Make stealing expensive electronics less appealing by engraving and posting a warning (this goes for the outboard, too). Create and keep at home an engine and electronics inventory list that includes manufacturer and serial number, and take plenty of pictures – including the boat.”

Time will tell whether boaters will have a fully functioning national task force in their arsenal to combat marine engine and equipment thefts. In the meantime the best Southern California’s boaters can do is to not take anything for granted and take common sense steps to make sure their vessels are insured and secured.

Regional plan would continue studying water quality conditions and trends in San Diego & Orange counties.

By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — A coalition of Southern California public agencies plan on infusing as much as $1.525 million over five years to evaluate the status and trends of aquatic life, sediments and water quality in coastal harbors along the San Diego and Orange County coast.

The Port of San Diego’s Board of Port Commissioners approved a Regional Harbor Monitoring Program at its June 20 meeting, extending efforts initiated under a water quality board mandate and multi-agency pilot program to measure toxicity and biodiversity in local waterfront surrounded by large human populations.

Amec Foster Wheeler was selected as the firm to oversee the monitoring program; Wheeler was one of two companies to submit a bid to the port district, according to a staaff report to commissioners. (Weston Solutions Inc. was the other bidder.)

A mandate to assess aquatic life, sediment and water quality was set by the San Diego Regional Water Quality Control Board in 2003. A pilot program involving the port district, cities of Oceanside and San Diego and Orange County was launched two years later to continue monitoring aquatic life, sediment and water quality.

The Regional harbor Monitoring Program would specifically study water quality in Dana Point Harbor, Mission Bay, Oceanside Harbor and San Diego Bay. All four agencies extended the mutual agreement through June 2018; the port district’s action on June 20 would continue the harbor water quality monitoring for another five years.

The multiagency monitoring program’s mission is, according to port district staff, to promote “a comprehensive vision of water uses and environmental stewardship integrated with regional plans.”

Several questions will be asked as the monitoring programs continues throughout the next five years, such as what pollutants are being inserted into the water and where in the harbor is most of the pollution found.

Is the water safe for body contact (such as swimming)? Is it safe to eat fish caught from these waters?

The monitoring program would also analyze long-term water quality trends for each harbor and study whether healthy ecosystems are sustained at each waterfront venue.

Weston’s proposal included nine subcontractors, to perform third party review, quality assurance, various analyses and testing, and vessel support.

The subcontractors include Dancing Coyote Environmental, EcoAnalysts, EnviroMatrix, Eurofins, Nautilus,

Sea Ventures and Six Scientific.

The Weston team would include Andrea Crumpacker (principal), Sheila Holt (Project Manager), Daniel McCoy (assistant project manager), Sheri Dister (quality assurance manager) and Geoff Compeau (technical advisor). The company is headquartered in Pennsylvania but maintains an office in Carlsbad.

Port of San Diego to monitor harbor water through 2022

The Port of San Diego selected a vendor to oversee the district’s monitoring of aquatic life, sediments and water quality.

The port district, which represents the largest harbor area of the parties involved, would be responsible for 56 percent of the program’s costs.

Other water quality initiatives are concurrently in play at San Diego Bay and other waterfronts. A Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) policy, for example, was implemented at Shelter Island to restrict the amount of copper pollution in local waters there.

A habitat restoration at Chula Vista Wildlife Reserve was also implemented.

State water officials also implemented a TMDL program for Baby Beach at Dana Point Harbor.

City council members collide on best course of action for proposed access amenity.

By Parimal M. Rohit REDONDO BEACH — A divided Redondo Beach City Council narrowly decided on June 13 move forward with plans to reconsider the location of King Harbor’s first-ever boat launch ramp, thanks to a split vote decided entirely on what would qualify as partisan lines in the South Bay municipality.

A shorthanded council opened the door for the city to relocate a planned boat launch ramp to Mole C. A previously approved plan called for the launch ramp to be established at Mole B despite safety concerns raised by boaters and harbor officials.

The prospect of shifting the planned boat launch ramp to a new location within King Harbor comes amidst a whirlwind of changes in Redondo Beach during the past few months.

Former Mayor Steve Aspel, who supported CenterCal’s plan to redevelop King Harbor, was ousted in the most recent election. The CenterCal proposal itself was stifled when Redondo Beach voters also approved Measure C, a ballot initiative restricting the scope of waterfront development within the city.

Voters also elected local boater Nils Nehrenheim to the dais several weeks later. The combination of Nehrenheim’s election, Aspel’s loss, Measure C’s passage and the ballot box win of newcomer Todd Loewenstein helped established a referendum of slow growth advocacy on the Redondo Beach City Council.

The Loewenstein-Nehrenheim bloc prevailed in the first major waterfront/ boating debate of the reshuffled City Council. The council voted 2-1, with an abstention, to direct city staff to hold off on responding to a California

Coastal Commission request for more information on Redondo Beach’s Mole B application.

Redondo Beach will also revisit the debate of where the planned boat launch ramp should be placed as the June 13 council vote called for two public hearings to address safety findings and provide input on the optimal location for a boat launch ramp.

Council member Christian Horvath suggested the city should instead take a more cautious approach since there might still be questions of whether Mole C would indeed be a viable alternative for a boat launch ramp.

“There’s an enormous amount of support for Mole C. What we don’t know is if Mole C will also meet the letter of the law,” Horvath said, adding the city has already received extensive public input on Mole C via previous workshops.

Horvath was the sole abstention in the final A boat launch ramp was never among the amenities offered at Redondo Beach’s King Harbor. Boaters instead had to rely upon vote.

Mayor Bill Brand – who a boat hoist to place their vessels into the water.

Building a sense of community around boating Story and photo by Capt. Nicole Sours Larson

only through our pilothouse windows, our neighbors regularly walk their dogs. Chatting with them about their charming and sometimes silly dogs is a wonderful icebreaker. I’ve made many good friends through our mutual love of animals.

Children and grandchildren also are terrific “connectors,” stimulating easy conversations over kids’ interests, activities and antics.

Many marinas throw periodic parties, barbecues, mixers and other meeting opportunities. Chula Vista Marina, in San Diego’s South Bay, takes their community-building several steps further.

Aware that many of Chula Vista Marina’s tenants are newbie boaters or new arrivals to the area, Dockmaster Mike Sullivan places a premium on helping slip holders build skills, scheduling

Most boaters regard their boats as a welcome escape from everyday lives, sanctuaries from the extreme partisanship and anger swirling around us. Many of us have also created networks of close friends centered on our boats and marinas.

But what happens when those networks start to fragment and that oncestrong sense of community suddenly seems fragile?

If your marina is anything like mine, there’s been enormous turnover this year, as people move in and out of boating, buy larger or smaller boats requiring new slips or relocate far away. For me that’s meant the loss of several dockside neighbors whose friendships I’d come to rely on.

That’s led me to ponder how to rebuild a much-cherished sense of community in an increasingly transient and unsettled world and to ask: what are good ways to meet new people and develop fresh relationships?

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA — Fireworks will be seen and heard all over Southern California on Fourth of July.

The Independence Day celebrations are especially spectacular over the coastal cities, beaches and harbors.

At the risk of stating the obvious, boaters are advised to arrive before dark, have a lifejacket for each person onboard, use appropriate navigation lights, keep a lookout for other watercrafts and stay a safe distance away from the barges.

Everyone with pets aboard and onland, ensure they are tagged, safe and secure. Many pets, especially dogs, flee in panic due to the booming fireworks resulting in the busiest time of year for animal shelters.

Make it a great Fourth of July by keeping everyone safe and planning ahead. The Log has compiled a list of July 4th celebrations from San Diego to Santa Barbara.

Each year thousands of kids benefit from our program!

Oceanside Harbor will have a new manager as the venue’s former administrator, Paul C. Lawrence, retired from his post in mid-June. The city is currently searching for a successor to manage San Diego County’s northernmost harbor.

Paul Lawrence retires as head of Oceanside Harbor City appoints an interim and announces search for a new harbormaster.

By Parimal M. Rohit OCEANSIDE — Changes are afoot at Oceanside Harbor as the waterfront’s most recent manager retired after three years on the job.

Former Oceanside Harbor Manager Paul C. Lawrence officially ended his tenure at San Diego County’s northernmost boating venue June 16, opening the door for a new marine professional to succeed him in managing the waterfront.

City officials appointed an interim manager to over see harbor operations until the city announced a permanent hire.

The job announcement, which will remain open through July 14, states the new Harbor Division Manager would report to the city’s Public Works department and earn between $92,688.00 and $118,212.00 annually.

Lawrence’s successor would be responsible for overseeing harbor operations, maintenance and administration, according to the job posting.

The new harbor manager would also manage properties, develop long range plans and programs, implement strategies based upon local and national legislation and monitors compliance with establish policies, among other responsibilities.

The successful candidate must have at least three years of supervisorial experience and five years experience overall in the public or private sector.

He or she must have demonstrable ability to “successfully perform the duties of a Harbor Division Manager,” the city job advertisement stated.

Prior marina management experience is not necessary but “highly desirable,” the advertisement continued.

Lawrence was hired as Oceanside’s harbor manager in August 2014. He was previously at Dana Point Harbor.

Clarifying a policy on personal watercraft vessels (kayaks and standup paddleboards) and improving the

harbor’s water quality were two of Lawrence’s successful initiatives at Oceanside Harbor.

The city installed bilge pumpout stations and multiple trash skimmers throughout the harbor in an effort to improve water quality.

Harbor officials also accepted bilge pads, oil, filters and antifreeze/coolant fluids at the landside office to help keep such elements out of the water.

The current summer cycle could determine if new personal watercraft policy proves to be beneficial.

“I think what will happen is they’ll do educational stops when they observe people not following the ordinance,” Lawrence said, adding the new policy focuses on educating all harbor users on traffic flow and safety.

He added a work plan for development of dock conditions is currently in development. Some boater service building upgrades could be in store as part of the work plan.

The future of Helgren’s Landing was another hot topic during Lawrence’s tenure. Oceanside’s City Council extended the lease for Helgren’s Landing in mid-April after a contentious battle over the venue’s future.

City officials had initially agreed to permit a local group to take over the landing and establish a sportfishing landing and marine education center at Oceanside Harbor. The city, however, changed direction several months later and allowed Helgren’s Sportfishing to remain at the landing through November.

Lawrence, who is retiring to spend time with family, said he is leaving Oceanside Harbor in good shape.

“I think things are in quite good order. The facility conditions are quite good,” Lawrence said.

Lawrence’s starting salary in 2014, according to city documents, was $123,120. He spent more than a decade at Dana Point Harbor prior to assuming his role in Oceanside and served on California Coastal Commission’s Clean Marina Harbor Advisory Committee.

No timeline was announced as to when a permanent hire would be made.

Avalon is planning to ban polystyrene in six months. Avalon City Council discussed implementing a city ordinance at the June 6 meeting. The ordinance would prohibit food service establishments from using products made out of plastic foam, otherwise known as Styrofoam.

Plastic foam not only pollutes our ocean, but is consumed by fish and wildlife. Trash of this nature threatens the marine life and the aquatic environment.

A comment from the community and a councilmember called for quicker action.

However six months tends to be the

Stop stealing monies How about California government not stealing money, thereby not need to take boat owners write-off? A court ruled …

California is obligated to return $331 million that it took from a fund designated to help troubled borrowers but instead used to plug holes in the state’s budget.

“Commies are at it again” The Commies are at it again. They are just pushing productive people out of the state. Soon it will be the Ultra Rich and the peon welfare class. The Democrats are truly idiots in action.

“Taxation with representation” I’m a Conservative however, the idea of getting a tax “loophole” for calling a boat a “second home” is not something I agree with. The article definitely presents a lot of ‘alternate facts’, such as the average boat purchase price being $16,517. Obviously this would not be considered a live aboard boat. There is one area of taxation that is definitely a huge rip-off for all income levels: The tax that slip renters have to pay annually. This is a “property tax based on the valuation of the slip/space, and is imposed on whomever occupied that slip on January 1st of each year. I can’t

norm for new city ordinances, Community Services Director Dan Huneke mentioned.

The time frame also allows for businesses to go through already purchased and preprinted product, Huneke pointed out, as well as prepare for the first of the year.

City Manager David Jinkens expressed his appreciation Businesses in Avalon might be banned from selling Styrofoam products to its customers. The City Council has been contemplating a to the Catalina policy against plastic foam products and could consider a proposal soon.

Island Chamber of Commerce President and CEO, Jim Luttjohann, having this ordinance go into effect at recyclable or biodegradable products. for helping to get the information out their next meeting. The plastic foam “This could be the start of many there to the business community. ban would go into effect on Jan. 1, 2018 more opportunities for a greener city,” Avalon City Council will vote on requiring all eateries to use reusable, Huneke stated.

imagine how this outrageous tax has been accepted by the hundreds of thousands of slip renters. I know it has been challenged in the past, however, it never received much, if any publicity---thus it died on the vine. This is no different than a home or apartment renter being taxed on the value of his rental. Also, even more egregious, the slip renter could be there on Jan. 1 and move out the next month, and will still be taxed for the whole year. What about the ‘Guest slips’? Which one of them gets taxed? Talk about “taxation without representation”. This is what the ‘Tea Party’ was all about. Apparently we are a different culture today---and, simply accept this sort of thing.

Moving on out People are leaving California and it’s all because of JERRY MOONBEAM BROWN. He has ruined this state, first it was companies leaving and now it’s the people leaving because of the stupid ass way he is running this state, he is taxing the people to death; they have no choice but to go to greener pastures. I know of some people that have left, I have a good friend that moved to Idaho and he loves it. I will be going there to see him and check Idaho out for myself. Like my good friend, we both live on a small pension and AS. Our money is fixed, and we don’t get raises so we can’t live with all of these taxes. So me and my wife and my boat might be moving to Idaho.

By Parimal M. Rohit WATSONVILLE, California — Two Southern California boating organizations were among the nonprofits awards $1,500 grants by West Marine to promote youth activities on the water, it was announced June 15.

King Harbor Youth Foundation (KHYF) in Redondo Beach and Orange County’s Newport Sea Base were awarded grants as part of West Marine’s 2017 BlueFuture awards.

West Marine, in all, awarded grant funding to 25 organizations across the country, each receiving $1,500. The grants are without restrictions, meaning each nonprofit group could use the funds as it sees fit.

KHYF offers several youth sailing programs, including a summer camp to introduce younger boaters to kayaking, paddleboarding and sailing. The foundation also offers sailing lessons, and a summer race clinic for youth.

Newport Sea Base, which recently merged with SoCal Scullers, meanwhile, actively promotes sailing activities to adolescent and pre-teen youth. Offerings include: courses in aquatics, boating and sailing; group and family outings; and, merit badges in emergency preparedness, environmental science, fish and wildlife, oceanography and others.

Also receiving grant funding were The 5 Gyres Institute and WILDCOAST, environmental organizations based in Los Angeles and San Diego, respectively.

The 5 Gyres Institute, for example, helps battle plastic pollution in our oceans, while WILDCOAST operates conservation initiatives and programs.

Grants are often used to expand program offerings, fund scholarships, maintain staff and purchase equipment, according to a statement issued by West Marine.

IN MEMORIAM Doug Peterson, designer of America’s Cup-winning yachts, dies San Diego Yacht Club member reportedly succumbs to cancer.

SAN DIEGO — Doug Peterson, a prominent yacht designer who was to be inducted into America’s Cup Hall of Fame later this year, has died. He was 71.

Peterson reportedly died June 26 – just as news of Emirates Team New Zealand’s America’s Cup victory over ORACLE TEAM USA spread around the world.

Peterson’s death was confirmed by San Diego Yacht Club, of which he was a member, Associated Press reported.

The yacht designer was part of the design team of two America’s Cupwinning yachts – America3 helmed by Bill Koch in 1992 and Team New Zealand’s Black Magic in 1995.

“We’re sad to share the passing of one of our longtime members, Doug Peterson, known as one of America’s most accomplished yacht designers of his generation,” a post on San Diego YC’s Facebook page stated.

San Diego YC announced Peterson’s planned induction into the America’s Cup Hall of Fame in March. He would be the

Doug Peterson

club’s fourth member to be inducted into the hall, joining Malin Burham, Dennis Conner and Jack Sutphen. The induction ceremony was scheduled to take place aboard the USS Midway in October.

His Hall of Fame induction was based on Peterson’s successful yacht designs and accomplished sailing record.

“Doug Peterson is known as one of America’s most accomplished yacht designers of his generation,” the San Diego YC announcement of Peterson’s planned Hall of Fame induction stated.

“Peterson has produced countless successful designs, ranging in size from 8 meters to over 30 meters.

“For decades, sailors have excelled racing boats designed by Peterson under International Offshore Rule, International Measurement System, Midget Ocean Racing Conference, and International Rule Measurement System. Especially after the early 1970s, sailors who raced a Peterson design boat in any class would have a good chance of winning,” the yacht club’s announcement continued.

Peterson’s sailing resume, according to San Diego YC, included major regatta wins and multiple world and national titles.

Of course it was his design of two America’s Cup-winning yachts that

earned Peterson the most praise.

“Peterson was the lead designer behind Team USA’s 1992 boat America3 and Team New Zealand’s 1995 America’s Cup boat Black Magic, which became one of the most powerful and prevailing boats in America’s Cup history,” San Diego YC’s announcement of Peterson’s Hall of Fame induction stated. “Black Magic was successful because Peterson included a narrow beam and positioned the mast further aft than traditional America’s Cup yachts at the time. It was also the way he approached the design of the boat, by thinking about the boat as a whole rather than separate parts, which made the design different from previous America’s Cup boats.”

Other designs earned him acclaim as well, what with Peterson’s boats performing well at San Diego YC’s Lipton Cup. His designs earned San Diego YC’s “Yacht of the Year” five times between 1975 and 1992 (Vendetta, Cadenza, Tin Woodsman, Dust ‘Em and America3).

The website boatinternational.com features 35 of Peterson’s boat designs – including his most recent work, Jongert 3200P. The 105-foot sailing yacht, built in 2015, featured an aluminum hull and has a top speed of 12.6 knots.

Peterson is reportedly survived by his four children.

Emirates Team New Zealand defeated ORACLE TEAM USA to win the 35th America’s Cup in Bermuda. The win gave New Zealand its third-ever America’s Cup victory; the Kiwis also won in 1995 and 2000.

Emirates Team New Zealand dethrones Oracle Team USA as America’s Cup champion Dominating performance by Kiwi team gives Peter Burling second Cup win in four years.

By Parimal M. Rohit BERMUDA — Oracle Team USA failed to defend its America’s Cup trophy Emirates Team New Zealand handily defeated the American sailing team en route to the country’s first win of the world’s oldest trophy in international sport since 2000.

Emirates Team New Zealand won the 35th edition of America’s Cup, held

this year in Bermuda, on June 25; the Kiwis, who edged out Oracle Team USA, will now defend its championship during the 36th America’s Cup in 2019.

Peter Burling, who helmed Emirates Team New Zealand, won his second America’s Cup trophy; he also won the 2013 Red Bull Youth America’s Cup in San Francisco.

Oracle Team USA started Race Nine with a lead during the first mark, but Emirates Team New Zealand dominated the rest of the way, crossing the finish line 55 seconds ahead of the Americans.

The Kiwis won eight races overall, compared to just one for Oracle Team USA. Burling, 26, said winning the America’s Cup is a dream come true.

“We’re taking the America’s Cup back home to New Zealand,” he stated.

“We’ve had to go through some incredibly tough times to get to this point. It has been an incredibly tough path to get past the rest of the challengers and then Oracle Team USA.” Skipper Jimmy Spithill helmed Oracle Team USA. America’s Cup, which is competitive

yachting’s biggest prize, was first contested in 1851. The schooner America won the first race.

Team New Zealand previously won back-to-back America’s Cup trophies in 1995 and 2000, but lost its bid for a third win in 2003 to the Swiss.

Switzerland defeated New Zealand at the next America’s Cup in 2007. The Swiss, however, failed to defend its trophy in 2010, when Alinghi 5 lost to the United States.

Oracle Team USA was unable to keep the America’s Cup trophy in the United States.

Youth sailors from Balboa Yacht Club earned top honors at the 2017 U.S. Youth Match Racing Championship at Fort Worth, Texas.

Orange County team edges other locals, competitors from Texas and East Coast.

By Parimal M. Rohit FORT WORTH, Texas — A Balboa Yacht Club sailing team skippered

by Corona Del Mar’s David Wood finished atop the leader board at the 2017 U.S. Youth Match Racing Championship at Fort Worth Boat Club. The racing series, which netted the winning team a Rose Cup trophy, was held June 14-18 in Fort Worth, Texas.

Wood’s Orange County based team capped off the five-day racing series with a come-from-behind win to claim the race’s Rose Cup. His teammates were Max Brennan of Newport Beach, Jeffery Petersen of Santa Ana and Catherine Reynolds of Costa Mesa.

The winning team actually started in the middle of the pack during the first stage’s round robin competition. Wood and his crew, however, began making up ground in the knock out stage, defeating a team helmed by San Diego’s Jack Reiter, 3-0, on June 17.

Sunday’s semifinal featured Wood’s Balboa YC team defeating the top-ranked team helmed by Porter Killian (Newport Beach), 3-1.

The final featured Wood’s team versus Jack Parkin (Riverside, Connecticut) and his teammates from Milton, Massachusetts (Christina Sakellaris) and Houston, Texas (Robbie Nicholls and Wiley Rogers).

Balboa YC’s team won the final, 3-0.

Nearly two-dozen passengers aboard Western Pride out of Davey’s Locker in Newport Beach braved windy conditions on June 12 to catch a decent load of bass, sculpin, rockfish and sheephead.

“Had to deal with 20+ knots of wind and the current going up in it,” the boat’s captain reported on Facebook. “Didn’t set the world on fire but we managed some quality fish.” The 22 anglers caught 8 sand bass, 2 calico bass, 7 sculpin, 9 rockfish and 5 sheephead.

Southern California fishing news

Changes could include landing fee increases and alter revenue collection from lifetime licenses.

By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO — The impending state budget could prove worrisome to California’s anglers and fishers as officials propose significant changes to a fishing preservation fund.

California could abolish its Lifetime License Trust Account, transferring any funds there to the Fish and Game Preservation Fund (FGPF).

Landing fees could also be changed to an 11-tier system, where “higher value species” are assessed higher rates.

California’s finance department staff stated the fee rate change would “[take] advantage of existing collection mechanisms and would not result in significant department costs.”

State officials hope a proposed increase of commercial landing fees would yield $12.4 million in revenue.

“This [eleven-tier system] proposal

… [would require] fisheries that are the highest value per pound pay the highest rate,” a state finance department analysis stated. “All fisheries would pay a higher rate than status quo under the proposal resulting in an average overall rate of 5 percent based on the three year historical average value of all California fisheries.

“Implementing the proposed ElevenTier System is expected to generate an average of $13.3 million in landing fee revenue annually, an increase of $12.4 million over current levels,” the state finance department analysis continued. “This proposal more appropriately assigns the costs of managing commercial fisheries to those participating in the industry.”

The preservation fund, according to the state’s Department of Finance, is the largest funding source for the Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Funding from the FGPF supports the Fish and Game Commission, fisheries management, lands management, law enforcement and wildlife conservation.

A Department of Finance analy-

sis of the proposal to restructure the preservation fund stated revenues have remained stable but costs are increasing – thus requiring major changes.

“While revenues in the FGPF have remained relatively stable in the last ten Fishing advocacy groups claim proposed changes to the Fish and Game Preservation Fund amounts to a raiding of money, directly harming angling years, there has been significant volatility in interests. the General Fund, in budget years when revenues have been “This has contributed to the erostrong, the department has received sion of the fund’s reserve,” the finance General Fund augmentations for critical department’s analysis continued. activities such as law enforcement, conMarko Mlikoton, the executive direcservation planning, and marine fishertor of California Sportfishing League, ies management,” finance department said the state’s proposal amounts to a staff stated in an analysis of proposed raiding of the FGPF. changes to the preservation fund.

DFW determines no action necessary for white sea bass fishery Stock assessment shows species is not overfished and total catch rate is below limits.

By Parimal M. Rohit SMITH RIVER, California — A stock assessment of white sea bass shows the fishery is not in danger of exceeding its catch quota and the species is not being overfished.

California’s Fish and Game Commission endorsed an annual review of the white sea bass fishery during its two-day June meetings at Smith River, California. The annual review – submitted to the commission by the state’s Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) – was formally endorsed June 22.

DFW recommend the state take no action in the management plan’s five

areas of concern as an analysis of the fishery demonstrated the fishery was not in threat of exceeding quotas or being overfished.

The 2015-16 total catch for the white sea bas fishery was 343,439 pounds, significantly short of the 1.2 million pounds total optimum yield for the species. The reported total catch represented 29 percent of the mandated catch limit.

DFW’s analysis also reported there was “no new information on age composition, age at maturity, or age at recruitment” and the “recreational and commercial fishery length-frequencies showed no significant change that would indicate a problem in the fishery.”

The recreational white sea bass fishery appears to be maintaining a steady catch rate without jeopardizing the species, according to DFW staff

and the White Sea Bass Scientific and Constituent Advisory Panel, or WSSCAP. “In the recreational fishery, the number of fish caught in the 2015-2016 season increased 21 percent when compared to the previous season,” DFW staff stated in its annual review. “The average weight of fish caught in the 2015-2016 season increased 22 percent when compared to the previous season. The WSSCAP and the Department agreed that the overfishing criterion for the recreational fishery was not met.”

DFW also reviewed whether white sea bass catches were reported in or from Mexico. Commercial and recreational fishers face a different set of regulations when fishing for white sea bass south of the border.

“California commercial fishermen are prohibited by Mexican law to fish in the territorial seas of Mexico, and no

landings of white sea bass from Mexico

by California commercial fishermen were reported in 2015-2016,” DFW stated in its annual review. “Recreational anglers may fish in Mexico under the authority of a Mexican sportfishing license. During the 2015-2016 season, Commercial Passenger Fishing Vessel log book data reported 145 white sea bass taken in Mexico, a decrease of 25 fish from the reported 170 taken in the prior season.”

The white sea bass fishery has slowed down in recent years. The fishery reached a peak of more than 827,000 total pounds reeled in during the 201011 season. Numbers steadily declined each year, however, reaching a low of 259,646 in 2014-15.

Commissioners accepted the DFW annual review as part of its consent calendar.

Federal fishery revokes proposed “hard cap” rule for drift gillnets

By Parimal M. Rohit WASHINGTON, D.C. — An attempt to establish strict limits on a largemesh drift gillnet fishery in California was scrapped after the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) determined the proposal was unwarranted at this time.

Both federal agencies reviewed a formal request by the Pacific Fishery Management Council (PFMC) to implement a two-year rolling hard cap on observed mortality and injury of certain protected species within the drift gillnet fishery.

NMFS and NOAA announced June 12 the rule proposal would be withdrawn.

“Under the proposed regulations, caps would have been established for five marine mammal species and four sea turtle species. When any of the caps were reached, the fishery would have been closed for the rest of the fishing season and possibly through the following season,” the Federal Register Notice of the rule proposal stated.

“The length of any closure would have depended on when during the two-

year period a cap was reached.”

Supporters of the proposed hard cap rule, according to a NOAA analysis, stated such an action “would increase protection for non-target species and incentivize industry to practice clean fishing techniques.”

Those opposed to the hard cap proposal stated NMFS and NOAA will not be pursuing hard caps on the large-mesh drift gillnet fishery. the ruling, if adopted, “would have minimal conservation benefits while imposing protected species at the cost of signifiunnecessary economic hardship.” cant adverse economic effects to the Opponents also argued the NMFS participants in the fishery if and when “underestimated the economic effects” closures would occur,” NOAA staff of the proposal to drift gillnet parreported in its analysis of the hard cap ticipants and the incidental catch of proposal. protected species within the fishery “NMFS projected that the proposed was “adequately managed under the regulations would have led to a DGN Marine Mammal Protection Act ... and fishery closure only once in the past Endangered Species Act (ESA).”

mandatory gear standards and seasonal closures. California issued about 150 permits when the fishery was established in 1980. Permitting peaked in 1986, with 251 vessels allowed to operate within the drift gillnet fishery.

The number of issued permits has steadily declined since. NOAA reported fewer than 80 permits were issued in recent years.

“Fishing activity is highly dependent on seasonal oceanographic conditions that create temperature fronts which concentrate feed for swordfish.

Because of the seasonal migratory pattern of swordfish and seasonal fishing restrictions, nearly all of the fishing effort in recent years has occurred from August 15 through January 31 off the California coast,” NOAA officials stated in the analysis of PFMC’s rule seeking.

Vessel revenues from the drift gillnet fishery’s ex-vessels, according to NOAA, declined from $3.79 million in 2001 to about $454,000 in 2015.

“Despite a temporary increase in participation and ex-vessel revenue from 2004 through 2007, a general downward trend exists for both,” NOAA staff stated. Both vessel participation and fishing effort (measured by the number of sets) have declined over the years. Industry representatives attribute the decline in vessel participation and annual effort to regulations implemented to protect marine mammals and endangered sea turtles.”

Tight lines — By Parimal M. Rohit Oceanside Senior Anglers name new president What’s Up: A 450-member senior fishing club in San Diego County announced it has a new president.

Anglers’ new president.

Bottom Line: Oceanside Senior Anglers caters to recreational fishers age 50 and older. The club holds meetings at Oceanside Senior Center the first Tuesday of each month; meetings begin at 9 a.m.

Cusack stated he would continue to advance the club’s initiatives, which include community service, youth fishing and military trips. The club also provides new fishing gear for members of the San Diego Boy and Girl Scouts.

“Our club will continue to grow and we’ll be adding more charter fishing trips to our schedule, spending more time on the water,” Cusack said in a released statement.

Monthly meeting generally feature a

guest speaker. Members often participate in fishing trips, industry tours, conservation efforts and legislative advocacy.

Oceanside’s Youth Fishing Program receives donation What’s Up: Friends of Oceanside Parks donated $1,000 to Oceanside’s Youth Fishing Program, it was announced June 22.

Bottom Line: The donation benefitted 15 youth who went on a deep-sea fishing trip out of Oceanside Harbor on June 20. Capt. Joe Cacciola of Sea Star Fishing Charter was able to offer the fishing trip at a discounted rate thanks to the donation.

The youth anglers reportedly reeled in rockfish and sea bass on their trip; a five-foot Thresher shark was almost pulled in over the rails, city officials stated.

Summer was off to a great start for anglers aboard Stardust out of Santa Barbara, what with one ocean whitefish complementing 179 rockfish and 17 lingcod during a June 22 three-quarter-day trip in near Santa Cruz and Santa Rosa islands.

NOAA declares bocaccio fishery as rebuilt Mary Nishimoto photo

Darkblotched groundfish also declared as recovered.

By Parimal M. Rohit SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA — West Coast species of bocaccio and darkblatched groundfish were declared as rebuilt, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

Both species, NOAA’s West Coast Region office confirmed June 19, were rebuilt ahead of schedule.

NOAA declared bocaccio as an overfished species in 1999. The federal agency hoped the species would be rebuilt by 2022, but conservation efforts apparently helped NOAA reach its goal five years earlier.

“The combination of sound science and well-designed management policies were very effective in turning things around, but it also involved many challenging years for the fishing fleet in adapting to lower harvest levels,” Barry

The bocacchio fishery was one of two fisheries declared as recovered.

Thom, regional administrator of NOAA Fisheries’ West Coast Region, said in a published statement.

Lingcod, canary rockfish, cowcod, Pacific Ocean perch, widow rockfish and yelloweye rockfish were among the other fisheries with rebuilding plans.

“Rebuilding plans remain in place for the three remaining overfished species: cowcod, Pacific Ocean perch, and yelloweye rockfish,” NOAA staff stated.

“All three are on track with their plans, with cowcod estimated to be rebuilt by 2020, Pacific Ocean perch by 2051, and yelloweye rockfish by 2074.”

SoCal and Baja’s #1 Source for Fresh and Saltwater Fishing

SALTWATER OCEAN FISHING REPORT

By Terrence Berg 976-TUNA.com GENERAL UPDATE: The fishing throughout Southern California has been fair to good during the final days of spring 2017, but the dock counts hasn’t really shown what’s happened in local offshore fishing. The reality is the California Bite is jugged with fish, both gamefish and baitfish. The variety is also phenomenal. Anglers are still likely to catch everything from bluefin tuna running from 20 to 200 pounds, yellowfin tuna to 40 pounds, yellowtail from 5 to 30 pounds, the three B’s (bass, bonito to 5 pounds and barracuda), along with hammerhead, thrasher or mako sharks. There is also still a large volume of white sea bass in the northern Channel Islands, and no one is talking much about the halibut action. Rockfish have been excellent just about everywhere. Anglers are reporting fish everywhere, but finding eager-biting fish (like has been so common the past two seasons) has been difficult. Catches have been more “normal”

for average “good” year. Good numbers of bluefin tuna remain off San Diego (although picky lately). Catalina, Clemente, and Coronado island boats have been reporting 12 to 20 yellowtail per trip, which is good as a historical average.

The calico and sand bass bites have been good, especially if you count the number of sub-legal (14-inch minimum size) fish being landed and released. And then there are improving catches of yellowfin tuna.

SEPTEMBER IN JUNE?: There has been an influx in the number of yellowfin tuna out of San Diego in the past week. Are these local fish responding to warmer water and lots of bait, or is it the leading edge of fish already moving up the coast earlier than normal? The jury is out on that, but they are starting to be more than an occasional catch. In fact, skippers have found themselves in big yellowfin schools when chasing bluefin or yellowtail in the past week. The bluefin and yellowtail are still the dominant species for the San Diego offshore boats.

Vagabond was on a 1.5-day trip out of Point Loma Sportfishing on June 18; the 20 anglers

on board had 14 yellowfin and one yellowtail.

Pacific Queen out of Fisherman’s Landing had 10 anglers on its June 18 overnight trip and landed 10 bluefin tuna. Pacific Voyager out of Seaforth Sportfishing had just eight anglers on a 2-day trip and caught 84 yellowtail, 44 calico bass, 14 barracuda, and 10 bonito. Top Gun 80, on a 2.5day trip out of H&M Landing through June 19, had 24 anglers who landed 126 yellowtail, four yellowfin tuna, and five bonito.

The three-quarter-day fleet has been seeing far few bluefin this week, but the yellowtail and yellowfin are taking up the slack. San Diego out of Seaforth Sportfishing was on a threequarter-day trip June 20 with 14 anglers and landed 24 yellowtail, 21 bonito, 10 calico bass, four barracuda, and one lingcod. A June 19 trip with 21 anglers produced two yellowfin, while the June 18 trip with 27 anglers results in one yellowfin and 53 keeper calicos. Mission Belle out of Point Loma had 12 anglers on a three-quarterday trip June 20 and landed five yellowfin tuna, one bluefin, and two bonito. Liberty out of Fisherman’s Landing had 12 anglers on its June 18 three-quarter-day and landed two yellowfin.
