Port of San Diego establishes design guidelines for Chula Vista Bayfront redevelopment

By Parimal M. Rohit CHULA VISTA — Details of how the Chula Vista Harbor update will fully play out is still being fleshed out, but the Port of San Diego’s Board of Port Commissioners hopes to establish a design mandate for the redevelopment of the South Bay waterfront.

Commissioners, on Feb. 6, approved a set of non-binding guidelines to provide direct private development of a waterfront within the public realm. The non-binding guidelines would, according to port district staff, complement any controlling documents approved for redevelopment of the Chula Vista Bayfront.

“The guidelines focus on overarching concepts and are intended to provide design flexibility [and] are intended to be referenced throughout the design process,” port district staff stated in a report to commissioners.

Port district staff stated the nonbinding guidelines would help improve the aesthetics of Chula Vista Harbor once the Bayfront development is

Overall goals of private development on Chula Vista’s waterfront are the focus of Chapter 3. The planned hotel and convention center development would be included in Chapter 3’s guidelines.

“This chapter focuses on private development improvements. The guidelines in this chapter provide guidance and overall goals on the form of buildings, as well as their relationship to the public realm,” port district staff stated.

“Specific guidelines are provided that address street-wall scale, architectural design and compatibility, landscaping, and overall building placement.

“These private development guidelines encourage unique and creative design yet respect and acknowledge the natural environment, scale, proportion and character of the [Chula Vista Bayfront],” port district staff continued.

The guidelines were established through a combination of public hearings held in late 2017 and stakeholder outreach to the city of Chula Vista and developer RIDA, among others.

Commissioners also extended the exclusive negotiating period with RIDA to Aug. 9.

Gulf of California’s squid graveyard leads scientists into “less-known places” 2C

MONTEREY, California — Our oceans are a strange and unusual place. Dark and mysterious, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) claims less than 5 percent of the ocean have been explored to date. That leaves a whopping 95 percent of the great deep unknown yet to be seen by human eyes. In terms of a peculiar event involving the Gulf of California’s deepwater squid population, some things cannot be unseen — but it may lead to further insightful discoveries.

Researchers at Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) first encountered a seabed off the Gulf of California’s coast with dozens of dead squid, “a squid grave-

Sand dredged from inlets are used to widen shoretown beaches BEACH HAVEN, New Jersey (AP) — Two common problems in coastal areas – eroded beaches, and clogged inlets hazardous for boat traffic – have a mutual solution.

Coastal areas around the country are dredging clogged inlets to make them easier and safer to navigate, and using the sand they suck from the bottom to widen beaches damaged by natural erosion or serious storms.

It’s not cheap – one project in New Jersey will cost more than

yard.” After a frenzied breeding session, the squid die. For other sea creatures, such as starfish, ratfish, acorn worms, sea cucumbers and crustaceans, the dead squid provided an underwater buffet. As the other sea life chows down on the squid feast, most of the squid are consumed within a 24-hour period, which is what makes the graveyard so unusual to scientists since squid carcasses are rarely seen. In fact, scientists know little about the midsize carrion (decaying flesh) of smaller animals because it disappears so quickly.

In the animal world, it’s somewhat common to give one’s life to reproduce, completing a seemingly cruel circle of life. While the squid may die in the last throws of life, it is

not done in vain; according to an 2C article by MBARI, DARK “Although the BKGND squid carcasses attracted plenty of scavengers, the egg sheets seemed relBW atively disturbed.”

$18 million – but it is popular from Cape Cod to Florida, the Gulf of Mexico and along the Pacific coast.

New Jersey has two such projects underway. One is deepening the Little Egg Inlet, one of the widest in the state that has never been dredged. The U.S. Coast Guard last March removed navigational buoys because sand buildup was so severe that no safe channel could be marked.

“This project is designed to have the multiple benefits of restoring beaches that are economically vital for shore tourism and storm protection, while making it safe for boaters to again use Little Egg Inlet,” said David Rosenblatt, an assistant commis-

sioner with the state Department of Environmental Protection.

A smaller project is dredging the Brigantine Inlet between Brigantine and Atlantic City.

Although that waterway is generally used only by small craft, the sand built up there is being pumped to the north end of the island, which was severely eroded by a January 2016 nor’easter. It’s also the area where Superstorm Sandy made landfall in October 2012.

Unlike other dredging projects, such as those from heavily industrialized rivers where bottom sediment may include pollutants, these inlet dredging projects involve clean sand that can easily be transferred ashore.

Concerns that have arisen from inlet dredging include possibly disturbing wildlife habitat, or affecting the shape of nearby shorelines. In the Little Egg Inlet, some conservationists are concerned about destroying nursing grounds for sand sharks.

The San Francisco Baykeeper group, meanwhile, filed numerous lawsuits against California and sand mining companies seeking to reduce the amount of sand removed from the mouth of San Francisco Bay. The lawsuits were filed amidst concerns of sand mining potentially changing the shape of coastlines.

Re: Illegal Charters: Elusive Activity or Lax Regulations?

(Feb. 9-22 issue)

Watch out for pirates Just wanted to take the time to point out that there are legal operations that rent boats and operate charters from dock locations in the Dana Point Harbor.

I own and operate Harbor Boat Rentals and OHANA Sportfishing Dana Point (six-pack charters) in Dana Point Harbor. We are licensed and insured to legally rent and operate six passenger charters through Mariners Yachts.

While I agree that illegal charters should be handled accordingly, I disagree with the viewpoint that anyone operating without a location or from a dock is “rogue” or illegal. Be sure to ask questions about insurance and captains and operators having the proper licensing, and your next rental/ charter will hopefully be safer and much less “rogue.” And by all means ask us who the “rogue” operators are and we will tell you.

It is a small, tight-knit community and we all know who is on the up and up and who are pirates.

Anticipated infrastructure development Glad to see the project move forward. It is a much anticipated infrastructure development.

On a broader scale, I think most Americans are realizing how old our infrastructure has been. So, I kind of agree [with Dan’s statement] that “All my neighbors and friends in San Pedro are looking forward to the new San Pedro Public Market. Not one of them will miss Ports O Call.

Walking the Docks: Educating Boaters for Clean Marinas California’s Dockwalker Program is seeking new volunteers to serve as ambassadors for cleaner waterways.

By Parimal M. Rohit

STATEWIDE — You’d be hard-pressed to find anyone arduously opposed to clean water. Any debate on environmental stewardship often comes down to execution. What role should the state play in advancing environmental policies?

Are boaters capable of pursuing such initiatives on their own? What is the private sector’s role in addressing issues such as boat sewage or marine debris? Can the state’s Dockwalker

Program help provide some answers here?

California’s Division of Boating and Waterways, or DBW, recently announced it is searching for volunteers to join its Dockwalker Program. DBW launched the initiative in 2000 to help raise awareness of best boating practices, particularly as it relates to fuel, marine debris, oil, sewage and trash.

Volunteers – or “Dockwalkers” – walk the docks to distribute boater kits. These kits are handed out or shared at boat launch ramps, boating events or marinas. Each kit delves into various behavioral changes boaters can make to help keep local waters as clean as possible.

State officials hope marinas and yacht clubs will become active participants of See STANDING WATCH page 7

CATALINA BY AIR: Airport in the Sky

By Parimal M. Rohit CATALINA ISLAND — A vast majority of The Log’s readers approach Catalina Island by boat, and for good reason - the island is only 20-some miles away from most Los Angeles and Orange County area docks and launches. The history of aerial traffic to and from the island, however, is both diverse and extensive.

Catalina Airlines was founded in 1946, coinciding with the opening of Airport in the Sky – the island’s new airfield, located 1,602 feet above sea level. Yet air travel to the island had commenced well before the founding of Catalina Airlines and the opening of Airport in the Sky. The first apparent flight to Catalina Island occurred in 1912, when one Glenn Martin flew a seaplane from Newport Beach to Avalon. Martin’s 33-mile flight lasted 27-minutes, reportedly the longest flight over water recorded then.

Since then several air travel endeavors between Southern California and Catalina Island were pursued, including Pacific Marine Airways, Wilmington-Catalina Airline, United Airlines and Avalon Air Transport’s Flying Boats.

Syd Chaplin – half-brother of Charlie Chaplin - also operated an airline to and dorm Catalina in the 1920s.

Airport in the Sky, of course, operates to this day. The 3,250-foot airstrip is located 10 miles from Avalon. The Catalina Aero Club meets monthly and

organizes a fly into the airport.

William Wrigley’s family commissioned the airport, with construction work on the runway beginning in 1940. The bombing of Pearl Harbor in December 1941 caused airport construction, which was almost complete, to be halted.

The incomplete airport was leased to the U.S. government during our involvement in World War II – at the rate of $1 per year. Officials reportedly covered the runway with debris between 1941 and 1945, as to prevent enemy aircraft from landing on the island and using it as a base.

Construction resumed after the war, with the airport officially opening in 1946.

the Dockwalker Program, which is jointly spearheaded by DBW and the California Coastal Commission. DBW recently announced it is currently hosting a series of training sessions across the state to educate volunteers on how to be ambassadors of clean waterways.

More than 1,000 volunteers have signed up to be a dockwalker in the past 18 years, with as many as 150 people actively involved with the program, according to state officials.

Those participating in the Dockwalker Program are also providing assistance to organizations partnering with the state on safety and water quality initiatives, such as Bay Foundation, Lake Berryessa Partnership, the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary and U.S. Power Squadrons.

A release recently published by state officials claimed California boaters must do more than navigate local and regional waterways with safety – they must also engage in best boating practices.

“California has about 2.6 million recreational boats and more than 4 million recreational boaters. It is

The Log • Feb. 23 - Mar. 8, 2018 • 7

important for recreational boaters to not only boat safely, but to also implement sound boating practices. Safety and protecting the environment go hand in hand,” DBW staff stated in a release promoting the Dockwalker Program.

Marinas and yacht clubs participating in the Dockwalker Program would, according to state officials, “receive educational materials and tools to operate a clean boating facility and minimize water quality impacts.”

“This program provides marinas with points towards the Clean Marina Designation and participation in the Dockwalker Program counts towards the nomination of the Club of the Year under the community service category.

In addition, yacht clubs and marinas are essential in spreading awareness directly to boaters,” state officials said in a released statement.

The California Clean Marinas Toolkit, a guidebook publication issued to local boating venues and organizations by DBW, outlines a flexible path for marina operators and yacht club leaders to pursue to maximize environmental benefits.

The guidebook, published in 2004,

does not offer any one-size-fits-all approach to maintaining clean marinas. It does, however, make recommendations for marina management, maintenance and operation.

Recommended strategies include the creation of a clean marina plan or preparing for emergency response.

Boat operations, boat sewage, fish waste, gray water, hazardous waste, marine debris, oil and fuel, stormwater runoff, trash and vessel cleaning are among the suggested topics marina operators should address in their plans, according to the DBW toolkit.

“Not all suggestions made in the guidebook are either necessary or economically feasible at all marinas in California. Factors such as the marina’s size, location, other physical aspects, and local regulations may help to define what is reasonable and appropriate for a specific facility,” the DBW toolkit and guidebook stated. “The fact that a marina does not implement a practice suggested in the guidebook does not mean that the marina is environmentally unsound.”

Developing clean marina standards, however, could ultimately be good for business, according to guidebook/

toolkit.

“Operating a clean marina is not only good for the environment and for boating, it is also good for business,” stated the guidebook/toolkit.

“Whether you manage a publicly operated coastal marina with thousands of slips, or a small privately operated inland marina with little in-water boat storage, improvements that make a marina more environmentally friendly can attract more customers. A clean marina can also save money by reducing costs associated with spill response or waste-disposal, and reduce potential liability associated with environmental incidents.”

Dockwalkers, ultimately, are ambassadors for clean and safe boating. It would be interesting to determine the exact correlation between the state’s clean marinas initiatives through the Dockwalker Program and tangible improvements to water quality – both locally and statewide.

Yet raising boater awareness through dockwalkers is definitely a positive step in the right direction.

More information on the Dockwalker Program is available online at BoatingCleanandGreen.com.

TAKE ACTION There are several training workshops on tap in the next few weeks, where you can find out more about the Dockwalker Program and whether it would benefit your local marina.

Training sessions will be held, between Feb. 24 and May 12, in 12 cities statewide – including five in Southern California: Oxnard (March 30); Marina Del Rey (March 31); San Diego (April 14); Newport Beach (April 28); and, San Pedro (May 12).

The seven Northern California training sessions are at Antioch (Feb. 24), San Rafael (March 3), Vallejo (March 17), Redwood City (March 25), Oakland (April 5) and Sacramento (May 5).

Couple’s boat sinks in Gulf of Mexico and boating community responds MADEIRA BEACH, Florida — A couple who recently lost everything after the boat they poured their life savings into sank off the Florida coast were unprepared for the outpouring of kindness they received in the wake of a tragic event.

Tanner Broadwell, 26, Nikki Walsh, 24, and their pet pug, originally from Summit County, Utah, escaped injury when their boat, Lagniappe, capsized after hitting an unidentified object, possibly a sandbar, earlier in the month.

However, news coverage on the event blew up, completely catching the couple by surprise. As a result, the couple broke their crowdfunding campaign goal in three days and received a flood of support from family, friends and community members who offered to replace their boat.

Rescued sea turtle, Booga, is released off Florida Keys

See page 4 for details

MARATHON, Florida (AP) — A young loggerhead sea turtle rescued from a fishing trap line has been returned to her ocean home off the Florida Keys.

Booga, named after the commercial fishing boat whose crew rescued the 125pound (57-kilo) reptile in late September, was released Saturday at Marathon’s Sombrero Beach as hundreds of Keys residents and visitors watched.

The crew found the turtle tangled in a fishing trap line.

Booga’s right rear flipper was amputated due to the severe entanglement injury. Additional treatment included broad-spectrum antibiotics, vitamins, laser treatment, physical therapy and a healthy diet of squid and lettuce.

Turtle Hospital officials said that even

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A new invasive species has turned up in Lake Superior, the bloody red shrimp.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said researchers found a single specimen of the tiny shrimp in the Duluth-Superior harbor last summer.

There are now documented findings of bloody red shrimp in all of the Great Lakes.

The recent ruling means federal court will sit on the sidelines as Redondo Beach and CenterCal flesh out their legal differences in California Superior Court.

CenterCal reportedly filed a federal lawsuit against the city of Redondo Beach in March 2017, arguing its due process and property rights were violated when the city’s residents approved a ballot initiative. The initiative, known as Measure C, was a slow growth proposal challenging CenterCal’s plans to revitalize King Harbor and the Redondo Beach waterfront.

Helpful reminder of respecting harbor rules As a Marina Manager, I loved this article!

Obviously, if a safety issue needs to be addressed, or a boater needs to be reminded/informed of marina or harbor rules, we want to know ASAP. I think most boaters are very conscious of their neighbors, though we have few squabbles here and there. We simply remind those boaters that all want to come to relax on the water, and to treat other boaters with respect.

Port of San Diego receives public input for mobility study What Happened: The Port of San Diego held a community workshop, Feb. 21, to receive input on the district’s Harbor Drive Multimodal Corridor Study. Port district staff hopes the study would ultimately lead to improved mobility along Harbor Drive, specifically between the Tenth Avenue Marine Terminal near Downtown San Diego’s Fifth Avenue Landing and the National City Marine Terminal, just north of Pier 32 Marina.

Fifth Avenue Landing and Pier 32 Marina – two marinas serving recreational boaters – are included within the jurisdiction of the study, according to port district staff.

What’s On Tap: The legal battle will likely remain in California’s Superior Court for now, focusing in land use issues. CenterCal would be able to appeal any Superior Court decision to the federal level, assuming the real estate development company believes any of its rights remain violated due to the lower court’s ruling.

New Hyatt Hotel and restaurant to begin construction at Channel Islands Harbor Casa Sirena Hotel and Lobster Trap Restaurant will be revamped as part of redevelopment.

OXNARD — In 2016, the California Coastal Commission approved the complete replacement of Casa Sirena Hotel and Lobster Trap, two long closed, dilapidated properties on the Channel Islands Harbor waterfront.

Lessee Brighton Management will soon receive approval to begin grading the properties—razing the buildings and most of the parking lot areas and constructing new foundations.

“This work may start as soon as May this year,” Ventura County Harbor Director Lyn Krieger stated.

The lease option agreement between Brighton and the county calls for roughly 5,000 square feet of restaurant, a 205-room hotel, and public meeting space situated within the hotel property.

Also, the planned construction includes a 10-foot wide, 1,500-foot long waterside promenade, bike racks, rentals and charging stations for those with electric cars. The new Hyatt Hotel

will be able to accommodate guests taking shuttles from local airports and train stations. Brighton will also build all new parking lots, and a replacement restroom facility for boaters at Peninsula Yacht Anchorage.

“This has been a long time coming, and will provide a wonderful new amenity for guests and local residents, increasing access to the harbor. There will be improved parking and the new promenade will allow harbor visitors to

stroll from the Channel Islands Bridge to the tip of the Peninsula,” Krieger said.

The hotel will include an upstairs harbor view bar open to the public.

In addition, the adjacent Peninsula Yacht Marina will be revamped during this time period. Temporary restroom facilities will be on site for use by slip holders.

“We are excited to see this come to fruition, and expect the Hyatt Hotel and restaurant will be completed sometime in 2019,” Krieger said.

The investment cost of the project is expected to reach between $35 million and $50 million.

Ventura County officials have long hoped a revamp of Casa Sirena Hotel would spur a larger redevelopment of the Channel Islands Harbor.

Casa Sirena Hotel has been abandoned and dilapidated since 2009, and plans to demolish the building have been discussed for years.

The county ultimately hopes to transform the area into a dense visitorserving waterfront.

California formally recognizes role of Latinos in environmental conservation Sacramento hopes improving access of recreational activities on the water could spur ethnic group’s environmental participation.

By Parimal M. Rohit

SACRAMENTO — A legislative initiative seeking to recognize the role of California Latinos could play in outdoor recreational activities and environmental conservation was quietly voted on and enrolled into state law by Assembly members and State Senators.

The proposal seeking to “recognize the role of Latinos in protecting and preserving the land, water and wildlife” officially became law, Feb. 7.

Assembly members approved Assembly Concurrent Resolution 137 (ACR 137) by a 65-0 vote on Jan. 12; the legislative action cleared the State Senate by a 37-0 vote on Feb. 5.

ACR 137, introduced by Assembly member Eduardo Garcia, identified Latinos as “the largest ethnic group in California,” making up about 39 percent of the state’s population.

“Increased access to outdoor recreation opportunities for Latino families and youth fosters outdoor appreciation

as well as a commitment within the Latino community to conservation,” language of ACR 137 stated. “The legislature … recognizes the role of Latinos in protecting and preserving the land, water, and wildlife of the United States … [and] supports and encourages the inclusion and meaningful engagement of Latinos and all Californians in environmental protection and conservation efforts.”

The resolution ultimately encourages Latinos to be more active in preserving and protecting the water, while also participating in activities and initiatives raising awareness of conservation efforts, according to a State Senate legislative analysis.

Specific initiatives of how California’s largest ethnic group could become more involved in conservation or environmental programs were not outlined in the resolution. Nor did the resolution delve into Latino involvement in boating or fishing activities (or any other recreational activity, for that matter, other than promoting outdoor interests in general).

Groups in favor of the resolution included Latino Outdoors, Earthjustice, Surfrider Foundation and Trout Unlimited.

Recreational Boating and Fishing Foundation (RBFF), interestingly enough, was not one of the groups listed as supporting or opposing ACR 137.

RBFF is the national nonprofit organization behind initiatives such as Take Me Fishing and Vamos a Pescar.

Erik Engebretson, with the agency since 1991 and started at the “bottom,” shares career highlights and future goals.

By Devon Warren

SANTA BARBARA — Erik Engebretson might have started on the “bottom,” but he recently received a promotion to the top, earning himself the role of Santa Barbara’s Harbor Patrol Supervisor.

“I literally started working for the city from the ‘bottom’ – diving under Stearns Wharf,” Engebretson tells The Log. Engebretson, who only recently started his new position as supervisor, has been working for the city since 1986 when he took a part-time job as a diver. Before starting this job, Engebretson pursued his passion, which seemed to always have some oceanic element.

“Anything ocean related is close to my heart,” he said. “I enjoy fishing, diving, surfing, SUP and currently have some interest in kite boarding.”

The new Harbor Patrol supervisor secured a short stint in the commercial diving field for Oceaneering and Diving Systems International shortly after graduating from Santa Barbara City College with a specialization in Marine Diving Technology. Though Engebretson loved offshore work, he felt it was taking a toll on his family life so he decided to pursue options that would allow for more balance. That led him to working shared part-time positions as a SCUBA Diving Instructor at Santa Barbara City as well as the diving position for Stearns Wharf.

“I really wanted to be working on the water in a profession that provided a wide variety of duties and responsibilities,” Engebretson said. “Most of all, I wanted a career that was rewarding and allowed me to help people.

Nothing is more rewarding than knowing you made a difference in someone’s life.”

A new opportunity presented itself in 1991 and it slightly changed Engebretson’s course.

“I eventually accepted full-time employment with the City’s Waterfront Department as a facilities worker and then tested and was offered a position with the Santa Barbara Harbor Patrol,” he told The Log. Engebretson, during the first year in Harbor Patrol service, encountered an event that really stuck with him.

Upon being asked about a particular case or story that stood out, Engebretson responded, “There are so many, but the 1998 Wharf fire is close to the top. I administered CPR and used an automatic defibrillator (AED) to successfully revive a patient suffering from the cardiac arrest, a seizure patient fell from the Wharf into the water on my second day of work to name a few. There have been such

a wide variety of unique calls that it’s hard to go into all of them without starting my memoirs.”

Another unexpected event occurred in 2012, one involving a horse named William.

“You are probably familiar with the horse, William, who became spooked and ran into the ocean? Apparently, he had enough of being a show horse and decided to swim far out to sea,” Engebretson recalled. “It was a very unusual call Erik Engebretson was recently promoted to Harbor Patrol Supervisor after having worked with the Santa Barbara Harbor Patrol since 1991. and the responding Harbor Patrol Officer, along with other responding agencies, did an amazing job successnavigating my way through this new gestions from the public and hope to fully reuniting William with his owner. chapter in my career,” Engebretson maintain a cohesive and positive atmoAnyone can lead a horse to water, but said. sphere in an area that harbors many only the Santa Barbara Harbor Patrol What comes across most in unique individuals and personalities,” can lead it back out.”

Engebretson’s character is his desire he told The Log. While those who frequent the to continue keeping Santa Barbara Among his goals, he hopes to waterfront would likely be more Harbor safe for the community in years “maintain a highly trained public safety familiar with the harbor patrol and to come. agency that strives to provide the best the tasks they take on, one thing that “I remain open to constructive sugservices to the boating public.”

Engebretson understatedly relates is just how many varied responsibilities they have that maintain and keep the Wharf safe for locals and visitors alike.

“I wish I could count how many times someone said to me ‘I didn’t know Harbor Patrol did that!’” Engebretson said. “Our 24-hour agency has 11 sworn Peace Officers (Boating Safety Officers) trained as Emergency 3201 Marina Way Medical Technicians, marine firefightNational City ers, hold Merchant Marine Officers CA 91950 619.477.3232 Licenses (USCG 100 Ton Captains office@pier32marina.com License), Ocean Rescue and hold Red pier32marina.com Cross Lifeguard Certificates or USLA Lifeguard Certificates.”

For boaters, Engebretson has this advice to stay safe on the waters: “Be safe. You owe it to your family and friends, and others as well, to use good judgment and boat responsibly. Carry mandatory USCG-approved safety equipment, PFDs, and visual distress flares. File a float plan with someone.

A training officer once told me, ‘Just when you think you know it, remind yourself you don’t. It was great advice that I use on the water and in other aspects of my career and personal life.”

State Lands Commission challenges Pres. Trump’s offshore drilling plan “Not a single drop of oil” would touch California, Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom warned Command-inChief.

SACRAMENTO — A Battle Royale between the largest state in the union and the White House has created an environment where California’s policymakers are borrowing a page from the NIMBY playbook. The issue state legislators are angling to keep out of California’s backyard: offshore drilling.

Pres. Donald J. Trump’s administration, in January, announced a plan to explore new offshore drilling opportunities in federal waters attached to the Outer Continental Shelf. California’s political leadership immediately responded back with, “Not In My Backyard!”

California was not alone in challenging Trump’s offshore drilling plan – the governors of Oregon and Washington, for example, joined Gov. Jerry Brown in stating they don’t want new oil and gas exploration leases issued in federal waters off the Pacific states.

The issue is murkier in Maine, however, where the state’s two senators oppose Trump’s plans but their governor is taking the lead in advocating for offshore drilling.

Those opposed to offshore drilling argue its bad for the environment and there are cheaper and safer energy alternatives to explore. Proponents, conversely, say pursuing new offshore drilling opportunities is necessary to provide jobs and for the United States to establish itself as an energy powerhouse.

Jumping into the fray is the California State Lands Commission, which has taken a hard-line stance against offshore drilling.

The prospect of offshore drilling in federal waters has legislators and policymakers in California pushing back. Pres. Trump’s plan to issue new oil and gas leases had the State Lands Commission taking a stand against the pursuit of offshore drilling opportunities off the California coast. The plan also received opposition from the California Coastal Commission.

State Lands Takes a Stand A Feb. 7 letter sent from California’s State Lands Commission to the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management in suburban Washington, D.C., explained why the most populous state in the union would challenge Trump’s plan to expand offshore drilling opportunities in federal waters.

“The commission opposes lease sales [off the California coast] because it creates the potential for catastrophic peril to California’s ocean and marine environment, economy and natural resources,” the Feb. 7 letter, addressed

to Kelly Hammerle, Bureau of Ocean Energy Management’s national program manager, stated. “The commission also urges [the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management] to schedule additional public meetings along the coast of California so that the public can weigh in on the proposal to open up vast swaths of its coast to oil development.”

Pursuing offshore drilling opportunities on the Pacific Outer Continental Shelf is an outdated plan, commissioners added. Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke, in outlining Trump’s plan to pursue offshore drilling opportuni-

ties as part of an effort to ramp up the nation’s energy independence, stated the Pacific Outer Continental Shelf could be home to six new oil extraction locations.

“The premise of the proposed leasing program is that extracting oil and gas from the nation’s ocean benefit the economy, but tapping into the ocean for oil development is folly – the fossil fuel era is ending, and California is not interested in the boom-or-bust oil economy,” commissioners stated in their letter to Hammerle.

The Interior Department stated it would actively pursue public comment on its five-year plan to pursue offshore drilling opportunities, but the State Lands Commission pointed out only one meeting was schedule for all of California.

“The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management scheduled one public meeting, in an inland area, for the public to weigh in on the proposal to open up significant areas of its coast to offshore drilling. The bureau should have additional public meetings in coastal communities in California so that local voices can be heard.”

Public Hearings That hearing was held Feb. 8 in Sacramento. In all 23 public hearings on Trump’s offshore drilling plan were already held or scheduled – most of which were or will be held in noncoastal communities. All but one See OFFSHORE DRILLING page 13

Public hearings will continue through March 8.

Zinke, in January, announced federal plans to pursue offshore drilling opportunities on the Outer Continental Shelf.

The Interior Secretary stated the United States must pursue such opportunities in order to achieve “energy dominance.”

“Not all areas are appropriate for offshore drilling, and we will take that into consideration in the coming weeks,” Zinke said in his Jan. 4 announcement of the offshore drilling plan.

“The important thing is we strike the right balance to protect our coasts and people while still powering America and achieving American Energy Dominance.”

The Interior Department’s draft plan stated as many as 47 lease sites – including six in federal waters off the California coast – could be pursued.

Offshore Drilling’s Cheer Team Nearly 90 billion barrels of undiscovered and recoverable oil, in addition to nearly 330 trillion cubic feet of

undiscovered and recoverable natural gas exists within the U.S.’s Outer Continental Shelf, according to the Outer Continental Shelf Governors Coalition.

The coalition, which is made up of seven governors, supports Trump’s policy proposal to explore offshore drilling opportunities. One the members is Maine Gov. Paul LePage, who favors the pursuit of offshore drilling opportunities despite vocal opposition of the plan from his state’s two U.S. senators.

“Rising global demand for energy requires that the United States proactively pursue development of American resources – both traditional and renewable – to minimize dependence on foreign energy,” an OCS Governors Coalition policy position on offshore drilling plans stated. “Furthermore, states must have a more active voice in determining whether areas off their coasts are available for energy development.”

Five of the coalition’s seven members – LePage, Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey, Alaska Gov. Bill Walker, Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott – signed off on a letter, dated Aug. 17, 2017, urging the federal government to pursue offshore drilling opportunities.

Exploring offshore drilling opportunities is essential to job creation, energy independence and tax revenues, according to the coalition’s letter.

“Access to offshore energy resources will allow coastal states and communities to realize great economic opportunities,” the quintet of governors stated

LOOKING FOR A NEW HOME PORT?

in the August 2017 letter. “The successful development of the Gulf of Mexico and the initial exploration of Alaska’s [Outer Continental Shelf] demonstrate how responsible offshore energy development can generate many good paying jobs, spur activity in a host of associated industries, and generate billions of dollars in tax revenue.”

Offshore drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, for example, supported about 650,000 jobs, yielded $64 billion in annual Gross Domestic Product and resulted in an estimated $7 billion in revenues for the federal government during fiscal year 2014, the OCS Governors Coalition letter stated.

Bad History in California California, however, is ardent in its opposition to new offshore drilling in federal waters off its coastline.

The State Lands Commission took a stand on offshore drilling toward the end of 2017, when the quasi-judicial state agency voted to end oil drilling and production at Rincon Island in Ventura County.

Greka Energy subsidiary Rincon Island Limited Partnership held a lease on the offshore drilling location since November 2014. The lease was revoked three years later, when the commission, in December 2017, stated it had discovered regulatory violations at the drilling site.

Rincon Island is located in Mussel Shoals, just off the 101 Freeway between Ventura and Santa Barbara.

“The lease relinquishment means the last operational offshore oil drilling and production facility in the Santa Barbara Channel is over and about 1,500 acres of [Rincon’s] interests will be added to the California Coastal Sanctuary,” commission staff stated.

“The commission will take steps to start the plug and abandonment work for the 49 wells on the island and decommission the facilities. The ultimate disposition of the island and the connecting causeway will be determined after further analysis and public input.”

Offshore drilling leases have been banned within California waters; the state has not issued an oil and gas lease since 1968.

Much of California’s opposition to offshore drilling and oil/gas leases stems from a 1969 oil spill in Santa Barbara.

“This catastrophe, from an oil and gas lease in the Pacific Outer Continental Shelf, resulted in the death of nearly 4,000 birds and many marine mammals, including sea lions and elephant seals,” commissioners stated in their Feb. 7 letter. “The Deepwater Horizon spill in 2010 showcased the full force of an oil spill.”

Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, State Controller Betty Yee and Director of Finance Michael Cohen head California’s State Lands Commission.

Newsom, in a Feb. 7 tweet, told Trump, “not a single drop from your new oil plan will ever make landfall in [California].”

New Prop. 65 warning will be placed on all new California boats Marine manufacturers will be responsible for providing expanded product warnings beginning August.

By Devon Warren

Safe Harbor Levels According to a statement released by the National Marine Manufacturers Association, “If your product contains

Prop 65, which was enacted through the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, will enforce expanded product warnings beginning August 2018. Manufacturers, including those of marine-related products, will be responsible to provide these warnings to consumers.

Shutterstock.com photo

STATEWIDE — Browsing through the website p65warnings.ca.gov, there are hundreds of chemicals, products and even places chronicled potentially containing side effects that could lead to cancer, birth defects or reproductive system damage. One of the “products” found on the alphabetically categorized list is diesel engine exhaust, which is a known emission of some watercrafts and one main topic that boaters will see in new warnings under California’s Proposition 65.

Prop. 65 was enacted through the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986. As this proposition evolved, it required the state to maintain a list of chemicals known to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity. Businesses and manufacturers are also responsible for informing anyone within California’s borders about potentially harmful chemicals or products.

While some materials in the home, such as asbestos and carbon monoxide, are commonly known to cause harm, boaters may not be aware some toxic chemicals are used to manufacture or maintain their boats. The breathing in of diesel fuels, for example, is generally recognized as dangerous, but California’s new regulations under Prop. 65 will make it easier for citizens to access the studies and facts of why these chemicals, emissions or byproducts are so deadly.

New regulations for Prop. 65 will take effect as of Aug. 30. Many of us have probably encountered the warning on the side of a carton of cigarettes that lets others know smoking can cause cancer or, worse, smoking while pregnant could cause birth defects to an unborn child. Part of the new regulation, in addition to the old procedure, states the new language must identify the chemical or chemicals that could be deadly as well as print a warning symbol. The warning labels could be more in-depth, by stating the actual chemicals known to cause cancer or reproductive harm, or the warning could be more basic by just stating the harm and then a link to the Prop. 65 website with a more detailed account of the chemical.

Labels would only apply to boats manufactured after Aug. 30, 2018.

or emits a chemical on the Prop. 65 List, and if the exposure is either above the ‘no significant risk level’ for cancer or above the ‘no observable effect level’ for reproductive harm, you must provide a warning.”

A warning is required unless a chemical’s exposure is low enough to be deemed safe, posing no significant threat or risk to a person’s health.

There are two major groupings that California’s Prop. 65 categorizes chemi-

by 1,000 as an added precaution, which results in the NOEL. NSRLs and NOELs make up the Safe Harbor Levels.

Diesel Engine Exposure Warning & More For boaters, know any warnings about recreational vessels will be stated in either the manufacturer’s manual.

Capt. Nicole Sours-Larson reported in

“Operating, servicing and maintaining a recreational marine vessel can expose you to chemicals including engine exhaust, carbon monoxide, phthalates, and lead, which are known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. To minimize exposure, avoid breathing exhaust, service your vessel in a well-ventilated area and wear gloves or wash your hands frequently when servicing this vessel. For more information go to www.P65warnings.ca.gov/marine.”

For cancer, the no significant risk level (NSRL) would be a 1 in 100,000 chance of developing cancer after being exposed for 70 years.

As for surveying the effects of birth defects and reproductive harm, No Observable Effect Level (NOEL) “is determined by identifying the level of exposure that has been shown to not pose any harm to humans or laboratory animals.” This level is then divided

a Dock Lines column it is good practice for boaters to become more familiar with the manuals that come with their vessels. By reading the manufacturer’s manual, a boater may learn something new about their vessel in addition to learning about any associated dangerous practices, gases or chemicals. If the warning is not displayed in the manual, a tag must be attached to the boat’s helm printed in type no smaller than 12-point.

The diesel engine of a vessel is

known to cause cancer or birth defects when exposed to the fumes. As many experienced boaters and captains may know, it’s important to address any engine-related issues in a well-ventilated area.

If boaters have any questions about products or chemicals, it is simple to visit the website at p65warnings.ca.gov to check. When searching “diesel,” 16 results are offered back on the website including components of diesel emissions and diesel engine exhaust. By pulling up the page on diesel engine exhaust, readers will find the studies and organizations associated with the listing, possible exposure sites, fact sheets allowing readers to learn more about the terms, websites, photos and a plethora of other learning resources aiding the general public with gaining knowledge.

While it serves the boating community to gain knowledge about what goes in to manufacturing their vessels, the ingredients used in any chemicals and the byproducts their boats emit, this issue will immediately affect marine manufacturers most. Manufacturers failing to provide notices could see fines as much as $2,500 per violation per day, which could add up to extremely costly fines depending on how many items without warnings are produced. The California Attorney General’s Office is responsible for enforcing Prop. 65, as well any district or city attorney.

Harbor Patrol receives protective gear, while Edison seeks a grant for desalination projects.

By Devon Warren

AVALON — Harbor Patrol receiving protective gear by the Public Agency Risk Sharing Authority of California (PARSAC), repairs to harbor equipment and Southern California Edison’s plans to re-apply for a grant funding desalination projects were among the many topics discussed during the Avalon City Council’s Feb. 6 meeting.

Harbor Patrol Protective Gear Harbormaster, J.J. Poindexter, recalled moments when Avalon Harbor Patrol fought fires in nylon jackets and short shorts.

“The day and age of doing that kind of stuff is over,” Poindexter stated at the City Council meeting.

Avalon Harbor Patrol will no longer have to face situations such as those without updated equipment thanks to a grant by PARSAC.

Waterfront Spotlight: Avalon Harbor

Long time public figure to still remain involved as a consultant.

By Catherine French

VENTURA — Lyn Krieger has decided to retire from her post as Channel Islands Harbor Director, after serving the people of Ventura County for more than 21 years.

Krieger began her career as Harbor Director in 1996, when she was hired to be the director of the newly formed Ventura County Harbor Department.

Krieger previously spent 15 years in the private sector and 7 years as deputy city manager for the city of Stockton.

“I am retiring, but I will continue to do limited post-retirement work for the harbor to advise regarding projects critical to the harbor’s future,” Krieger said. “I want to be able to see through some very important projects that I have been working on.”

These projects include the construction of the new Hyatt Hotel and restaurant on the harbor’s peninsula, the complete revamping of Fisherman’s Wharf, and the on-going need to obtain federal funding needed to dredge the sand trap and harbor entrance, which replenishes sand at Port Hueneme beach and Naval Base Ventura County.

As harbor director, the day-to-day

job oversees management of more than 320 acres of land and water, including 2,150 boat slips, 31 leaseholds, Harbor Patrol, fuel and recycling operations, a seasonal lifeguard program and conducts leasehold negotiations and enforcement.

The work includes development of plans for new and replacement facilities, including hotels, restaurants, commercial centers, apartment complexes, marinas, and boatyards and sportfishing operations. Krieger also oversees Silver Strand and Hollywood beaches on behalf of the county.

“Lyn has done a remarkable job running one of our most challenging departments,” Mike Powers, County Executive Officer, said. “Channel Islands Harbor is a public treasure that serves our local business partners, residents from throughout Ventura County, and visitors from across the nation. Lyn has put into place a solid foundation for the Harbor which will allow it to continue serving these businesses, residents and visitors for many years and generations to come.”

During her years as harbor director, Krieger has been instrumental in returning the harbor to financial stability. In addition to her success at securing federal funding for the dredging projects, she has increased public access to the harbor through the addition of 1,500 feet of waterfront promenade, four new restrooms, and a new

public boat launch facility.

Krieger also initiated Ventura County’s Junior Lifeguard Program, which serves 250 youth every summer and offers more than 60 scholarships through the Boys and Girls Club. She also created the harbor-side bench donation program, which resulted in more than 60 high-quality benches for public use along the water’s edge.

Throughout her career, Krieger has been successful in redeveloping the commercial side of the harbor.

She brought in large projects like the Hampton Inn, Toppers Pizza restaurant, replacement buildings at

the Marine Emporium Landing, the Maritime Museum, and the Channel Islands Harbor Boating Center.

“Lyn’s expertise is recognized locally, statewide and nationally,” Powers said. “Despite serious national economic setbacks which impacted the business side of the harbor, Lyn has shown remarkable leadership as she worked with a diverse array of government agencies, organizations, advocacy groups and homeowners to maintain the Channel Islands Harbor as one of the most beautiful places in the county.”

The Harbor Department director’s time on the waterfront also included some struggle. Ventura County and the city of Oxnard have been angling to redevelop portions of Channel Islands Harbor for more than a decade now.

However the Great Recession of 2008, disputes between the city and county, and an arduous public review process has delayed the redevelopment.

Krieger is set to retire in March; a competitive nationwide recruitment for her successor is planned. The Ventura County Board of Supervisors, coincidentally, reportedly voted to allow Krieger to remain a part-time employee with the Harbor Department, allowing her to finish some of her responsibilities. Ventura County Star reported she would earn $93 per hour as a part-time employee – while also claiming a pension.

Harbor Commissioners vote to forward proposal for permanent year-round anchorage in the Turning Basin to City Council.

By Devon Warren

NEWPORT BEACH—Newport Beach Harbor Commission voted unanimously to review a proposal making the anchorage in the Turning Basin permanent year-round. Next steps include forwarding the proposal to the City Council for consideration.

Commissioner Ira Beer mentioned that the demand for the anchorage is there and that there is a benefit to making the anchorage in the Turning Basin permanent.

The public in areas surrounding the Turning Basin as well as stretching down to Lido Village were surveyed and only one written complaint had been received. In the email, it was stated that there were some concerns about noise from passengers and other issues, but overall it was a mostly supportive tone, Commissioners William Kenney and Paul Blank stated. Comm. Chair Kenney went on to read the email at

the Harbor Commission meeting on Feb. 14.

A few of the notable complaints brought forth in the email were that the anchorage might block the way of safe navigation, issues with enforcement, noise, light pollution, sewage and waste products, and that it may interfere with events such as the annual Christmas Boat Parade.

Before the details of the email had been revealed, Comm. Beer read his alternations to the proposal, which mostly considered all points that had been Newport Beach Harbor Commission has prepared and revised a proposal concerning a permanent anchorage in the Turning a concern.

Architectural firm has eyes set on building bridge across Marina del Rey channel Pedestrian walkway and bicycle path would trek over harbor entrance.

MARINA DEL REY—Boaters going in and out of Marina del Rey might soon have a bridge to navigate under, as an architectural firm plans to build a pathway structure across the channel at ocean’s edge.

Abramson Teiger Architects released renderings of what the white spiralthemed pedestrian and bicycle bridge, would look like - and the first look of the firm’s plans indicate boaters would easily be able to navigate under the massive structure. The bridge would be at the outer edge of Marina del Rey, where the harbor meets Santa Monica Bay and the Pacific Ocean.

Initial plans state the structure, dubbed “LALA Bridge,” would be 1,760 feet long as it connects Marina del Rey to Playa del Rey. Both ends of the bridge meet on a beach and near waterfront housing.

The architectural firm, on its website, explained the bridge would allow a broken pathway to be made whole.

“The Harbor in Los Angeles’ Marina Del Rey is the largest man-made small craft harbor in the world, which is a valuable resource if you are a boater.

Unfortunately for a cyclist or pedestrian, the Marina breaks the existing pathway connecting the North and South route,” the firm stated on its website.

“Cyclists and pedestrians who want to experience the Los Angeles urban coastline must make a lengthy detour around the Marina, hindering the quintessential LA experience of cycling or walking along the Santa Monica Bay. To solve this problem, we are propos-

LALA Bridge could span the harbor entrance of Marina del Rey, connecting the beachfronts of two Westside communities just north of LAX. A sailboat could be seen clearing under the bridge.

ing a new pedestrian and bike path that bridges over the harbor entrance,” the firm continued.

The project team would consist of Trevor Abramson and Michael Lindell.

No other details were immediately available as to when it would be completed or how much the bridge would cost to build.

News reports indicate the civic process on the bridge is currently nonexistent - the published renderings are merely a discussion starter on behalf of Abramson Teiger Architects.

Abramson Teiger Architects released a batch of renderings to show how its plans to build a bridge across Marina del Rey’s harbor entrance would both connect pedestrians and allow for boating activities to continue without barrier. The rendering here show LALA Bridge from a pathway, looking west, on the Playa Del Rey side of the harbor entrance.

State funding available for public agencies to keep waterways clean Cities, counties and port districts can now apply for Division of Boating and Waterways grants.

Parimal M. Rohit

SACRAMENTO — The Division of Boating and Waterways (DBW) is now accepting grant applications for the disposal of abandoned and unwanted vessels and law enforcement safety equipment. A total of $4.25 million in funding from the Abandoned Watercraft Abatement Fund (AWAF) and Boating Safety/Enforcement Equipment (BSEE) grant programs is

available to local public agencies statewide. Applications will be accepted through April 30.

AWAF and BSEE both help improve safety on California’s waterways and alleviate the issue of abandoned vessels, according to DBW staff.

Numerous abandoned and derelict vessels are a pervasive environmental and public safety problem in coastal and inland waterways. DBW staff considers such vessels to be an eyesore and an environmental hazard. Last fiscal year, DBW provided $2.75 million in AWAF funding and $1.5 million in BSEE funding to local public agencies to help alleviate the problem.

The division recently hosted workshops for each program to guide

new applicants and returning grantees. Email Joanna.Andrade@parks. ca.gov for more information about the workshops.

California’s AWAF Program helps with the removal, reduction and prevention of abandoned recreational vessels and marine debris on the state’s waterways. Grant recipients must have jurisdiction over navigable California waterways.

Private businesses cannot apply for a grant. However, they may work through a local public agency that is participating in the AWAF Program to remove abandoned vessels on their private property, Vessel Turn In Program (VTIP) to surrender vessels if they have titles of ownership and/or remove haz-

ardous marine debris. View Program Information BSEE grants, meanwhile, are available to local government agencies demonstrating a need for boating safety and law enforcement equipment pursuant to the application assessment criteria. Funds are available to local law enforcement agencies to purchase patrol boats, engines and personal watercraft, search and rescue, patrol and diving equipment. These competitive grants are intended to augment existing local resources and not to fully fund boating safety and enforcement.

California Coastal Commission hopes process will help update its non-regulatory recommendations for adaption.

By Parimal M. Rohit

STATEWIDE — The California Coastal Commission plans to spend the next few weeks interacting with the public at large on updating the quasi-judicial agency’s sea level rise adaptation policy.

The clock on a 30-day public review period of the commission’s Residential Adaptation Policy Guidance Update – a document outlining how to prepare for predicted sea level rise – could start soon. Commission staff anticipates the public review process on the sea level rise policy document could be released in late February or early March.

Coastal Commission staff hopes the public review process would help them update the Draft Residential Adaptation Policy Guidance document it released in July 2017. The revised document, which will go through its second public review period, could be in front of the full commission for a vote in May or June.

The sea level rise-themed Residential Adaptation Guidance policy, according to the Coastal Commission, is intended to be a set of

interpretive guidelines, not a document of regulations.

“This guidance … is intended to assist local governments in planning for sea level rise adaptation,” the draft document’s introduction section stated. “This guidance provides a more in-depth discussion of sea level rise adaptation policies specifically related to residential development, and it provides examples of policies that cities and counties can consider for use in their communities.”

Fred Hall Show returns to Central and Southern California Bakersfield to host first of three outdoor expositions; Long Beach show opens doors March 7.

By Parimal M. Rohit

LONG BEACH — The arrival of March means it’s Christmas for Southern California’s outdoor enthusiasts, as the Fred Hall Show returns to Bakersfield, Del Mar and Long Beach.

Central California hosts the first of three Fred Hall Show events in March. Doors for the Bakersfield show open March 2; the show will continue through March 4. The exposition is officially known as the Fred Hall Central Valley Sports Show.

The 800-pound gorilla in the room is the Fred Hall Show in Long Beach, which runs from March 7-11 at the city’s downtown convention center and arena.

Del Mar will host the final Fred Hall Show of 2018, with anglers, boaters and other outdoor enthusiasts expected to pack the local fairgrounds between March 22 and 25.

The Fred Hall Show in Long Beach will feature acres of fishing tackle, boats and other outdoor gear, products and services.

All three Fred Hall Shows are hailed as the “ultimate outdoor experience.”

The Long Beach iteration is the “granddaddy of them all,” celebrating its 72nd year come March 7. Del Mar’s show, which will be held at Del Mar Fairgrounds just north of San Diego, is celebrating its 41st year.

Fred Hall’s Central Valley Sports Show has also been around for about 40-some years – but is a relatively new addition to the Fred Hall lineup.

San Diego Yacht Club will host the upcoming Helly Hansen NOOD Regatta, March 16-18. This year’s regatta celebrates its 30th anniversary and will feature hundreds of sailors from around the world competing against each other.

Helly Hansen NOOD Regatta celebrates 30-year anniversary San Diego Yacht Club and Coronado Yacht Club will host the second race in the series of North America’s longest running one-design sailing event.

By Devon Warren

SAN DIEGO — The Helly Hansen National Offshore One Design (NOOD) Regatta will return to San Diego, celebrating 30 years of sailing, and hosted

by San Diego Yacht Club and Coronado Yacht Club. Sailing World magazine launched the one-of-a-kind event in 1988.

This year, the second of the regatta

series in San Diego will take place Mar. 16-18.

The NOOD Regatta, an annual event and North America’s longest running sailboat racing series, is a three-day, one-design racing affair. In one-design racing, identical boats set sail in an endeavor to accumulate the fewest points of the competition. The pointgiving system is based on the finishing position in each race.

Hundreds of sailors – local, regional and national – gather for their chance to win top marks in more than 10 classes.

Competitors will contend to earn a spot at the Helly Hansen Caribbean NOOD Championship Regatta, hosted

by Sunsail in the British Virgin Island from Oct. 21-26, for the title of Overall

Winner.

Skipper Argyle Campbell of Newport Beach took home the top honor during the NOOD San Diego Regatta as Overall Winner in 2017, sailing with his team aboard Rock n’ Roll, prevailing in the Etchells class.

According to the Notice of Race, “The regatta is open to any boat that is either: a) an active member of a recognized class association for entry in this regatta’s One-Design classes or; b) a boat that meets the criteria established for this regatta by the class coordinator for entry in a level class.”

All official entry forms must be received by Mar. 5; late applications are accepted solely at Sailing World’s discretion.

Fees for entry are $100 for up to 19 feet; $140 for 20-26 feet; $150 for 27-30 feet; $160 for 31-35 feet; $175 for 36-40 feet; $185 for 41 feet and over.

After the completion of the race, prizes will be awarded categorized by class at San Diego YC. Helly Hansen, a manufacturer of professional-grade sailing gear, began in 1877 by a Norwegian sea captain is the title sponsor for the fourth consecutive year.

California Maritime Academy looks to defend Harbor Cup trophy Port of Los Angeles’ invitational regatta brings intercollegiate sailing to L.A. Yacht Club.

By Parimal M. Rohit

SAN PEDRO — Three days of intercollegiate sailing returns to Los Angeles Yacht Club as the Port of Los Angeles hosts the 2018 Harbor Cup here in San Pedro, March 9-11. California Maritime Academy, the regatta’s host school, took first place honors in the 2017 iteration of the regatta and looks to defend its title this year.

The Harbor Cup is only open to invited schools; last year’s regatta featured 10 schools competing against each other – Cal Maritime, South Florida, College of Charleston, U.S. Coast Guard Academy, Maine Maritime Academy, USC, University of Santa Barbara, U.S. Naval Academy, Oregon State and a team from Ireland.

South Florida finished last year’s race in second place, followed by Charleston, U.S. Coast Guard Academy and Maine Maritime.

All teams compete on the water in Catalina 37s; fans will be able to observe the regatta from provided spectator boats. Each team must comprise of eight crewmembers.

First race begins at 1:30 p.m., March 9; teams will also take to the water

starting at 11:30 a.m. on March 10 and 11. The trophy presentation is scheduled after all racing is complete on March 11.

An alumni and parent cocktail party will be held at Los Angeles YC on March 9; the yacht club will also host a dinner and surprise guest speaker on March 10.

Cal Maritime has won six Harbor Cups, including five in a row between 2011 and 2015. Charleston won the Harbor Cup in 2016, edging out Cal Maritime and U.S. Navy.

USC won the cup in 2010; the Trojans finished second in 2009, 2012 and 2014. Maine Maritime won the first two Harbor Cups in 2008 and 2008.

The Port of Los Angeles, Cal Maritime and Los Angeles YC founded the Harbor Cup in 2008. Housing, meals, hosting, visiting team events and other operational elements of the regatta is provided by Los Angeles YC. Requiring all competitors to race in Catalina 37s, according to organizers, provides an equal playing field but also challenges the skills and strategies of each team. Racing in Catalina 37s also allows the teams to race in unprotected waters.

Southern California fishing news

State Assembly proposes ban on lead fishing weights and sinkers Pro-fishing advocacy group claims proposal would be too restrictive, launches petition.

By Parimal M. Rohit

SACRAMENTO — Lead fishing weights and sinkers are the target of a new bill proposed by Assembly member Bill Quirk, D-Hayward.

Quirk’s proposal - Assembly Bill 2787 - would ban the manufacture, sale or purchase of fishing weights or sinkers across the state.

Weights or sinkers would be banned if it contains more than 0.1 percent lead by weight, is less than 50 grams in mass and doe not have a cross section greater than or equal to 2 centimeters in length.

AB 2787 would effectively create a new crime for the manufacture, purchase or sale of banned fishing weights or sinkers.

The California Sportfishing League (CSL), in a released statement, called AB 2787 the country’s “most far-reaching ban fishing tackle.”

CSL officials, in response to AB

2787, launched a “No Fishing Tackle Ban” petition, as part of an effort to mobilize the state’s estimated 2.6 million anglers against the bill. The petition can be found at www.savefishing. com/StopTheFishingTackleBan. Quirk, in his official statement, said the lead ban is necessary to protect wildlife and push for non-lead alternative products.

“In California, we know these weights have killed brown pelicans, herons, loons, gulls, and even harbor seals. Around the world, these weights have caused death in swans, geese, bald eagles and turtles,” Quirk said in his released statement.

California’s recreational fishing lobby, however, questioned whether Quirk’s bill was backed by any scientific findings.

Language of the bill also raises some questions. Is the proposal based on any sort of California-based study, demonstrating threats to wildlife? The proposal itself does not require a study to be performed.

What was the basis of specifically prohibiting the selected size of lead tackle to ban? Where is the threatened wildlife located?

This is certainly not the first time policymakers have tried to ban lead fishing weights or sinkers.

The lack of a required study or associated costs with Quirk’s proposal means AB 2787 could go to a full legislative vote without having to Assembly Member Bill Quirk proposed a bill to ban the manufacture, purchase or sale of lead fishing weights. The proposal met with opposition from recreational pass through an fishing interests.

Assembly member Lorena Gonzalez Fletcher proposes bill to crack down on commercial fishing operations.

By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO — A state legislator from San Diego has proposed imposing strict fines and penalties for commercial fishing operations illegally poaching from Marine Protected Areas (MPAs).

Assembly member Lorena Gonzalez Fletcher (D-San Diego) introduced Assembly Bill 2369 on the legislative floor, Feb. 13. The bill, according to Fletcher’s staff, proposes to penalize commercial fishing operations with a

fine of up to $50,000 and a one-year jail sentence, depending on poaching activity and number of offenses.

Fletcher’s bill specifically proposes an initial fine of $5,000 to $40,000 and up to one year in jail on a misdemeanor conviction if a passenger fishing vessel or party boat is caught and convicted of poaching fish from an MPA. A second violation would result in fines between $10,000 and $50,000, plus up to one year in jail on a misdemeanor conviction.

AB 2369 would also prevent commercial fishing operations to continue operating while under investigation by prohibiting license or permit transfers.

The Assembly member, in a released statement, acknowledged most people in this space aren’t necessarily poach-

ers. However there are exceptions and those breaching an MPA for fishing purposes should be punished, Fletcher said.

“Most fisherman follow the rules, respect our coast and care about keeping our ocean healthy,” the Assembly member stated. “All the more reason why we need to crack down on those who break these rules that are designed Commercial fishing operations who are caught and convicted of to keep our ocean and the wildlife that live there healthy poaching from California’s Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) could face stiffer fines and penalties if AB 2369 becomes law. and vibrant.

San Diego Report

SoCal anglers enjoy spring-like fishing … in February

By Bob Vanian

SAN DIEGO — Southern California anglers have enjoyed a mild winter of weather and the lack of powerful winter storms has kept the water temperatures relatively warm and we are starting to see some signs of springlike fishing emerging in the middle of February. The mild winter has allowed bluefin tuna to remain within 1.5-day range of Point Loma throughout the winter to date.

Last weekend anglers once again found bluefin tuna to 170 pounds biting in the offshore waters outside of Punta Colnett.

Excel out of Fisherman’s Landing fished within 1.5-day range of Point Loma on Feb. 17 and Fisherman’s Landing reported they caught 15 bluefin tuna to 170 pounds.

Mustang out of H&M Landing also fished an offshore 1.5-day trip on Feb. 17 and had 25 anglers catch 125 yellowtails (limits).

Mustang also fished an offshore 1.5-day trip on Feb. 15 and had 10 anglers catch seven bluefin tuna and three yellowtails.

The bluefin tuna have been running from 20 to 170 pounds, with most catches during the past several weeks in the 30- to 40-pound range. Bluefin stops have been coming from stopping on meter marks, sonar marks, kelp paddies, spots of breaking fish and the occasional trolling strike. A good water temperature for locating bluefin has been finding offshore areas where there is relatively warm 64+ degrees.

Boats fishing in closer to the coast at the High Spot area off Punta Colnett have been doing well on a mix of reds, assorted rockfish and lingcod and have also been finding occasional flurries of bonito and

yellowtail action. The yellows have been hard to find during the past few weeks but Pacific Queen out of Fisherman’s Landing did find some yellowtail action. A 1.5-day trip on Feb. 17 with 24 anglers caught limits of rockfish and three yellowtails. Yellowtail have been found by locating meter marks or sonar marks and once located they have been biting best on yo-yoed iron.

The fishing around Los Coronado Islands has been very good for rockfish. On Feb. 18 there was improved surface fishing activity for yellowtail and bonito when San Diego out of Seaforth Sportfishing had a three-quarter-day trip with 23 anglers catch seven yellowtails, 95 rockfish and 9 bonito.

Liberty out of Fisherman’s Landing fished a three-quarter-day trip on Feb. 17 and also found some surface fishing activity. The 17 anglers aboard caught one yellowtail, one sheephead, 160 rockfish, seven lingcod and one bonito.

Private boaters have also been reporting finding a bit of yellowtail and bonito action around Los Coronado Islands with the best zone reported to be in the Pukey Point area of North Island. The occasional yellowtail being reported has been biting from stopping on a meter mark or sonar mark and fishing with yo-yoed iron or with a sardine on a dropper loop rig.

Anglers fishing in Southern California waters need to keep in mind that the seasonal rockfish/groundfish closure remains in effect until March 1. With the closure in effect, most anglers have been enjoying what has been good mixed bag fishing for sand bass, calico bass, sculpin and an occasional halibut.

Some good news on the surface fishing

front along the San Diego County coast: there was a spike in yellowtail activity in the La Jolla region on Feb. 18. New Seaforth out of Seaforth Sportfishing had a morning half-day trip with 22 anglers catching one yellowtail, 12 sculpin, four sand bass and two calico bass. Their best action of the day was on the afternoon half-day trip with 23 anglers catch one sand bass and six yellowtails. Seaforth Sportfishing reported the yellowtails were biting on yo-yoed iron and they were nice sized fish to 30 pounds.

Seaforth Sportfishing was suggesting using 40- or 50-pound test for fishing yo-yoed iron.

Hard bottom and structure spots have been best for the bass and the sculpin.

Productive areas along the San Diego County coast listed from the south to the north have been the Imperial Beach Pipeline, the hard bottom to the northwest of Buoy #3 at Point Loma, the Point Loma Pipeline, the upper end of La Jolla, Del Mar, Leucadia, Carlsbad, the Anderson Pipeline, the Buccaneer Pipeline, the artificial reefs outside of Oceanside Harbor, Box Canyon, the Barn and San Onofre.

Capt. Joe Cacciola of Sea Star with Sea Star Sportfishing and the Oceanside Sea Center reported Chubasco II has been running half-day trips and doing well on a mix of sand bass, calico bass, sculpin and an occasional halibut. Cacciola said the sand bass have been biting best and have been some nice quality sized fish. The best bait has been fishing a strip of fresh frozen squid on a lead head and whole fresh frozen squid. Hookup Baits plastics have also been working well. Productive areas were reported to be the artificial reefs outside of

Oceanside, the Anderson and Buccaneer Pipelines and hard bottom areas outside of Carlsbad and Leucadia.

Productive areas between the Mexico border and Dana Point providing the best chances at a halibut as listed from the south to the north have been the sandy bottom patches outside of the Imperial Beach Pier, the sandy bottom patches outside of the Point Loma Lighthouse, the sandy bottom adjacent to the structure of the Yukon Shipwreck off Mission Beach, the sandy bottom adjacent to the structure of the sunken NEL tower outside of Mission Beach, the sandy bottom off Ponto Beach, the sandy bottom adjacent to the artificial reefs outside of Oceanside and the sandy bottom off the Golf Ball area above Oceanside.

Going further north a couple of the better halibut areas have been the sandy bottom areas off San Onofre and the sandy bottom outside of the San Clemente Pier.

The first day of spring does not arrive until March 20, but we have already been enjoying days of spring like weather and some spring like fishing. I hope you can take advantage of the good weather days and get in on the fun fishing! Keep on fishing and I hope to see you out on the water!

Clockwise: Bluefin continues to bite for 1.5-day offshore trips, such as this one caught by anglers aboard Excel. The Gail Force/Triton Facebook page shared some recent photos from a mid-February lobster hunting trip. Bluefin tuna was also hooked and landed during a Super Bowl excursion aboard Pacific Queen. Anglers aboard Liberty Sportfishing, meanwhile, reeled in some yellowtail.

Fish and Game Commission suspends license for Pacific Star Sportfishing vessel operator suspended five years for poaching.

By Parimal M. Rohit

SACRAMENTO — A sportfishing vessel operator in Southern California had its commercial license suspended for five years after the California Fish and Game Commission determined it committed 18 violations, including poaching within the state’s marine protected area (MPA) network.

The suspension was issued after oral arguments were made at the Fish and Game Commission meeting in Sacramento, Feb. 7.

Pacific Star’s suspension was the result of an undercover operation and vessel boarding in 2013. Officers with the Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) reportedly observed 18 violations of law, including poaching within

an MPA network, exceeding possession limits of several species, illegal take methods and failure to keep accurate fish counts in the logbooks.

The allegations were part of a formal request filed with commission to suspend Pacific Star’s commercial passenger fishing license.

An administrative law judge held a two-day hearing in 2017 to review the case and proposed a two-year license suspension. Probation terms of the proposed punishment could have limited the suspension to 90 days.

The Fish and Game Commission rejected the judge’s proposal and issued the five-year suspension, instead.

Both sides (Pacific Star and DFW) were given 15 minutes to present their respective cases during the Feb. 7 commission meeting.

Pacific Star Sportfishing operated out of Pierpoint Landing in Long Beach and Seaforth Landing in San Diego, according to its website.

Fletcher added current penalties for poaching in an MPA are weak. She cited one case from 2015, where authorities fined a commercial fisherman $220 for setting 200 hagfish traps in a no-take marine reserve.

“These paltry fines are simply the cost of doing business when catch such as spiny lobster can sell for as much as $32 per pound. In contrast, penalties for

DANA POINT — The Dana Point Halibut Derby is about to enter into its final month, yet a lot can happen as the South Orange County fishing event navigates the home stretch.

Several big catches are already on the leaderboard – but will the Top 3 weigh-ins remain unscathed?

Capt. Brian Woolley out of Dana Wharf Sportfishing said this year’s Dana Point Halibut Derby has been “bonkers.”

“Derby board full of super solid fish,” Woolley said. “Derby runs through end of March so that means there is plenty of time left for fish to be caught and the leader board to completely change.”

A 36.9-pound halibut, caught by David Sluder, currently sits atop the leaderboard. Chuck Cardona’s 32.5pound halibut catch, pictured here with Capt. Chad Steffan, is currently

in second place. Both rankings are as of Feb. 12.

The Halibut Derby finishes March 31; the angler who finishes atop the leaderboard walks home with $1,500, while second and third place earn $750 and $500 respectively.

Cher Owens sits in third place with a 32.4-pound halibut catch.

illegal trophy hunting of animals such as deer and elk include fines between $5,000 and $40,000, and up to a year in jail,” Fletcher’s staff said in a released statement.

The Fish and Game Code, Fletcher’s office continued, limits penalties to $1,000 per violation.

Fletcher, who represents the 80th Assembly District, located in southern San Diego County introduced AB 2369 on Feb. 14.
