Larvae: key to Dungeness For SeaDoc, better understanding of population may rest with tiniest By Jacq Zier
Special to the Sounder/Journal
Dungeness crab is one of the most important fisheries in the Salish Sea. In Washington State alone, the fishery has an annual average value of about $20 million. Unfortunately there’s a little more work to do to better understand crab reproduction so we can make sure the population thrives while we serve up this delicious crustacean for dinner. Researchers from SeaDoc and the UC Davis Bodega Marine Laboratory in California are looking for local Dungeness crab larvae, called megalopae, to better understand population dynamics and crab fishery cycles. Ultimately this will help us understand what oceanographic conditions are good for crab catching as well. The SeaDoc Society is looking for help from sharp-sighted beachgoers in finding Dungeness crab megalopae for this study. The tiny megalopae are 5-8

mm in length and look like a very small floating crab about the size of a pencil eraser. They might be spotted swarming near the surface of the water by people walking on beaches or docks. The making of megalopae begins when a female Dungeness crab releases a pheromone before she molts. Dungeness crabs can mate nearly year round, See DUNGENESS, Page 4
The cost of the waterfront clearcut at the former Mar Vista Resort could get quite a bit steeper. The state Department of Ecology announced July 9 that it has leveled $79,000 in fines against owners of the westside waterfront property, Orca Dreams, an incorporated entity formed by Dave Honeywell, for violating state water-quality rules and for cutting down about 80 trees without proper permits. “State law does allow for responsible waterfront development,” said Doug Allen, manager of Ecology’s Bellingham field office. “When the law is clearly violated, however, it’s our responsibility to take action, to protect shorelines and to be fair to property owners who abide by necessary permits.” The amount of the fine consists of two parts, according to Ecology spokeswoman Krista Kenner. The department fined Orca Dreams $55,000 for illegally cutting down 80 trees, along with removing other “significant” amounts of shoreline habitat, and a $24,000 water-quality penalty for starting work at the former Mar Vista Resort without first receiving coverage under the state’s construction stormwater general permit and for allowing discharge of polluting material, including logging slash, soil and organic debris into False Bay. Among the largest and shallowest bays on San Juan’s westside, False Bay is home to a biological preserve and protected marine area managed by the University of Washington. Orca Dreams will have 30 days
2011 Special Award; Second Place: General Excellence from the Washington Newspaper Publishers Association
to appeal either penalty from the date the fines were announced. Kenner said the Orca Dreams could have faced as much as $425,000 in fines due to the lack of permits and because of the extent of damage to the shoreline. Ecology opted not to impose a greater amount because the Honeywells obtained a general stormwater general permit in late December 2013, as the agency instructed in the wake of the clearcut, and have cooperated with Ecology’s investigation, she said. San Juan County authorities previously fined Honeywell and the contractor that clearcut a 1.25acre area of the shoreline, Allen Engel, a total of $3,000 for violating local land-use rules.

San Juans’ shorelines at risk from floods? FEMA agents in the San Juans July 14-18 to update flood risk maps, data The Federal Emergency Management Agency will be in the San Juans July 14-18 to assess local shorelines in an effort to develop more accurate local coastal flood insurance maps for San Juan County. According to FEMA, field work for assessment of the shorelines may include fly-overs of the waterfront, walking of “coastal” areas, collecting sand samples, taking measurements and photographs, and examining coastal structures. Fly-overs would be conducted at an elevation of 300 feet or more, and contract field personnel will carry identification and a letter explaining their work, and private property

Information collected in the upcoming field work is intended to ensure that the agency’s map modeling will more accurately reflect conditions on the ground. Property owners building in a designated flood-zone area are required to derive flood elevations on their own. The new analysis is intended to establish flood elevations for the county’s entire coastline and, according to FEMA, provide more accurate information to property owners, local governments and the flood insurance program. For more detail, visit, www.fema.gov/coastal-flood-riskstudy-process.

Departments have a tough time accepting the entries of exhibitors without a superintendent to keep track of the submissions, Fair Manager Jennifer Allen said. “This is getting to the critical point as the Fair is just four weeks away," Allen said. “This would be a great opportunity for an organization or group to take over these popular exhibits.” Serving as department superintendent isn’t a solo act. You can also sign up to help out in any department during exhibitor entry day,

Taylor tapped for hospital post Hospital commission picks bank VP to fill vacant post on elected panel By Scott Rasmussen Journal editor
What the hospital district needs most at this point in time is a commissioner with a proven track record in the world of finance, according to San Juan Island Hospital District Commission Chairman Dr. Michael Edwards. In large part that’s why, Edwards said, a top executive of Islanders Bank is the newest member of the hospital district commission. The commission voted without dissent June 25 to appoint Mike Taylor of Islanders Bank, vice president and senior loan officer, to fill part of the unexpired term of former commissioner Keri Talbott, who stepped down in late May after a seven-year tenure on the commission. Talbott, whose elected term expires at the end of 2017, cited a pending family move to Alaska for the resignation. “When you have multiple candidates you have to consider the needs of the board,” Edwards said. “What we could use most is a treasurer, someone with a good financial background.” In a 4-0 vote, the commission selected Taylor over former San Juan County councilman Howie Rosenfeld, who, along with Taylor, sought appointment to the vacant position. Talbott’s position will be up for election in November 2015 and Taylor would need to be a candidate and gain voter approval to remain on the commission, Edwards said. Formerly a vice president of Whidbey Island Bank, in Friday Harbor, Taylor joined Islanders Bank in 2011. He has served on the board of directors of several island nonprofits, including The Whale Museum and San Juan Pilots Association.
The Taylor appointment marks the second time in the last nine months that Rosenfeld, a former Town of Friday Harbor councilman as well, came up short in a bid to join the hospital commission. Mark Schwinge out-polled Rosenfeld by roughly 500 votes in the 2013 November election, earning a commission seat with 58 percent of ballots cast. Members of the 5-person Hospital district commisJournal file photo sion, a volunteer post, serve Mike Taylor 6-year terms and oversee operations of the hospital district, whose boundaries encompass San Juan, Brown, Henry, Johns, Pearl, Spieden and Stuart islands. A junior taxing district, the hospital district derives funding from two separate property tax levies, one of which subsidizes emergency and underfunded healthcare for district residents at Peace Island Medical Center, totaling roughly $1.5 million a year; the other funds San Juan Emergency Medical Services, at about $950,000 a year. Of pressing financial concern for the district, Edwards noted that a so-called levy “lid lift” on the primary care levy is due to expire in 2015. In addition, the EMS levy expires in 2016. Voters in February rejected a proposal that would have both raised the EMS levy to the maximum allowed by law and established it as a “permanent” property tax Whether you are sounding levy, eliminating its need for the depths of your soul, Or periodic renewal by voters.
Council to revisit ‘09 ‘lid-lift’ The San Juan County Council was slated to discuss July 14 placing a property tax measure on the November election ballot. The current county property tax level was established in 2009, during an economic downturn. The county reduced staff, mandated furlough days and cut operating hours to offset shrinking revenues and rising costs at that time. The ‘09 ballot measure guaranteed funding for programs such as public health, parks, senior services, and 4-H programs, passing by a wide margin. “Thanks largely to the 2009 lid lift the county’s budget is not in crisis now," county Manager Mike Thomas said in a press release. "But increases in the cost of everything from fuel to building maintenance to employee health insurance have kept our budget tight.” The ‘09 measure is slated to expire in 2016 if not renewed by the voters before then. If the ‘09 levy were to lapse, county property tax revenue would drop by more than $1 million dollars. To maintain the current
level of revenue in future years, the property tax levy would be set approximately 19 cents per thousand dollars of value above what the rate would be without the levy lid-lift. “We’ve worked hard to find efficiencies and keep a tight leash on the cost of providing essential services,” Council Chairman
Rick Hughes said. “But we couldn't take a million-dollar drop in property tax revenue without serious reductions in the type and quality of services we provide.” If the council agrees to proceed with the proposal, a draft of the ballot measure will be available online, at the county website, before the July 31 public hearing.

but only while females are soft-shelled. When a keen male picks up her scent, he lifts her up with his claws – carrying her around for hours sometimes – to make sure he is there the instant she begins to molt. Once she has sloughed off her old shell, he deposits his sperm, which she stores until her 2.5 million eggs are fully developed and fertilized. Afterwards, the male protects his mate from other suitors for several days by carrying her around with him. A female can store sperm for up to two years and may use sperm from one mating event for several batches of eggs. In the following months, the eggs hatch and embark on a metamorphosis through different larval stages. They first resemble small, planktonic shrimp while in the zoea stages. These larvae then undergo months of development in the ocean before they flock to sites close to the shore for a final larval stage known as the megalopae. Megalopae resemble tiny crabs and eventually move to live on the sea floor. It will take three to four more years for these crabs to mature to a harvestable size. A permit is required for megalopae collection, so please call the SeaDoc Society office (360-376-3910) to report

That order follows suit with an earlier restoration order issued by San Juan County. Ecology’s water quality penalty takes into the number of days of unauthorized work, the number of days of operation without a permit and level of environmental impact. The shoreline penalty takes into consideration the amount of damage to the shoreline, and the number of mature trees that were cut, in particular. Because of the level of cooperation by Orca Dreams, Ecology’s Allen said that the agency is now focused on completion of the restoration plan. “It will take decades of growth and maturation for the slope to regain the eco-

Many to thank for parade memories
For the past 14 years we have many to thank for help and support with the 4th of July Parade. Please forgive us if we have overlooked anyone: Danielle Cochran, Thad Cochran, Vern Howard, Doug Bison, Pat O’Day, Jim and Minnie Kynch, Rebecca Parks, San Juan Trophy, Ben Ross, Jerry Jaminson, Al Spry, Pastor Joe, Doug and Paulette Strandberg, Tom Kirschner, The Cordsmen, Randy Clay, Ruben Woodruff, Greg and Marilynn Findley, Neil Tarte, and a very special thanks to all the participants LIN & PAM PEARSON Petro San Juan
Chaos converges at ‘eagles’ corner
We too were also involved in a near-miss head-on collision at the intersection of Roche Harbor Road and Westcott Drive. The nightly situation there is chaotic. Tourists park on both sides of the road, walk to the center of Roche Harbor Road, to get a glimpse of the ritual eagle feed. Many are totally oblivious to the fact that cars need to turn right or left, sometimes quickly to avoid the oncoming car. And let us not forget the children who dart out in front of the cars. This is a lawsuit waiting to happen. I am flummoxed that this practice has been going on for so many years. This area

Salute to the vets of our island pets
Dave and I are so grateful to the wonderful veterinarians that we have on San Juan Island. Thank you for your wonderful care of our loved pet companions. I’m sure we are joined by many in this extension of gratefulness. You give of your time and patience to treat our sweet, little animals, even after hours. Thank you, especially to Dr. Susan Poirot and Dr. Susan Besel, who have always been there for us in emergencies. DOT & DAVE VANDAVEER San Juan Island

We look forward to having the students at the local schools involved in the museum, both in terms of education, and the place where they can display their work for the entire San Juan County to enjoy. In fact, IMA takes a lot of satisfaction in having kept the arts program alive at the elementary school, and was gratified to receive the Community Leadership Award from the Washington Association of School Administrators for these efforts. I’d like to also take the opportunity to thank our early supporters who allowed us to “jump start” this endeavor and to the follow-up efforts that the association with the San Juan Island Community Foundation has afforded, along with other sources of funding, such as the Washington State Arts Commission, PTA, and Women’s Fund. There is still a big task in front of IMA, and we need help from the community at large, but the net result is going to be unbelievably exciting! CHARLIE BODENSTAB San Juan Island

Editorial
Out of the box... maximum wage?
O
ne of the secrets of long life is to look at the upside. Sure it’s great to have phone conversations on Skype, while looking into the eyes of a friend. Particularly when the bad news gets you down (my wife and I call it the “Snooze”). Other hopeful news: the Port and town and federal government are working out a solution to the loss of the Downriggers. Charley Bodenstab and his crew are providing us with our very own modern arts museum in the old EMT building. Can’t wait. Yes, many people are working to look out for us hard working folks. They are fighting for a clean environment for us all. Some are fighting for a minimum wage, like $15 an hour. Personally, I wouldn’t mind if we had a maximum wage, if it would help the starving and downtrodden. Yes, I’m still a Republican...an Abe Lincoln Republican (even if they didn’t have unions in those days). We don’t believe in slavery, which is the minimum wage of many, even in these days in the world, and We don’t believe in royalty, which is the unlimited wealth of some in the 1 percent. What we do believe in is a fair shake for everyone. — By Journal Columnist Howard Schonberger:
Why I like Mike…Lapointe, that is 2nd District congressional contender at Friday Harbor Grange, July 27, noon By Tom Munsey
Special to the Journal
T
he proposed Cherry Point coal terminal in Bellingham and the growler jet noise on Whidbey Island are issues that make us angry. We wonder why no one in a position in authority is addressing them. Now is our chance to install someone who will do something: Mike Lapointe, independent candidate for Congress. Mike Lapointe is an independent from Everett. Mike has been a machinist and a union officer with the Electrical Workers Union, he has worked at a shelter for teens, he was involved with the Occupy Movement, and he is currently co-owner of a wonderful coffee shop in Everett called the Firewheel. He started the coffee shop as a community meeting place for organizations; it has musical performances and open-mic nights, and it can also be used for weddings and “Sweet 16s”. Teenagers from the shelter where Mike used to work are brought there to receive work experience. Mike ran a campaign for Contributed photo the same seat two years ago, Tom Munsey but most of us have probably not heard of him before. He is really just a regular guy who wants someone to represent us regular folks, and he is willing to step up and be that person. He believes that the two major parties are pretty useless, at least at the national level, as they are bought and paid for
by large campaign donors. As a result, he is running as an independent to represent the 99 percent of us who are not large campaign donors. He accepts no corporate contributions. If he happens to receive one, he will hold a ceremony where the check is publicly cut into small pieces. So his whole campaign will be financed by people like us. Here is what Mike would Contributed photo do on our two major local Mike Lapointe issues: n Growlers: Mike would go to the Navy to stop the flights. Mike wants to represent what is best for the people, and he will not be tied to defense contractors as he will accept no corporate contributions, so he would do everything he could to end this. n Coal terminal, oil trains: Mike is against these and would do everything he could to stop them. Here are some of Mike’s positions on other important issues: Minimum wage: favors $15 minimum. He says that this actually isn’t enough, that it should really be $22 to be livable. Tax reform: needs to be more progressive, fewer corporate tax breaks, move subsidies from fossil fuels to green energy. Immigration: needs amnesty and a pathway to citizenship. Death penalty: opposes. Foreign policy/defense: no more war, bring troops home, provide jobs for them, cut defense spending but increase VA spending. Campaign finance: overturn Citizens United and McCutcheon, also favors instant runoff voting. Women’s issues: women and minorities need opportunities to address inequality; women are entitled to medical See MIKE, Page 8

he islands are buzzing with the usual seasonal activity. The rush of tourists coming and going provides a rhythm to each day that shouts: “Summer has arrived!” PeaceHealth Peace Island Medical Center is abuzz with activity, too. Related less to the sunny days, our increased activity is due to an expansion Jim Barnhart of service to meet islanders’ needs here at home, as well as the medical needs of our island visitors. I’m delighted to announce that our slate of physicians is full, or will be by the end of summer. Paul Zaveruhu, or “Doc Z” as he prefers to be called, is the first surgeon at PeaceHealth Peace Island, and we couldn’t be more pleased. Doc Z is available to provide surgical assessments, minor day surgeries and endoscopic procedures, such as colonoscopies.
New docs fill the ranks as Wingren preps to leave Three board-certified Emergency Department physicians, Roy Graves, Jason Heiner, and Kevin Bowman have joined our team that together provides care 24 hours a day, seven days a week. This increase in ED staff couldn’t come soon enough as we’ve already seen plenty of summer-related accidents that require immediate attention. Cheryl Kubisty, a board-certified internal medicine physician, has been hired to head up our inpatient hospital unit and also to work part-time in the outpatient clinic. After more than 12 years of dedicated service to his patients and the San Juan Island community, Michael Wingren has decided to make a change. He is moving to Gig Harbor at the end of the summer to operate a private practice. His last day at PeaceHealth Peace Island will be Aug. 15. William Gunderson has been hired to ensure clinic access for Dr. Wingren’s former patients. Dr. Gunderson is a board-certified internist who grew up
in a small town, trained at Oregon Health Sciences University and has been a visitor to Friday Harbor in the past. We’ll benefit from his expertise for six months and hope he finds the practice of medicine and living on San Juan Island satisfying and rewarding, so that he’ll stay long-term. We’re also in the process of recruiting a family nurse practitioner to ensure plenty of access for children and teens, as well as adults. This person, whom we hope to have on board by fall, will complement the clinic team of Susan Mahoney, Rachel Bishop and newcomers Drs. Gunderson and Kubisty. Each of these providers is highly trained and represents a concerted effort on the part of PeaceHealth Peace Island to enhance its inpatient medical care as well as adult and family medicine expertise in the clinic. It seems health care is as much about technology as it is about people these days, and I’m proud to report that we recently purchased a state-of-the-art digital bone density X-ray machine. This machine can take full-body imagSee PIMC, Page 8

Workers in other countries should also have rights; it’s not OK for U.S. companies to go there and treat workers like slaves. Mike says that Rep. Larsen wants U.S. corporations to go to China to employ Chinese workers to make things. Mike wants U.S. corporations here. Guns: would get rid of assault rifles, require registration of other guns, but says we need to have a national conversation about gun violence and the reasons for it, like stress and lack of jobs.
Mike says that gun violence is a symptom of what is wrong with our society. Social Security: don't privatize. The Post Office: don't privatize, get rid of prepaid benefits requirement which is just a ploy to bankrupt it so it can be privatized. Mike is in this to be a representative of the people. If elected, he would want input from as many as possible, because he regards the seat as the people’s seat. He plans to operate on issues, and when he believes he is right on an issue, he will not compromise or make concessions.

es to help physicians evaluate the degree of—or potential for— osteoporosis. We’re also adding a third day for scheduling MRI scans to meet growing demand. This means more of you can stay on island for important diagnostic services. We’ve also enhanced our availability to address common illnesses like colds, flu, fever and rashes, as well as minor injuries such as sprains, back pain, minor cuts and burns. Instead of scheduled visits to our clinic on Saturdays, our walk-in urgent care service is now open Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Finally, the premier health care accrediting organization in the U.S., Det Norske Veritas, recently completed its second annual survey of PeaceHealth Peace Island to ensure that patient safety and care quality standards are met. The results of the survey were outstanding and testament to our commitment to provide the safest and best care possible. But the high marks, new
equipment and strong roster of physicians wouldn’t mean much if you—our community, our patients— were dissatisfied with the care and service at PeaceHealth Peace Island. We call it “patient experience” and we routinely survey patients to ensure that we are doing a good job. I’m pleased to report that our most recent patient experience scores were off the charts in all areas, including overall rating and likeliness to recommend PeaceHealth Peace Island to a family member or friend. Truly, this is the single most important benchmark for me. Thank you for your confidence in and appreciation for our wonderful team of caregivers. Summer will be over before we know it, and the stream of visitors will narrow to a trickle. But PeaceHealth Peace Island will still be buzzing with activity, taking care of you and your family regardless of the season. Take care; stay healthy. — Editor’s note: Jim Barnhart is chief administrative officer of Peace Island Medical Center

eople show up at aircraft Fly Ins for all kinds of reasons. And, the Port of Friday Harbor’s Annual Fly-In and Community Open House is no exception. For pilots and airplane fans, everything that flies is a piece of art, to put it mildly, and the chance to walk among them is not to be missed. Kids like assembling and flying balsa wood gliders or getting their faces painted. Some people come just to see friends and walk around the airport. Everyone likes the food, of course, and in keeping with tradition, Friday Harbor’s 5th annual Fly-In begins with a scrumptious Pancake Breakfast, 8-10 a.m.; a variety of vendors will also be on hand to offer a wide array of choices for lunch. You can buy a biplane ride as well, or register to win a free plane or helicopter ride. A free, day-long family friendly event, the Friday Harbor Fly-In kicks into highgear at 10 a.m., and the airport will be abuzz with all sorts of aviation in action until 3 p.m. Here’s a peek at just some of what’s on the horizon: low-altitude passes by rare WWII fighter planes, ancient pre-war aircraft, biplanes, home-built aircraft, flying replicas, helicopters and meticulously groomed and maintained classics, and vintage planes. Many will be on display for up-close inspection, including the regionally renowned Blackjack Squadron, a perennial Fly-In favorite, which will repeat its awe-inspiring arrival and landing in formation. The Fly-In isn’t solely about entertainment. Emergency medical services that operate in the islands will be on hand, with information and equipment on display (think, helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft) to educate islanders about what’s available and how those services are managed and used. Admission to the Port’s 5th annual Fly-In is free, and so is parking, at the former Mark N’ Pak, at the south end of Airport Circle Drive (entrance on Spring St.), at the airport terminal and limited space in the Peace Island Medical Center parking lot. Better yet, a shuttle runs from downtown, to the parking lots and the airport every 15 minutes. While aviation events are part of the fabric all over the country, few serve a community where aircraft is so integral and important to its residents. And, with Friday Harbor’s popularity as a tourist destination, you can expect pilots from all over the Pacific Northwest plan to fly in. For more info, visit fridayharborflyin.blogspot.com
Of pageantry, peace and black powder N o internet. No email. No cell-phones. How did those Royal Marines and U.S. troops stay active and entertained during the peace-filled days of the Pig War? Find out first-hand as Civil War-era re-enactors from across the Pacific Northwest and Canada pitch their tents on the Garrison Bay waterfront to help salute San Juan Island National Historical Park’s 16th Annual Encampment, Saturday and Sunday, July 26-27, at English Camp. Demonstrations of music, blacksmithing, spinning and weaving, cooperage and carpentry, as well as the pageantry of period uniforms in scarlet and blue are just a few of the activities in store. Black powder rifled-musket demonstrations and the firing of a howitzer canons, on both days, promise to add a bit more bang for the buck, except that admission to the Encampment is entirely free. Saturday’s activities culminate in the Candlelight Ball, at 8 p.m., in the English Camp barracks, featuring dancing, refreshments (traditional cake and punch) and music by the Pig War Band. As it has since its inception in 1998, Encampment commemorates the peaceful joint occupation of San Juan Island by British and American forces from 1859 to 1872, stationed just 13 miles apart, and the final settlement of the Northwest Boundary dispute. Throughout the joint occupation, the garrisons
exchanged visits to celebrate holidays, like Christmas, Fourth of July and Queen Victoria’s birthday. Those visits typically included athletic contests, spirited refreshments and, every now and then, an equally high-spirited community dance. A gift from the United Kingdom to the National Park, an 80-foot flagpole erected in English Camp, was the spark that helped to renew the tradition of Encampment, back in 1998. Nearly 600 people, including dignitaries of both nations, were on hand that year. In 2009, the two-day event drew a crowd of nearly 5,000 to celebrate The Pig War Sesquicentennial, the 150-year anniversary, of Encampment.

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the seller’s and buyer’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by visualizing a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension. To make a firewood complaint, call 360-9021857. agr.wa.gov/inspection/ WeightsMeasures/Fire woodinformation.aspx agr.wa.gov/inspection/WeightsMeasures/Firewoodinformation.aspx
