Drought to force water rates up

Out by a mile

By Lea BoyD

“We don’t want to go into water rationing. No one wants to do that.”

Carpinterians will likely start writing bigger checks to Carpinteria Valley Water District when new rates go into effect come July. The district’s board of directors met on March 19 to begin considering their budget for the next fiscal year, and given the $700,000 in potential drought-related expenses and threat of a second –– Water board stage drought declaration, Vice President residential customers are facing an average increase Alonzo Orozco of between $5.50 and $8.53 monthly, while agricultural customers could see their bills increase by an average of $19.41 to $39.75. The higher end of the average rate range would come into effect only if customers fail to voluntarily reduce their water consumption by the 20 percent requested when a stage one drought was declared in February. If water use throughout the district doesn’t meet that mark by August, the board will be asked to consider a stage two drought. Then, instead of required rationing, as districts such as Montecito have done, CVWD is likely to implement a second set of rates that “send a strong price signal” to reduce water use, said Assistant Manager Norma Rosales. “We don’t want to go into water rationing. No one wants to do that,” concluded board Vice President Alonzo Orozco. General Manager Charles Hamilton pointed out that the board is being asked to plan for a year full of “unknowns and question marks.” The biggest unknown, of course, is whether enough wet weather will arrive next winter to pull California out of its drought. Preparing for the worst case scenario of little to no rain, the CVWD board is considering a budget that includes $700,000 in drought related expenses, some of which would be eliminated should storms deliver a substantial amount of precipitation next year. Should the drought break, the district would reduce rates accordingly. CVWD uses a tiered rate system for its residential customers, charging more per unit for high water users. The board is now moving toward implementing a temporary tiered system for agricultural customers as well, one designed to encourage water conservation as drought conditions persist. Board President Matt Roberts and Boardmember June Van Wingerden, both growers, raised concerns over charging higher rates to agricultural customers. Van Wingerden worried about the farmers who rely on private wells but have long paid for unused district water meters as an insurance policy. “If we (implemented a tiered system), I bet all of them would pull their meters,” she said. Carpinteria growers already pay a much higher rate than most other districts to irrigate their crops. In contrast, they are charged significantly less than local residential users because most costs related to meeting drinking water standards are factored out of their rates. When CVWD’s water rates went up during the drought in the late 1980s, there was “a mass exodus of ag customers” from the district, said Rosales. Several

Paredon application resubmittal deemed incomplete Venoco modifies application to include only onshore oil By Peter Dugré

In another go around through the City of Carpinteria planning department, the latest edition of Venoco Inc.’s Paredon Project application was deemed incomplete in a letter from city planners to Venoco dated March 12. The company had resubmitted its resurrected application to drill for oil and natural gas from its Dump Road property on Feb. 10, after receiving a similar notice of incompleteness last year. Venoco has altered its application to include just one exploratory oil well, rather than up to 22 development wells in its previous application, but the city will still analyze the full scope of the oil project beyond exploration phases and needs greater details to do so. Applications for the Paredon Project, which have proposed between 22 and 35 wells into onshore and offshore reserves in and bordering Carpinteria, have been in the planning process at the city since 2004. The application was suspended in 2009 when Venoco sought voter approval for the project through a ballot initiative, Measure J, which lost by a 70 percent to 30 percent margin. It is common for projects of Paredon’s complexity to require multiple application revisions. Carpinteria’s Community Development Director Jackie Campbell said that it took about a year for Venoco’s first Paredon Project application to be deemed complete in 2004. Venoco’s Feb. 10 submittal this year sought a Coastal

Stipulating that the wells will be onshore only is important, because current zoning at the Venoco property allows for drilling onshore but not under the ocean floor. Development Permit for the first phase of the Paredon Project, rather than applying for the entire project through full development at once. In phase one, Venoco proposes drilling a single vertical test well and two sidetrack wells that would terminate onshore, rather than extending under the ocean floor. Stipulating that the wells will be onshore only is important, because current zoning at the Venoco property allows for drilling onshore but not under the ocean floor. In order to fully develop the Paredon Project, Venoco would have to apply for a Local Coastal Program Amendment to modify its zoning, a step not necessary in phase one.

Renee Zuniga, 31, was arrested for allegedly selling drugs on March 24 after a Santa Barbara Police Narcotics team served a search warrant at Beach Motor and Tires on Carpinteria Ave. Ofﬁcers recovered 6 ounces of heroin and 9 grams of methamphetamine, valued somewhere between $8,000 to $10,000. Over $50,000 in cash was also found on the premises. Zuniga, an employee of the automotive repair shop, was suspected of keeping his drugs at the business, according to Sergeant Dan McGrew of the Santa Barbara Police Department. He was arrested and booked for possession for sales of heroin and methamphetamine.

Anti-fracking group ﬁles for ballot initiative

On March 18, citizens group Santa Barbara County Water Guardians took the first step toward a Santa Barbara County ban on fracking, cyclic steam injection and other high-intensity petroleum operations. The grassroots group filed a notice of intent with the Santa Barbara County Registrar to circulate a petition for the ban. “Using these technologies, the petroleum industry would gain increased access to oil resources lying below our homes, farms and natural areas,” said Rebecca Claassen of Santa Barbara County Water Guardians. “The impacts and risks associated with high-intensity petroleum operations are too great for Santa Barbara County residents to accept. In order to protect local resources and interests, we want to prohibit this land use before it further endangers human health and the environment in Santa Barbara County.” The initiative seeks to amend the Santa Barbara County Comprehensive Plan and related codes to prohibit the use of any land within the county’s unincorporated area for fracking and other high-intensity petroleum operations. Upon the County Registrar’s certification of petition signatures, the Board of Supervisors can elect to adopt the initiative or put the measure on the ballot for voters to decide this November.

Franklin School teacher launches “Random Acts of Kindness” Month

Leon Lewandowski, a third-grade teacher at Santa Barbara’s Franklin School, has challenged community members to join him in doing at least one Random Act of Kindness (RAoK) a day for the month of April. Lewandowski completed the task himself last year, and this year he has 400 Facebook followers who have thus far taken up the challenge. Last year Lewandowski and his 9-yearold daughter gave out cold drinks on the side of the road on a hot Sunday. He and his wife, Aliso School teacher Mary Lewandowski, passed out flowers to strangers on State Street. They helped the homeless, mowed their neighbor’s lawns and surprised friends and co-workers with baked treats. “The best RAoK,” said Leon, “are the ones you do for strangers, for folks who don’t know you and least expect it.” Anyone interested in joining the group can search “April Random Acts of Kindness Month” on Facebook.

City Council takes anti-fracking stance BY CAT NEUSHUL

With an item relating to fracking on the Carpinteria City Council agenda March 24, people in support and opposition of the fossil fuels extraction method showed up to the meeting to express their views. After listening to public comments, the city council approved a motion to send letters to Governor Jerry Brown and Congresswoman Lois Capps calling for a moratorium on oil and gas well-stimulation treatments in California, both on and offshore, until environmental reviews have been conducted and a permitting process is set in place. Well-stimulation practices, of which fracking (hydraulic fracturing) is one type, are techniques in which chemicals are dispersed into an area containing shale, creating fractures in the rock in order to extract oil and gas deposits. City Manager Dave Durflinger said the use of these techniques has increased nationwide, and that many cities have taken a stand on the issue, including Carson and Los Angeles. Some cities have called for a complete ban of the techniques, while others have asked the state and federal government to institute an interim moratorium until scientific data relating to the practices can be collected. The state has weighed in on this issue as well. Last year, the California legislature enacted Senate Bill 4, which requires the state to conduct an environmental impact report and gather scientific data on these practices in order to establish regulations. Many people, including members of the Carpinteria City Council, don’t want to wait until January to take a stand. In a letter to Governor Brown, the city council said, “SB4 creates a science-based process that will allow for good decisions to be made with regard to establishing appropriate regulation of well-stimulation practices. However, in the meantime potentially dangerous practices continue with very little oversight.” In their letter to Congresswoman Lois Capps, the city council said, “Clean air and water and the unique coastal resources that exist are integral to what residents and visitors value about Carpinteria, and are a key driver of the local economy.” Several local residents expressed support for a moratorium, citing potential threats to water quality, the environment and the possibility of causing earthquakes. Vera Bensen said, “We are finding out new facts (about fracking) every day.” She added, “We here in Carpinteria have so many reasons to avoid fracking.” Representatives from the oil and gas industry spoke at the meeting expressing support for well-stimulation practices. Chris Collier, from the Central Coast Energy Alliance, said a moratorium would have an effect on local businesses. He said, “The oil industry does a lot for

the economy in the area. A moratorium would hurt jobs in the area.” Blair Knox, from the California Independent Petroleum Association said, “There is no problem here.” He said, “I have studies that show that fracking has been done safely in the past.” Sandra Burkhart, representing the Western States Petroleum Association, said, “Hydraulic fracturing is a safe practice that has been used for more than 60 years.” Councilman Fred Shaw said the state’s current approach toward well-stimulation practices was similar to allowing a 15-year-old drive a car because they claim that they are “perfectly safe.” “We are letting that person get behind the wheel and drive before (we know) it is safe.” He said that he supported an interim moratorium. Councilman Al Clark wanted the city to take even more stringent measures. He said, “I want to look at banning all drilling in the City of Carpinteria.” He said that the city used to be a hub for the oil and gas industry, but times have changed. “Now tourism is more of a mainstay for the local economy, rather than oil.”

State senator tours local orchard

California State Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson learned a thing or two about Carpinteria avocado growing on March 21 while touring Santa Barbara area sites to learn how the drought has affected the area. The tour started at Lake Cachuma and led to Matt Roberts’ orchard north of the Santa Barbara Polo & Racquet Club. “It was really important to me that I see things up close. I want to go back to Sacramento to tell them what we’re doing (in Santa Barbara County),” said Jackson. Roberts’ 60-acre orchard, which includes mainly avocado and cherimoya trees, showcased best water conservation practices for the senator’s tour. A few years ago, Cachuma Resource Conservation District conducted an irrigation audit of Roberts’ property and recommended significant changes to the irrigation hardware and practices in place. In the last 25 years, the CRCD, which serves Santa Barbara and southern San Luis Obispo counties, has performed 1,228 such free, voluntary evaluations. In Carpinteria alone, 586 acres of lemon and avocados have been evaluated, and Anne Coates, executive director of the CRCD, said that recommended changes have led to 609 acre feet in water savings annually. Though many local farmers rely on private wells for irrigation, Roberts’ water supply comes from Carpinteria Valley Water District. His ranch “is sitting on rock,” he said, which makes drilling a well to access groundwater unviable. CVWD water is discounted for growers, who do not pay some of the costs related to meeting drinking water standards, but remains expensive compared to well water. Roberts’ decision to upgrade the ranch’s irrigation system was intended to maximize benefit to the crops while minimizing water use. Roberts also is a 4  Thursday, September 26, 2013

See it, shift it, shape it

Why do you appreciate your friends, relatives or partner at some times and not at others? The obvious answer is that it depends upon their behavior. However, brain research suggests that it really depends upon which part of your brain is most active. Neuroscientists have found that when they stimulate certain areas of the brain with electrical impulses, they can get their subjects to learn more rapidly, solve math problems that previously eluded them, and most recently, to be more appreciative of abstract art. However, most of us do not have access to the transcranial direct-current stimulation equipment used by these researchers. But we do have access to a very effective technology. Let me explain by way of an example. I was talking to a man recently who had gotten into an argument with his wife. As he told me his story, he was slumped forward and I could see the struggle on his face. So we engaged in a practice to change which area of his brain was most active. I asked him to pay attention to his body and see where he felt the strongest sensations as he told me about the argument. He pointed to his chest and told me it felt full and heavy. Next, I asked him what he would call this feeling. “Sadness.” Finally, I asked him what story he associated with this feeling. “I am a bad husband.” This experience—the sensations, the name assigned to them, and the story about it all—is a collection of events created by activity in his nervous system. Once he could see the events occurring within him, I asked him sit up straight and take a gentle, deep breath, relaxing his belly on the in breath, and his shoul-

ders on the out breath. Breathing gently, I encouraged him to allow the corners of his mouth to rise and to bring his attention to his chest with a sense of opening, appreciation and gratitude. This change in posture, breathing and attention moves activity from the survival networks deep in the center of the brain to the growth and exploration networks toward the front of the brain. Now I asked him what was most important to him. “Having a kind relationship with my wife.” And what is the opportunity here? “I can tell her how much she means to me and listen to her concerns.” It was wonderful to see how much his face had lightened. There is nothing magical here. How you experience the world depends upon activity in your brain. Your survival brain will only tell you about problems, obstacles and limitations. You have the ability to use your attention, your posture, and your breathing to shift activity into your growth brain.

Wayne Babcock ﬂashes a big grin as he shows off the newest member of his surfboard collection.

Local adds 19th century surfboard to collection

Anyone who knows Wayne Babcock knows that the only thing he loves even more than a good deal is a deal on a historic surfboard. Thus the owner of Angels Antiques was all smiles when he pulled up to the curb in front of his Carpinteria Avenue shop on March 21 to unload a 115-pound surfboard allegedly shaped out of ship planks in the 1890s as a gift from a Bostonian sea captain to his son. The antiques dealer, whose passion is surfboard collecting, purchased the board from an eBay auction a few weeks ago. Made of heavy white oak sealed with bees wax, the board has likely never been surfed. “It’s a dog,” Babcock said, looking at the board’s primitive shape, rough surfaces and massive weight. Nonetheless, it is now one of Babcock’s most prized possessions and an artifact that he believes helps to illustrate the history of surﬁng. According to the seller, the board’s original owner, Captain Johnson, had run his ship aground in Boston and ordered the ship’s carpenter to fashion a surfboard out of salvaged planks. Johnson’s descendents possessed the board until

1987, when it was spotted in the rafters of a garage during a yard sale and sold to the man who many years later sold it to Babcock. Babcock has researched the history of surﬁng extensively and regularly travels to Hawaii, the birthplace of the sport, to collect memorabilia and information. He said that in the 1800s, Hawaiians referred to the United States as Boston, given that most of their interactions were with Boston-based seafarers. He theorizes that Captain Johnson had traveled to Hawaii, and his firsthand exposure to surfing motivated the construction of the board after the shipwreck. “That’s part of my fascination with surfboard history—the mystery,” Babcock said. Babcock and his girlfriend, Zelda, are working to connect the origins of California surﬁng to the Hawaiians who had relocated along the West Coast. Eventually, the pair hopes to create a traveling museum exhibit with Babcock’s collection of surfboards. ––Lea Boyd

I recently hiked the new Franklin Trail and saw the spectacular views of our town, which I had never seen in that way. I had heard my great-grandpa, grandma, and some Carpinteria old-timers tell stories of what was “back there” and how you used to be able to hike into that area. So, the new trail provides longsought-after public access to some much appreciated hiking. But what struck me on my hike was the development that has happened in the area. It made me think of the development that has taken place in Goleta, Montecito, Summerland, Toro Canyon, and if you follow the trend, Carpinteria (i.e. Monte Alegre development, recent resort proposals, the uncertain fate of the Tee Time property, the soon-to-be changes to on/off ramps, and the acreage for sale adjacent to thunderbowl zoned for a resort). It seems those with the means to purchase a view are getting their opportunity, but in doing so they are forever changing our views. I just can’t believe that so much of our town is in danger of being scarred, destroyed and developed. I started to wonder if the people in charge remembered how it used to be in this town. Do they even know? What is spurring this trend toward change and development? Do locals really want this? Is it inevitable? We should be grateful for what the Land Trust for Santa Barbara County and the Trust for Public Land have done to help the community purchase land reserves. But Ventura has a hillside conservancy, and maybe Carpinteria needs the same approach. Election season is the time to show we’re still a strong community. Maybe we need to reconsider our choices and support those who pledge a “slow-growth” approach and who are less likely to cave in to pressure to develop our town. It is our town!

Time to give back

I have lived in Carpinteria all of my life. As a kid, I often fished with my father. I remember catching big yellowtail right off Stearn’s Wharf on the half day boat during El Niño. I recall the kelp beds at Palm Avenue; it was like a Jacques Cousteau documentary, teeming with sea life such as abalone and sea bass. A valuable lesson my father taught was to give back. I hated it; when we cleaned fish he made me haul a bucket of extras to the beach. He said it was important to give it back, since we take so much. I take every single day; surfing, spear fishing, lobster fishing, clamming, tide

pooling, etc. My demand on the ocean is non-stop. Every day I see people taking, like myself. Surfers walk on the reef, damaging sea life, for a convenient spot to paddle out. I am guilty of this myself. People walk in tide pools, where anemones do not stand a chance against tennis shoes. Carpinteria reef is a ghost town, literally wiped out, a fraction of what it was when I dove it as a kid. It is time to give back. It starts with awareness, and it starts with myself. I will tell how I see it, to offer awareness. I will act with consideration. How hard is it to pick up trash on the beach? Dog owners: seabirds are scratching a living all day while we allow our pets to come off the couch, from the comforts of a home with no predators, to chase them down with blazing speed as they ﬂee for their life. That’s just not right. Take a moment to give back. Pick up a piece of trash as you walk the beach. It offers a great example and has tremendous impact.

Pump the brakes on homeless population growth

I hate to sound like a broken record, but this situation is out of control. I’m talking about the homeless that have invaded our town. It really bums me out (pun intended) to drive through our great town and see a transient on pretty much every corner. Really? Our town is okay with this? With our tourist season just around the corner, our city leaders really need to do something about this problem. We don’t want our streets to become another lower State Street/South Milpas Street in Santa Barbara. Our city businesses cannot afford to lose tourist business, but they will if our streets continue to become infested with bums. This past Sunday afternoon I counted seven homeless people loitering on our streets. There have been multiple incidents involving the homeless being drunk in public, urinating in public and bothering patrons at local restaurants. It’s time that this stuff stopped. I urge the residents of Carpinteria to not give transients any handouts. But if you feel the need to help them, then please, open your home to them and get them off of our streets. I would also like to know why our local law enforcement agency isn’t doing more to crack down on the transient problem. I guess it’s more important to hassle locals at The Palms on Friday night than to rid our city of homeless riff raff.

As part of their second-grade year, Aliso School students participated in a dance class provided by Children’s Creative Project. The six weeks course, taught by brittany Sandoval, allows the students to “really get into all of the fun moves and music,” according to school principal Holly Minear. Children’s Creative Project is a nonprofit arts education organization that connects students with professional artists. A grant from Venoco inc. funded the local dance class.

Peter Cotte awarded for GATE instruction

On March 14, Carpinteria High School teacher Peter cotte was recognized by the Tri-county GATe council with a “We Recognize Our Own Award” for providing outstanding service to students in the Gifted and Talented education (GATe) program. cotte was among 30 distinguished educators honored at a luncheon at the Ventura unified School District Office. Cotte, a Carpinteria High School teacher since 2003, teaches AP world history, modern world and health and has been the advisor for Mock Trial. cotte was nominated by students. One commented, “I found Mr. Cotte to be engaging, witty and genuinely Teresa Koontz, GATE Coordinator concerned about his students. He has for CUSD, presets Peter Cotte with a used different ways to make history certificate of recognition. come ‘alive’ for the class.” Principal Gerardo Cornejo describes Cotte as a “think outside the box” teacher who challenges his students to better themselves as scholars and citizens.

The Plaza Playhouse Theater’s Beatles invasion Weekend was a smashing success. local impresario Peter Bie organized the Feb. 14 and 15 events to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Fab Four’s live appearance on American television. The celebration began Saturday night with a sold-out concert by local rock legends The Tearaways. Their inspired Beatles covers sounded like postcards from liverpool. The Brit-pop bash continued on Sunday afternoon with an appearance by english rock star Alan Parsons. He was interviewed on the Plaza Theater’s stage by Dennis Mitchell, host of the syndicated radio show “Breakfast with the Beatles.” Parsons answered audience questions and shared insights from his stellar songwriting, performing and producing career. in his late teens Parsons worked at london’s eMi Studios and helped engineer The Beatles “let it Be” and “Abby road” albums. He described lennon and Mccartney as “very clever songwriters.” The weekend’s grand finale was a presentation of the 1964 ed Sullivan Show, which featured the Fab Four performing five songs including “I Want To Hold your Hand.” This columnist caught up with national radio host Dennis Mitchell after the showing. Q: Where did the idea for your radio program originate? Dennis Mitchell: The first “Breakfast with the Beatles” started in 1976 in Philadelphia. it was so successful it morphed to other cities. in 1990, i took over the las Vegas version and threw myself into it. i’ve had a blast presenting the show every week for the last 23 years.

Mother-son Karen and Jason Kwon and father-son Ben and Luke Anderson get down and dirty to beautify Canalino School.

Canalino families beautify school

On March 22, more than 20 families attended Canalino beautification Day to spruce up the campus with cleaning, painting, gardening and landscaping. beautification days are part of the school’s strategic plan, which was implemented this year and includes a variety of ways to create parent engagement in schools. There are two more beautification Days planned for next school year.

Q: How do you decide on which Beatles facets to feature? Mitchell: People sometimes ask me, “What’s there left to tell?” i say it’s still the greatest music story that’s ever happened. i never get tired of learning and sharing new details about the band. i track Paul’s and ringo’s concerts and use a calendar system to remember significant historical anniversaries. i don’t want my show to be a one trick pony, so i also focus on unusual aspects of their music, like the indian instruments they used or their innovative recording techniques. i want to hit listeners with something they didn’t know, something new. Q: Has The Beatles music changed you personally? Mitchell: They were a big influence, both

musically and personally. especially the band’s “White Album.” in 1968, the group was starting to splinter. each of the Beatles was contributing his own songs. i always listened more to John lennon. He was the first one to stick his neck out and say things that were on his mind that didn’t have anything to do with music. Lennon was one of my chief influences, and his record “imagine” might be my favorite album of all time. A lot of people connected with what The Beatles were saying. The songs became a real part of their lives. As crazy as that may sound, read their lyrics. There’s a lot of truth and life there.

Music Notes

• Congratulations to David Powdrell and roland rotz for selling out both performances of the Feb. 22 rotary Talent Showcase. Master of ceremonies John Palminteri kept the show rolling with his grab bag of funny one-liners. Magician Tom Tourville somehow coaxed a small table to float above the Plaza Theater’s stage. Twelve-year-old carpinteria Middle School vocalist Alitza Gonzalez stunned the audience with her rich, emotive cover of Adele’s “rolling in the Deep.” local rising star Xenia Flores sang an original song entitled “Home.” Her beautiful smile, hip hat and sunlit vocal framed the song’s uplifting message. • On Feb. 24, jazz trumpeter Jeff Elliot launched his new album “Facing West” at Santa Barbara’s Soho Nightclub. elliot’s 10-member All-Star band included superb bassist randy Tico plus creative keyboardist Quinn Johnson and dazzling drummer Kevin Winard from jazz vocalist Steve Tyrell’s group. carpinteria percussionist luis conte’s hands were a blur playing both congas and timbales. elliot’s trumpet soared through his all originals set featuring Bossa Nova, Funk Fusion and cool West coast Jazz. Hear elliot’s smooth sound at Soho’s monthly Monday jazz jams.

Music Trivia Quiz

Q: Which “classic” American popular song has no lyrics that rhyme? A: Most songwriters write rhyming lyrics, but “Moonlight in Vermont” is a startling departure. The elegant song was written in 1944 by John Blackburn with music composed by karl Sussdorf. instead of rhyming, Blackburn used a collage of images to poetically describe Vermont’s landscape. The song has been covered by dozens of vocalists including: Billy Holiday, Nat king cole, Tony Bennett, linda ronstadt, ray charles, The Coasters and jam band Phish. See/hear Frank Sinatra’s live version of “Moonlight in Vermont” backed by the Nelson Riddle Orchestra on YouTube.com. See markbrickley.com for Brickley’s music articles and photography.

Stolen memories

A woman reporting her vehicle stolen on March 14 came to find out there was a gap in her memory large enough to drive a car through. The alleged victim, 39, told deputies that she had parked at a Carpinteria Avenue hotel at about 11 p.m. the night before, and the vehicle was gone when she tried to retrieve it at 8 p.m. the following day. Investigating the theft, deputies reviewed surveillance footage and observed two women enter the vehicle and drive it away. Having viewed the footage of the missing vehicle being driven away, deputies entered the vehicle as stolen in their system. When deputies relayed a suspect description to the woman, she thought the described car thieves were dead ringers for her and her friend. Deputies inquired if the woman had been intoxicated and maybe had forgotten about driving, but she asserted that was not possible. Later she called deputies back to inform them she

Carpinteria Beautiful presents Looking Good Award Bright colors and unique plant shapes initially drew the attention of Carpinteria Beautiful board members to the front yard of Jon and Susan Everett’s home on Pacific Village Drive. The water wise nature of the landscaping then tipped the scales in favor of the Everetts’ selection as recipients of Carpinteria Beautiful’s annual Looking Good Award. In the fall of 2011, the Everetts, along with Greenleaf Landscapes, designed the xeriscape, drip irrigated, water wise front yard. Seven species of drought tolerant plants were installed within the main area: agave, aloe, aeonium, esheveria, kalanchoe, furcraea and senecio. Additionally they used succulents along the house and shrubbery near the front door to create a private sitting area. Five large sandstone boulders were placed in the yard, before agaves, furcraea and aeonims were arranged artfully around them. In place of a water feature, short-leaf senecio were planted to look like a stream flowing across the yard into the long-leaf senecio “pond.” The entire transformation took about two weeks. In early 2013, the Everetts’ landscaping was selected as the Carpinteria winner of the first annual WaterWise Garden Recognition Contest held by the Santa Barbara County Water Agency. Their Looking Good Award now joins a carved stone 2013 WaterWise Garden award in their front yard.

Above, a water-wasting lawn once stretched across Jon and Susan Everett’s front yard on Pacific Village Drive. At right, after a 2011 overhaul, the Everetts’ landscaping exemplifies Carpinteria Beautiful’s motto, “clean, green and beautiful.”

WATER RATES:

Carpinteria Household goods & Hazardous Waste day

Continued from page 1

growers opted to drill their own wells rather than pay for district water, which ultimately led to even higher water rates for residential customers. CVWD administrative analyst Alex Keuper said that the tiered agricultural rate is designed to promote efficient water use in order to return growers to their pre-drought usage. “If we set a single price increase, we’re going to chase them away,” he said. Boardmembers were presented with multiple rate structure options to consider during last week’s meeting and at meetings planned for the next two weeks. Prop 218 adds time pressure to the board’s rate and budget decisions. The proposition requires that CVWD notify its customers by April 11 of the maximum possible rate change for 2014-2015. The final budget will not be approved until a public hearing planned for June 18. In the last couple years, the district was able to pass budgets with smaller rate hikes than customers had been notified of under Prop 218.

PAREDON: Continued from page 1

In reviewing the application, city planners determined that even though an amendment to the Local Coastal Program would not be necessary to explore oil onshore, should an Environmental Impact Report be prepared for drilling the exploration well, it would still analyze every phase of the project through development of offshore reserves. Since the scope of an EIR for the project remains the same, all of the same baseline information describing current activity at the Carpinteria Oil and Gas Processing Facility would be required. The city’s letter of application incompleteness identifies eight areas where more information will be necessary to determine baseline data as a starting point for environmental studies. The city has requested information regarding any changes at the site since it last studied the project in 2008. Changes include the expansion of DCOR, an additional oil company, on Dump Road and of information regarding fracking being conducted at Platform Gail, from which oil and gas is transported by pipeline to Carpinteria for processing.

NEXT WEEK:

Warrior boys golf hits links March 27 - April 2, 2014

BY PETER DUGRÉ

Carpinteria High School athletic director Pat Cooney scored the results of last week’s CIF Southern Section Northern Area league realignment meeting as a big victory for Warrior sports teams. The newly minted TriCounty Athletic Association, which oversees Frontier and Tri-Valley Leagues, leaves historically dominant Oaks Christian and Oak Park high schools off its roster. The TCAA will add Cate and Thacher schools in addition to Foothill Tech, smaller schools that should increase parity and will likely raise the stakes of crosstown rivalry games between the Warriors and Rams. Analysis of competition since the inception of the TCAA shows that Oak Park and Oaks Christian have captured the lion’s share of league championships. St. Bonaventure, another sports-oriented school, remains in TCAA for all sports but football. A similar re-leaguing had already been completed last year, but court decisions nullified that shifting of teams, necessitating new meetings last week. Last year, CIF had removed Oaks Christian and St. Bonaventure from the Northern Area, but the schools filed and won suits allowing them to stay in the Northern Area. The latest meetings had to find Northern Area leagues for the teams. Cate athletic director Wade Ransom commented that Cate is ready to make the jump from Condor League, and student-athletes should benefit from stiffer competition. “We are pleased to find the competitive balance and stability the TCAA will bring to us, and look forward to the challenge of competing against different schools next year. We anticipate this move generating a lot of excitement from our student body and coaches, as we feel the TCAA will allow our athletes to participate in athletics at a high level while continuing to value their role as terrific students off the court,” stated Ransom. Cate had already been in Tri-Valley League and has competed against Carpinteria for aquatic sports. Condor League schools had been shrinking their sports programs over the last several years, while Cate has grown its programs, Ransom said. “I’m really excited to have the competition and rivalry with Carp,” Ransom added. “It’s nice to be able to play a school on Friday and then you see them down in town on Saturday.” Foothill Tech, a Ventura school, will launch its sports programs next school year in the TCAA. Its students reside in Buena and Ventura high schools’ districts and previously played for those teams.

Carp Toy Co. sells to Upright Sports owners

Carpinteria Toy Company will have new owners behind the counter as of April 1. Matthew and Mia Morphy, who own Upright Sports in the Carpinteria Business Park, are in the process of purchasing the business from its original owner, Sarah Hinton. The Morphys envision combining their two businesses in a way that allows for a diverse inventory of toys for the whole family. Through Upright Sports, Matthew sells stand up paddle boards and contracts with clients to builds backyard sports courts. Mia, former pet shop owner, will lend her retail experience to the toy shop. “We’re looking forward to having a lot of fun with it,” said Matthew. Hinton opened the toy shop at 5285 Carpinteria Ave. five years ago. She also operates a wedding flower business, Rincon Floral, which has become increasingly popular and is taking more of her time. She decided to sell the toy shop in order to focus on the flower business. The toy store currently shares space with Curious Cup Bookstore, which relocated from Linden Avenue last fall. The Morphys said that they are uncertain how the toy shop’s current space will meet their long term needs, but they plan to remain on The Corner of Toys and Books while they gather community input on inventory and offerings.

The best kind of turnover The term “turnover” has different meanings depending on its use. It means one thing to accountants, another to human resource managers and still another to financial advisors. To foodies, a turnover is a small pastry made by covering one half of a piece of dough with a filling, folding the other half over on top and sealing the edges. They RANDY GRAHAM are a hearty and tasty wintertime favorite in our home. The vegetarian sausage provides the “hearty.” The combination of kale, onions, apples and golden raisins provides the “tasty.” Although this recipe takes approximately 30 minutes of prep time, I am confident that your time will be well spent. Serve warm turnovers for lunch or as a light supper with a simple salad on the side.

Hearty kale and veggie sausage turnovers Dough ingredients

ly. Place in refrigerator while preparing the sausage filling.

Filling ingredients

In a large skillet, heat oil over mediumhigh. Add sausage, cover and cook for 5 minutes. Remove from skillet and chop coarsely. Add back to skillet along with onions and cook until onions are translucent: another 5 minutes. Add apple, kale and raisins. Cover and cook until kale is almost tender; about 5 minutes. Uncover and season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

2 ½ cups flour 1 cup unsalted butter (cut into small pieces) 1 ½ teaspoons salt ½ cup ice water

1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil 1 package Lightlife Smart Sausages, Italian style 1 medium onion (medium dice) 2 Granny Smith apples (core but do no peel, medium dice) 1 bunch kale (ribs removed, chop remaining leaves) 1/4 cup golden raisins Salt and fresh ground pepper to taste Milk (for turnover crust)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, butter and salt. Cut butter into flour/ salt until the mixture resembles course corn meal. Add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, to mixture, stirring constantly until dough holds together. Form dough into a disk and wrap tight-

Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. With a small bowl, cut out 6-inch rounds. This should make eight nice 3-inch turnovers when filled. Place ½ cup sausage mixture on one side of each round. Rub a little water around the edge and fold over to form half-moon turnovers. Using a fork, press edges firmly to seal. Place turnovers on baking sheet and brush tops with milk. Make a ½-inch cross cut on the top of each turnover and bake until golden brown and crisp; about 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from oven and cool on a wire rack for about five minutes before serving.

A gray whale greets kayak guide Mike Wathan off Santa Cruz Island.

Chasing cetaceans

Reluctantly we pulled on wet wetsuits the weekend following Christmas, attempting to ignore the initial bite of soggy neoprene within the dank, chilly canyon at Scorpion Anchorage on the southeast end of Santa Cruz Island. Mike Wathan, another kayak guide, and I were about to paddle over a mile northeast off the island to see the gray whale migration from the seats of our kayaks. We ’ d f i n i s h e d leading a kayak tour the day before and afterwards walked up to Cavern Point to see a procession of whales migrating swiftly southward down the California coast and eventually to the warm water lagoons of Baja California. Within an hour we spotted 11 gray whales, the spouts spewing saltwater, the sound carrying clearly to our lofty perch hundreds of feet above. We decided to be on the water at dawn the next morning to see these marine mammals moving along the volcanic isle, California’s largest. After pulling on those icy wetsuits, we paddled furiously to warm up and soak in the morning sun. About 15 minutes later, we heard our first whale spout. It sounded closer than it was. When we located the whale, it was still a half mile off our bows. Another 15 minutes and we were in their migrating route. Minutes

later and we had four gray whales bearing down on our portside. We sat right in their path. When they were about 50 yards away they dove deep underneath us, and for a few moments it went eerily quiet with no sign of the behemoths. Then the four of them surfaced, spouting in unison CHUCK 50 yards east of us. GRAHAM We tried a different strategy with the next few whales. Instead of sitting in their path, we got alongside of them while they moved south. We had several grays surface 25 yards off our portside with a handful showing some tail before diving deep. Watching them from a kayak was the best view I’ve ever had of them. From a boat you’re looking down on them and you don’t get a feel for how fast they are moving south. From a kayak I really had to paddle hard to keep up and try and get some shots of them at their level, which is much more appealing. Every time they surfaced and dove again, the whales left a broad, smooth, circular footprint on the surface of the water. We tracked them while they did this, anticipating when they would dive deep and vanish for several minutes while they fed along the way. We also noticed that they liked to shoot the 3-mile-wide gap of the Anacapa

unpredictable wilderness

Just a fluke? Toting a camera aboard his kayak, columnist Chuck Graham crossed paths with numerous migrating gray whales last December. Passage between Santa Cruz and Anacapa Islands, a direct southerly route. Besides the grays, California sea lions and pods of common dolphins rifled alongside us and behind the whales. Sooty shearwaters, migratory pelagic seabirds that make the 12,000-mile roundtrip gray whale migration seem like a 5k, swooped at us several times, veering off at the last second. They travel 40,000 miles a year beginning at their nesting grounds in New Zealand, not so much in flocks but all heading to the same place. The gray whales, though, garnered most of our attention. It’s been a banner year for gray whale sightings along the California coast. Data from the American Cetacean Society/Los Angeles Chapter’s Gray Whale Census reported 368 gray

whale sightings in December 2013 compared to 182 sightings during the same period the previous year. Each year beginning in the fall, an estimated 20,000 gray whales make the trip from their feeding grounds in the Chukchi and Bering Seas of Alaska to the warm lagoons of Baja for mating season. Scientists do not yet have answers as to why so many grays—which can weigh up to 40 tons and average up to 50 feet long—have been spotted in Southern California waters, but most say sightings within one or two miles of the shoreline is not uncommon. This is especially true on their return northward as female grays with their newborn calves in tow hug the coastline to avoid marauding orcas that chase the migration further out in the Santa Barbara Channel.

What’s new at the harbor seal rookery? The following counts taken from March 17 to 23 were compiled from Carpinteria Seal Watch volunteer reports. Carpinteria harbor seal beach closure runs from Dec. 1 to June 1 each year. Seal Watch volunteers are still welcome to sign up by calling 684-2247.

Visitors

194 70+ High Pup Count

Volunteers counted 1,545, including people from Belgium, France, Ukraine, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the Czech Republic, Austria, Germany, Canada, Mexico, Minnesota, Washington, Oregon, Colorado, Florida, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, New York, Louisiana, New Hampshire, Illinois, Connecticut, Ohio, Nebraska, Arizona, Texas, New Mexico, Kansas, Nevada, Indiana and New Jersey.

Disturbances

The seals were frightened into the ocean by a helicopter, an airplane, an oil worker at the pier turnaround area, and by a couple walking on the beach in the closed area.

Natural History Notes

People watching the seals often find their attention distracted a little out to sea by migrating gray whales, which occasionally pass within a few hundred yards. Spring migration from Baja California to the North Pacific typically begins around February and March for males and females without calves. Mothers with calves tend to leave in mid-March and April, though sometimes as late as May, when their calves are ready to travel.

Wedding

Kline - Romais

Tending to family business in Mexico City, Carpinterian Fernando Jimenez took the time to visit El Ángel, officially known as the Monument of Independence, to acquaint Coastal View News with the famed tribute to Mexico’s 1810 War of Independence. Jimenez most recently traveled to Mexico City in early March, as he does multiple times annually, for his family’s pottery business. He carries the pottery home with him and uses the trips as a way to travel to the rich cultural center of Mexico. He calls it “a beautiful place to visit,” and to dine at the great restaurants.

The Carpinteria harbor seal rookery is located immediately east of Casitas Pier, between the Carpinteria Bluffs Nature Preserve and Carpinteria State Beach. Please remember not to bring dogs, bicycles or loud voices to view the seals. Harbor seals, when disturbed, may flee and become separated from their pups. Volunteers ask that dogs remain outside the rope area at all times. Call 684-2247 or email CarpSealWatch@gmail.com if you are interested in volunteering.
