Commissioners plan to interview candidates to succeed Dr. Charles Lester’s vacant staff position. By Parimal M. Rohit NEWPORT BEACH — The California Coastal Commission will interview a short-list of candidates for the agency’s open executive director position exactly one year after its previous staff leader was publicly ousted. Commissioners narrowly voted to fire Dr. Charles Lester as the agency’s executive director on Feb. 10, 2016. The Coastal Commission will interview as many as five candidates to fill the vacancy during a closed session hearing scheduled for Feb. 10, 2017. The five candidates were vetted from 13 applications received and recommended by a consultant firm hired by the Coastal Commission. In regards to the names of those five candidates, Coastal Commission staff said they would be kept confidential. CPS HR was hired by the Coastal Commission to assist the state agency in its search for a new executive director. The firm added Kevin Doyle, a Boston-based environmental workforce consultant, to the search team, it was announced in December 2016. A confidential report about poten-

tial hires was sent to commissioners by the CPS HR team in early January. Commissioners reportedly discussed the interview process during a closed session hearing on Jan. 13, the final day of its January 2017 meetings in San Luis Obispo. The Coastal Commission’s February 2017 meetings were held Feb. 8-10 in Newport Beach. Questions to be asked of the five candidates were still being drafted as of the commission’s previous meeting. Commissioners were given suggested questions during the Jan. 13 closed session meeting. The Coastal Commission’s human resources staff and members of the CPS HR team both advised commissioners to have a list of standard questions to ask every candidate. A successful candidate could be announced shortly after the interviews were completed, though an official timeline of when the new executive director would be announced was not revealed. Efforts to find Lester’s successor were underway in earnest in May 2016, when the Coastal Commission released a request for proposals to hire an executive search firm. A draft job description was published in August 2016. Whoever succeeds Lester would earn between $152,964 and $160,608 annually; the compensation package also includes retirement, health, dental

Board also green lights ownership assignment for H&M Landing. By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — A reorganized Board of Port Commissioners kicked off the 2017 calendar year by announcing a new chair for the Port of San Diego’s quasijudicial agency and moving forward with a Coastal Development Permit for the Chula Vista Bayfront project. The board also consented to new ownership assignment distribution for H&M Landing but delayed voting on a proposed rental rate for Southwestern Yacht Club through 2048. All three resolutions were approved as part of the Board’s Jan. 10 consent calendar agenda.

Chula Vista Bayfront Commissioners approved a resolution to issue a non-appealable Coastal Development Permit (CDP) for the planned Chula Vista Bayfront redevelopment project. The permit would allow port officials and the developer to prepare the harbor waterfront area for clearing and compaction at 11 locations. Soil would be imported and placed over about 681,000 cubic yards of the

redevelopment site in an effort to guard against potential sea level rise. “The imported soil would be used to increase existing sites’ elevations that would provide more desirable building pads, improve drainage, and create more resilient redevelopment sites to accommodate potential future sea level rise,” port staff stated in a report to commissioners. Soil would be imported from other construction sites or projects under the port district’s jurisdiction, Preparations for the redevelopment of the Chula Vista Bayfront could soon be underway after the Port of San and potentially from the region’s Diego Board of Port Commissioners approved a Coastal Development Permit associated with the project.

Letters/Online Comments Re: New boating service available at Catalina Island (Jan. 27 – Feb. 9 issue)

Time constraints put on Triton won’t benefit boaters I would challenge council member Sampson to provide any data that backs up his claim that in-water hull cleaning activities introduce chemicals into the water that are hazardous to swimmers. What the City Council members fail to understand is that anti-fouling paints leach their (typically) copper biocide into the water 24/7/365, whether the boats are cleaned or not. Do in-water hull cleaning activities contribute to copper loading in the marina? Yes. But the amount is miniscule, regardless of the source. And again, there is no evidence that any of this is hazardous to swimmers. Sampson’s statement was made in ignorance. In-water hull cleaning is an important part of regular boat maintenance and thousands of boat bottoms are cleaned every day in California marinas. The ridiculous time constraints the council has put on Triton Yacht Services use of the pumpout dock means that very few boats will be able to take advantage of this

Don’t clean those boat hulls in my harbor NIMBY AFLOAT! While Marinas on the Mainland are trying to stop hull cleaning due to “the release of toxins and other bio-hazards,” I find it a little awkward that Avalon would allow hull cleaning inside the harbor. I started my working career on the water cleaning hulls, so don’t get me wrong. I know that it is a vital segment of maintenance for any vessel. What I find disturbing is that the operators want to use a float inside the harbor where tidal circulation is reduced by the arms of the two protective groins that now protect the harbor. I remember seeing the aftermath and photos of what a north-eastern wind could do to the boats and structures in Avalon. Perhaps the operators could be encouraged to conduct the hull cleaning activity outside the outer line of buoys at Descanso Bay. This would free up the inner float for other activities while at the same time providing a virtual “free buffet” feeding station See comments page 20

The California Clean Water, Climate, and Coastal Protection and Outdoor Access for All Act of 2018 would specifically ask California voters whether $3 billion in bonds should be issued to finance a “clean water, climate, and coastal protection and outdoor access for all program.” Garcia’s legislative proposal stated the bill is necessary to improve the public’s access to recreational areas, including coastal waterfronts and inland waterways. “Many Californians across the state lack access to safe parks, trails, and recreation areas, which limits their ability to experience the outdoors, improve their physical and emotional health, exercise, and connect with their communities,” the text of AB 18 stated. “Investments

NEWPORT BEACH — A founding member of the Newport Beach Harbor Commission reportedly lost his battle with Lou Gehrig’s disease. Ralph Rodheim, who once owned Balboa Boat Rentals at Newport Beach’s Fun Zone, passed away Feb. 5 after a long fight with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), according to news reports. He was 72. The one-time Wooden Hull Yacht Club member served on the Newport Beach Harbor Commission for 11 years before retiring from his post in 2013. His tenure was the commission’s longest-ever. The Harbor and Marine Uses permit in Newport Beach’s General Plan was developed during Rodheim’s time on the commission. Sailing was in Rodheim’s blood since his days as a youth, when he sailed aboard a Rhodes 33 and competed with his father in the Newport-toEnsenada Race. Later in life he purchased Madness, a Rhodes sailboat. Rodheim also sailed internationally with Chapman University students as part of a Semester at Sea program. The sailor and former harbor commissioner

also taught middle and high school. Rodheim also served in Vietnam and, after teaching, pursued a marketing career. In addition to co-founding the Newport Beach Harbor Commission, Rodheim also helped found Ralph Rodheim (right) a founding West Mark member of Newport Beach’s Harbor Commission, passed away Feb. 5.

A publicity firm will continue providing media services for Dana Point Harbor after the Orange County Board of Supervisors approved a six-digit public relations agreement.

What Happened: A $300,000 contract to provide public relations services for Dana Point Harbor was approved Jan. 24 by the Orange County Board of Supervisors. The supervisorial action also authorizes the current public relations agreement to be expanded by $34,000. O.C. Parks, which manages Dana Point Harbor, outsources its public relations management to The ACE Agency. The original contract, which went into effect in April 2016, was for $95,000. However the contract renewal reportedly includes new services worth $205,000. “Services include the redesign, maintenance and management of the harbor’s commercial website; developing content for and managing social media accounts; coordinating between O.C. Parks’ information and commercial sites; and evaluate/ calendar various public activities provided within the Harbor by boaters, merchants, operators, yacht clubs, the city of Dana Point, etc.,” county staff stated. “The additional support services are expected to improve communication and availability of information to key stakeholders, such as the Dana Point Boaters Association.” County officials said the public relations partnership would allow the staff of O.C. Parks to support improvements and operations at Dana Point Harbor. The ACE Agency would also assist county staff with outreach and other resources throughout the harbor revitalization project. “O.C. Parks staff identified a need to provide marketing and support services for the numerous events conducted at the harbor as well as the businesses operating in the harbor that generate revenue within Dana Point Tidelands Fund 108 to support harbor operations and capital improvements,” county staff told supervisors. “In [Fiscal Year] 2015-16, the marinas, retailers, hotel and leases generated approximately $27 million in revenue, and the events attracted tens of thousands of visitors to the harbor and fostered positive publicity, valuable public interactions and community engagement opportunities.” What’s On Tap: The $300,000 contract will begin April 1 and continue through March 31, 2018. County staff stated the services

offered in the public relations partnership with The ACE Agency would result in $4.5 million of earned value. “The contract with ACE includes services such as development of an annual communications/public relations plan, media, social media and website support, press releases and follow-up, promotional photography and videos and advertising. These services produce an estimated earned media value of $4.5 million annually,” county staff stated in a report to supervisors.

What’s On Tap: CenterCal would pay a minimum annual rent of $250,000 plus a portion of net operating income and increase 10 percent every five years. The minimum annual rent would increase to $1 million per year after 30 years. Rent payment begins 24 months after the lease commences. Terms of the lease run for 66 years (tidelands) and 99 years (uplands). The lease agreement was approved weeks ahead of the March 8 election, when Redondo Beach voters will approve or deny a ballot initiative seeking to limit CenterCal’s revitalization of the King Harbor waterfront. Additional reporting about the lease agreement and ballot initiative will be provided in the February 24 issue of The Log.

waterways and on average account for half of the annual boating fatalities, Marine Board funding comes primarily from motorized boating activities and most programs are focused on meeting motorized needs, the board said. The legislation, House Bill 2320, establishes a fee-based non-motorized boating program and a dedicated fund that provides grants to assist public agencies with the purchase, construction, renovation, expansion or development of non-motorized boating facilities. The fees paid by non-motorized boaters would be deposited in the new fund. The program also helps fund contracts for marine patrols in areas with significant non-motorized use, helps pay for the removal of obstructions that are deemed a hazard to navigation and sets minimum standards for boating safety courses for non-motorized boat users. Under the proposed legislation, a oneweek permit for non-motorized boating would cost $4, an annual permit would cost $12 and a two-year permit would cost $20. The Marine Board estimates the new fees would generate a little more than $2 million over the next two years. The fees, proposed by House Bill 2320, would be in addition to the present $5 annual cost of the Invasive Species Program permit users of boats over 10 feet long must purchase to fund efforts to keep aquatic invasive species out of Oregon waterways and control those already established in state waters. Information from The Associated Press and Oregon State Marine Board was used in this story.

STATE Multiple fires in the Ventura Harbor are being investigated VENTURA, California — Ventura city firefighters responded to a report of a boat fire in the Ventura Harbor on Jan. 31 at 1:46 a.m. A vessel six feet off the ground in dry-dock was fully engulfed in flames. Firefighters were able to contain the fire within 20 minutes of arrival. The boat was a complete loss. News reports and city officials stated the vessel was likely a 50-foot commercial

Yacht skippers warned kidnappings at sea are rising worldwide (LOG NEWS SERVICE) — The International Maritime Bureau’s Annual piracy report, released Jan. 10, reveals that despite the continued fall in piracy worldwide more crew were kidnapped at sea in 2016 than in any of the previous 10 years. “The continued fall in piracy is good news but certain shipping routes remain dangerous and the escalation of crew kidnappings is a worrying trend in some emerging areas,” said Pottengal Mukundan, director of IMB, who’s Piracy Reporting Center has monitored world piracy since 1991. While most attacks are against commercial vessels, the occupants of sailing vessels are not immune from attack. The Royal Yachting Association — the national governing body for sailing, powerboating and personal watercraft in the United Kingdom — reminded the boating community in a recent release to remain vigilant and to avoid navigating through waters in which pirates are known to operate.

fishing boat. However The Log received an anonymous tip from someone who witnessed the fire, claiming the vessel was a 46-foot Bertram sportfishing boat. Three other small fires were discovered in the same boat yard around the same time. These smaller fires included a propane tank of a forklift, debris in a workshop area and a smoldering rag on the stern of another boat in dry dock. Another fire involving a vehicle in the 1300 block of Spinnaker Drive occurred just prior to these fires. All the fires are suspicious in nature and are suspected to be connected. No injuries were reported. “We are reminding the boating public and people in the harbor to remain vigilant and report suspicious activity,” Harbormaster John Higgins stated. The cause of the fires is under investigation by both Ventura Police and fire arson investigators. There are some strong leads in the case, according to Higgins. He is working with investigators in locating all the video cameras in the area and helping them to get access to the footage. “I think the harbor is safe, and I think this was an isolated incident” Higgins told The Log. “The combination of the police, the fire department, security and ourselves [Harbor Patrol], we are being extra vigilant

RYA cruising manager Stuart Carruthers said: “While defensive measures and the use of armed guards on commercial shipping have had a clear deterrent effect, pirate networks still retain both the intent and capability to conduct piracy. Sailing vessels which are slow and low remain vulnerable from opportunistic attacks and hijackings.” When sailors think of pirates they are apt to think of the Indian Ocean from the east coast of Africa to the Bay of Bengal, which for years has been the center of attacks against seagoing vessels. However the kidnapping of individuals from merchant vessels and yachts occurs in many other parts of the world. For example the recent attacks and gruesome killing of several individuals aboard yachts has drawn special attention to the Sulu Sea between eastern Malaysia and the Philippines where the Abu Sayyaf militants continue to operate. Up-to-date information about piracy around the world can be found at bit.ly/2kTfUPz.

Ventura Shellfish Enterprise announces public workshop VENTURA, California — The Ventura Shellfish Enterprise (VSE), a collaborative group seeking to grow sustainably cultivated mussels in the Santa Barbara Channel near Ventura, is holding the first of a series of public workshops on Feb. 16 at 7 p.m. The workshop, in coordination with the Ventura Port District, will provide an introduction to the benefits of shellfish aquaculture and the specifics of this new proposed project for Ventura. A $300,000 federal grant has been provided to the Ventura Port District from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) through the National Sea Grant College Program. The Ventura Port District, as a member of VSE, is expected to obtain the permits and entitlements needed to cultivate mussels on leases that will be farmed by commercial fisherman and landed at existing fish off-loading facilities in the Ventura Harbor. The project has generated considerable interest in the harbor community. “The aquaculture effort will bolster commercial fishing activity in the harbor

and stimulate the local economy,” Ventura Port District General Manager Oscar Peña said. State waters off Ventura are an ideal location for the commercial bivalve shellfish operations, according to Doug Bush, a VSE partner and general manager of The Cultured Abalone Farm in Goleta. “There simply is no reason for California to consume imported shellfish when we can enjoy it fresh and locally produced, and be confident that it is grown using sustainable and responsible practices,” Bush said. As part of the grant, Coastal Marine Biolabs, a nonprofit research-based science education organization with facilities in the Ventura Harbor and a local leader in science education, is leading this comprehensive public outreach campaign to inform commercial fishermen, consumers, Ventura residents and the public of the project’s features, benefits and impacts. This is a free workshop open to the public. It will be held at the Channel Islands National Park Visitors Center, 1901 Spinnaker Drive, in the Ventura Harbor. Attendees may sign up at venturashellfishenterprise.com (click on the “Get Involved” link) or send an email to info@venturashellfish.org to be added to the mailing list and register for the workshop.

County does not complete audit of Dana Point Harbor Three promised audits left unfulfilled by AuditorController’s office after first report forced resignation of harbor director.

DANA POINT — If there is ever a court trial to prove why government gets a bad rap for being inefficient and unable to deliver on its promises then the first piece of evidence presented would be an exhibit of Orange County’s failure to publish a series of promised audit reports of Dana Point Harbor operations. Roughly nine months has passed since the Orange County AuditorController’s office publicly released an audit report on a hotel discount program at Dana Point Harbor. However county officials have not released any information of a promised follow-up report. Three other audit reports on Dana Point Harbor operations, which county officials said would be published within months of the first report, have not yet been released either.

A May 2016 audit report unveiled Orange County officials inappropriately used a hotel discount program at a Dana Point Harbor lodging venue. The county’s auditor promised several reports would follow within coming months. None of the planned follow-up reports were announced or released since the first audit report was released about nine months ago.

The Log’s multiple requests for updates on the planned audit reports were unsuccessful, as the AuditorController’s office did not respond to questions about status updates. The initial May 2016 report, which found county employees inappropriately allowing guests to rent rooms at Dana Point Marina Inn at discounted rates, resulted in the resignation of Dana Point Harbor Director Brad Gross. Auditor-Controller Eric Woolery stated in his report the hotel discount program was not authorized by the Orange County Board of Supervisors. Woolery’s office released 12 findings in an internal audit report of Orange County’s management of a hotel discount program at Dana Point Marina Inn. The report found “critical” or “significant control weakness” in eight of the 12 findings. The county auditor’s office, in a press release issued May 11, 2016, stated it would follow up on its initial report six months later. “The Auditor-Controller will conduct a follow up report in November 2016 to determine if the recommendations have been implemented and that adequate controls are in place,” county officials said in its May 11, 2016 released statement. To date no follow-up reports were publicly announced or filed. Whether Dana Point Harbor’s county managers implemented any of the AuditorController’s recommendations is not publicly known.

The Log previously reported the May 2016 audit would be followed-up by other reports looking at the harbor’s Special Revenue Operating Fund and lease with Ocean Institute. Another audit report would look at Village Marina Partners’ operations of local concessions and dry boat storage. The audit report on Dana Point Harbor’s Special Revenue Operating Fund was due to be released in summer 2016. However there is no evidence the Auditor-Controller’s office ever completed the announced report, let alone made any results public. County officials routinely conduct audits of Dana Point Harbor’s operations every 10 years, an AuditorController spokesperson previously told The Log. Dana Point Harbor itself has been the center of quite a bit of administrative activity since the May 2016 county audit report was released. County officials merged the independent Dana Point Harbor Department with O.C. Parks immediately after Gross’s resignation. Groundbreaking for the long-awaited Dana Point Harbor Revitalization project occurred in June 2016. Mark Denny, who succeeded Gross as the harbor’s interim point person at the county office, accepted a new job as Dana Point’s deputy city manager. O.C. Parks Director Stacy Blackwood was appointed to oversee harbor operations after Denny left his county position. A job announcement on the Orange

County human resources website was found a few weeks later, with officials looking to hire a full-time and dedicated harbor manager. The application period for the job opening closed Jan. 4. The status of the position is currently unknown. Meanwhile the county’s Board of Supervisors approved a $300,000 public relations contract for the harbor (see Blips on the Radar, pg. 7). Orange County’s handling of Dana Point Harbor operations during the past 20 years certainly raises questions of whether local and regional government agencies are properly managing promised deliverables. Several planned revitalizations endured years, if not decades, of public process and policymaking – and not always with positive results. Plans to upgrade Channel Islands Harbor in Oxnard, for example, stalled shortly after the Great Recession and have only recently resumed its vetting process. Portions of the waterfront have since become dilapidated. Los Angeles County began planning for a boat storage project at Marina del Rey in 1999; the project is still in the planning phase in 2017. The California Coastal Commission rejected a plan to develop about 400 acres of open land at the southwestern edge of Newport Beach. The Banning Ranch project entered the public process in the 1990s and still might continue forward despite the commission’s September 2016 decision.

to create new and improve existing parks and recreation areas, and to create trail networks that provide access from neighborhoods to parks and recreational opportunities, will help ensure all Californians have access to safe places to exercise and enjoy recreational activities.” Programs addressing climate change response, habitat protection and endangered species recovery would receive $1 billion of financial assistance from the state if the act clears the legislative process and is approved by voters. Climate adaptation and resiliency programs would receive $600 million of the $1 billion allocation, with the balance to support protections of

wildlife corridors, development of future recreational opportunities and enhancement of drought tolerance and water retention. The bill and ballot measure proposes to allocate $25 million in grant funding to programs enhancing or increasing fish and wildlife habitat, reducing water pollution and promoting adaptation of sea level rise. Another $45 million could be available for the California Ocean Protection Trust. The budget allocation would support marine wildlife programs by funding grants to support the state’s Marine Protected Areas and sustainable fisheries. The State Coastal Conservancy could receive $95 million to protect beaches, bays and coastal watershed resources.

Garcia’s proposal added California’s outdoor recreation economy is an $87 million industry contributing more than 700,000 jobs and billions of dollars into local and state revenues. Investing in outdoor recreational access, according to AB 18, would also help conserve natural resources for future generations and minimize the effects of climate change. “Continued investments in the state’s parks, trails, and natural resources, and greening urban areas will help mitigate the effects of climate change, making cities more livable, and will protect California’s natural resources for future generations,” Garcia’s proposed legislation stated. “California’s state, local, and regional park system infrastructure and national park system infrastructure

are aging, and a significant infusion of capital is required to protect this investment.” State officials could direct funding to create new or alternate means of access to local waterways and other outdoor recreational pursuits if AB 18 clears the legislative process and is approved by voters in 2018. State Sen. Kevin De Leon, D-Los Angeles, introduced a similar bill (Senate Bill 5, or SB 5) in the state senate. If the bills are approved then California voters would vote on the California Clean Water, Climate, and Coastal Protection and Outdoor Access for All Act during the statewide primary election on June 5, 2018. The act would take effect immediately if approved by voters.

TAKE ACTION Do we need the California Clean Water, Climate, Coastal Protection and Outdoor Access for All Act to protect access to outdoor recreational activity within the state? Should $3 billion be allocated to programs benefitting coastal access, climate change, habitat protection and sea level rise? Do you support the intent of the act but believe it does not require so much money? You do not have to wait until the June 2018 statewide primary election to have your voice heard.

construction or its impact on anchorage.” Public comment on the proposed final rule was accepted through early 2015. In February 2016 the Coast Guard issued an updated rulemaking notice, proposing to maintain the special anchorage area. A public hearing was scheduled for April 12, 2016. However notice of the meeting was not published until April 20, 2016 – eight days after the public hearing was held. Coast Guard officials, not surprisingly, stated no one attended the hearing.

SANTA BARBARA — A marina replacement project and an update on slip fee revenues were among the agenda items discussed at the Jan. 19 Santa Barbara Harbor Commission meeting. Phase 7 of the Marina One Replacement Project has been completed. Fingers E, F and G were all replaced; construction began in October 2016. Fingers E and G were each completed within 3 weeks, while Finger F took longer due to larger slip sizes. Plans also called for four Finger F slips to be extended. All vessels displaced during construction were relocated within the Santa Barbara Harbor. One more phase still remains in the Marina One Replacement Project. Phase 8 should be completed within one year. The Marina One Replacement Project was funded with a $14 million loan from the Department of Boating and Waterways (DBW). Depending on

the 2018 to 2019 fiscal year budget, the total amount borrowed may be $10 to $11 million. Harbor Commission and city officials plan to discuss how Santa Barbara will fund Phase 8 construction while managing overall debt. Meanwhile this year’s projected budget for slip transfers is $675,000. Harbor Commission staff stated slip transfer fee revenues are very hard to predict and one of the most challenging things to budget. To date there have been 37 slip transfers yielding $537,000 of revenue. The budget has almost been met and will depend on what types of slips are transferred. Bill Spicer was re-appointed to the Santa Barbara Harbor Commission for a third four-year term. He was first appointed to the commission in June 2009 and initially re-appointed in December 2012. Spicer’s current term will end in December 2020. He has served the commission as chair and vice chair. The 32nd annual Parade of Lights will take place Dec. 10.

Avalon continues to shape its water management policy

Avalon city officials continue to flesh out a water management plan to address freshwater supplies for Catalina Island residents and visitors. The island’s only municipality is currently following a mandatory water conservation program. Current efforts to update the city’s policy could result in short-, medium- and long-term goals to maintain a reliable year-round freshwater supply on the island.

The city is looking to add a freshwater amendment to the 2013 Avalon General Plan. By Nina K. Jussila AVALON — A freshwater master plan for Catalina Island’s only municipality could help Avalon provide locals and visitors with a year-round freshwater supply and minimize the effects of California’s cyclical drought conditions. City officials hope a freshwater master plan would eventually be approved to guide Avalon’s water management policy. If enacted, the freshwater master plan would establish 5-, 10- and 20-year goals for maintaining a reliable year-round freshwater supply to Avalon residents, businesses and visitors. The plan would include a

financing strategy and an assessment of groundwater supply as well as rainwater sources. The plan was forwarded to the Planning Commission for consideration at the direction of the Avalon City Council; council members briefly reviewed the master plan at their Dec. 20, 2016 meeting. Southern California Edison (SCE) has provided freshwater to Catalina Island since 1962. The utility company manages a desalination plant at Avalon. Avalon is currently in Stage 3 of its Mandatory Water Conservation program, The Log previously reported. Catalina officials launched a water rationing effort in August 2014; the rationing elevated to the Stage 3 level in September 2016. City staff hopes the proposed fresh-

water master plan would be included in the Avalon General Plan, which was established in 2013. Adding a freshwater amendment would be in line with the Avalon General Plan, according to city staff. Under the 2013 Avalon General Plan, the stated goals for water resources are to “achieve effective long-term management of water resources so that demand is in balance with efficient, sustainable supplies [as well as] provide a safe and adequate water supply that effectively meets the demand for the existing and future population.” The freshwater master plan’s intent is to put regulations in place by which the city can encourage SCE to follow. “City residents, business owners and the over one million tourists who visit Avalon need assurance that there will be a sustainable water supply on a year-round basis,” city staff stated. “We believe that by working … to develop a water master plan, the city and its freshwater utility can provide that assurance, provide transparency to the public and help us to secure Federal and State funds to make needed improvements.” At the Dec. 20 meeting, city staff discussed having a freshwater master plan to not only include 5-, 10- and 20-year goals, but to also be reevaluated and updated every five years to make sure needs of the city are met. “It would be of great benefit to residents and business owners to have such a plan to reassure the community that we will have a long term, stable, reliable and sustainable water source on a year round basis for Avalon,” city staff said. Residents, business owners and the

mayor expressed the need to have a plan within the next six months at the more recent City Council meeting held on Jan. 17. As Stage 3 water rationing continues during the slow season, anxiety is rising about what will happen during the summer months. “The city remains in Stage 3 drought as determined by Southern California Edison. The large amount of rain is welcome but to the best of our knowledge it will not change the current rating,” Avalon City Manager David Jinkens stated in an email to The Log on Jan. 24. “The city believes that it has sufficient water with two desalinization plants to not be in a Stage 3 drought at all. We are continuing our efforts to motivate Southern California Edison to correct the drought designation for Avalon.” SCE Senior Project Manager, Jeff Lawrence, provided an update on Stage 3 water rationing at the Jan. 17 meeting. “The Middle Ranch Reservoir level is at 133 acre feet as of Jan. 12. That is a 12 acre foot increase since Nov. 17,” Lawrence stated. “Because of the recent rain storms, the type of rain that we are getting, and the frequency of those storms, we are now at the point where the ground is saturated and we can start reaping the benefits of this water. We expect this trend to continue with the level of the reservoir increasing.” The city of Avalon continues to search for effective ways to address the island’s water shortage, and the freshwater master plan is the city’s way of keeping SCE accountable. “Our hope is that SCE will agree to work with us in this regard,” Jinkens stated. “No water master plan exists nor has SCE agreed to do one yet, but we remain hopeful.”

A submerged boat was pulled into the boat launch area of Dana Point Harbor shortly just before 4 p.m. on Jan. 29. Reader Scott Abrahamson snapped these photos of the submerged vessel being towed into Dana Point Harbor and arriving at the boat launch ramp. The vessel’s occupants were safely brought to shore, but not before making every effort to turn the boat right side up. Two of the three occupants were in the water, trying to pull the boat out, according to a Harbor Patrol blotter entry. A third person described as a small child reportedly swam to shore. Details were not released on how the boat flipped over and became submerged.

Dock Lines With Capt. Nicole Boating-related volunteer opportunities Story and photo by Capt. Nicole Sours Larson If you’re looking for a way to share your enthusiasm for recreational boating and time on the water while helping others, many worthy organizations would love to have you as a volunteer. Serving with a boating-oriented organization is also a great way for people who’ve given up their boats, for whatever reason, to remain involved. One of the joys of writing this column is discovering so many outstanding people and charitable organizations. Their direct focus and geographic operations vary, but one thing these organizations have in common: all depend on volunteer power and need your help. While space limits the number of great organizations listed, please look up and explore other local groups in your community. Most boaters, who have taken a boating safety class, are familiar with these two long-established and volunteerbased organizations. The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary (cgaux.org) and U.S. Power Squadrons (usps.org) both focus on boating safety, education and vessel safety inspections. The USCGA also does operational patrols to promote safety on the waters backing up the USCG, while USPS offers a wide array of advanced boater education seminars geared to both sailors and powerboat owners. Near and dear to my heart, as a boater and former museum director, are the wonderful maritime museums we enjoy in California. Many operate, preserve and maintain historic or replica vessels so the public can experience “life before the mast” on a restored or recreated historic vessel while also presenting exhibitions documenting the maritime life throughout our history. Most members of the “sail crews” and maintenance teams are volunteers. Among museums exhibiting ships is the Maritime Museum of San Diego (sdmaritime.org), which last year completed construction of the Spanish galleon San Salvador, built with mostly volunteer labor. The San Pedro-based Los Angeles Maritime Museum (lamaritimemuseum. org) uses volunteer crew and captains on their World War II-era tugboat. Meanwhile Los Angeles Maritime Institute (lamitopsail.org) offers sailing experiences for at-risk youth on the Irving and Exy Johnson brigantines, along with traditional exhibits and other programs. Finally the Santa Barbara Maritime Museum (sbmm.org) provides crewing opportunities on their sportfishing yacht Ranger. Many single-vessel-based organizations, including the Schooner Bill of Rights (schoonerbillofrights.com),

USS Midway Museum (midway.org) and SS Lane Victory (lanevictory.org), lighthouses and other maritime-related museums are listed at maritimemuseums.net/CA.html. Each is always in need volunteers. Helping the disabled learn to sail is the focus of San Diego-based Challenged Sailors. The all-volunteer group uses a fleet of specially designed Martin 16s to enable people with widely ranging disabilities rediscover a sense of freedom through adaptive sailing. Each participant is paired with a volunteer assistant in a

Boaters have numerous volunteer opportunities available to them, such as helping disabled sailors sail and volunteering their time at local maritime museums. Beach cleanups are also popular volunteer activities.

program everyone finds satisfying and exhilarating. No sailing experience is needed to volunteer. Disabled Sports USA (disabledsportsusa.org) has local chapters throughout California, including L.A.based Wheels to Water (wheelstowater. com), which helps wheelchair users explore the outdoors through kayaking. Reducing ocean pollution and educating boaters about clean boating practices is one focus of the Los Angeles-based Bay Foundation (santamonicabay.org), which offers many clean water-oriented programs from Santa Barbara to San Diego, including the Dockwalker program. This trains volunteers to walk the docks to educate boaters about clean and green boating practices. Los Angeles-based Heal the Bay Foundation (healthebay.org) organizes beach clean-ups and issues beach health report cards, while I Love a Clean San Diego (ilacsd.org) stages beach and community cleanups throughout San Diego. The Surfrider Foundation (surfrider. org), with local chapters throughout U.S. coastal communities and especially in California, focuses its work on activism and advocacy to protect the oceans, coast and beaches from environmental threats. Whatever your interests, there’s a volunteer organization eager for your help.

NOAA Report: Sea level rise poses consequential risk to United States A 3-foot rise in sea level would directly affect the homes of 2 million Americans, according to federal agency.

NATIONWIDE — Sea level rise is inevitable, according to a report released last month by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). At least 4 million Americans who live near the coast could be in a permanently inundated area if the sea level rises by 3 feet. More than 13 million Americans would live in a flooded area if the sea level rises by 6 feet, according to a study cited in NOAA’s Jan. 19 report. NOAA’s report predicted sea levels would consistently rise through 2100. The prediction was based on recent analytics showing an 8- to 9-inch increase in global mean sea level (GMSL) since 1880. Sea levels have increased 3 inches since 1993, the NOAA report continued. Earth’s mean sea level rose at a faster rate since 1900 than the GSML increase rate of the previous 2,800 years, according to NOAA. “Scientists expect that GMSL will continue to rise throughout the 21st century and beyond, because of global warming that has already occurred and warming that is yet to occur due to the still uncertain level of future emissions. GMSL rise is a certain impact of climate change; the questions are when, and how much, rather than if,” NOAA’s Jan. 19 report stated. The probability of sea level rise occurring by 2100 is between 33 and 66 percent, according to the NOAA report. Climate change was identified as a major factor behind rising sea levels. NOAA officials added projected sea level rise is more profound in the Western Pacific Ocean (west of Hawaii and east of Japan) than along the California and Pacific Northwest coasts. “There has been a large west-toeast difference in sea level rise rates across the Pacific Basin over the last several decades,” NOAA officials stated in its Jan. 19 report. “Trends range from much higher than the global rate [greater than 10 millimeters per year] within the Western Pacific and at several U.S. Affiliated Pacific Islands … to much less [less than 1 millimeter per year) within the Eastern Pacific and regions of the U.S. West Coast.” Ice loss from near the northern and southern poles only increases the need to prepare for the worst, NOAA officials stated. “The growing evidence of accelerated ice loss from Antarctica and Greenland only strengthens an argument for considering worst-case scenarios in coastal risk management,”

Rising sea levels could have dire consequences for coastal residents across the United States, according to a NOAA report. King Tide events, such as this one in Newport Beach in 2016, could occur much more frequently – and with higher water marks – if sea level rise is not addressed properly, NOAA officials predicted.

researchers stated in the NOAA report. “The main drivers for GMSL rise are atmospheric and ocean warming, which act to increase both the mass of the ocean, primarily through the melting of land ice (anthropogenic changes in the storage of water on land has been an additional effect), and the volume of the ocean, primarily through thermal expansion.” Protective measures need to be in place to protect high population areas from future sea level rise, a study cited within the NOAA report claimed. The February 2016 study – “Millions projected to be at risk from sea-level rise in the continental United States” – specifically predicted coastal communities will face significant threats within the next 83 years. “Sea-level rise (SLR) is one of the most apparent climate change stressors facing human society. Although it is known that many people at present inhabit areas vulnerable to SLR few studies have accounted for ongoing population growth when assessing the potential magnitude of future impacts,” the study, published in the Nature Climate Change journal, stated. Failure to address sea level rise now could result in massive population migrations by the year 2100, the study continued. “We find that a 2100 [sea level rise] of [3 feet] places a land area projected to house 4.2 million people at risk of inundation, whereas [6 feet] affects 13.1 million people – approximately two times larger than indicated by current populations. These results suggest that the absence of protective measures could lead to US population movements of a magnitude similar to the twentieth century Great Migration

of southern African-Americans,” the study said. Professors and researchers at the University of Georgia and Stetson University authored “Millions projected to be at risk from sea-level rise in the continental United States.” Failing to protect against future sea level rise would result in serious consequences, NOAA officials stated in their Jan. 19 report. “Long-term sea level rise driven by global climate change presents clear and highly consequential risks to the United States over the coming decades and centuries. Today, millions of people in the United States already live in areas at risk of coastal flooding, with more moving to the coasts every year,” the NOAA report explained. “Rising seas will dramatically increase the vulnerability of this growing population, along with critical infrastructure related to transportation, energy, trade, military readiness and coastal ecosystems and the supporting services they provide.” NOAA stated the most up-to-date science and methodology were used

to forecast impending sea level rise by 2100. The report added current sea level rise projections are just that: projections. Uncertainties still exists and much can change during the next 80-plus years. “Significant uncertainties exist about the exact trajectory (and impacts) of future climate change, limiting the value of prediction-based frameworks for long-term, climaterelated decision-making,” the NOAA report explained. “In other words, decision-makers must expect to be surprised. Planning approaches using sea level scenarios … can help manage uncertainty for continuity of mission and functionality of critical system.” Policymakers, according to NOAA, should consider several factors when planning for sea level rise, such as maintaining flexibility to take new information into account, thorough risk analyses, studying ecological and sociological thresholds and evaluating the local coastal system against items of value (housing, infrastructure, land elevations, etc.).

Ventura Port District photo

Parking management will be the focus of a study initiated by the Ventura Harbor Board of Port Commissioners. The study will look at multiple strategies to increase parking options at Ventura Harbor. The port district’s business operations manager said demand for parking at the harbor is growing.

Ventura Harbor’s Board of Port Commissioners moves forward with parking study District implements short-term parking plans while evaluating mid-term and long-term strategies. By Nina K. Jussila VENTURA — Plans to improve parking at Ventura Harbor will continue to be scrutinized as the Port District’s Board of Port Commissioners requested further studies of vehicular management. Commissioners were originally set to vote on a Parking Management Plan at its Jan. 25 meeting. However commissioners directed the plan to be changed to a Parking Management Study. Short-term, mid-term and longterm strategies were outlined in the study but without a timeline. A shortterm plan to add more parking spaces is already in place. Demand for parking at Ventura Harbor is growing because it is “a mixed-use facility,” Brian Pendleton, business operations manager for the Ventura Port District, said. Ventura Harbor is home to commercial fishing, retail shopping, dining, privately managed marinas, a small marina managed by the district and a public launch ramp. Island Packers also operates its whale watching excursions and Channel Island expeditions out of the harbor. “The launch ramp is separate from the village parking areas. The board didn’t approve nor did we ask for any changes to those parking rates that apply to the public launch ramp,” Pendleton said. The initial plan reviewed Harbor Village parking conditions and pro-

posed short-term, mid-term and longterm tactics to provide more efficient parking and to accommodate parking demands. “During the course of the discussion, we modified the report to be a study [versus a plan],” Pendleton told The Log. “Part of the thinking is that the study…did not specifically identify a particular schedule.” The Ventura Port District entered into agreements with adjacent marinas to provide additional parking spaces for harbor visitors. Ventura Isla Marina made available 150 parking spaces for Harbor Village shoppers, employees and overnight parking. Ventura Marina West II provided 40 parking spaces, which is currently being utilized by Island Packers’ overnight guests. “The middle range plan, which was the possibility of paid parking, was discussed but came to no conclusion,” Commissioner Jim Friedman stated. “The long range plan, with regard to purchasing more property to build a new parking lot or parking structure, was briefly discussed but certainly was not approved.” The Board of Port Commissioners did not take action on any paid parking program. Friedman, who once served as Ventura’s mayor, recalled the outcry from merchants and residents when the city implemented meter parking in the downtown area. However there are practical reasons to have paid parking as infrastructure costs money, Friedman pointed out. “Approval of the study basically approved the research and analysis done on all these different concepts

without approving any one particular concept for the mid- and long-term. The board did not take action to specifically approve a paid parking program. It approved the study that just looks at different concepts,” Pendleton clarified. Friedman believes the parking at Ventura Harbor is not a critical issue. “It would be so much easier if this was a seven-day-a-week problem, but it is only a two-day-a-week problem,” Friedman told The Log. “To make a major investment for a two-day-a-week problem makes the solution extremely expensive.” Parking surveys were emailed to tenants for feedback in 2012 and again in 2015. Workshops and meetings were also held to discuss issues and possible solutions for parking in Ventura Harbor. Harbor Village and a couple adjacent marinas were the focus of

L: 2 0 17 S P EuCt IA w it h F re e H a u lo t Jo b B o tt o m Pa in

these studies. “What we experienced between the two time frames from 2012 to 2015 was about a 60 percent increase in parking demand for parking spaces in the village. Now the village is predominantly used for visitors going to our retail shops and restaurants,” Pendleton said. “The marina [parking] lot, where our recreational boaters predominantly go, are managed privately and those private marina managers [determine the] parking rates. Those [parking] charges are between the boaters and the private managers directly. Our parking areas [and subsequently the study] relate to the village and beach parking lots.” A new round of surveys will likely be done this summer to access the impact (if any) the short-term changes have had on parking demands and availability, Pendleton mentioned.

Re: Lease terms for Redondo Beach’s Waterfront project raises questions (Jan. 13 – 26 issue)

Take a look at other proposed public boat launch sites “Plans to include a public boat launch ramp have been a major source of controversy in recent months, with boating interests and city leadership at odds of where to build the venue.” The major objection to the public boat launch is due to its unsafe locations. The

city’s own prior studies designated the site they now back as the least desirable. All harbor safety officials are against the newly chosen location based on safety concerns. The only reason this unsafe location was chosen was so the shopping center developer could have priority in siting retail stores. This ill-considered decision leaves the city, and probably the state of California too, open to litigation when the accidents that are predictable at this unsafe location occur. A more in-depth look at the various proposed public boat launch sites would probably be of interest to your readers. I expect many of them would be interested in a King Harbor option to launch boats, since King Harbor offers direct access to the open ocean and fish-rich Redondo Canyon upwelling in 10 minutes. They can see the Harbor Drive access road that their boat trailers will share with autos going to the shopping mall, bicycles on the coastal bike path, pedestrians and other boaters going to adjacent marinas and beach-goers. It’s a traffic nightmare. Also relevant is the fact that this boat launch site will eliminate existing boat slips in King Harbor, reducing recreational usage of the harbor in favor of retail stores and a movie theatre.

By Nina K. Jussila AVALON — The sun is about to set on Dennis Jaich’s time as Avalon’s Interim Director of Public Works, as his temporary position ends in late February. During his tenure the interim public works director has become quite fond of the only incorporated city of Catalina Island. The Log spoke with Jaich about what he has accomplished and what he hopes to see continue for the harbor in Avalon. Jaich said he was proud of Public Works’ efforts to maintain and repair the city’s sewer system. Improving Avalon Harbor’s water quality and maintaining the cleanliness of local beaches were among the advances achieved during Jaich’s tenure with Public Works. Avalon’s beaches have been off the “Beach Bummer List” for quite a while. Heal the Bay publishes a Beach Bummer List annually which indicates the most polluted California beaches based on levels of harmful bacteria. “The Public Works Department is down on the coastline every morning starting at 6 a.m. We rake and clean [around the harbor] picking up all the debris,” Jaich said.

From April to October, the Los Angeles County Health Department tests the bay water in Avalon once a week and posts the quality of the water, Jaich explained. Avalon city staff conducts its own weekly tests in several different locations along the shoreline and harbor after the L.A. Health Department completes its testing, according to Jaich. “We continue to test as it’s very important to us to keep the bay clean,” Jaich stated. The city also implemented a falconer program to help maintain water quality in the bay. Avalon employed a falconer to keep birds at bay. Falcons are predators to seagulls, pigeons and other birds, Jaich pointed out. The city deploys a falcon to deter certain birds from flying over Avalon Bay, which helps keep fecal bacteria from entering the water. Another factor taken into consideration by Public Works is the aging infrastructure of Avalon city. A sewer lateral maintenance program was implemented about four years ago, according to Jaich, and a lot of money was spent replacing and cleaning sewers. Jaich stressed the importance of keeping this up to ensure no new leaks or damages to the sewer system occur.

Dennis Jaich: Interim Director of Public Works bids adieu to Avalon

Dennis Jaich will be leaving his post as Avalon’s interim director of public works at the end of February.

The city is also implementing a $2.4 million capital improvements project in the next couple weeks, according to Jaich. A contractor will be replacing old sewer manholes and sewer piping. Sewer pump stations will be upgraded as well as electrical facilities. Almost all the homes and businesses in the city of Avalon have saltwater for the purpose of flushing toilets. It limits the demand for freshwater, since the city is still in Stage 3 of water rationing. It is important to repair and replace salt-

water valves to keep the system up and running, Jaich stressed. What’s next on tap for this skilled technical person in public works following his departure from Catalina Island? He is returning to his permanent home in San Diego. “I have a project to start down in San Diego Bay,” Jaich said. Jaich will be involved in the construction of upgrading a very large pump station which takes the majority of the sewage from the city of San Diego and pumps it underneath the bay out to Point Loma for processing. Avalon City Manager David Jinkens is sad to see Jaich leave the island. “[Jaich] has been a great resource to the City of Avalon during his tenure, and we will miss him when he leaves,” Jinkens stated in an email to The Log.

The Port of Los Angeles Harbor Cup, hosted by the Los Angeles Yacht Club and organized by Intercollegiate Sailing Association, comes to San Pedro, March 10-12. This year’s three-day regatta and intercollegiate sailing competition celebrates its 10th anniversary. College of Charleston won the POLA Harbor Cup Perpetual Trophy in 2016.

POLA Harbor Cup enters its 10th year of competitive intercollegiate sailing Ten teams are competing in the upcoming Harbor Cup regatta hosted by LAYC.

SAN PEDRO — The Harbor Cup is celebrating the 10th anniversary of its intercollegiate sailing event March 10-12. The regatta, sponsored by the Port of Los Angeles (POLA), brings together sailing teams from colleges, universities and academies throughout the United States. Intercollegiate sailing teams must make a formal request to participate, because this event is by invitation only. Participating teams must have at least one female and no more than seven crewmembers total. This year, the 10 teams participating are Cal Maritime, College of Charleston, Cork Institute of Technology, Maine Maritime, Oregon State University, UC Santa Barbara, University of South Florida, USC, U.S. Coast Guard Academy and U.S. Naval Academy. There are up to 10 races taking place over three days, with three constituting a regatta. Due to lack of wind on the final day of last year’s event, there were only nine races completed. Last year’s sailing teams experienced rain, hail and winds up to 35 knots on the first day of the races. With the record rainfall Southern California has experienced recently, it will be interesting to see what the weather brings to this year’s event. “College-level regattas are typically sailed in small one- or two-person dinghies in protected waters,” Betsy Crowfoot, event publicist, told The Log. The POLA Harbor Cup provides a rare opportunity for young men and women to enjoy offshore racing

in big boats with large competitive co-ed teams, Crowfoot conveyed. “Races are held outside of the LA breakwater just past the iconic Angel’s Gate Lighthouse (weather permitting). The windward mark is usually set near beautiful Point Fermin west of the harbor entrance, where keen-eyed spectators can watch from ashore,” Crowfoot explained. “It is raced aboard a fleet of matched 37-foot Catalina sailboats, identically rigged and maintained to promote the fairest possible competition.” The top three teams receive trophies. College

of Charleston sailed into first place last year and was awarded the Port of Los Angeles Harbor Cup Perpetual Trophy. “In 2015, Cal Maritime had very narrowly defeated College of Charleston,” Crowfoot said. In 2016, College of Charleston Cougars defeated the returning champions Cal Maritime. It will be interesting to see which team will win the coveted trophy this year. This year’s regatta is hosted by Los Angeles Yacht Club; its organizing authority is Intercollegiate Sailing Association.

National sailing competition will be held at multiple Southern California venues in February.

LOS ANGELES — The race for first to finish at Los Angeles Yacht Club’s Midwinter Around Catalina Island, held Feb. 4 and 5, was the usual shoot out between Medicine Man and Zephyrus. Zephyrus made her time on Medicine Man at Catalina’s West End, with both boats tacking up the island from Arrow Point in typical Transpac start fashion. However the fluky conditions on the backside of the island resulted in Medicine Man catching and passing Zephyrus in the storied wind shadow of the island’s East End. From that position, Medicine Man ghosted toward Dana Point in 1.3 knots of breeze. Zephyrus was able to point toward Angel’s Gate and slowly inched away, making her 35-minute 15-second handicap for the race’s final 23 miles, finishing ahead of Medicine Man by 55 seconds on corrected time and an elapsed time of 9 hours, 29 minutes and 52 seconds. Zephyrus’ crew was awarded the Mayor Norris Poulson Trophy, which was won by Medicine Man’s skillful crew in 2016.

A young angler shows off his rainbow trout he reeled in Jan. 29 at Santa Ana River Lakes. The fishing report just before his trip to the Orange County watering hole stated the trout action there was fair to good. Anglers caught at least one or two fish, according to the report, with some walking away with a stringer full of 1- to 3-pound rainbows. Trout plants are made weekly at Santa Ana River Lakes; plants include trophy fish.

Southern California fishing news

Tuna catch comes days after international regulations of commercial fishery tighten. By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — Anglers aboard Eclipse Sportfishing reported the first Pacific bluefin tuna catch of 2017 for the San Diego fishing fleet, within hours of officials on the other side of the ocean announcing commercial fisherman breached international fish catch limits of the migratory species. Eclipse posted a photo of the bluefin tuna catch on its Facebook page Feb. 6. The posting (and catch) occurred around the same time Japan Fishery Agency (JFA) announced it would set and enforce catch limits on Japan’s commercial Pacific bluefin tuna fishery. Federal and international agencies have been restricting bluefin tuna catches in recent years as the species’

biomass consistently dwindled in size in recent years. The Center for Biological Diversity, in an application to have Pacific bluefin tuna declared as endangered, cited reports claiming population of the migratory fish declined by more than 97 percent since fishing of the species began. American anglers have long since argued the restrictive catch limits unfairly target them, as they were not responsible for rapidly dwindling populations of Pacific bluefin tuna. The culprit, they maintained, are foreign commercial fisherman. The position of American anglers could be validated, at least somewhat, by JFA’s Feb. 3 announcement. JFA staff stated they are still working to confirm details but reports out of eight prefectures indicate catches of Pacific bluefin tuna by commercial fisherman went unreported, a violation of international agreements.

An Excel-lent Cow Catch SAN DIEGO — The recent rains have not stopped anglers such as Garry Ohern from boarding an offshore fishing expedition out of San Diego area landings. Ohern shows off the second cow he reeled in during his recent trip aboard Excel Sportfishing. The 207-pound yellowfin tuna was one of 9 cows brought in over the rails, according to Capt. Justin Fleck. “We have finished up at the Hurricane Bank. We departed one day early due to weather conditions. We have moved up the beach to San Quentin. We are going to finish up here fishing for yellowtail and reds and lingcod. The weather is flat calm,” Fleck said in his Jan. 28 report. “We ended up having six days at the bank. We had nine cows and everyone ended up with a couple big fish 100 pounds or better.”

“According to reports from prefectures, we confirmed new cases of suspicion related to approval as one prefecture (about 1.5 tons), unreported catch amount, etc., in 7 prefectures (about 6.7 tons), and now we continue the investigation,” JFA staff stated. “We are also seeking a correction report on catches.

Tight lines — By Parimal M. Rohit DFW permits anglers to retain canary rockfish Southern California fishery will open March 1 and remain open through Dec. 31. What’s Up: California’s Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) announced, for the first time in more than a decade, anglers would be allowed to retain canary rockfish. The species was declared overfished in 2000, however its population was recently announced as rebuilt. “The population rebuilt to healthy levels quicker than anticipated based on a combination of conservation efforts and restrictive management,” DFW staff said in a released statement. DFW announced the fishery would be open for 2017. Anglers must abide by the following statewide guidelines: • New sub-bag limit of one canary rockfish within the 10-fish rockfish, cabezon, greenling bag limit • New sub-bag limit of three black rockfish within the 10-fish rockfish, cabezon, greenling bag limit • Two-fish bag limit for lingcod; • Year-round retention of petrale sole and starry flounder at all depths. The sub-bag limit for bocaccio was eliminated. “Take and possession of bronzes-

potted rockfish, cowcod and yelloweye rockfish will remain prohibited statewide,” DFW staff stated. Bottom Line: Regulatory changes were made to the canary rockfish fishery in late 2016. The changes went into effect Feb. 7. Southern California anglers will be able to catch canary rockfish in 60 fathoms (360 feet) or less beginning March 1. The local fishery will remain open through Dec. 31. The fishery will also be open in California’s other regions according to the following schedule: • Central Coast: April 1 to Dec. 31, 50 fathoms (300 feet) or less • San Francisco: April 15 to Dec. 31, 40 fathoms (240 feet) or less • Mendocino Coast: May 1 to Oct. 31, 20 fathoms (120 feet) or less, then Nov. 1 to Dec. 31 without depth restriction • Northern Coast: May 1 to Oct. 31, 30 fathoms (180 feet) or less, then Nov. 1 to Dec. 31 without depth restriction. Additional information on recreational groundfish regulations, including in-season changes, is available via the state’s Recreational Groundfish Hotline, which is 831-649-2801. Up-to-date information is also available at wildlife. ca.gov/conservation/marine/groundfish.

IN MEMORIAM — Nellie Tanuguchi

Former San Diego area fishing gear business owner passes away Nellie Tanuguchi worked with tuna fishing boats during industry’s height. By Parimal M. Rohit SAN DIEGO — The one-time owner of a local commercial fishing gear supply firm and longtime Point Loma area resident passed away Jan. 20. Nellie Rakuko Taniguchi, who was a major part of a family-owned fishing business in San Diego, died late last month. Her cause of death was not revealed at press time. She was 93. Taniguchi came to the San Diego area in the 1950s and took over the fishing family business with her husband, Take. The business supplied fishing gear to tuna fishing boats. Her family described Taniguchi as the heart and soul of the business during her time with the company. “In the 1950s, [Nellie and her husband] both moved to San Diego and proceeded to start a family and worked at the small family fishing business. Nellie was the heart and an integral part of the family business,” her family said in a released statement. “Nellie worked

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

SALTWATER OCEAN FISHING REPORT By Terrence Berg 976-TUNA.com GENERAL UPDATE: Very light fishing pressure all along the coast the final days of January 2017, even with better weather conditions in recent days. Many boats are in dry dock for maintenance and repairs, and many landings are simply not running trips right now during the rockfish season closure. MEXICAN ROCKFISH AND YELLOWTAIL: The action in Mexican waters for the San Diego fleet has been up and down for yellowtail over the past week, but it remains excellent for rockfish. Most trips are 1.5-days or longer. The yellowtail bite at Colonet was good late last week, lulled over the weekend and was picking up again mid-week. Pacific Queen out of Fisherman’s Landing reported from its 1.5-day trip to Colonet. By 10:30 a.m. on Feb. 1, the 22 anglers on board had full limits of yellowtail – 110 forkies. Tribute out of Seaforth Sportfishing returned from a 1.5-day trip Jan. 29; the 34 anglers on board had just two yellowtail, 90 whitefish, 90 rockfish and three lingcod. Relentless out of H&M Landing returned from its 1.5-day trip Jan. 29 with 16 anglers and had limits of 160 rockfish. Dominator out of Point Loma returned from a 1.5-day trip Jan. 27, and the 22 anglers on board had 34 yellowtail and 110 rockfish. Outer Limit, also out of Seaforth had 14 anglers aboard a two-day trip and landed just one yellowtail along with 140 rockfish and 17 lingcod. Eclipse, also out of Seaforth, had 16 anglers on a 2.5-day trip and landed 107 yellowtail, 65 rockfish, 43 red rockcod, eight barracuda, and two lingcod.

SAN DIEGO LOCAL: The half- and three-quarter-day boats fishing Mexican waters have been averaging about two to four mixed rockfish, whitefish and other bottom fish per rod. The local boats fishing U.S. waters are seeing a pick on bass and sculpin. Premier out of H&M Landing targeted bass and sculpin on its two Jan. 29 trips, and the 15 anglers on the morning trip had 15 sand bass and seven sculpin, while the 16 anglers on the afternoon trip had 33 sculpin, seven sand bass, and two calicos. Dolphin out of Fisherman’s Landing had seven anglers on its Monday half-day and they landed eight sand bass, three sculpin, two calicos and a bonus halibut. LOS ANGELES-ORANGE COUNTY UPDATE: With the rockfish season still closed, the handful of half- or three-quarter-day boats running at landings out of Los Angeles and Orange county have seen a pretty fair pick on bass, sculpin and perch. Monte Carlo out of 22nd Street Landing had 25 anglers on its Jan. 24 half-day trip and landed 75 perch, 18 sand bass, 10 sculpin and six calico bass. New Del Mar out of Marina del Rey Sportfishing had 37 anglers on its Jan. 24 half-day trip and landed 126 sculpin, 35 sand dabs, 16 sand bass, 10 perch, five calico bass, one triggerfish and one sole. Spitfire, also out of Marina del Rey, had 10 anglers on its Jan. 24 three-quarter-day trip and landed 50 sculpin, 12 sand bass, 10 calico bass and one triggerfish. CHANNEL ISLANDS SAND DABS: While sand dabs are being picked up all along the coast on half-day trips, the Gentleman out of Channel Islands Sportfishing has been running threequarter-day trips targeting the little flatfish every Sunday. This past weekend, there were 44 anglers on this trip, and they landed over 1,500

sand dabs -- or about 35 each.

San Diego, 619-222-1164.

INSTRUCTIONAL CHARTERS: The 976-TUNA instructional charters will begin again starting the spring of 2017.
