Three marine-themed proposals repackaged and repurposed AB 3211, SB 1017 and SB 1047 were all rewritten as legislators head into final stretch of legislative session.
SACRAMENTO — A trio of bills introduced earlier this year to regulate fisheries, vessel machinery and the collection of environmental data have all been altered one way or another as legislators prepare to make a final push for their proposals to make it to the governor’s desk ahead of this November’s elections. Senate Bill 1017 (SB 1017), for example, shifted from clarifying language within the Marine Life Management Act of 1998 to developing a voluntary permit transition program for the drift gillnet shark and swordfish fishery. Senate Bill 1247 (SB 1247), meanwhile, was tweaked to provide law enforcement officials with clarity on chemical testing and operating a vessel under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Then there’s Assembly Bill 3211 (AB 3211), which is now a proposal dealing with health care directives (compared to an earlier version of the bill that dealt with compliance in environmental data compliance).

Two proposals in the State Senate and another one in the Assembly were repackaged during the current legislative session. SB 1247, for example, initially clarified the definition of vessel machinery but was repurposed as a bill giving more power to peace officers patrolling the water. Another bill proposing to make minor changes to the state’s environmental data collection requirements is now an attempt to update the Health Care Decisions Law.
SB 1017 – Marine Fisheries Observer SB 1017, which was introduced by State Sen. Ben Allen, D-Santa Monica, originally sought to update state law by specifically defining the word “observer” in the context of managing California’s sport and commercial marine fisheries never really made it that far in the process. The bill was rewritten and now aims to regulate permitting and property rights within the shark and swordfish fishery. “This bill would require the department … to develop a voluntary permit transition program … and to imple-
ment the program upon appropriation by the legislature of private or federal funding received by the department for this purpose. The bill would increase the fee for a DGN permit that expires on March 31, 2019, to $482.75,” language of SB 1017 now states.
SB 1247 – Vessel Machinery SB 1247, introduced by State Sen. Ted Gaines, R-Redding, in mid-February, originally proposed to update a law regulating negligent or reckless use of a vessel. The bill specifically aimed to update the definition of “machinery” to include sail, rigging, rudder, oar, paddle or other similar gear.
Gaines’ bill now proposes to give law enforcement some clarity of action when dealing with under the influence situations. “This bill would … authorize a peace officer having reasonable cause to believe that any person was operating a vessel … or manipulating any water skis, aquaplane, or similar device under the influence of an alcoholic beverage or any drug, or both, who lawfully arrests such a person for such a violation, to request that the person submit to that chemical testing of his or her blood, breath, or urine,” language of the bill stated.
AB 3211 – Environmental Data Assembly member Ash Kalra, D-San Jose, introduced AB 3211 to make non-substantive revisions to legislative findings and declarations associated with the state’s environmental data reporting requirements. AB 3211 is now a bill attempting to update the Health Care Decisions Law. “This bill would revise and recast the portion of the form relating to a person’s donation of his or her organs, tissues, and parts, as specified, and would include a provision relating to authorizing an agent to consent to any temporary medical procedure if necessary for purposes of that donation,” language of the bill stated.

The Ocean’s Wilderness is Rapidly Disappearing: Why is This 2C Strange and What Does it Mean for Ecosystems Around the World? By Devon Warren WORLDWIDE — The word “wilderness” probably conjures images of pioneers trekking across a largely unexplored territory in early American history, but less than 200 years later these uncharted stretches – even in the ocean – are vanishing. A small percentage of the ocean’s wilderness, about 13 percent from data gathered by a study from Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), is now thought to be untouched by human hands. Wilderness is defined by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as “a large area of unmodified or slightly modified land, and/ or sea retaining its natural character and influence, without permanent or significant habitation, which is protected and managed so as to preserve its natural condition.” Both mar-
NEWS BRIEFS Storms force swimmer to suspend attempt to cross Pacific By KEN MORITSUGU Associated Press TOKYO (AP) — Severe storms have forced a French-American long-distance swimmer to suspend his attempt to become the first person to swim across the Pacific Ocean. Ben Lecomte and the yacht accompanying him have
velous and terrifying, humans have conquered nearly all of the ocean’s vastness. Commercial fishing and seafaring-related professions are often cited among the most dangerous professions in the world, yet human curiosity does not stop us from setting sail to faraway places or to vacation to largely unblemished lands such as Alaska (the only state with a formidable wilderness), Antarctica or the North Poles. Many readers of this humble publication feel more at home on a rocky sailboat, drifting through the waves than they do sitting at home on the couch. Just a few benefits of wilderness, according to the Pew Research Center, is clean drinking water, economic boons, a thriving wildlife and the refuge of experiencing these quiet, peaceful areas away from the now bustling human city life. With the invention of plastics that litter the ocean, some
destructive and illegal fishing methods (for instance, the gillnet’s impact on the critically endangered vaquita porpoise), toxic oil spills and the hordes of uncaring tourists who cause damage to the environment, the destruction of the ocean’s wilderness, and the lack of drive to protect it, could possibly impair it forever. Looking ahead, Kendall
Jones, a conservation planning specialist with WCS, told Live Science the United Nations is currently debating action to allow designation for these areas, but relief would come from pursuing conservation efforts for the last intact places and individually working to save species and ecosystems from going extinct.
returned to a port in Yokohama, Japan, to wait out the weather, his team said in an email response to questions. The 51-year-old swimmer has completed about 800 kilometers (500 miles) of the 8,000-kilometer (5,000-mile) journey to San Francisco since leaving Choshi, a city on the Japanese coast, nearly two months ago. The journey was expected to last six to eight months with Lecomte swimming about eight hours a day. “The weather, there’s nothing I can change about it,” he was
quoted as saying in an online post by Seeker, a San Franciscobased digital media outlet that is documenting the swim. “I’m not going to stress about it. I’m not going to put thought into it. It is what it is, and that’s all.” The swim was suspended on July 27. When the weather calms, his team plans to return to where Lecomte left off so he can resume his swim. The typhoon season is underway in the Pacific, and three major storms were converging on the 20-meter (67-foot) yacht. One
of them, Tropical Storm Jongdari, struck Japan last weekend. The port call in Yokohama will also allow the team to repair an electric motor on a dingy that escorts Lecomte as he swims. Lecomte, who was born in France and lives in Austin, Texas, has been surprised by the volume of plastics and other trash he has encountered, a news release from Seeker said. One goal of the swim is to raise environmental awareness about the oceans.

The Audi of Lifestyles This is an incredible lifestyle – quirky, fun, individual and often less expensive. I love every part of living on the water, getting rocked to sleep, etc. Boiling this down to purely an economic decision misses the point – it is like comparing the cost of two vehicles and deciding that one is simply not worth it because it is more expensive and harder to maintain. If that were the case, no one would ever buy an Audi. Mark Nicholas
Tips From a Seasoned Liveaboard Tenant I have lived aboard legally for over nine years and love it, including the maintenance, etc., and work from home. I always tell people who think about it to borrow a friend’s boat and (legally) stay aboard for as long as possible. They have to learn that possessions mostly must go, storage is at a premium, closet space for clothing is limited, etc. then, if comfortable, get on a waiting list or five at a marina
they like. Most have many year waiting lists, if they will even give a timeframe. Long Beach has a list so long they can’t begin to tell you and charge a yearly fee to stay on the list. If VERY fortunate, you might find a marina that has a liveaboard boat for sale, but see if they will allow you to retain the permit and boat there. Some marinas may want the boat removed and will not renew the slip if sold. Last, be wary of sellers who say their 32-foot boat is a great liveaboard and be sure to ask the marina what the minimum length requirement they have is. One more important fact: Boats do not sell as fast as a house. A house in today’s market may sell in two weeks at more than the listing price. The boat may take two years to sell, and sell for less than hoped for, so if you buy, move aboard and decide you hate it, you’re stuck with slip fees, insurance, maintenance costs, etc, while trying to sell. I have known a few people who literally walked away and left their boat. Larry Nelson

Underwater? California summit hopes to address sea level rise Plenty of policymakers and thought leaders will be chatting about the prospect of rising waters, but are boaters included in discussion? By Parimal M. Rohit
STATEWIDE — A lakeside marina in Northern California (a few miles west of Redding) was among the many structures lost to the raging Carr Fire. Other marinas in Southern California could be lost, too, but to rising oceans (if the sea level rise predictions come true). Thought leaders and policymakers will descend upon San Francisco in a few weeks to discuss sea level rise and climate change at the Global Climate Action Summit. It’s unclear whether the summit would be dominated by talking heads touting doomsday scenarios or pushing for the United States to sign back onto the Paris Climate Agreement. Just as unclear is whether attendees and conveners will develop substantive direction on sea level rise and its potential effect on the boating
world. Organizers, however, are positioning the summit, which takes place Sept. 12-14, as bringing world leaders together to celebrate platitudes on climate action. The California Coastal Commission discussed sea level rise at its August meetings in Redondo Beach. Coastal Commission staff stated the summit would emphasize the need to address climate matters such as sea level rise. Several Southern California jurisdictions are already working on plans to protect coastlines, marinas and other areas adjacent to the Pacific Ocean. Potentially complementing those efforts was the resolution commissioners reviewed and discussed on July 9. “Loss of beaches, shorelines and related coastal habitats from the effects of sea level rise and shoreline development will further impact California residents and visitors’ ability to access and recreate along the coast,” Coastal Commission staff stated in a report to commissioners. “In addition, average temperatures are rising, leading to increased demand for beach See STANDING WATCH page 7

A winery built out of boats by J.R. Johnson
By Parimal M. Rohit ENSENADA, Baja California — The Log’s previous issue delved into the dining options available for boaters who navigate south of the border into Ensenada. Those who frequent the city often also know Ensenada’s Guadalupe Valley to be a destination for wine aficionados. Did you know one of the wineries in the Guadalupe Valley is built, in part, from recycled boats? Vena Cava, which was founded in 2005 by Phil and Eileen Gregory, features boats re-purposed as vaulted ceilings. The winery has been featured by several lifestyle and news publications, including Esquire and NPR. It was also referenced in an April 2017 New York Times article. “This six-room desert inn [La Villa del Valle] has an outdoor pool and yoga studio, excellent Mexican breakfasts, a winery made from recycled boats, and an acclaimed restaurant,” the Times article stated. Architects Alejandro D’Acosta and Claudia Turrent, who are based in Ensenada, built Vena

Cava. They specifically used discarded boats – found at a local port – to create vaulted ceilings. Discarded lenses from an eye factory were also used. “The [winery] that was designed by the Architect Alejandro D’Acosta, stands out for its original design, taking up the use of boats and other materials that today have a new life and purpose,” the winery’s website briefly stated. Guadalupe Valley is often referred to as the Napa of Mexico. Boaters can make their way to one of Ensenada’s marinas and then organize ground transportation into Guadalupe Valley.

recreation areas that provide free or low cost opportunities to recreate and exercise in cooler temperatures and cleaner air,” Coastal Commission staff continued. “These impacts will be disproportionately felt by people who cannot afford to live in close proximity to the ocean to access and recreate along the coast.” California’s Ocean Protection Council adopted a similar resolution on July 25. The Global Climate Action Summit itself functions as a disruptive event, as organizers are seeking entrepreneurial proposals to address some of the environmental challenges people along the coast could face if predicted doomsday scenarios actually become reality. What would happen, for example, if the sea walls of Newport Beach can’t defend locals from the rising seas? Could marinas in San Pedro, Wilmington and Long Beach be submerged? What about similar venues at Glorietta Bay in Coronado or Harbor Island in San Diego? Officials at the Port of San Diego have made a case for being proactive. Port district staff, in previous coverage in The Log, made case for taking action today to prevent predicted doomsday scenarios of the not-too-distant future. Harbors and marinas do not have to suffer from predicted sea level rise if proper action is enacted now and consistently implemented moving forward. An article published by Quartz on July 25, however, made an interesting

case for retreat as the best-case solution to sea level rise. “The seas will only continue to rise. Coastal communities in the U.S. can expect waters anywhere from 2.5 feet to 10 feet higher by 2100,” the Quartz article stated. “For coastal communities in places like Florida, Louisiana, California, New York, and Maine, that gloomy future is already here.” One community – a Native American tribe on Louisiana’s Isle de
Jean Charles – was cited as an example of a gloomy present. The tribe was awarded a federal grant after it decided to abandon the island and resettle further inland. Stories like this one makes one wonder whether Quartzsite Yacht Club in Western Arizona would become an actual destination for boaters if harbors in Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego fall victim to sea level rise. Of course there are those who argue
sea level rise is nothing more than speculation and we really won’t experience a 2.5 to 10 feet increase in water levels by 2100. Who knows, maybe the science doesn’t prove true. Perhaps the situation would play out exactly as anticipated. The ultimate question is what sensible actions should we be pursuing today to protect our marinas and harbors, regardless of how extreme some climate change predictions might be.
TAKE ACTION Here are a few people you can contact to find out more about the upcoming Global Climate Action Summit. Ask them about potential policies or game plans they have to address sea level rise or coastal flooding. What actions are being implemented to address failing infrastructure, such as aging sea walls in Long Beach and Newport Beach? Who is advocating for retreat? Are members of the boating industry being consulted by the Coastal Commission, Ocean Protection Commission or Global Climate Action Summit attendees when contemplating future policies on sea level rise? Who is advocating for boaters?

Diamond Valley Lake and marina re-opens after algae bloom event What Happened: The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California officially re-opened Diamond Valley Lake (and its marina) on July 27 – about five weeks after the lake’s waters were infested with an algae bloom. Water district staff stated the harmful effects of the bloom had diminished enough to allow the lake and marina to be re-opened. “Recreational activities, including boating, fishing and hiking, had been suspended at Diamond Valley Lake near Hemet in southwest Riverside County since June 21 after the cyanotoxins, produced by a bloom of cyanobacteria, were detected,” water district staff said in a released statement. “The blue-green algae bloom—one the largest ever experienced at the lake since it opened to the public for recreation in October 2003—produced large areas of green water and mats of green scum floating on the lake. “Blue-green algae blooms are common this time of year because of the warm weather,” the water district statement continued. “During the current episode, the bloom released cyanotoxins, which in high concentrations can be harmful to humans and animals, especially when ingested. What’s On Tap: While the lake and marina are officially re-opened everyone is warned to avoid remaining algae or green material in the lake or on the shore. “Visitors also are instructed not to let their service animals drink lake water or swim in the lake,” water district staff stated. “Any fish caught at the lake should be cleaned with tap or bottled water before cooking, and the guts of fish thrown away. Metropolitan water quality experts, however, assured the public that the quality of the district’s treated drinking water has not been affected.

Group will sue New Hampshire hatchery for pollution CONCORD, New Hampshire (AP) — An environmental group plans to file a federal lawsuit against New Hampshire’s largest hatchery over allegations that runoff from the facility is polluting nearby rivers and lakes. The Conservation Law Foundation announced it sent a notice to sue to the New Hampshire Fish and Game Departments and its commissioners over discharges from the Powder Mill Fish Hatchery in New Durham. It alleges that hatchery wastewater over the past several years has caused “significant water quality violations” in the Merrymeeting River and nearby waterways, including cyanobacteria blooms that harms public health and impacts recreational activities. The hatchery is one of the state’s largest and raises several fish species. The foundation alleges that the hatchery has released phosphorous, nitrogen and other pollutants in violation of the federal Clean Water Act.
Navy’s first female admiral has died ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Rear Admiral Alene Duerk, the Navy’s first female admiral, who became a trailblazer as the Navy opened up more opportunities for women, has died. She was 98 years old. Duerk died on July 21, according to a news release last week from the Naval History and Heritage Command. No cause

of death was given. She had been living in a suburb of Orlando, Florida. Duerk was born in Definance, Ohio, in 1920. After graduating from nursing school at Toledo Hospital in 1941, she entered the U.S. Naval Reserve and was appointed an ensign in the Nurse Corps. During World War II, she worked on a hospital ship off the Marshall Islands in the Pacific and later treated Allied troops who had been prisoners of war. With the war ended, Duerk was released from active service in 1946 while she was stationed at Naval Hospital Great Lakes. She earned a bachelor’s degree at Western Reserve University in Cleveland and then returned to active duty in 1951 as a nursing instructor at Naval Hospital Corps School in Portsmouth, Virginia. Over the decades, she would serve in hospitals in Chicago, San Diego, Washington, and Yokosuka, Japan. She was appointed director of the Navy Nurse Corps in 1970. In her new role, she expanded the Navy’s areas of nursing into pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, ambulatory care and anesthesia. Pres. Richard Nixon approved her selec-
tion as the first female rear admiral in 1972. She retired three years later but remained an advocate for Navy nursing for decades more. Duerk never married and had no children, but she was close to her nephews and niece, according to the Orlando Sentinel.

Channel Islands Harbor awarded TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence for two years in a row OXNARD, California — The Ventura County Harbor Department recently announced Channel Islands Harbor has earned the TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence award for the second year in a row; the harbor now has certificates for 2017 and 2018. TripAdvisor, since 2010, has awarded the Certificate of Excellence to establishments who consistently achieve a bubble rating of at least four out of five, have a minimum number of reviews and must have been listed on TripAdvisor for at least 12 months. This worldwide recognition accounts for the quality, quantity and recency of reviews submitted by travelers at the TripAdvisor website. Channel Islands Harbor became the first recreational harbor in Ventura County n 1965; it is owned and operated by the county and consists of 301 acres of water and land.
The majority of the Harbor is operated by businesses with long-term leases by the Ventura County Board of Supervisors. Channel Islands Harbor is highly rated on TripAdvisor in the “top things to do” and “a good place for quiet seekers” categories. “Receiving this recognition is a credit to all lessees and businesses who make the Channel Islands Harbor a great place to live and visit,” Ventura County Harbor Department Director Mark Sandoval said. “There is no greater seal of approval than being recognized by our visitors.

Re: Illegal charters and short-term vacation rentals: two peas in a pod (July 27-Aug. 9 issue)
Lack of Respect I have been allowing my boat to be chartered for 5 years now. I use a management company that has sailing classes and offers charters to those certified new sailors or other vetted sailors. I also have served as captain on other boats. Yes, I am a USCG licensed captain to 50 ton. I think the problem I am seeing in my marina is the lack of respect that these people who know nothing about boats, marinas, or being neighborly show to others around them. And the boat owners take little to no responsibility (the real problem). The bottom line is if you are taking money for either allowing people to stay on your boat or to take them out, you are a business. You are required to pay all fees and taxes associated with owning a business, and should not be allowed to run your business in an area that is not zoned for such a business. Furthermore the renters should absolutely not be allowed to use/ destroy the marina facilities. Jeff

Two harbor commissioners, Betsy Cramer and Jim Sloan, were forwarded to serve on the Santa Barbara subcommittee on sea level rise.
Santa Barbara subcommittee to be formed to survey sea level rise Harbor Commission members Jim Sloan and Betsy Cramer will serve on advisory board. By Devon Warren SANTA BARBARA — Sea level rise is an enduring topic in California with the flooding causing damage, emergency situations and more. In an effort to get ahead of impending disturbance by this phenomenon, the city of Santa Barbara has been working to address the problem along with the rest of the state. At the Harbor Commission meeting that took place on July 19, Waterfront Facilities Manager Karl Treiberg gave a presentation about the scope of a local Sea Level Rise coastal plan and a city subcommittee of elected officials to give direction about the project. The subcommittee would consist of three council members, two planning committee members, and one serving on each the harbor commission, parks and recreation department and water commission. Discussion between the commissioners ensued with Betsy Cramer raising the question of forwarding two commissioners for input instead of one since it was largely an issue that would impact the harbor department. The commissioners voted to forward Commissioners Betsy Cramer and Jim Sloan to serve on the subcommittee citing their devotion to the issue of sea level rise. A contract between the city and a Northern California firm Environmental Science Associates was approved in February 2018. Grant money from the California Coastal Commission will go towards the local coastal plan, which addresses an interim review policy from sea level rise development and preparation for a sea level rise adaptation place. The plan will assess the vulnerability of the sea walls at the years 2030, 2060 and 2100 in accordance with statebased guidance, frequency of flooding, erosion and other impacts as well as financial impacts. Sea level rise has been a hot agenda item up and down the state, with City Halls and coastal agencies fleshing out the topic ad nauseam. The U.S. Navy
and Port of San Diego, for example, agree to jointly address the potential effects of sea level rise in the Southern California metropolis. City Councils in Newport Beach and Avalon have also held various discussions on sea level rise. The California Coastal Commission discussed shoreline preservation and its sea level rise guidance policy on Aug. 9. Legislators in Sacramento, of course, have proposed and/or approved a myriad of bills addressing sea level rise in some capacity. Gov. Jerry Brown signed Assembly Bill 184, for example, into law last year. The bill extended the life of a statewide sea level rise database.

Chula Vista Bayfront is finally seeing some action

which would be a Marriott property and house about 1,600 rooms. The hotel would also include 275,000 square feet of useable convention and meeting space, plus retail shops, recreational facilities, pool, lazy river and restaurant/ bar/lounge combination. Development of the Chula Vista Bayfront project is a joint planning effort involving the city of Chula Vista and Port of San Diego. The redevelopment of the Chula Vista Harbor area is expected to yield nearly 2,000 added jobs and $1 billion in added revenue, as previously reported in The Log. Plans to upgrade the Chula Vista Harbor area has been in the works for 16 years now, though the project timeline has not been quite as long as the proposed redevelopment of Dana Point Harbor in South Orange County.
CHULA VISTA — Dana Point Harbor does not have a monopoly on long-anticipated development projects. Plans to upgrade the area surrounding Chula Vista Harbor have been in the works since 2002, and only now are such plans starting to become evident. It would appear as if the first major domino of the construction process has already fallen, what with the Port of San Diego recently announcing soil was being imported to the Chula Vista Bayfront area. Work on the imported soil began on July 16, according to port district staff. Importation of the soil throughout the back half of summer is expected to cause traffic delays near Chula Vista Harbor, port district staff stated in a released statement. “The soil is needed to increase elevation to accommodate future potential sea level rise and to improve drainage,” port district staff stated.

State DPR reminds boaters of new copper paint regulations New policy went into effect July 1; final list of regulated paints is not yet available.
SANTA BARBARA — California’s recreational boaters are officially navigating through a new set of regulations for antifouling paints, or AFPs. The state’s Department of Pesticide Regulations’ (DPR) new requirements officially went into effect on July 1, governing what types of bottom paints boaters could use without harming local marine life. A DPR representative attended the Santa Barbara Harbor Commission meeting on July 19 and spoke with commissioners about the new regulations and what it could mean for boaters. Paint manufacturers, under recently updated state law, are no longer allowed to import or sell noncompliant paints to dealers of retailers. The manufacturers, however, can continue to sell or use noncompliant paints currently in stock through June 30, 2020. DPR officials implemented a new set of regulations surrounding AFPs on July 1; the new regulations govern “the rate at which copper can leach into the ocean from anti-fouling paints,” Santa Barbara Harbor Operations Manager Mick Kronman said. “This is a major regulatory step being undertaken,” Kronman continued. “These regulations … will govern the types of bottom paints distributed by manufacturers and available to boatyards and recreational boaters.” Aniela Burant, an environmental scientist with DPR, said copper from antifouling paints is considered a biocide and, hence, subject to DPR regulation. Southern California’s saltwater marinas have the highest concentration of copper in the state, according to Burant. She added a DPR study found nearly 33 percent of waters in these marinas posed an “acute” (or short-term) threat to local organism. More than half of the saltwater marinas studied were a “chronic” (or long-term) threat to marine life.

New copper paint regulations went into effect on July 1, state officials reminded boaters at a recent Santa Barbara Harbor Commission meeting. The new regulations restrict manufacturers from offering certain boat bottom paints.
The excess levels of copper in the waters of Southern California’s saltwater marinas triggered a series of regulatory actions, Burant told commissioners. Burant reminded commissioners of the state law - 3 CCR Section 6190 governing AFPs for recreational boaters. The regulation specifically prohibits copper-based antifouling paints and coatings with a pre-established leach rate. The regulation, which went into effect July 1, does not apply to excursion vessels, fishing boats, passenger ferries or tugboats. More than 90 AFP products are registered with DPR as being compliant (not exceeding mandated leach rate ceiling). Pettit Vivid antifouling paint could
be an example of a compliant product, according to Burant. Boaters are urged to refer to the labeling posted on the AFPs can, as it doubles to inform users whether the paint is legal. The labeling for Hempel’s Antifouling Olympic Hi, for example, features a “Danger” warning, meaning it could be safe for commercial boaters (fishing boats, Navy vessels, etc.) but not recreational boats. DPR is still putting together a list of approved paints, Burant told commissioners. She added she personally is not involved with enforcement of AFPs but state officials to conduct marketplace inspections to determine whether paints
sold in California are registered to be here and have DPR approved labeling. A portion of Burant’s presentation mentioned mitigation strategies. “We understand it takes time to see reductions in copper concentrations in marinas and harbors and boatyard capacity for turnover is limited. I think that we can accomplish reductions in copper concentrations in marinas,” Burant said. Commissioner Lang Sligh asked Burant why commercial vessels are exempt under the DPR regulation. Burant replied recreational boats stay in a marina or harbor for longer periods of time, meaning they pose a higher risk of leaching than commercial or Navy vessels. “There’s not a lot of inflow and outflow [in marinas], and so it’s kind of a big bathtub. The commercial vessels and the military and government vessels, they’re often in and out and not staying for long periods of time in a harbor or in a marina,” Burant told Sleigh. “Since the recreational vessels are there for long periods of time they leach out right into the marina.” Commissioner Merit McRae, meanwhile, asked questions about enforcement staff and leach rate calculations. Boaters who have questions about the DPR policy on AFPs and copper paints can reach Burant at 916-445-2799 or aniela.burant@cdpr.ca.gov.
U.S. Boat Makers Feel Crunch From Trump Tariffs NATIONWIDE — American boat makers are getting pummeled on multiple fronts by tariffs and stand to be among the industries hardest-hit in an escalating trade war. Pres. Donald Trump’s decision to impose tariffs on imported steel and aluminum has driven up the price of those essential materials for many boat makers. Europe, Canada and Mexico retaliated with tariffs on American-made boats. Meanwhile, new tariffs imposed on parts such as engines and navigation equipment imported from China are also pushing up costs. As a result, they are selling fewer boats, considering raising prices and bracing for layoffs across an industry that employs

650,000 people in the United States at manufacturers, marinas and dealers. “We have the unfortunate situation of being caught up in every part of this trade war,” Nicole Vasilaros, of the National Marine Manufacturers Association, said. Industry leaders met with Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross and trade representatives and tried to make the case this is a truly American industry being used as a pawn in a trade war. Ninety-five percent of the boats sold in the U.S. are made in America. The timetable for many manufacturers thinking about layoffs is in the next two to three months, Vasilaros said.

“The president’s trying to help U.S. manufacturing, but we are the key case to show that he’s doing the exact opposite,” she said. The industry, Vasilaros said, is being specifically targeted for retaliatory tariffs by countries wishing to make a point to Trump. It now faces retaliatory tariffs of 10 percent in Canada, 15 percent in Mexico and 25 percent in the European Union. That means a yacht that once cost $2 million for a European buyer now goes for $2.5 million. Those three markets represent 69 percent of the U.S. export market, according to the NMMA. -LOG News Service

Redondo Beach officials work towards rebuilding Sportfishing Pier
By Devon Warren
and fishing charters with special events such as tall ship festivals coming in at the bottom. Advantages of the sportfishing focus were cited as low initial upfront investment, employment assets for all ages and the chance to promote local business and revenue for the city. The problematic areas were reported in keeping up the ongoing maintenance, limitations of floating dock and boat access and environmental concerns such as pollution and trash. In terms of boat access, the city has been working to add a boat ramp. Mark Hansen, a member of King Harbor Yacht Club and a recreational boater, told The Log he is generally happy with the direction the rebuilding is going and excited about potential new amenities. Three conceptual designs for the pier were also presented. After review, the preferred design is slated to be announced by September. In terms of the physical and environmental constraints involved with rebuilding the pier, building will take into account the Environmental
REDONDO BEACH —CenterCal’s waterfront project has caused quite a bit of controversy and was recently declared “dead” by some members of the Redondo Beach City Council. Plans to rebuild Sportfishing Pier at King Harbor, however, appear to be going relatively smooth. City officials met a July 1 deadline to obtain feedback on a survey regarding work on the pier. Previously, Geraldine Trivedi, a civil engineer for Redondo Beach, had said that the largest amount of feedback from voters saw a desire for continued sportfishing-centered activities. Among the other choices of features and amenities on the survey included a focus on commercial operations (water taxis and ferry services) a floating dock for an SUP/ kayak launch or dock and dine, a space for special events, outdoor features (fire pits and benches) and building spaces for restaurants and local businesses.

Port of Los Angeles releases prospectus in hopes of attracting private developer to execute ambitious project – just like everywhere else. By Parimal M. Rohit
SAN PEDRO — Another swath of Southern California’s waterfront will look dramatically different than it does now, as the Port of Los Angeles announced its intentions to seek a vendor for commercial development at the highly touted L.A. Waterfront project. The San Pedro project is the latest in a string of modernizations, redevelopments and revitalizations along Southern California’s urban coast. Cities, counties and port districts are already pursuing coastal redevelopments in Chula Vista, Downtown San Diego, Dana Point, Alamitos Bay Marina in Long Beach and Marina del Rey. A multi-million-dollar plan to revitalize the King Harbor area in Redondo Beach is currently in a heated legal battle and might never come online as proposed. Plans to redevelop portions of San Pedro to attract visitors, meanwhile, appear to becoming more real as the Port of Los Angeles released information on potential commercial developments for the L.A. Waterfront project. A

formal Request for Qualifications (RFQ) and Request for Proposals will follow later this year. The port district’s Waterfront Commercial Development Group specifically released a four-page prospectus, Aug. 6. The prospectus provides potential development vendors with details about the L.A. Waterfront opportunity. Language in the prospectus is as rosy as similar project proposals in Dana Point (harbor revitalization) or San Diego (Chula Vista Bayfront or Seaport Village projects). Changes are likely to be implemented at marinas attached to or in close proximity to the many waterfront redevelopment projects on tap. Port district staff is seeking a vendor to develop the Cabrillo Way Marina area, which is located on the south end of the L.A. Waterfront area. The prospectus claims the development opportunity would transform the harbor waterfront “into a world-class destination where visitors will find unique dining, recreation and entertainment opportunities.” Plans to bring the new L.A. Waterfront online have already resulted in older portions of the harbor area being uprooted and removed. A marina and several restaurants in the Ports O’ Call district of San Pedro no longer exist, for example. The area will soon be converted into a public marketplace, which city officials hope will be a major draw for regional visitors and out-oftown tourists. Port district staff added they are also seeking a full-service marina-operating tenant. Cabrillo Way Marina is currently home to 700 wet slips, 325 dry boat storage stalls, three boat hoisting cranes and a pompous station. Westrec Management currently manages the marina. “The port seeks to sell the marina infrastructure assets and change the marina operator relationship from being an owner with a fee operator to being a landlord (ground and water lessor), consistent with the port’s relationship to operators of other marinas in its portfolio,” port staff stated in its prospectus.

In all about 87 acres of land and water would be developed as part of the opportunity presented. The development opportunity would be located at the southwest corner of Miner and 22nd streets. “The port is open to a variety of commercial development concepts that may extend beyond current entitlements. Such opportunities may require more intensive zoning and/or phasedgrowth strategies,” the port district’s prospectus stated. The Port of Los Angeles prospectus added the commercial development of the new L.A. Waterfront space could open the door for a new yacht club to be established or relocated.

Club could relocate to the revitalized area. Executing the L.A. Waterfront project is one of two developments already underway at the Port of Los Angeles. Officials already presented general schematics for the San Pedro Public Market, which is part of the L.A. Waterfront project. Also on tap is the AltaSea project, which would ocean-related businesses, education and research to the San Pedro area. Boeing, Catalina Sea Ranch and Ocean Exploration Trust are already committed to the AltaSea project as tenants. Both projects represent more than $200 million in private investment during the next five years. The port district added it has committed about $400 million for “continued development and operations of the L.A. Waterfront,” a project boasting a strengthening of public access infrastructure at Los Angeles Harbor. San Pedro Public Market, meanwhile, would replace restaurants such as Ports O’ Call and Acapulco with dining, entertainment, recreational and shopping elements. SpaceX is also expected to develop a presence at the new L.A. Waterfront. Port district staff is certainly making every effort to present impending plans to redevelop or revitalize its waterfront, no different than the other agencies up and down the Los Angeles, Orange County and San Diego coast. The curious yet-to-be answered question, of course, is whether such projects are good or bad news for boaters.

Being prepared for an emergency – Part I
For Service... It’s Worth the Trip!
BOTTOM PAINTING
SAN DIEGO — Would you be able to take charge if someone on your boat has a serious accident, sudden illness or injury, whether on board or at the dock, or even away from the boat? What if it’s the primary boat operator? Would you know how to control, operate and/or stabilize a situation if the primary operator or owner isn’t able to assist? A recent series of disabling accidents, injuries and illnesses among boating friends and dock-mates got me thinking about how vulnerable we boaters can be, especially if we’re not prepared for an adverse event. Often there’s only one person on board, the owner or main operator, who really knows how everything works and where everything is. But what if that person is somehow incapacitated through illness or injury or otherwise unavailable – perhaps traveling in remote regions, inaccessible to modern communications – would you be able to step in and handle an emergency? Regular readers know I’m a strong advocate of boater education. Anyone spending any time on board a boat of any size should take a basic boating safety class. The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary (cgaux.org) and U.S. Power Squadrons (usps.org) offer regular classes, with locations and dates posted online, throughout coastal regions. This is a sampling contained in two of our onboard marine first aid kits, the larger selection of medical supplies in the “cruiser” kit and the smaller variety (Be sure to get in the “weekender” kit, both of which we will update or replace.

Every boat has its quirks, which develop and change with age. For example, the Burgundy has quirky heads, as many boats do. Does everyone on board know your boat’s critical quirks?

Seaweed aquaculture project picks up Port of San Diego approval Board of Port Commissioners continues its “Blue Economy” initiative with ecological pilot program. By Parimal M. Rohit
SAN DIEGO — A company seeking to demonstrate the potential of seaweed aquaculture as a source of environmental sustainability and fish farming will receive $137,000 from the Port of San Diego as part of a pilot project under the district’s “Blue Economy” program. The Port of San Diego’s Board of Port Commissioners formally approved Sunken Seaweed’s pilot program application on July 17. The firm hopes to “demonstrate the feasibility of seaweed aquaculture in San Diego Bay.” Port district officials awarded Sunken Seaweed funding for one year. Funding for the pilot program was part of the port district’s “Blue Economy” incubator, now in its third round of proposals. “Sunken Seaweed is an aquaculture start-up company led by two marine ecologists committed to pioneering sustainable, seaweed aquaculture in
San Diego Bay. Sunken Seaweed is pursuing to establish a seaweed pilot farm in San Diego Bay to cultivate, outplant, grow, and harvest several species of native marine macroalgae as a culinary product, and eventually take to market via direct sale to chefs, distribution companies, and Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) companies,” port district staff told commissioners in a report. Staff with Sunken Seaweed proposed to use existing pier pilings, ropes, buoys, and anchors to demonstrate the feasibility seaweed aquaculture in San Diego Bay. “During the proposed pilot project, Sunken Seaweed will cultivate, outplant, grow, conduct biological surveys and measurements, and harvest several species of native marine macroalgae,” port district staff stated in a report to commissioners. “Additionally, Sunken Seaweed will collaborate with kelp ecologists from San Diego State University to optimize kelp farm structure, growout methods, and harvesting techniques. “The pilot farm will contribute valuable baseline information to inform future potential of seaweed aquaculture in California,” port district staff continued, adding the global commercial seaweed market was worth $10

billion in 2015 and should reach $22 billion in value by 2024. Developing the domestic production and uses of seaweed would include human and animal food production, biofuels, carbon sequestration and mitigation banking. Sunken Seaweed could propose new projects to the port district if its oneyear pilot program is successful. San Diego’s port district awarded Sunken Seaweed its one-year pilot program as part of a “Blue Economy” initiative, which has been in place
since 2015. “The [port] district’s Blue Economy incubator represents a launching pad for innovative projects by providing aquaculture and blue tech entrepreneurs with key assets and services focused on pilot project facilitation such as permit-ready infrastructure, entitlements, market access, and strategic funding,” port district staff stated in a report to commissioners. Port district staff has received and reviewed more than 80 proposals as part of its Blue Economy program.
Board of Port Commissioners acquire loan through private bank and review agreement for professional services by Noble Consultants. By Devon Warren
VENTURA — With a vision for a renewed Ventura Harbor Village on the horizon, Ventura Board of Port Commissioners met on July 25 to secure funds for the Ventura Harbor Village Marina Replacement Project. Additionally, commissioners considered a proposal by Noble Consultants to provide assistance during the bidding and construction phases for $93,365. The Harbor Village Marina Dock Replacement Project will replace docks C, D, G and H at Ventura Harbor Village Marina, with bids to be opened on Aug. 22 and reported to the Board of Port Commissioners by Sept. 26. A port district staff report reads: “The plans and specifications that constitute the bid solicitation package were prepared by Noble Consultants at a cost of about $140,000. Ongoing professional engineering services will be required during the bidding and construction phases of the dock replacement project.” Overall, the replacement project
is predicted to amount to $4.5 million, but is only an estimate as of now. Richard Parsons, Dredging Consultant to Ventura Port District, told The Log the main focus of the harbor commission’s action on the Marina Dock Replacement Project was securing financing, which was done through a private sector bank. As a side note, Parsons added while it was once more efficient to go through the Department of Boating and Waterways for a loan, the interest rates currently offered are not much better. Construction for the project that will replace docks C, D, G and H at Ventura Harbor Marina likely would not begin until the In a letter addressed second half of 2019. to Oscar Peña, General Manager, Noble Consultants stated: “Noble Consultants-GEC, Inc. is pleased to Consultants will assist Port District neering firm with offices in Los present this proposal for your review staff as needed to solicit contractors Angeles and San Francisco specializand consideration to provide profesand respond to bidder requests.

Shelter Island Boat Launch Ramp to remain closed through August
SAN DIEGO — Boaters still cannot access the water from the Shelter Island Boat Launch Ramp, despite the local port district reporting progress in construction. The launch ramp has been closed since May of 2017. A spokesperson with the Port of San Diego stated the boat launch ramp will remain closed through the entire month of August, though efforts are being made for at least one lane to be opened as soon as allowable. “The Port of San Diego recognizes that this extended closure impacts boaters during the busy summer season, but due to unforeseen concrete obstructions and other materials that were recently discovered during construction, it is necessary to keep the ramp closed at this time,” port district staff said in a released statement. “The

Trump administration must enforce Marine Mammal Life Protection Act. By Parimal M. Rohit
NEW YORK — Seafood caught from the Sea of Cortez cannot be imported from Mexico to the United States, according to an order issued by the U.S. Court of International Trade on July 30. The court specifically ordered the Trump Administration to ban the importation of Mexican seafood caught in gillnets responsible for the deaths of hundreds of vaquita porpoise, which is now a critically endangered species. Last month’s order, which was the result of a lawsuit filed by conservation groups, came on the heels of UNESCO holding off on declaring the vaquita species as “In-Danger.” The Log obtained and reviewed a copy of the order. Judge Gary S. Katzmann’s order specifically banned the importation of fish and fish products from Mexican fisheries that use gillnets in the Upper Gulf of California (or Sea of Cortez). The vaquita habitat is found in the same area. Chano (bigeye croaker), corvina (drum fish) shrimp and sierra are among the species included in the ban. Animal Welfare Institute, one
of the plaintiffs in the Court of International Trade lawsuit, defined gillnets as “fishing nets that hang in the water, indiscriminately catching both target fish and other marine creatures, including vaquita. Katzmann defined a gillnet as “a wall of netting that fishermen hang vertically in the water column to catch target species.” “Gillnets come in various mesh sizes, and fishermen The U.S. Court of International Trade issued an order requiring the Trump administration to ban the import of certain seafood from use them actively Mexico, particularly those caught with gillnets responsible for the deaths of vaquitas.

Newport Beach City Council members approve filing of Notice of Completion; project comes in under budget. By Devon Warren
NEWPORT BEACH — Balboa Island Sea Walls project, which began in autumn 2017, was completed in addition to work at four other public areas including Channel Place, Finley Avenue, 36th Street and Lake Avenue. City Council unanimously voted to complete staff requests to close on the contract on July 24, with Council member Jeff Herdman recusing himself due to real property interests. Bosco Constructors Inc. was awarded the contract for $1,444,444 in September 2017. The total amount spent on the bid item was $1,302,584, coming in slightly under the original award. Plans had called for a 9-inch cap to be added to both the north and side of Balboa Island’s sea walls. The contractor used the remainder of the award to reconstruct and raise seawall caps at four other public locations. The grand total to complete all projects was $1,592,969 with the inclusion of the change orders equaling $290,385. David Kiff, Newport Beach’s city manager, said in a release: “Three Notices of Completion (NOCs) that are

evolution.” Commercial fishermen have used drift gillnets in the Sea of Cortez to catch certain prized fish; gillnets have been identified as the reason why the vaquita population has rapidly declined to near extinction. “It is undisputed that the cause of the vaquita’s precipitous decline is its inadvertent tangling, strangulation, and drowning in gillnets, which are fishing nets hung in the water to entangle fish and shrimp. The government of Mexico, which regulates fishing practices in the Gulf of California, has banned the usage of gillnets in certain fisheries within the vaquita’s range, though illegal gillnet fishing continues,” the court order stated. “In other fisheries, gillnet fishing remains legal. If current levels of gillnet fishing in the vaquita’s habitat continue, the species will likely be extinct by 2021,” Katzmann continued in his order. Banning drift gillnets might be a rational course of action in the legislative halls of Mexico and the United States, but commercial fisheries aren’t necessarily incentivized to play along. At least one report indicated the market for fish and shrimp illegally caught in gillnets was valued at about $16 million in 2017. At heart of the order – which spawned from a lawsuit filed against

the Trump administration earlier this year – is whether the United States should have done enough under the U.S. Marine Mammal Protection Act to require greater action by the Mexican government. The Mexican government, some have alleged, failed to enforce or expand its gillnet ban. The Marine Mammal Protection Act specifically gives the U.S. government the authority to ban seafood imports from foreign fisheries if those fisheries are found to use techniques that would violate federal laws had they been a domestic entity. The United States is also mandated to protect domestic and foreign marine mammals under the Marine Mammal Protection Act. The U.S. Court of International Trade is an official court established under Article 3 of the U.S. Constitution. The court has jurisdiction over civil actions related to customs and international trade laws of the United States. The lawsuit was filed by Center for Biological Diversity, Natural Resources Defense Council and Animal Welfare Institute; Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen were among those named as defendants in the lawsuit. The vaquita, which is one of seven species of porpoise worldwide, was listed as an endangered species in 1985, according to Katzmann’s order.
New York law will require propeller guards on boats used for instructing minors CENTERPORT, New York (LOG NEWS SERVICE) — A Long Island county where a 12-year-old boy died during a boating safety lesson now has a new law aimed at preventing such tragedies from happening again. Newsday reports Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone signed Ryan’s Law on July 28. The law is named after Ryan Weiss, who was killed on July 18, 2017 when he was hit by a boat propeller. Authorities say the boy was participating in a sailboat capsizing lesson at the Centerport Yacht Club when he was pulled from the water into an inflatable Zodiac boat. When the boat took off, Ryan fell overboard and was fatally struck by the motor’s propeller. Suffolk Legislator William “Doc” Spencer, sponsor of the bill, said the law is the first of its kind in the nation, “This bill is bipartisan, practical, well thought out and doesn’t impinge on the boaters,” Spencer said, suggesting boating families consider installing prop guards on their own. Spencer said thorough research led to a consensus among the U.S. Coast Guard, area yacht clubs and county officials that the installation of propeller guards on all instructional vessels was the most sensible solution.
“There’s nothing you can do to make everything completely safe… but the idea was that we could decrease the potential for these unexpected tragedies,” Spencer said The legislation states “any vessel utilized to teach minors about marine navigation and safety in a formal setting, such as an instructional course conducted by a marina, yacht club or boating organization” is required to have a propeller guard when operating in Suffolk waterways. A first-time violation carries a fine of $250-$500. Convictions for all subsequent offenses can bring a fine of $750-$1,500 per offense Some manufactures of marine engines are on record opposing propeller guards citing reduced performance and propeller fouling while others in the marine field, while acknowledge that a propeller guard decreases a high powered boat’s top speed, report propeller guards have little effect on a motors performance at slower speeds around other boats, docks or while idling to pick up a person in the water where accidents are likely to occur. A report from The Associated Press was used in this story.

A Los Gatos firm named Pathion purchased the yacht at an auction in 2015, but what has happened since then? By Devon Warren
LOS ANGELES — For a spell, coverage of Angelena II, the Port of Los Angeles’ pet project boat, was covered fairly extensively by The Log and other news outlets. The port district sunk $4.1 million into the yacht with plans to use it as a harbor tour vessel before ultimately selling it to a private company via auction. The yacht’s new owner had plans to showcase Angelena II as a technologically advanced vessel, potentially serving as a model of a boat of the future. Angelena II, a 73-foot yacht, was purchased by the city of Los Angeles in 1988 for a whopping $450,000. City officials had grand plans for her. The Port of Los Angeles always imagined this vessel as becoming more environmentally friendly and, until her purchase, planned to replace the diesel engine, which no longer met California’s emission standard. These plans never came to fruition and, in 2015, the yacht was offered for sale at an auction. The buyer was Pathion, an energy technology firm that undertook the mission to restore
Angelena II as well as transform her into an energy-efficient yacht. Radio silence fell on Angelena II’s existence – until now. Phillip Sanfield, the port district’s director of media relations, confirmed the yacht was sold via auction. He added he has no knowledge of what happened with the yachts once Pathion assumed ownership. “I did a quick check with our Construction/ Maintenance division, which was responsible for the Angelena II. It was sold through a third-party auction house.

City Council committee voted on proposal in October 2017, but not much is known of what has happened since. By Parimal M. Rohit
SAN DIEGO — Hurry up and wait is consistently the theme of many policies, projects and initiatives spearheaded by local governments and public agencies. Plans to upgrade the Chula Vista waterfront have been in the works since the early 2000s. Planners in Orange County spent portions of three decades trying to execute a revitalized waterfront at Dana Point Harbor. A rebuild of Alamitos Bay Marina took more than a decade to complete (from conception to ribbon-cutting). The city of San Diego is certainly not immune from hare-like tendencies, as a policy seeking to address abandoned boats at Zuniga Jetty (near Point Loma) continues to be vetted out almost 10 months after it was introduced. A San Diego City Council committee approved a proposed Municipal Code amendment in October 2017, opening the door for all council members to vote on an ordinance preventing anyone from abandoning vessels in San Diego Bay. The proposed ordinance moved on to San Diego City Attorney’s office.
Since then The Log has regularly checked in with the City Council to monitor the progress of the proposed ordinance and Municipal Code amendment. A spokesperson from one City Council member’s office informed The Log in late July the proposal had reached Mayor Kevin Faulconer’s office. The Log and Faulconer’s office, as of press time, have not yet established contact to discuss the proposed ordinance and its current progress. It is unclear whether the proposed Municipal Code amendment would be in front of the entire City Council within the next few weeks – or if at all. San Diego city leaders began considering a proposal to severely restrict the anchoring of boats near the entrance of the city’s bay last fall. The council’s Public Safety and Livable Neighborhoods Committee specifically approved a proposal seeking to prevent boats from being abandoned or left unattended for more than two hours at Zuniga Jetty Shoal, a shallow stretch of the bay located near the harbor entrance. Conditions surrounding the Zuniga Jetty area – winds, shallow waters, etc. – often cause vessels to break from anchors, causing them to be beached, sunken or otherwise broken. The U.S. Navy, who operates relatively close to Zuniga Jetty, estimates costs to clean up after these abandoned or unat-

Radio silence persists for San Diego’s abandoned boat policy
A proposed policy to address abandoned boats in upper San Diego Bay (pictured) hasn’t been on the radar since it was proposed and initially vetted late last year. The proposal is apparently being fleshed out by the mayor’s office.
tended vessels could reach as much as $50,000. The Log, in a story published about nine months ago, cited a city staff report calling the abandoning of boats near Zuniga Jetty as “a significant nuisance.” “Officials from the United States Navy report from November 2010 through September 2017 there have been at least 61 abandoned vessels that have sunk, beached or broken apart on this stretch of coastline. In calendar year 2016, there were 21 cases of abandoned vessels on their beach,” The Log quoted from a city staff report. “These abandoned vessels pose a threat to the
environment. In some cases, there are hazardous materials on board that can spill into the ocean.” Regulation of this issue currently falls within the jurisdiction of San Diego City Hall, although The Log previously reported any ordinance presented to council members would be cooperative in nature and include other agencies. Monitoring and enforcement were two major elements city officials would likely include in whatever moves forward. The Log will continue its efforts to track this proposal and report on any progress as soon as it’s made available.

Catalina Connection Before Catalina Casino, there was Sugarloaf AVALON — While we have witnesses many interesting buildings and a tourism industry build up within Avalon’s city limits during the past100 years, it is hard to imagine Catalina’s Island’s most famous harbor without one of its most impressive tourist attractions and venues: Catalina Casino. However, there had to be something there before the stunning Art Deco building was established in 1929, right? The answer is there was – a rock formation named Sugarloaf. At one time, the standalone rock was considered a recognizable feature of the bay before it was bought by the Wrigleys. Its unusual name came from its conical shape, which was similar to molds that refined sugar was packed into during earlier centuries and by sailors who thought that it resembled Mt. Sugarloaf in Brazil. A staircase was built to climb Sugarloaf during the 1890s, but it was deemed quite a dangerous climb with many tourists fearful of the downward descent after they conquered
Sugarloaf, named for its conical shape and resemblance to Mt. Sugarloaf in Brazil, is pictured in the moonlight drenching Catalina’s coast.

Island, Sugarloaf’s days were numbered and the site was cleared with dynamite to make way for a new gathering space called Sugarloaf Casino. The much smaller Sugarloaf Casino was built in 1920 and it endured until 1929 when the Wrigleys recognized the growing number of visitors could no longer be accommodated by the much smaller structure. From there, Catalina Casino went down in history. Beginning in fall, Catalina Island Museum may be hosting an exhibit “When Sugar Loaf Stood: Paintings of Catalina Island Before 1919.” Paintings borrowed from a private collection will give visitors a chance to view what Avalon’s bay was like when Sugarloaf defined the island. For those interested in learning more about the exhibit, visit the website at catalinamuseum.org.

Anglers aboard Freedom’s fishing expedition in mid-July returned to 22nd Street Landing in San Pedro with a solid mix of halibut and yellowtail. This angler had one of the larger halibut catches. “We had pretty good fishing today,” Capt. Jeff Jessop said in his July 18 fishing report. “We had a steady pick in the a.m. on nice grade yellowtail, some sea bass and halibut too! We had halibut up to 40 pounds today.”
Southern California fishing news
Two fishing bills await legislative fate Will 12-month license proposal clear appropriations hurdle this time around?
Senate Bill 518 State Sen. Tom Berryhill’s proposal to establish a 12-month sportfishing license system in California is currently being reviewed in appropriations – currently the same place where his similar proposals had died in years past. The bill was placed under appropriations scrutiny in late June and we should find out in the not-too-distant future whether SB 518 would have a chance to make it to Brown’s desk for signature. Berryhill has made several attempts to change California’s sportfishing license calendar system, with each effort falling short in August. This legislative session is Berryhill’s last in the State Senate, meaning he won’t have another opportunity to re-introduce a 12-month sportfishing bill should SB 518 fail to make it out of appropriations. A legislative analysis out of the Assembly in early June showed SB 518 with no registered opposition and support from several groups such as California Yacht Brokers Association, Marina Recreation Association, Mono County Fish and Wildlife Commission, National Marine Manufacturers Association and Western Outdoor News.
Will a bill proposing to change California’s fish licensing system to a 12-month scheme finally make it to the governor’s desk? Also floating on the legislative floor is a proposal to implement stricter punishment of violators of California’s MPAs.
Proponents of SB 518 have long argued a 12-month sportfishing license regime could help maintain or increase angler participation in California.
Assembly Bill 2369 A proposal seeking to implement stricter punishment for those who violate California’s MPA regulations has been off the radar since July 3, when AB 2369 was being deliberated in committee.
Assembly member Lorena Gonzalez Fletcher, who chaired the Assembly Appropriations Committee last year, coincidentally, introduced AB 2369. It was in that committee where Berryhill’s previous attempt to establish a 12-year fishing license regime was held up despite no recorded opposition to the bill. Fletcher’s proposal made it out of the Assembly on April 30 (74-0 vote with four Assembly members not voting). The State Senate’s Natural
Decks full of White Sea Bass and Bluefin Tuna NEWPORT BEACH — Balboa Angling Club shared this photo of a white sea bass on its social media sites. The sea bass was reeled in by Vick Sommers and weighed-in at 40.07 pounds. It was caught on a 16-pound test on July 17. The Newport Beach fishing club had a few other catches come to its docks in mid-July, such as 199.8-pound bluefin tuna caught on 100-pound test aboard Malia Jean. Another angler reeled in a 54.6-pound white sea bass. Michael Vaughan came back to Balboa Angling Club with a bluefin tuna (weight not reported) while fishing aboard Big G. Bluefin tuna catches were also brought to the club during the first half of July, including a 175.3-pounder aboard Limitless and a 146.5-pounder reeled in after Balboa Angling Club’s Porch Party on July 11.

SACRAMENTO — It’s August and that means one thing in Sacramento: a slew of bills will either be green lit and sent to the governor’s desk or shot down and returned to their respective authors. Two fishing bills hoping to make it to Gov. Jerry Brown’s desk in September are Senate Bill 518 (SB 518) and Assembly Bill 2369 (AB 2369). SB 518 is the latest attempt to reform California’s sportfishing license regime, while AB 2369 aims to expand punishment for those breaking laws associated with Marine Protected Areas, or MPAs.

Resources and Water Committee endorsed AB 2369 by a 9-0 vote on June 12 and referred to the upper house’s Appropriations Committee. No action has been taken on the bill since July 3. AB 2369, like SB 518, has no recorded opposition on file. Groups in favor of AB 2369 include California Coastkeeper Alliance, Cambria Fishing Club, the cities of Encinitas and Malibu, Heal the Bay, Los Angeles Waterkeeper, Monterey Bay Aquarium, San Diego Coastkeeper and Surfrider Foundation. The Log and FishRap News will continue to monitor the progress of both bill and report upon the final results as soon as they are made public. Assembly members and State Senators returned from their summer recess on Aug. 6; bills will be considered in committee through Aug. 17, with floor sessions on all proposals making it to the general membership of each house taking place between Aug. 17 and 31. The last day for bills to advance out of either house is Aug. 31. Brown has until Sept. 30 to sign or veto bills making it out of the Assembly or State Senate.

San Diego Report
Tough summer bites showing signs of improvement By Bob Vanian SAN DIEGO — Southern California offshore anglers have been looking at a lot of fish in local offshore waters during the early part of the summer fishing season. They are often frustrated, however, by it being very difficult to get the fish they were looking at to bite. There is still a lot of that going on, but the past week of fishing has seen better numbers of fish doing more than just showing and are more readily willing to bite. Anglers have a wide variety of species to target in offshore waters with bluefin tuna, yellowfin tuna, Dorado, yellowtail and striped marlin biting. In addition there are some super exotic species around with blue marlin and wahoo in the picture as well. With regard to the super exotic blue marlin and wahoo, there was a confirmed blue marlin hookup last week on a fish estimated to be more than 400 pounds and bit on a jig at the 224 Spot. The big blue marlin was lost when it spooled a 50 wide size reel loaded with 135-pound test braid. Wahoo have also been seen under lights at night by a drifting sportboat. There have been a series of mystery clip offs on trolling gear that can best be explained by a wahoo strike and private boater. Capt. Bob Woodard Jr. of Dropback reported seeing two wahoo as clear as can be while diving next to a kelp paddie at the
302 Spot. The best area for bluefin tuna is out at San Clemente Island, where there has been action on jumbo-sized fish at 250+ pounds. The bluefin have been showing in various areas around San Clemente Island with the best action coming from outside of China Point while fishing around Desperation Reef, the 81 Fathom Spot and the 86 Fathom Spot. There were also showings of bluefin along the ridge area of the San Clemente Canyon off Pyramid Head as well as while fishing 2 to 4 miles inside of the Island between Pyramid Head and the Radar Dome. The bluefin have been biting on a variety of baits and lures such as sardines, mackerel, live squid, flying fish, kite trolled Yummy Flyers, Flat Fall jigs and poppers. The bluefin have been found by locating meter marks, sonar marks and spots of fish working on the surface. Some of the best fishing sometimes happens during the dark with the few hours after sunset and prior to dawn being the best. In other areas, the fishing for a mix of yellowtail, Dorado, yellowfin tuna and mixed size bluefin tuna has been improving and at times has been providing good action. The yellowfin tuna have been mostly 8- to 12-pound fish, with some bigger fish to 50 pounds also reported. Most of the bluefin tuna in these areas have been the 15- to 20-pound fish, with
a few bigger fish to 250+ pounds also reported. The Dorado and yellowtail have been running from 6 to 25 pounds. Areas around the east end of Catalina have been the best for striped marlin. On Aug. 5 a boat had a triple while fishing outside of the Rock Quarry. They were able to catch and release all three fish. The fishing at Los Coronado Islands continues to provide good action for a mixed bag of yellowtail, barracuda, bonito and calico bass. There have also been a few bluefin tuna around and biting. Productive areas have been Pukey Point, the Middle Grounds, the north end of South Island, the lighthouse at the south tip of South Island, the 5 Minute Kelp and the Ribbon Kelp. Mission Belle out of Point Loma Sportfishing had a full-day trip with 36 anglers catch 41 yellowtails, 22 calico bass and six bonito. Seaforth Sportfishing had a full-day trip aboard Sea Watch fishing with 32 anglers who caught 74 yellowtails, 26 calico bass, 11 bonito and eight barracuda. The yellowtails have been biting from slow trolled and drifted mackerel and sardines. Surface iron and trolled X-Rap Rapalas have also been effective for yellowtail. Locate yellowtail by finding meter marks, sonar marks and spots of working birds. Yellowtail have also been located by getting trolling strikes on X-Rap Rapalas, slow trolled sardines and slow trolled mackerel.
The fishing along the San Diego County coast remains pretty much the same at it has been in recent weeks and has been providing good fishing for a mix of calico bass, sand bass, rockfish and sculpin. Boats fishing the edges of the Point Loma Kelp Beds and fishing outside of the Point Loma kelp beds in the 30 to 40 fathom depths have also been picking up a few barracuda and an occasional yellowtail. The most productive kelp bed spots along the San Diego County coast for calico bass have been the Point Loma Kelp Beds, the upper end of La Jolla, Del Mar, Solana Beach, Leucadia, Carlsbad, the Barn Kelp, Box Canyon and San Onofre. The summer fishing season is in full swing and the fishing looks like it is still improving. Anglers have their choice of a lot of fun fish to target be it offshore, at the Islands or along the coast. Make sure you get out there and take part in the action. Keep on fishing and I hope to see you out on the water! Bob Vanian is the voice, writer and researcher of the San Diego-based internet fish report service called 976-Bite which can be found at www.976bite. com.

Fish and Game Commission to discuss MPA Monitoring By Parimal M. Rohit
SACRAMENTO — Members of the Fish and Game Commission are expected to discuss the statewide Marine Protected Areas (MPA) monitoring action plan at its August meetings in Fortuna, California. The MPA monitoring plan was already discussed at the most recent Marine Resources Committee (MRC) meeting (July 17 in San Clemente). Commissioners are slated to discuss the action plan during the Aug. 23-24 meetings; a vote on the action plan could come as early as the Fish and Game Commission’s October meetings in Fresno. State law requires MPAs to be monitored and evalu-
ated in the name of adaptive management. “The draft Action Plan is intended to inform next steps for long-term MPA monitoring in California by tying together MPA monitoring, research and evaluation concepts and priorities across statewide and regional scales,” Fish and Game Commission staff stated in a report to MRC members. “The Action Plan prioritizes metrics, habitats, sites, and species to target for long-term monitoring and its funding in order to inform the evaluation of California’s MPA network.” Commissioners Eric Sklar and Peter Silva sit on the Marine Resources Committee. California’s 124 MPAs were officially designated in 2012 and cover 16 percent of state waters.
Clockwise, from bottom left: Anglers are reeling Dorado over the rails and onto the decks, as evidenced by an Aug. 1 jaunt out of Dana Wharf and another fishing trip aboard Tribute on July 30. Other big catches in recent days included a white sea bass (caught on July 25 aboard Fortune), lingcod (reeled in Aug. 1 aboard Stardust) and a massive bluefin tuna (aboard Thunderbird, July 28).

SALTWATER OCEAN FISHING REPORT By Terrence Berg 976-TUNA.com OFFSHORE UPDATE: The San Diego to Los Angeles county based boats are still heading offshore on overnight to 2.5-day trips and finding an incredible mix of trophy bluefin to 200 pounds or better, along with yellowfin, Dorado, and yellowtail, which are mostly in the 12- to 20pound class. The fishing may not be wide open, but it is pretty darn good. Toronado out of Pierpoint Landing in Long Beach had 23 anglers on its Aug. 1 1.5-day trip and landed 16 bluefin to 200 pounds and 53 yellowtails. Condor out of Fisherman’s Landing had 15 anglers on its Aug. 1 1.5-day trip and caught one bluefin tuna, 60 yellowtails and two Dorado.

Pacific Voyager out of Seaforth Sportfishing returned Aug. 1 from a 2.5-day trip with 16 anglers and landed 102 yellowfin tuna, 78 slipjack, 17 Dorado, and one yellowtail. The San Diego full-day boats fishing around the Coronado Islands or just outside are also getting in on very good yellowtail action and Dorado are flooding up into this zone. San Diego out of Seaforth Sportfishing had 40 anglers on its Aug. 1 full-day trip and landed 73 yellowtails and three Dorado. CATALINA UPDATE: For the Los Angeles and Orange County boats fishing around Catali-
na Island on three-quarter and full-day trips, the bite has been pretty fair for a mixed bag of fish with yellowtail, calico bass, barracuda, and bonito all showing, along with an array of bottom fish. Pursuit out of 22nd Street Landing had 66 anglers on a packed Aug. 1 full-day trip and landed five yellowtails, 44 keeper calico bass, 33 bonito, 30 perch, 17 whitefish, 10 barracuda, and seven sheephead. Freelance out of Davey’s Locker had 80 anglers on its Aug. 1 three-quarter-day trip and landed two yellowtails, 61 sculpin, 43 whitefish, 31 perch, 23 calico bass, five bonito, three barracuda, and two sheephead. LOS ANGELES-ORANGE COUNTY NEARSHORE UPDATE: The bite for the half- and three-quarter-day boats fishing along the Los Angeles and Orange County coastline have continued to be pretty decent for bottom fish with a smattering of bass. New Del Mar out of Marina del Rey had 67 anglers on its Aug. 1 half-day trip and landed 215 rockfish, 29 whitefish, 19 sand bass, 16 calicos, eight sheephead, and a bonus halibut. OXNARD TO SANTA BARBARA UPDATE: The yellowtail and calico bass bites in the Channel Islands off the Oxnard to Santa Barbara coastline continue to be pretty decent, and the rockfish remain excellent. The odd white sea bass continues to show. The local surf continues to have excellent perch fishing. At Channel Islands Sportfishing in Oxnard, Cobra had 13 anglers on a full-day trip Aug. 1 and caught eight yellowtails, 55 whitefish, 15 assorted rockfish, six bonito, six calico bass, five barracuda, and four sculpin.

CENTRAL COAST UPDATE: Rockfish are the name of the game on this part of the coast, and the action continues to be largely limit-style with a decent number of lingcod mixed in the catch when boats can get out. Rough seas continue to be an issue, but it was better much of this past week. Inside Morro Bay, anglers are reporting a few leopard sharks and bat rays, along with the odd halibut. In the local surf, the perch bite remains very good, mostly on lugworms or the Gulp! Sand Worms. At Patriot Sportfishing in Avila Beach, Patriot ran a half-day trip on Aug. 1. The 38 anglers landed 352 assorted rockfish and 28 red snapper for limits. At Virg’s Landing in Morro Bay, Fiesta was out July 31 with just 14 anglers on a three-quarterday trip and caught 80 assorted rockfish and 60 red snapper for limits. They also had seven lingcod.
