By: LINDSEY GLASGOW
NATIONWIDE— A new study has found
bait might not be the only thing getting fish hooked in our waterways. A recent laboratory study found methamphetamine pollution in waterways could be affecting fish and could lead to an alteration in their natural behavior. Methamphetamine can and has worked its way through wastewater treatment facilities and sewage systems all over the world where it contaminates rivers and streams, with concentrations of the drugs ranging from a few nanograms to dozens of micrograms per liter of water, according to reports in the journals Chemosphere and Water. Pav e l Hork ý, f r om t he C z e c h University of Life Sciences in Prague, led a team in researching the effects of methamphetamine-laced water on brown trout and published the findings in the July issue of the Journal of Experimental Biology. “Our results suggest that emission of illicit drugs into freshwater ecosystems causes addiction in fish and modifies habitat preferences with unexpected adverse consequences of relevance at the individual and population levels,” the re-
searchers wrote in the published study. For the study, researchers isolated trout in a large tank of water laced with methamphetamine for eight weeks to simulate the effects of persistent drug exposure that might occur in a polluted river. A separate group of trout was kept in a tank with clean water for the same period. The fish were then transferred to a new tank with fresh water and every other day transferred to a tank with two stream choices, fresh water and water laced with meth. The researchers found in the first four days after the tank swap, the meth-exposed fish showed a stronger preference for drugged water when compared with the fish who started out in the clean water tank. This difference waned the more time the exposed fish spent in the drug-free tank. The study’s authors discovered during the withdrawal period, the trout exposed to methamphetamine moved less, which they interpreted as a sign of stress or anxiety, the usual signs of drug withdrawal in humans. They also took samples of the fishes’ brain tissue and screened them for both methamphetamine and amphetamine, a metabolic byproduct of the drug. They found “there were differences in concentration of amphetamine and methamphetamine that were shown

Study: Fish Can Get Hooked on Methamphetamine Pollution in Waterways
A new study finds Methamphetamine that works its way through wastewater treatment facilities and sewage drainage systems into fresh water rivers and streams could be affecting fish and could lead to the fish looking for a fix by gathering near places where contaminated water is discharged. to be related to changes in behavior.” The authors said these results suggest brown trout could become addicted to trace amounts of methamphetamine in rivers, which could lead to the fish look-
ing for a fix by gathering near places where contaminated water is discharged and result in problems with their feeding, breeding, and eventually, survival.

I would love to see a short clip telling us what happened to the radio check repeater we used to have in Huntington Harbor on channel 27. Loved the ability to check the radio on the automated system. Will we ever get it back? Is there an alternative? Thanks. — Dennis
A
The Log reached out to Sea Tow, which operated the service, and was told in late 2020 Sea Tow was informed by the FCC that the entity which held the licenses to the VHF frequencies required to operate
the Automated Radio Check never filed the proper paperwork with the FCC to allow Sea Tow to operate on those frequencies despite the obligation to do so. Therefore, in full cooperation with the FCC requirements, Sea Tow was required to cease operating the Automated Radio Check system. “Although the use of VHF radio has greatly declined over the past many years due to cell phone use, we were sad to see the system go as boaters still did utilize the service and the VHF radio is still one of the best methods to get help in an emergency,” said Capt. Joseph
J. Frohnhoefer III, CEO of Sea Tow Services International, in an email. “As we do not see the system coming back, Sea Tow now recommends that all boaters utilize VHF Channel 09 to conduct radio checks and do not use VHF Ch. 16 which is designated as an International Distress, Safety and Calling frequency.” Have a question you want The Log to answer?

WOODS HOLE, MASS.— From railroads, to floating, to landside, fish hatcheries have had a long and interesting history. The following is information collected from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Fisheries website. The beginnings of fish propagation work dates back to 1871 when Spencer Baird, founder of NOAA Fisheries, was appointed the first U.S. Fish Commissioner. He was tasked with ascertaining A Bureau of Fisheries fish car sits at the railroad terminal whether any and in what number food in Woods Hole, Massachusetts. The volume of fish being fishes had diminished.

LOCAL Governor Signs ‘Fix-It Ticket’ Legislation for Vessel Violations SACRAMENTO— Governor Gavin
Newsom, on July 9, signed AB 591 into law, which provides incentives for boaters to correct certain violations. It authorizes an officer to issue a written notice containing a violator’s promise to correct an alleged violation of various offenses relating to vessels. Similar incentives have already been established in the California Vehicle Code. However, no such authority exists in the Harbors and Navigation Code for boating violations. AB 591 aims to correct this oversight. The bill will require an officer, unless certain specified conditions exists, to permit a person arrested for the following vessel-related offenses to execute a notice containing a violator’s promise to correct the alleged violations: expired registration; failure to paint the vessel identification number on the forward half of the boat; operating a vessel propelled by an engine without possessing an operating license; failure to display registration stickers; using a recreational boat without a proper floatation device, as specified; operating a vessel without a properly serviced fire extinguisher; and

tion, Baird Station, was established on the McCloud River. Fish propagation was viewed by many as a possible solution to depleted East Coast populations like salmon and American shad but the fish needed a way to move between the two coasts and railroads provided a safe and inexpensive solution. In August 1872, fertilized salmon eggs were collected at Baird Station and shipped to the East Coast by rail. In 1873, live Hudson River shad were transported in open milk cans by baggage cars from the East Coast to the West Coast where they were released into the Sacramento River. By 1881, the volume of fish being transported by rail led to the purchase of the first “fish car” — a baggage car specifically designed for carrying fish. The Fish Commission eventually had 10 of these special cars. These unique fish cars were displayed at the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893 and at other major exhibitions and festivals during what railroad enthusiasts call the “fish car era.” This focus on fish cultivation in the early days of NOAA Fisheries also led to the idea of a floating hatchery as a practical way to spawn more fish. In 1879, the U.S. Fish Commission launched its first research vessel, the 156-foot steamer Fish Hawk. Fish Hawk was the first large vessel built by any nation specifically to pro-
having a fire extinguisher without the proper metallic name plate, as specified.
Crowley to Build and Operate First Fully Electric U.S. Tugboat in Port of San Diego SAN DIEGO— Crowley Maritime
Corporation, on July 12, announced plans to build and operate the first fully electric U.S. tugboat. The eWolf is set to operate at the Port of San Diego’s Tenth Avenue Marine Terminal by mid-2023, according to the manufacturer. The 82-foot vessel will have 70 tons of bollard pull and release zero tailpipe emissions. It will have 360 degrees of visibility from the pilot’s station and is being designed for potential autonomous operations in the future. This eTug will replace a conventional tugboat that consumes more than 30,000 gallons of diesel annually, according to Crowley. “The eWolf represents everything Crowley stands for: innovation, sustainability and performance,” said Crowley Chairman and CEO Tom Crowley in a July 12 press release. “With this groundbreaking tug design, our team continues to embrace our role as leaders in the maritime industry while providing our customers with innovative and sustainable solutions done right.” In its first 10 years, the eWolf is
mote fisheries and was docked at NOAA Fisheries’ laboratory in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, which is known as the birthplace of the organization. American shad was a priority, but herring, mackerel, and striped bass in coastal waters were also a focus. Since species like shad run only briefly at any one location, a floating hatchery that moved along the coast was considered practical. Three-foot cone-shaped containers suspended from beams outside the vessel could each hold 7.2 million shad eggs. The Fish Hawk was most often used for dredging and trawling around Cape Cod, the Gulf of Maine, Long Island Sound, and in other coastal waters. It also trawled and dredged out to the edge of the continental shelf stretching from Maine to Florida, exploring for fishery resources and collecting organisms for study. The Fish Hawk is famous for the discovery of 60 new species of fishes and mollusks, including tilefish in 1880. It was decommissioned in January 1926. Today, there are 70 national fish hatcheries across the country, seven fish technology centers, and nine health centers focused on conservation techniques and methods and the health of fish and amphibians in captivity and in the wild, according to NOAA Fisheries. They are operated by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, which credits its founding to the establishment of the U.S. Fish Commission in 1871 and to the efforts of Spencer Baird.
expected to reduce emissions by the following levels, 178 tons of nitrogen oxide, 2.5 tons of diesel particulate matter, and 3,100 metric tons of carbon dioxide. A shoreside energy storage system developed with Cochran Marine will charge the eWolf’s battery system. The eTug will be a result of a partnership among Crowley, the San Diego County Air Pollution Control District, the California Air Resources Board, the Port of San Diego, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and the U.S. Maritime Administration.
NATIONAL/INTERNATIONAL Florida Anchoring Bill Signed into Law TALLAHASSEE, FLA.— A bill aimed at addressing the continuing vessel anchoring challenges facing some Florida counties while balancing the needs of responsible vessel operators became law with the signing of FL S.B. 1946 by Governor Ron DeSantis. Florida S.B. 1946 allows counties to establish anchorage limitation areas adjacent to urban areas that have a combination of significant boat traffic, narrow waterways, and residential docking facilities. Counties are permitted to set up anchorages that give active cruisers or any vessel operator access to high-demand harborage for up to 45 consecutive days in any six-month period. The state has long had challenges with derelict and abandoned vessels and this legislation hopes to reduce those numbers. The legislation had the support of the Boat Owners Association of The United States, which said it protects active cruisers in the Sunshine State, giving them critical access to important shoreside services and amenities while also addressing continued challenges with at-risk vessels that anchor on a long-term basis. “Representative Duggan and Senator Polsky worked diligently with us to ensure that the needs of active, responsible cruisers and vessel operators were included,” said BoatUS Manager of Government Affairs David Kennedy in a press release. “We were pleased they listened to BoatUS’s solutions for this
long-standing challenge and included them in the final bill… This bi-partisan team gave responsible cruising boaters and local governments the tools they will need to address anchoring.”
NOAA Announces Lake Michigan Wisconsin Shipwreck Coast National Marine Sanctuary LAKE MICHIGAN, WIS. —The
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Office of National Marine Sanctuaries has announced the designation of the Wisconsin Shipwreck Coast National Marine Sanctuary. The area on Lake Michigan has been under consideration for national marine sanctuary status since 2014. The sanctuary will make up 962-square-miles in Lake Michigan on the Wisconsin side and will protect 36 shipwrecks. The shipwrecks possess exceptional historic, archaeological, and, recreational value, according to NOAA. Historical research suggests that nearly 60 shipwrecks are yet to be discovered in the sanctuary. The sanctuary will be co-managed by the NOAA and the State of Wisconsin, expanding upon 30 years of stewardship by the state. It will also provide new opportunities for research, resource protection, educational programming, and community engagement.

Invasive Algae Species in Newport WHAT HAPPENED: The California Department of Fish and Wildlife
reported an invasive species of algae in Newport Bay on April 22. The species, Caulerpa prolifera, was found by a diver at the Entrance Channel area. The diver was a videographer for OC Parks and initially caught the algae on camera in October, but was not alarmed until he returned in March and the algae was later identified by the California Department of Food and Agriculture. On May 12, the Newport Harbor Commission met and heard from Chris Miller, Newport Beach public works manager and member of the Southern California Caulerpa Action Team, about a plan to eradicate the algae from the harbor. Miller and his team came up with a plan to vacuum and then dredge the field where the Caulerpa was discovered. The plan was to vacuum the area to catch floating biomass and then dredge three to four inches of sediment into large mesh bags that would allow the water to drain out before removing the bags to a landfill. At the time of the last meeting the area was cordoned off to create a swim line and there was a physical boundary put up to warn the public along with yellow signs on the beach to let the public know what was happening.
Leaf Caulerpa, in layman’s terms, is native to Florida and other subtropical areas, it can grow to 6 feet in length and produces through fragmentation. While the species is not harmful to humans, the CDFW is concerned that algae could overrun local environBW ments by choking out native seaweeds and causing a potential loss in habitat for local marine animals. WHAT’S ON TAP: On July 7, Newport Beach Harbor began a coordi-
nated effort to remove the Leaf Caulerpa, the endeavor was set to last four to five days. Divers extracted the invasive plant using vacuum pumps, the material was pumped onshore into containers where the algae and other solids were separated from the harbor water. After the removal is completed, divers will conduct surveys to confirm the algae was removed and to ensure it does not repopulate the area. The surveys will be conducted inside Newport Bay and the surrounding areas to check for invasion elsewhere. The removal and initial diver surveys are being funded by the State Water Resources Control Board, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and National Marine Fisheries Service will provide funding to support follow-up surveys. The public can report sightings of the algae at the CDFW website at https://wildlife.ca.gov/Conservation/Invasives/Species/ Caulerpa.

Laguna, Canyon of Lakes to Seaside Resort By: JORDAN B. DARLING LAGUNA BEACH— In the 1800’s the Spanish named this area “Canada de las Lagunas” (canyon of the lakes) and it was called Lagona until 1904 when the name was changed to Laguna Beach or just Laguna, according to a Dec. 12, 2020 article from DiscoverLaguna.com. This is similar to the original name that came from the first Native American settlers who named the area Lagona after the two freshwater lakes in Laguna canyon. Lagona became a seaside resort
after the first European settlers arrived, visitors had to stay in tents, but by the 1880’s families started to build summer homes and cottages by Laguna Beach and in 1889 Joseph Yoch opened Hotel Laguna, which is still standing today. The hotel attracted more travelers who would take the train to Irvine Station and then a stage coach to Laguna to enjoy the beach and the ocean. Laguna Beach is still a popular place to visit and is the home of three art festivals, Festival of Arts, Sawdust Festival, and the Art-A-Fair. It is also home to the Pageant of the Masters, a live re-creation of classical and contemporary works of art staged using real people.

LEMON GROVE — I never knew a day of fishing could change my life. Those words, written to Bill van Wulven more than 40 years ago by a wounded soldier van Wulven saw on the shore of Lake Murray and invited fishing, inspired and fueled a legacy of giving back to the community through dropping a line in the water. “And I don’t know why I said this but I felt compelled to say hey do you want to go fishing with me,” said van Wulven. “… and about a year later I get a letter from the guy… that’s why I started doing more charity work.” Van Wulven is the owner of Barnacle Bill’s Bait and Tackle in Lemon Grove and after 20 years of greeting customers by name, doling out fishing advice, and giving back to the community, van Wulven is retiring and selling the store to Dana Landing, a bait, tackle, and sportfishing

Oceanside Small Craft Harbor Fishing Pier Closes due to ‘Critical’ Structural Issues The issues indicated potential critical failure and the pier was immediately closed. By LINDSEY GLASGOW
OCEANSIDE — Oceanside Harbor has shut down its small craft fishing pier after an inspection identified structural deficiencies, including failures on pile cap connections, angle braces, beam hangers, and severe corrosion. The pier closed on June 17 and will remain closed until repairs can be made. Ted Schiafone, the harbor division manager, said they do anticipate some structural repairs connecting the pilings to the deck will need to be made and said he is hopeful to have a timeline for reopening the pier by August. In the meantime, harbor staff created a temporary location to fish in the harbor, at the suggestion of Oceanside Sea Center, located adjacent to the south side of the fishing pier entrance. The structural issues were brought to light during a harbor-wide assessment conducted by Brady & Associates of San Diego. The harbor has been undergoing an assessment of all harbor assets to determine the current condition of each harbor asset, the estimated remaining life of the asset, a future maintenance plan, and estimated costs for that future maintenance. The study began in February and is expected to be completed by November 2021. A Brady & Associates’ subcontractor will also prepare a proposed financial plan to ensure the harbor can continue to support its operations. In late May, during the initial phase
of the study, Brady & Associates identified some potential structural issues on the pier that were hidden from view and harbor staff initially limited capacity of the pier to 10 individuals. However, additional information was revealed indicating potential critical failure and the pier was immediately closed. “Brady has prepared an engineered repair plan that has gone out to three qualified marine contractors,” said Schiafone in an email. “As soon as we have those estimates in hand and repairs are made, we will determine a time when the Pier can be reopened.” Schiafone asks Oceanside Harbor visitors and anglers to only fish within the temporary location set up adjacent to the south side of the fishing pier entrance. “This is a high traffic area and we don’t want to see other pedestrians injured,” said Schiafone in an email. The city’s larger ocean pier remains open for fishing. The ocean pier is 1,954 feet long and one of the longest piers on the west coast. The harbor fishing pier is much smaller at about 100 feet but still very popular. In the summer months Schiafone said they see well over 30 people fishing on the pier each day. Once the inspections and study by Brady & Associates are completed, Oceanside will determine what work in the harbor needs to be done and how much it will cost. Oceanside Harbor was constructed in 1961 and most of the harbor’s docks were upgraded or replaced in the 1980s, with a few exceptions including the Guest Dock and Y-Dock which were upgraded between 2007 and 2009; Coast Guard Dock in 2001; X, W, V, U and T in 1997 and 1998. Repairs to the oldest dock in the harbor, J Dock, were completed this spring.

Meteor Showers to Fly Across Southern California
By: JORDAN B. DARLING SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA — Southern California’s night skies are going to be full of shooting stars through the end of August. The American Meteor Society has posted a schedule of meteor showers throughout 2021 and the Perseids meteor shower and Southern Delta Aquariids meteor shower are expected to light up the night skies for the next month and a half. Meteor showers, which are named for the constellations where they appear according to the NASA website, happen when the Earth passes through the trail of debris left by a comet or asteroid. The meteors themselves are bits of rock and ice ejected from comets, then when they burn up, they leave bright streaks across the sky gaining the nickname shooting stars or falling stars. The Peresids shower was expected to start on July 17 and will run through August 24, with peak nights on August 11 and 12, the meteor shower can be observed between 10 p.m. and 4:40 a.m.
with the peak hour between 3:40 a.m. and 4:40 a .m. “Perseid meteors are produced by particles shed by comet 109P/ Swift-Tuttle,” according to t h e G r i f fi t h Observatory website. “They hit our atmosphere at 37 miles (59 kilometers) per second.” Griffith expects 83 meteors per hour and said that the moon sets just as the meteors will start to appear meaning there will be great viewing conditions for this shower. The Peresids meteor shower will radiate from a point in the constellation Perseus the Hero. Perseus constellation is in the northern sky next to Andromeda, and represents the Greek hero Perseus who defeated Medusa and rescued the princess Andromeda. The legend says they lie next to each other in the night

sky. The South Delta Aquariids meteor shower was expected to start on July 21 and will run through August 23 with peak nights on July 27 and 28, the meteors can be observed from 10 p.m. until approximately 4:27 a.m. with the peak hour between 2:34 a.m. and 3:34 a.m. “South Delta Aquariid meteors may be produced by particles shed by a sun-grazing comet,” according to the Griffith Observatory website. “They strike our atmosphere at 25 miles (41 kilometers) per second. The radiant of the shower is in the constellation Aquarius the Water Carrier, found in the southern sky after midnight.” There are an expected 12 meteors per hour and due to bright moonlight, there will be interference with the observations. The Delta Aquariid meteors seem to radiate from a point near the front of the constellation Aquarius the Water Bearer, and favors the Southern Hemisphere but can sometimes be visible from the Northern Hemisphere. Aquarius is one of the 12 zodiac constellations and throughout history and across cultures has been associated with

water. In Greek mythology Aquarius is associated with their tale of the great flood, which parallels the Old Testament, and in ancient Egypt the constellation represents Hapi, God of the Nile, according to the EarthSky website. Bill Cooke, the lead for the Meteoroid Environment Office at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, gave some meteor shower watching tips in an April 13 article with Space. com. Basically, it is narrowed down to getting as far away from light pollution as possible; give your eyes 30-45 minutes to adjust to the dark night sky; leave your phone inside; and lay flat on your back to take in as much of the night sky as possible. “You do not want to look at the radiant,” Cooke said in the article. “A good philosophy is to lie on your back and look straight up. And that way, you take in as much of the sky as you can.” For more information on the meteors falling in 2021 and 2022 see the Griffith Observatory website at https://griffithobservatory.org/explore/observing-the-sky/ whats-in-the-sky/meteors/.

NASA Releases Study that Projects a Surge in Coastal Flooding Starting in 2030 The study predicts that beginning in 2030 U.S. coasts will see an increase in high tide flooding that could have a negative impact on coastal businesses and residences.
Flooding could increase during El Nino events and during normal tidal cycles.
By: JORDAN B. DARLING
NASA introduced a study that predicts a surge in tidal coastal flooding along the coasts of the United States, due to rising sea levels caused by climate change. The study predicts California will hit a tipping point in tidal flooding between 2030 and 2040, where the west coast will see an increase in flooding that could affect coastal businesses, residences, and recreational activities. The high tide flooding could flood parking lots and other structures near the coast during different times of the day, and it could remain underwater for hours to days. “So similar to how it impacts other businesses that operate along the coast,” said Ben Hamlington, team lead of the sea level change team for NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena and third author on the paper. “Increased levels of flooding so any infrastructure that is in these coastal areas will be affected as we go forward in to the future, they will experience flooding or be underwater for a period of time so it’s finding a way to adapt or adjust the infrastructure you have to accommodate this sea level rise or basically deal with the disruption to peer activities.” Hamlington called it the first level of impacts that coastal communities will see, a persistent low-level flooding that will continue to increase in frequency. Hamlington said the study used the natural signals in the ocean and predicted the surge based on the increase in sea level associated with global warming.

“I can’t tell you what year there will be an El Niño,” said Hamlington. “But I can tell you there will likely be one, so we can assess that impact, what you get from that, and then understand the different cycles and the tides and when you put that all together then you can start to make these assessments. So, it’s how you view sea level, it’s the stacking or how these things combine to get to the impact of the coast, the impact of high tide flooding.” The impacts for flooding are different along the coasts, the East Coast of the United States near the Gulf of Mexico, is already experiencing an increase in high-tide flooding and the study predicts that there will be an increase in frequency. In Southern California, the difference can vary in as short of a distance as La Jolla to San Diego. To read the full paper from NASA see https://bit.ly/36EmsaF.

Boating Accidents in California Increase 52% From 2019 to 2020 The U.S. Coast Guard recently released its 2020 Boating Safety Statistics Report providing a snapshot of the number of boating-related accidents and deaths in 2020 nationwide and statewide.
N AT I O N W I D E — Boating accidents nationwide and statewide were up in 2020 from the previous year, according the recently released U.S. Coast Guard’s 2020 Boating Safety Statistics Report. Boating accidents were up 26.3 percent and boating fatalities were up 25.1 percent nationwide in 2020 compared to 2019, according to the report. From 2019 to 2020, the total number of accidents increased from 4,168 to 5,265, and the number of boating fatalities increased from 613 to 767. The fatality rate was 6.5 deaths per 100,000 registered recreational vessels, representing a 25 percent increase from the 2019 fatality rate. Here in California, accidents were also up, from 324 in 2019 to 493 in 2020. The number of boating fatalities in California were 39 in 2020, the same as 2019. The increase in accidents coincided w ith a boating boom f ueled largely by the COVID-19 pandemic. “There is evidence that boating activity increased significantly during the pandemic, from reports of increased boat sales, insurance policies taken out, insurance claims, and calls for towing assistance,” the report stated. “With the increased exposure (i.e., more boating hours), there was greater risk of deaths, injuries, and accidents.” The Coast Guard said in the report it is analyzing variables associated with boating activity to normalize this accident data.

Ventura Harbor Continues Phased Improvement Project to Meet ADA Requirements
By: JORDAN B. DARLING
VENTURA — Ventura Harbor is waiting
to schedule one of the last pieces in an access improvement project that has been phased in over the past few years. The main part of this particular piece is to improve the accessibility of the entrance to Le Petit Cafe & Bakery, a longterm resident of the harbor village. “What we are doing there is upgrades to the main entryway which relates to hand rails and a ramp and that is going to tie into the ADA approved [requirements],” said Joe Gonzalez, acting capital projects manager for the harbor. The contract for the project was awarded to JTEC Corporation Inc. at the commission’s June 16 meeting for a total of $46,800 to complete the improvements to the Le Petit Cafe & Bakery entrance, as well as six other additives which included minor concrete replacement around the village. “While the Le Petit entrance is the principal element of the project there are six alternatives,” said Todd Mitchell, business operations manager for the harbor.” …Simply because we were having concrete work done and rather than having six additional projects, we entertained options for having other small concrete projects that weren’t specifically ADA but that needed to be done in the village and we opted that because of the competitiveness of their work we opted to give all the alternatives to the bid.”
The other additives include a wooden staircase removal to be replaced with concrete at 1591 building; sidewalk replacement at 1449 building; sidewalk replacement at 1431 building; curb replacements adjacent to building 1559 promenade planters; and curb replacement at 1449 building planters. JTEC also received a $75,500 bid for a trash enclosure project for one of the new restaurants in the village that is being tied into the ADA requirements project. That project broke ground on July 12 and is expected to take three months to complete. “The trash enclosure is a new trash enclosure that happens to be ADA compliant because the others were not and it also serves the need of increasing the size of the trash capacity,” said Mitchell. “We have a new restaurant that has opened and it is essential for that restaurant that an ADA trash enclosure be available and with the new requirements for food waste disposal we had to increase the size of the trash enclosure to accommodate that.” There was a survey conducted in 2014 and 2015 by the district and a consultant to see if they were in compliance with ADA guidelines, the list of buildings surveyed was district-owned: buildings, parking lots, and beaches in Ventura Harbor and Ventura Harbor Village. “This has been part of a multi-year multi-phase ADA improvement project,” said Brian Pendleton, general manager for Ventura Harbor. “…We’ve had the opportunity to bring major improvement as you know from other projects in terms of the buildings from the painting to the roofs and other things but this programming and this project has been directly geared toward making the harbor village more accessible.” The harbor will still be accessible during the construction period, there will be reduced parking in the area around the construction and one ADA spot will be inaccessible during this time because of this placement adjacent to the trash enclosure.

Newport Beach Harbor Commission Approves Council Policy H-1 Revisions
By: LINDSEY GLASGOW
NEWPORT BEACH— The Newport Beach Harbor Commission has unanimously agreed on proposed revisions to Council Policy H-1, which provides criteria for staff and the Harbor Commission when making decisions regarding piers and floats within Newport Harbor, specifically the distance they extend bayward throughout the harbor. The changes, approved at the Commission’s July 14 meeting, give the Commission more flexibility and discretion to approve structures that were not built exactly in accordance with the permit but have been encroaching for some time; add discretionary criteria of preserving harbor views and being aesthetically compatible with the surroundings; change the title of the policy to more accurately reflect its purpose; and add a clarification that approval under H-1 may not be enough to move forward with the project, there may be other applicable requirements under Title 17, such as having to get a harbor development permit, which
would require the Commission make the specific findings for such permit. The proposed new title of the policy is “Pier and Float Extensions Beyond the Pierhead Line.” The revisions also create a Part A and B, with A being the main section and B addressing the un- The Harbor Commission’s proposed changes to Council u s u a l o r o u t l i e r Policy H-1, which lays out the process for exceptions to when parts of the Harbor, piers and floats may extend beyond the pierhead line, give such as the “like-for- the Commission more discretion to approve structures that like” reconstruction were not built exactly in accordance with the permit but language. have been encroaching for some time. “For those piers and floats in areas where the pierhead line does not exist guidance on Newport Beach Municipal or where the bayward extension of those Code Section 17.35.030(A) which states: structures is not clearly limited by the “Piers and floats may not extend beyond pierhead line, staff may approve pier and the pierhead line unless approved in comfloat reconstruction projects if the exist- pliance with Council policy as may be ing pier or float is in substantial confor- amended from time to time.” The Counmance with the city-issued permit and cil Policy was established in 1964 and has the reconstruction is of exactly the same been revised 62 times since then. square footage or less, and substantially The City Council had asked the Comsimilar configuration, including updates mission to review the policy after severrequired to conform to current code and al recent applications heard by the Harbuilding standards,” Part B states. “Proj- bor Commission led to confusion about ects that do not meet the criteria for staff making a determination of what should approval shall be reviewed in accordance be allowed, particularly when considering with the other provisions of Title 17.” what should be allowed under a “like-forThe proposed revisions will now go to like” reconstruction permit application the City Council for final approval. when the dock currently already extends The purpose of the policy is to provide past the pierhead line.

Council Policy H-1 is intended to layout the process for exceptions to a city municipal code rule which states piers and floats may not extend beyond the pierhead line.
OTHER COMMISSION NEWS Also at the July 14 Harbor Commission meeting, the commissioners voted to create a new subcommittee which will be tasked with evaluating affordable access to the harbor. The idea came from Commissioner Scott Cunningham, who will head up the subcommittee. Commissioners Marie Marston and Steve Scully volunteered to also serve on the subcommittee. Cunningham cited a recent survey of slip rates in the harbor, which listed them as the highest in Orange County. “I asked myself what could we do, could we look at this in a little more detail and maybe there’s a way for us to find a way to slice off the pie a little bit and truly come up with an affordable program that people can get into boating or get into a slip or some storage within the harbor at really a more affordable rate,” said Cunningham at the meeting.
Officers Elected for 2021-22 The Harbor Commission has elected new officers for the 2021-22 year. Current Chair Bill Kenney was nominated and elected as chair again, current Secretary Ira Beer was nominated and elected vice chair and Commissioner Steve Scully was nominated and elected secretary.
The research provides a library of DNA “barcodes” that identify 605 different species in the California Current. By: JORDAN B. DARLING LOS ANGELES — University of California,
Los Angeles released a study on July 8 categorizing 605 species, including 275 species previously not identified, that live in the California Current into a genomic library using DNA barcodes created from the unique order of amino acids that identify each species. In a July 8 press release UCLA said the new database would enable researchers, conservationists, fisheries, and wildlife managers to better understand what is happening to native species and their ecosystems. While the database is not currently able to account for abundance, how many of the species are in the area, it does account for what species are there which can be helpful moving forward.
The database can be used to monitor these systems more closely and hopefully identify hotspots where species may need more protection, and could allow authorities a better handle on policing the fishing industry for the capture or harvest of endangered species. The database could also lend itself to managing fisheries by using samples to identify how many eggs are being produced by important species of fish and help maintain healthy populations. Researchers led by UCLA ecologist Paul Barber used environmental DNA, a genetic material shed by in this case, marine life, into their environment. Using the material allowed scientists to collect samples of ocean water that they could then test for the environmental DNA and compare to the DNA they already had on file. “It’s like a crime scene where there is lots of forensic evidence, like blood or hair,” said Barber in the July 8 press release. “It isn’t useful unless you have a potential match in a database.” Previously species were found by physically counting and identifying the marine life through divers or by counting fish eggs and larvae under a microscope, a
process that can be limiting. Researchers are hopeful that with this new libr a r y o t h e r r e searchers can identif y species w ith scoops of water that can be analyzed in a shorter period of time. “In the field, visibility can be poor and conditions too dangerous to scuba dive — it ’s even tougher for the deep sea where you can’t Previously the best way to account for fish in the region even send divers,” was to have a diver go in and count the fish through said Zack Gold, re- physical identification. searcher at the Universit y of Wa shington and the National Oceanic and databases must be tailored to individual Atmospheric Administration and lead ecosystems and species but the paper lays author of the paper, in the press release. out the best way to accomplish that for fu“But you can always take a water sample ture libraries around the world. off the side of the boat.

Santa Barbara Slip Assignment Policy Subcommittee to Bring Recommendations to the Harbor Commission The subcommittee is expected to bring suggested policy revisions to the full commission in August. By: LINDSEY GLASGOW
SANTA BARBARA— A subcommittee that
has been looking into Santa Barbara’s slip assignment policy is expected to make a recommendation to the full Harbor Commission at its August meeting. “We may be reaching a good point to kind of take this full topic back to the full Harbor Commission to ensure that we’re on track,” said Mike Wiltshire, Santa Barbara waterfront director, at a July 15 subcommittee meeting. The Santa Barbara Harbor Commission created the Slip Assignment Policy on Sept. 17, 2020, to address policy concerns that had been raised by slip tenants and investigate ways of improving the policy. Concerns included the cost of the slip transfer fee, the inability to add an adult family member to a slip permit without paying a transfer fee, and concerns about paying a county possessory interest tax. The subcommittee met on July 15 and agreed on plans to present findings and recommendations to the full Harbor Commission in August. The transfer fee currently ranges from $200 a foot for slips less than 20 feet to $525 a foot for slips between 35
feet and 100 feet. The waterfront bases the cost of the transfer fee on private market value, with the fee ranging from 5 to 35 percent of the market value of the slips. The subcommittee plans to suggest restructuring this fee. “This is kind of one of the big ideas that we’ve been working on over the last year and it’s really the idea of changing the structure of the slip permit transfer fees to be more proportional and kind of potentially be based on the market value of the slip permits,” said Wiltshire. The commission would still need to figure out a method of determining market values and decide on an implementation timeline. The subcommittee will also present findings on the two other concerns. Assistant City Attorney at the City of Santa Barbara Sarah Knecht said at the July 15 meeting they have determined adding a family member at a discounted rate violates the city’s legal obligation under the Tidelands Trust and said the California State Lands Commission has agreed with that conclusion. “It’s our duty to take that responsibility and look at it for benefit for all the citizens of the state and not particular users,” said Knecht. The subcommittee also agreed even though the harbor community wants something done about the county possessory interest tax, it is not in their purview. The Santa Barbara Harbor Commission is scheduled to meet on Aug. 19.

SANTA MONICA — On July 8, The Bay
Foundation announced the addition of a section on Marine Protected Areas to its current educational program, the foundation also announced the addition of education materials now available in both English and Spanish to increase accessibility. There are three additional tools that were added online to teach and engage boaters about MPAs and how to positively interact with them. The first part is a Fishing Introduction video, created by the foundation in partnership with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. The video is an animated feature on California’s MPA network, it breaks down the different types of MPAs and shows boaters positive interactions. “When we produced the MPA video we approached this vast ocean network through the lens of a boater,” said Andrea Carrassi, community engagement coordinator at The Bay Foundation. “So rather than showing what not to do when you’re out on the water, we decided to empower boaters by showing them the value of MPAs and how to positively interact with these protected areas, and also highlight the convenient and relevant tools they could utilize while they are boating.” The second part is a MPA Knowledge Review Quiz, the quiz takes the user through a customized journey based on how they interact with MPAs whether that is through boating, fishing, or just going to the beach. “You can split up the quiz in so many ways,” said Carrassi. “...When you’re tak-
ing the quiz, if you were to answer something wrong or even answer the question correctly, the quiz then cues you to utilize the resource that points you to whatever information you might need to answer that question.” The third resource is a how-to on creating your own Fishing Line Recycling Container. The guide is focused on using household materials to create a fishing line recycling container, and helps anglers find the nearest fishing line recycling station. The California Legislature passed the Marine Life Protection Act in 1999, which created a statewide network of marine protected areas, to protect and conserve California’s natural marine wildlife and marine habitat. Currently there are 124 different MPAs, Recreational Man-
Dockwalkers was established as a state program in 1999

The additional section is a part of the larger boater outreach and education provided by the Bay Foundation since it’s initiation in 1990.

agement Areas, and Special Closures in California. According to Carrassi there are over 4 million recreational boaters in California and based on a statewide survey completed by The Bay Foundation, they have found that 50 percent of those recreational boaters use their boats for fishing. The foundation is looking to engage boaters and share the best boating practices while raising environmental awareness. “...One of the aims of this project has been to create really engaging and educational tools that are really tailored to answer the questions that recreation-
al boaters and anglers might have,” said Carrassi. The Bay Foundation is a non-profit based in Santa Monica that was created in the 90s to enhance and restore Santa Monica Bay. The foundation works with a broad category of government agencies and environmental groups to restore and protect California marine life and habitats. One of their already existing programs is the California Dockwalker program, a statewide effort led by the California Coastal Commission and the California Division of Boating and Waterways’ Boating Clean and Green Program im-
plemented and in partnership with The Bay Foundation. The program was started in 1999, and is a public outreach program that distributes boater kits with educational materials. They look to engage boaters to increase education and green boating practices. “I think that it’s been really great,” said Carrassi. “The materials that we are incorporating into pre-existing components of our program are going to be there for the foreseeable future.” To learn more about educational resources from The Bay Foundation visit https://www.santamonicabay.org.

For the first time in 40 years the City of Long Beach regains full control of the historic Queen Mary housed in Long Beach Harbor. By: JORDAN B. DARLING
LONG BE ACH — Long Beach City has regained full control of the Queen Mary, and authorized a $2 million temporary caretaker contract with the current on-ship operator Evolution Hospitality. On June 4 the city reported that the previous lease-owner Urban Commons Queensway LLC, a Long Beach-based traveling company that has been leasing the Queen Mary since 2016, was surrendering its existing leases and filing a motion to formally reject the leases through the bankruptcy process. The lease was in default for several violations, including failure to maintain the ship caused in part by decades of deferred maintenance by previous operators. On June 8, the Long Beach City Council voted to enter into a $2 million contract with Evolution Hospitality, a third-party hospitality management company, for a
six-month extension on the current contract with the possibility of a six-month renewal. The vote on June 8 authorized a total of $2.5 million to maintain the liner and plan out repairs in order to reopen. The remaining $500,000 after the $2 million contract with Evolution Hospitality will go to the city’s contract engineer, Moffat and Nicol, to develop the engineering and design repair work. Moffat and Nicol estimated the cost of the needed immediate repairs is $5 million. The city also voted to include an amendment for staff to consider establishing a historical designation for the Queen Mary including a federal national monument declaration. It is unclear when the repairs will start, but AP News reported that officials expected it to start temporary work soon which included installing temporary bilge pumps, warning systems for leaks, and removing lifeboats and installing an emergency on-shore generator. The Queen Mary will remain closed to the public while critical repairs are made. The last time the city was in control of day-to-day operations of the Queen Mary was from 1978, and the Port of Long Beach held ownership until 1993 before leasing out to private companies for the past few decades, according to the June 4 press release from the City of Long

Long Beach City Regains Control of Queen Mary and Authorizes Repairs
The Queen Mary has been in Long Beach Harbor since Dec. 1967 Beach. The Queen Mary retired in Long Beach Harbor in 1967, after 31 years at sea. The lu x u r y l i ner w a s bu i lt i n Clydebank, Scotland during the Great Depression and carried an estimated 2.2 million passengers in peace times and 810,000 personnel during WWII, according to the Queen Mary website. Since settling into the harbor, the liner has had an estimated 50 million vis-
itors and according to a study published by the city in May 2020 the ship has provided over 1,300 jobs and produced $94 million in economic output and $3.3 million in tax revenue annually, according to the press release. The city is set to meet again to discuss additional oppositions and strategies for preserving the Queen Mary. The City of Long Beach could not be reached for comment at this time.

Consultant Selected to Prepare Public Amenities Plan for King Harbor

MARINE INSURANCE MADE SIMPLE, AFFORDABLE & EFFECTIVE
with SWA. Funding for the contract was approved as part of the 2021-2022 Fiscal Year Budget approved by the City Council on June 22. Stephen Proud, Redondo Beach Waterfront & Economic Development Director, said the proposal from SWA said they would adhere as closely as possible to the Harbor Commission’s recommended schedule, which is to complete the scope of work within six months with the last three months to include review by the Commission and City Council. The proposal also called out the Moonstone Park planning process as a separate scope of work that will move in a parallel path at the same time as the other scope of work. The general scope of work includes reviewing existing Waterfront conditions and previous planning documents, technical studies, and design work related to the various public amenities located or proposed for King Harbor; preparing a framework plan that sets forth an overall site plan for the area that addresses which amenities should be rebuilt or renovated, where the amenities should be located, and what recreational and operational elements should be included in their design. The public amenities plan will include ways to enhance the waterfront promenade connecting Mole C to the Horseshoe Pier and specifically, ways to improve the overall pedestrian experience along the International Boardwalk and reduce flooding that occurs along the boardwalk during high tides; the location and design of the public boat launch facility and required support parking; a plan for the future use, design, and lay-out of Seaside Lagoon; the location and programmatic elements of a replacement for Sportfishing Pier, if any; consideration of large public events that may take place within the plan footprint; the location and design of a dinghy dock to serve the harbor mooring field; upgrades to the city’s existing personal watercraft hand launching facility, including the consideration of a zero-depth launch option; and consideration of additional amenities, educational features, visitor attractions, and public art.
R E D O N D O B E A C H — Long awaited plans to redevelop Redondo Beach’s King Harbor, which includes constructing a boat launch ramp, have moved yet another step forward. The Redondo Beach Harbor Commission announced at its July 12 meeting a selection committee has decided on awarding a contract to SWA, a consulting firm, to put together the public amenities plan for King Harbor. The recommendation is expected to go before the City Council for final approval on Aug. 10 or 17. The public amenities plan will help establish a framework to improve and enhance various amenities within King Harbor as Redondo Beach continues to move forward with efforts to revitalize the waterfront area. The plan will address what amenities should be rebuilt or renovated, where the various amenities should be located, and what recreational and operational elements should be included in the design. A Request for Proposals for the public amenities plan was issued in mid-April with a deadline of May 24. The city received five responses from CMG Landscape Architecture/Moffat and Nichol, Groundworks Office/Anchor QEA, Hirsch & Associates/Anchor QEA, Moore Ruble Yudell/PSOMAS, and SWA/Anchor QEA. A selection committee comprised of representatives from the Waterfront and Economic Development Department, Public Works, Community Development, and Harbor Commission Chair Jim Light reviewed the proposals and selected three teams to participate in oral interviews. Following the interviews, the selection committee unanimously selected the SWA team for recommendation to the City Council. “They answered everything very well and very clearly and their oral presentation rose above everybody else we listened to, to me it was an obvious choice but it was also a consensus amongst everybody,” said Light at SWA, a consulting firm, is selected by a special committee the Harbor Commis- to put together a public amenities plan for King Harbor. sion meeting.

Catalina Connection By: JORDAN B. DARLING
CATALINA— Catalina Express is celebrating their 40-year anniversary with a 40 Trips in 40 Days giveaway that was set to start on July 15 and end Aug. 24.

Interested parties can fill out the form once a day until Aug. 24 and one winner will be chosen every day during the

Catalina Express was founded in July 1981 by Doug Bombard, his son Greg Bombard, and Tom Rutter; they started the first year with a 56-foot 60-passenger monohull vessel. In 1989 the company went from a single port location to two locations, one in San Pedro and one in Redondo Beach, which was redrawn three years later. In the 1990s the company acquired their first catamarans and built additional customized monohulls, Avalon Express, Catalina Express, and Islander Express, which are all in service today. In the summer of 1998, the express added a port location in Dana Point and in the early 2000 the company completed the current route network with an additional location in Downtown Long Beach.

Sailing David Dahl of Newport Beach, is sailing the race for the first time with his two sons and six of his closest friends. By: LINDSEY GLASGOW
LOS ANGELES — The biennial Transpacific
Yacht Race draws returning competitors, new competitors, and all competitors in-between. A total of 41 monohull were signed up for 51st edition of the 2225mile offshore race from Los Angeles to Honolulu, Hawaii, which began July 13, 16, and 17, with staggered start times in an effort to compress the fleet’s finish times. Whittier Trust CEO and Newport Harbor Yacht Club member David Dahl is participating for the first time this year in the Transpac, or as he calls it, the “granddaddy” of Pacific Coast sailing. “The granddaddy in college football, in my view, is the Rose Bowl… and on Pacific Coast sailing the Transpac is the granddaddy of them all,” said Dahl. The well-respected race is one of the
world’s oldest major ocean races and has been raced biennially, with few exceptions, since 1906. “We’re going to be in a very, very competitive fleet,” said Dahl. “We’re almost an all-amateur boat, 80 or 90 percent of the crew it will be their very, very first Transpac race.” Dahl is racing with his two sons, Sean, 23, and Michael, 28, and six of his closest friends. The crew have been preparing for the Transpac for the last 18 months, sailing in several offshore races including the Newport to Cabo San Lucas Yacht Race and Newport to Ensenada International Yacht Race. “I think both of them [Sean and Michael] started off by saying let’s do this because its dad’s bucket list but all of the sudden a month into it, I realized they weren’t doing it for dad any longer…they went into competition, ambition mode and said we’re doing this because of the thrill of it,” said Dahl. The group is sailing an Andrews 77, designed by Alan Andrews and built by Dencho in 2003. Originally named Alchemy, the team renamed the boat in March of 2020 to Compadres. “We renamed the boat Compadres just because of that lifelong friendship,” said Dahl.

Whittier Trust CEO and Sons Sail Their First Transpacific Yacht Race
Whittier Trust CEO and Newport Harbor Yacht Club member David Dahl and his two sons, Sean, 23, and Michael, 28, at the helm of Compadres. They, along with six of David’s close friends, are sailing their first ever Transpacific Yacht Race this year. Whittier Trust is the Heritage Sponsor for this year’s race and the family has been involved in the race since 1923. The Whittier brothers sailed the Transpac race in 1923 when racing resumed after World War I. The brothers set sail on Poinsettia, a 107-foot yacht, but after a two-day long storm blew its sails to ribbons, Poinsettia was forced to turn back. Since then, many Whittier employees have sailed in the race and Dahl said he figured it was his turn. “It was really the desire to get in shape and get the practice for the Transpac that led us to continue in the last 18 months to go off and do the offshore racing,” said
Dahl. Dahl said they have three goals for the race: be safe, be fast, and have fun. He said he hopes sailing this race with his sons helps inspire his sons to do the same with their kids. “I hope it’s one of those lifetime experiences where one day they’ll look at their children and say I did this with your grandfather and I did it and it creates kind of a legacy going forward,” said Dahl. Compadres took off on July 17 and Dahl expected they would reach Honolulu in six days.

Study Suggests Predatory Species Benefit Minimally by Extra Forage Fish in Already Managed Fisheries
Shuttersttock photo
The study concluded in forage fisheries that are already being well managed and closely monitored, adopting additional precautionary measures would likely not provide any additional benefits to predator population growth. By: LINDSEY GLASGOW SANTA BARBARA. — A newly released
study has found for many predator species, additional precautionary management of forage fish is unlikely to bring more benefits. The study, conducted by Drs. Chris Free of the University of California-Santa Barbara, Olaf Jensen of the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Ray Hilborn of the University of Washington, was published in April in Conservation Biology. “We were really interested in understanding how the abundance of forage fish, which are small fish at the bottom of the food chain, impacts the productivity of predators that we care about, like seabirds and mammals and even predatory fish,” said Free. Tuna, rockfish, squid, and salmon are all predator populations which feed on forage fish and are all economically im-
A snowy white egret eats a fish on the beach. A new study looked at how the abundance of forage fish, which are small fish at the bottom of the food chain, impacts the productivity of predators like seabirds, mammals, and larger fish. portant species here in California and nationwide. In many parts of the world, forage fish fisheries are managed using precautionar y pr inciples that target catch limits below the maximum sustainable yield, but there are increasing calls to further limit forage fish catch, on the premise more measures will better provide for the needs of predator species including seabirds, marine mammals, and fish. The findings of the study are particularly relevant as legislators are consider-
ing a bill introduced this year, the Forage Fish Conservation Act, which would require the Secretary of Commerce to develop a definition of forage fish, as well as improve the conservation, monitoring, and management of these fish species. Free and his team examined decades of historical abundance data of both forage species and their predators from five regions around the world and using mathematical models, found of the 45 predator populations studied, only 6, or 13 percent, were positively influenced by extra forage fish. Those included four fish, white mar-
lin, cod, stripped marlin, and Arrowtooth flounder, and two birds, arctic tern, and Cape gannet. “What that broadly suggests is that extra precautionary catch limits on forage fish are unlikely to sort of preserve predator populations any more than the precautionary measures that we already use to manage forage fish,” said Free. He said California and more broadly, most of the United States, already have well-managed forage fisheries. “What we find is that current fisheries management has been successful at holding forage fish abundance above thresholds that would negatively impact predators,” said Free. The team also evaluated the impact of sea surface temperature, which is a broad indicator of ecosystem change, on predator populations. They found sea surface temperature had more impact on predator populations than just the abundance of their targeted forage fish prey. “One of the reasons we think predators have been so resilient to changes in their forage fish prey is that they’re highly mobile, they have high diet flexibility, which both of those things together allow them to go and target prey that are doing well in certain years and that makes them really sort of robust to changes in forage fish abundance,” said Free. Free said the study could have important implications for how strictly to manage forage fisheries.

NOAA opened the floor for public comment on the draft of its Mitigation Policy for Trust Resources on May 7. By: JORDAN B. DARLING NATIONWIDE— The National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration set a July 30 deadline for public comment on its draft Mitigation Policy for Trust Resources. The goal of the draft mitigation policy is improved conservation of NOAA’s trust resources, which include commercial and recreational fishery resources, critical habitats, and endangered and threatened marine species, through more effective mitigation of adverse impacts. The policy is the first and only comprehensive national policy on mitigation, it provides step-by-step guidance to mitigation without expanding the NOAA’s authority and remains in compliance with existing authorities. The NOAA lists the purpose of the draft as a way to implement NOAA mit-
igation practices in a consistent, effective and transparent manner. The NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries Service in conjunction with other NOAA program offices will lead a biennial review of the policy to ensure the policy is working the way it’s supposed to. There are eight steps the NOAA will use in their decision process for recommendations and decisions on mitigation. Apply the mitigation sequence appropriately; Employ the best scientific information available; Apply a holistic landscape and/or seascape approach; Promote mitigation strategies with high probability of success; Consider climate change and climate resilience when evaluating and developing mitigation measures; Implement The draft mitigation policy is the first comprehensive guide to mitigation on a national level. mitigation that is proportional to impacts to NOAA trust resources and fully offsets those impacts; Use preservation of intact habitat as compensation appropriately, tak- Collaborate with partner agencies and ument/noaas-draft-mitigation-poliing into account the high risk of habitat stakeholders. cy-trust-resources, and public comment loss in many rapidly developing coastal The full draft can be read at https:// can be submitted to mitigationpolicy. and marine landscapes and seascapes; www.fisheries.noaa.gov/resource/doccomments@noaa.gov.

san diego fish report BLUEFIN, YELLOWFIN, YELLOWTAIL, DOROADO AND STRIPED MARLIN BITING IN LOCAL OFFSHORE WATERS! By Bob Vanian of 976Bite.com
Southern California offshore anglers are continuing to witness the ongoing surge of improvement in the 2021 offshore fishing season. Bluefin tuna and yellowtail have been biting offshore for several months now but anglers are currently starting to see additional warmer water species such as yellowfin tuna, dorado, and striped marlin enter the picture for more variety. The offshore water temperatures have continued to warm and there is now 74-degree water being reported at the 475 Knuckle area outside of the Finger Bank.
Bluefin tuna continue to highlight offshore fishing and the massive expanse of ocean where bluefin can be located continues to expand. The past weekend saw bluefin biting around offshore banks ranging from the 475 Knuckle area that is located about 35 miles below Point Loma all the way up to the area of the 499 Spot off the backside of Catalina Island. Some of the better areas in recent days have been in the region of the 499 Spot, 2 to 6 miles northeast over to southeast of Pyramid Head at San Clemente Island, the 289 Spot, the 312 Spot, the 182 Spot, the area 4 to 20 miles southwest of La Jolla, the 178 Spot and the area 4 to 5 miles west of Point Loma.
What adds to the encouraging offshore fishing picture is that an area of kelp paddy yellowtail, with a mix of small bluefin, mixed size yellowfin, and a few dorado have been located by boats fishing the region of the 475 Knuckle in an area ranging from 30 to 45 miles 165 to 170 degrees from Point Loma. Near limit to limit numbers of yellowtail are being caught from this zone along with a mix of a few yellowfin tuna, bluefin tuna and, dorado.
The bluefin remains the primary focus of a lot of boats and they have been mixed size fish that have been running from 10 to 200-plus pounds with most in the 30 to 140-pound range. Productive bluefin methods have been fishing with 4-ounce torpedo sinker rigged sardines, flylined sardines, kite fished sardines, kite fished frozen flying fish, Flat Fall jigs, knife jigs, Colt Snipers, poppers, surface iron and stick baits. Flat fall jigs and knife jigs usually are the best for fishing meter marks during the dark. Trolling has also accounted for a few bluefin and yellowfin. Trolled cedar plugs have been working for bluefin and yellowfin and kite trolled Yummy Flyers have been picking up a few bluefin. There was also a recent report from a Skipper who reported catching two large bluefin on a trolled spreader bar rig that was trolled very far behind the boat.
Private boater Robert Serdoz of Lucky Charm fished a recent trip which I believe was a solo trip. He reported working the area from southeast of the

312 Spot on out to the San Clemente Canyon out by San Clemente Island and reported seeing lots of spots of breaking bluefin tuna and a few spots of breaking yellowfin tuna. Serdoz fished until noon and was successful in catching a 60-pound bluefin tuna that bit on a mint and white color Tady 45 that he had cast to a school of breaking bluefin.
Private boater Pete Otis of Reel Deal reported about fishing on a recent trip targeting bluefin tuna. Otis found a lot of bluefin activity out to the southwest of La Jolla and said that they caught two bluefin out of six bluefin hookups. Otis said they were using 40 pound test fluorocarbon leaders to be able to fish with enough stealth to draw strikes on flylined live sardines. They were hooking good-sized bluefin and some of the hookups were broken off due to the use of light line relative to the size of fish they were hooking. The two bluefin they boated were 80-pound fish and they found their best bluefin activity at 13 miles 299 degrees from Point Loma.
Private boater Tom Golding of Last Buck reported about fishing on a recent trip where they found lots of spots of breaking bluefin tuna and said that most of the bluefin they found did not want to bite. They did get one bluefin to bite through and the hookup came while drifting and fishing with a sinker and rubber band rigged live sardine that was fished with 80-pound test.
Golding was the angler and he said it was a strong and mean bluefin and that the battle was made worse by a jerky drag on his reel and by the fact the reel’s drag kept loosening up while he was fighting the fish. Golding fought the fish for 5 hours before they were able to get it alongside the boat and get a gaff in it. Getting a gaff in the fish was not the end of the battle though as once gaffed, the fish was still green and went “berserk” and ripped the gaff out of the gaffer’s hands. Once the bluefin calmed down they were able to get it back alongside the boat, get another couple of gaffs in it and get it aboard. The first gaff they used that got ripped out of the gaffer’s hands was a bamboo gaff which floated to the surface and they were able to retrieve the gaff after getting the big bluefin on the boat.
Captain Bob Woodard of the Christina Lynn fished a recent trip targeting bluefin and reported catching two bluefin tuna out of four bluefin hookups. Both their bluefin were 40-pound fish and Sam Minervini of the private boat Sailfish boated one of the bluefin and Woodard boated the other. Two of their hookups were on sardines, one hookup came on an iron jig cast to breaking fish and the other hookup was Please see FISH REPORT, PAGE 28

on a live mackerel. Their main area of bluefin activity was found at 15 miles 267 degrees from Point Loma.
Floyd Sparks of Tuna Kahuna reported about fishing on a recent trip targeting bluefin and his report was that they caught four bluefin tuna. Three of the bluefin were 60-pound class fish and the fourth was a 120-pound fish. Sparks said that all four bluefin were caught on sardines and that they found their fish out to the southwest of the 178 Spot. Sparks said that they started the day fishing at 16 miles 268 degrees from Point Loma and by the end of the day were out at 22 miles 265 degrees from Point Loma.
Sparks said that the highlight of the day was that his son Dillon’s friend Cole Peters caught his first-ever bluefin tuna that taped out at 60 pounds. What was even better was that a short time later Peters caught his second-ever bluefin which was a whopper of a 120-pound fish! Nice going, Cole! Congratulations!
Bill Parker of Cabo fished a recent trip targeting bluefin and reported starting the day by working the area about 15 miles off Encinitas. They found some action in this area and hooked and lost three bluefin tuna. One bluefin was lost to a broken hook, another was lost when the reel got spooled and the other was
The good news was that their day was not over after losing the three hookups and Parker said they found another area of breaking bluefin at the Carlsbad Canyon during the afternoon where they were successful in boating a 70-plus pound bluefin tuna. The big bluefin bit on a Colt Sniper that was cast to breaking fish while fishing 4.6 miles off the Carlsbad Power Plant.
Striped marlin have been trickling into local offshore waters with a report of one marlin being caught and with several jumpers and an additionally lost hookup being reported. Most of the marlin activity has been found incidental to bluefin tuna fishing in the area of the 182 Spot and in the area out to the west and the southwest of La Jolla.
The surface fishing at Los Coronado Islands has been good for a mix of calico bass, barracuda, and yellowtail along with a chance at a bluefin tuna. The most recent sport boat trips saw San Diego out of Seaforth Sportfishing had 21 anglers on a full day trip catch 39 calico bass, 64 barracuda, 16 bluefin tuna and 5 yellowtail. H&M Landing had Malihini out on a full day trip with 26 anglers who caught 68 calico bass, 61 rockfish, 42 barracuda, and 11 yellowtail. H&M Landing also had Jig Strike fishing, an overnight trip with 10 anglers catching
50 calico bass, 31 barracuda, 27 yellowtail, and 1 white seabass.
Some of the better areas for the mixed bag surface fishing have been the Middle Grounds, the north end of South Island, the Ribbon Kelp, and the South Kelp. Yellowtail have been located by finding sonar marks, meter marks, spots of fish up on the surface, trolling strikes on deep diving Rapalas, and trolling strikes on slow trolled sardines. Good choices for surface iron that work well for yellowtail and barracuda include Salas 7X lights and Tady 45’s in blue and white, mint and sardine colors.
The bluefin tuna around Los Coronado Islands have been mostly 10 to 20-pound fish and the best areas for a chance at a bluefin have been at spots around and below South Island such as the South Kelp, the South Kelp Ridge, and the Lighthouse at the south tip of South Island.
at Point Loma, the Green Tank at Point Loma, Point Loma College, the upper end of La Jolla, Del Mar, Solana Beach, Leucadia, South Carlsbad, and the Barn.
