Council members put out call for possible candidate submissions, decide to appoint a replacement at the next meeting later in June.

By Devon Warren-Kachelein

AVALON—The Avalon City Council, after the death of council member Pam Albers in May, is being faced with the tough decision of filling her seat.

Council members, during the June 4 meeting, agreed to appoint Albers’s replacement at the next meeting.

Council members were given two options to fill Albers’s chair: appointing a new member or holding a special election. Ultimately, the council decided against the special election due to expense and timeliness.

According to city staff, a special election could cost between $30,000 and $50,000 of taxpayers’ money. A special election would be required to take place in October or November – council members were also not keen on the idea of having a vacant chair for several months.

City staff stated that council members would have 60 days to fill the seat if by appointment; the deadline is July

18. If a council member is appointed, they would not be appointed for Albers’ full term, which would have ended in 2022. Instead, the appointed council member will serve until the next election on March 3, 2020.

Council members and the public were torn about the decision, many citing Albers’s fierce dedication to research and her position.

Council member Cinde MacGuganCassidy mentioned the possibility of appointing the candidate who received the most votes after Albers.

Steve Hoefs, who held positions as Avalon city manager and fire chief, was Albers’s runner-up and received just 17 votes less in the final count. There was support for Hoefs in MacGuganCassidy, Council member Oley Olsen and several members of the public.

However, council members agreed to put out a call for submissions from members of the public who would be interested in filling Albers’s seat.

Complicating matters, council members made the decision that the submission process should be similar to how the current council was selected. Mayor Ann Marshall stated sitting council members never had to submit their resumes or other similar documentation. Marshall felt council members should not dictate the

applications or how candidates wish to submit their information. Instead, council members said they would give potential appointees the option to submit their material until June 12 at 3 p.m. Afterwards council members will review submissions and move to make an appointment at the Council member Pam Albers died in Torrance in May.

Will fish be used as underwater spies by DARPA in the near future?

2C FLORIDA—The United States Navy has a history of using marine mammals, specifically dolphins and sea lions, for service purposes. Learning about this fact surprised some, especially after a beluga whale that was reportedly a Russian spy made a big splash for his altruistic tendencies. Several news outlets, however, have been reporting on a new study

by United States Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), which will survey fish for the possibility of using them as underwater spies.

Lori Adornato, manager of initiative for DARPA, told The Independent, “The PALS program was developed to leverage the great sensitivity that organisms have in the ocean to changes in their environment.” She also stated the living organisms, in contrast to robots, computers or other sonar (which is most commonly used), provide “a lot more flexibility in how

Re: Time’s Up: Putting the Clock on Waterfront Development (issue May 17-30)

Opposition to Time Limits on Waterfront Developments I read with much interest the Standing Watch article in the May 17 edition of The Log. While I am sure that Parimal’s reasoning was well intentioned, I would argue that putting a deadline on waterfront development is the absolute wrong thing to do.

Those of us in the industry know that waterfront development will always have opponents, and as a result normally takes many years. That opposition normally comes from residents who already enjoy living on the waterfront, and do not want anyone else living on the waterfront and enjoying the life they are privileged to enjoy.

If a deadline is put on all waterfront development, then that NIMBY opposition will have a huge weapon in that all they have to do is fight until the timeclock runs out and they can then keep the waterfront to themselves.

Earn green to keep your marina green Free money is available from BoatUS (among others) to help local groups implement clean (and safe) boating practices.

By Parimal M. Rohit NATIONWIDE—Boaters and anglers are certainly stewards of the water. Environmental issues certainly matter to anyone who owns a boat, a fishing rod or both. This writer and editor was recently at a meeting where marina managers and boat owners were trying to figure out who dumped fecal matter into one of Marina del Rey’s basins. Keeping our marinas as clean as possible – both on the docks and in the water – definitely requires attention and effort.

Thankfully there is financial support out there to help boaters, marina managers and others

practice clean and safe boating.

BoatUS recently sent out an email urging boaters to participate in its “Boating Safety and Clean Water Grassroots Grant” program. The grant program, which is part of the BoatUS Grassroots Grant initiative, awards up to $10,000 to local groups to help them educate boats on clean and safe boating practices.

Grant applications are accepted on a rolling basis, 365 days per year, meaning applicants can apply at any time. The application process starts with a local group submitting a letter of intent, briefly summarizing the proposed project. BoatUS will ask for a full proposal if the project proposal meets the national organization’s Grassroots Grant guidelines.

FAST FACTS

Living in the Twilight Zone: Lancetfish

By Parimal M. Rohit

ALASKA—A fish described by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) as a scale-less lizard and featuring “gaping fanged jaws,”“enormous eyes” and a sailfin could help reveal some secrets of one of the least known places on the planet: the ocean’s Twilight Zone.

Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute in Rhode Island describes the Twilight Zone as the “dimly lit” mesopelagic region of the ocean, which exists between 660 and 3,300 feet (200 to 1,000 meters) below the surface. The Twilight Zone is deep and cold, an area with little to no sunshine penetration, according to an article published in Woods Hole’s Ocean US magazine.

One of the fish calling the Twilight Zone home is the lancetfish, which can grow to be 7 feet long and migrates as far north as the subarctic areas of Alaska’s Bering Sea to feed, according to NOAA. “Lancetfish are hermaphrodites, possessing both male and female sex organs simultaneously.

Very little is known about lancetfish reproduction and development,” NOAA’s informational article on lancetfish stated. “[Its] flesh is watery and gelatinous and generally not appetizing to humans. However, other large predators like sharks, tuna, and fur seals—and other lancetfish—are not so picky.”

This would imply lancetfish are cannibals - and

Letters/Online Comments

NOAA’s research would confirm such a theory.

“Lancetfish are notorious cannibals and also feed voraciously on many other fish and invertebrates,” NOAA’s informational article on the Twilight Zone fish species continued. “Many descriptions of new species of fishes, squids, and octopuses have been based on specimens collected by lancetfish and taken from their stomachs.”

NOAA added its scientists are studying the stomachs of lancetfish “to understand the mysterious midwater food web.”

Those scientists, speaking of food web, made an interesting observation about the lancetfish digestive system.

“Food in distensible lancetfish stomachs is often found in a nearly pristine state, barely digested,” NOAA’s informational article on lancetfish stated. “Scientists speculate that lancetfish may eat as much as they can whenever they find food, then digest it later when they need it.”

Feds to investigate spike in gray whale deaths on West Coast SEATTLE (LOG NEWS SERVICE)—U.S. scientists said May 31 they would investigate why an unusual number of gray whales are washing up dead on West Coast beaches.

About 70 whales have been found dead so far this year on the coasts of California, Oregon, Washington and Alaska, the most since 2000. About five more have been discovered on British Columbia beaches. That’s a very small fraction of the total number of whales believed to have died, because most simply sink and others wash up in such remote areas they’re not recorded.

NOAA Fisheries declared the die-off an “unusual mortality event,” providing additional resources to respond to the deaths and triggering the investigation.

The eastern North Pacific gray whales were removed from the endangered species list in 1994.

The population has grown significantly in the last decade and is now estimated at 27,000 – the highest since surveys began in 1967. That has raised questions about whether their population has reached the limit of what the environment can sustain.

Another theory suggests that the loss of Arctic sea ice due to global warming is a culprit.

The whales spend their summers feeding in the Arctic before migrating 10,000 miles to winter off Mexico. Though they eat all along their route, they are typically thinning by the time they return north along the West Coast each spring.

In an average year, about 35 whales wash up in the U.S. John Calambokidis – a research biologist with the Cascadia Research Collective a non-profit Washington State corporation which has conducted scientific research in the fields of marine mammal and bird biology for the past 39 years – noted as the whales search

farther afield for food, they’ve entered areas where they’re not normally seen so often, including San Francisco Bay and Puget Sound. That puts them at higher risk of being struck by ships or entangled in fishing gear.

Four of the 10 gray whales found dead near San Francisco this year were struck by ships, and a number of shipping companies have slowed their vessels in the area to avoid collisions.

Coast Guard locates owner of runaway boat ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP)—The Coast Guard says an empty boat that launched a search east of Whittier had drifted away from its owner and was not the result of anyone overboard.

The owner came forward June 3 to identify the boat.

A 10-foot (3-meter) blue and gray Zodiak was reported adrift in Passage Canal.

The boat carried fishing gear, oars and cat food, which can be used as shrimp bait.

The boat had no motor and no identifying numbers on the hull.

Fearing someone overboard, the Coast Guard launched a search with a Jayhawk helicopter from Kodiak, a response boat crew from Valdez and an auxiliary crew out of Whittier to search.

recycling bins to hands-on education about the effects of marine debris and even a distinctive airborne blimp adorned with boating safety messages,” a BoatUS statement on the available grant funding.

BoatUS Foundation’s Director of Outreach Alanna Keating said the grants are made available to help change boater behavior.

“Our goal is facilitate behavioral changes in the boating community,” Keating said in a released statement.

“We are always looking for unique ideas that reach local boaters, either through technology or in other ways that can be measured in terms of success.”

The foundation, since 1989, has awarded more than $1.3 million to organizations “that have developed creative projects to promote safe and clean boating on their local waterways.”

Visit BoatUS.org/Grants for more information on the organization’s grants and application process.

The California Clean Marina Tool Kit The California Coastal Commission, with the Division of Boating and Waterways as a partner and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) as a funder, produced “The California Clean Marina Tool Kit,” which is positioned as a “resource for environmentally sound marina management and operation.”

It’s basically a set of guidelines for marina operators to identify and implement clean marina practices.

Boaters could encourage their marina managers to do more than take a flyer on the Tool Kit (assuming your marina doesn’t already have policies in place, consistent with the spirit of the Took Kit).

The Tool Kit is broken down into four parts: recommended practices to address pollution problems; educating boaters to be partners; case studies; and, available resources. It acknowledges there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach to operating and maintaining a clean marina.

thelog.com

Marina managers who have the Tool Kit are provided with a set of suggested management strategies. They could develop and implement environmental policies, create a clean marina plan, provide staff training and prepare an emergency response.

There are at least nine areas where marinas can implement maintenance strategies: vessel cleaning and maintenance; boat sewage; oil and fuel; hazardous waste; trash and marine debris; gray water; fish waste; boat operation; and, stormwater and polluted runoff.

Environmental policies should be catered to the practices and habits of the marina’s boating community, the Tool Kit explains. Any adopted policy should also state the consequences of not adhering to the prescribed mandate. Signs to explain various environmental policies should be conspicuously placed in strategic places, such as fuel docks, pompous stations and the marina office, among other places.

Marina managers are also encouraged to maintain open communications with boaters, particularly when it comes to environmental policies and clean marina initiatives. Managers should, for example, provide suggestion boxes, be involved with tenant associations and ensure confidentiality whenever a slip owner reports on a violation.

Resources for financing clean marina management strategies are also included in the Tool Kit. The Tool Kit also makes the following recommendations for those who develop a “Clean Marina Plan,” as explained in the Coastal Commission’s provided document: • Authorize someone to be responsible for developing and implementing the Clean Marina Plan • Conduct an on-site marina assessment • Assess and implement environmental regulatory compliance • Actually develop a Clean Marina Plan • Communicate the plan to marina staff • Foster a “clean marina attitude” • Frequently evaluate and update the plan.

TAKE ACTION Marina managers might be tasked with developing or mandating certain environmental protocols, but maintaining clean waters is the responsibility of everyone. Boaters should definitely work with marina managers to address as many “green” issues as possible at their slips, bays and/or harbors. Here are a few resources boaters can take advantage of on their own, to complement any programs developed by their marina managers.

Neptune Marina is slated for changes – and one of those changes comes in the form of a set aside. A stretch of Via Marina adjacent to Neptune Marina (pictured above) will become part of the public right of way. The set aside would be used for sanitary sewer purposes.

L.A. Supervisors approve public road set-aside at Neptune Marina What Happened: The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors, on May 21, approved a recommendation to set aside portions of Via Marina – south of Panay Way – which will become a part of the public right of way. The stretch of land approved of public right away is county-owned property at Neptune Marina and would also be used for sanitary sewer purposes on Marquesas Way, just east of Via Marina in Marina del Rey. The supervisorial action was based upon a development project approved

by the same board on May 15, 2012.

Supervisors specifically approved a 126unit apartment project, Legacy Partners Marina Apartment Project, back then.

What’s On Tap: Los Angeles County acquired the easement near Neptune Marina in 1961; exercising any rights on the easement, however, required a Board of Supervisors vote.

The set aside was deemed necessary for public convenience, according to a county staff report.

“The area set aside for road purposes will become part of the public right of way to be known as Via Marina, which is

already part of the County Road System,” county staff stated in a report to the Board of Supervisors. “The recommended actions will ensure these portions of the properties can be used for the designated highway and sanitary sewer purposes. The area seat aside for road purposes contains approximately 3,142 square feet, and the area set aside for sanitary sewer purposes contains approximately 15,501 square feet.”

County staff stated the proposed improvements were also necessary to provide improved infrastructure.

“These actions will allow for the construction of and maintenance of proposed road improvements on Via Marina and proposed sewer lines on Marquesas Way, resulting in improved infrastructure in the unincorporated community of Marina del Rey,” county staff stated in a report to the Board of Supervisors.

Community Discussion Series to be held on future of San Diego Bay What Happened: The Port of San Diego announced a series of community meetings where members of the public can discuss the future of San Diego Bay. Two meetings were already held, the first on June 6 at the Port of San Diego’s Administration Building and June 12 at La Mesa Community Center.

“The Future of San Diego Bay: A Community Discussion” will feature a presentation on of the Port Master Plan Update, or PMPU.

Anyone attending the meetings can ask questions about the process and master plan draft. These community discussions are part of a 90-day public review process, which ends on July 31.

“The discussion draft of the PMPU is a major milestone for the Integrated Planning effort,” port district staff stated.

“It includes and addresses allowable uses and activities, future development and management of water and land within the port’s jurisdiction on San Diego Bay.” What’s On Tap: Port district staff will host two more community meetings: June 20 at Palomar College Ranch Bernardo Education Center and June 27 at Tijuana River National Estuarine Research Reserve.

Each meeting will start at 5:30 p.m. and continue until 7:30 p.m. Light refreshments will be provided at each meeting.

AB 1111, which would create a new position to oversee recreational activities, earned Assembly’s approval.

By Parimal M. Rohit

SACRAMENTO—The latest attempt to create an Office of Sustainable Outdoor Recreation breezed out of the State Assembly, with the lower legislative house overwhelmingly approving Assembly Bill 1111 (AB 1111), May 29. Assemblywoman Laura Friedman’s proposal now moves on to the State Senate after her colleagues in the Assembly approved the Office of Outdoor Recreation by a 72-3 vote.

Friedman’s bill would create a new position within the governor’s office to support the state’s outdoor recreation economy, which includes activities such as boating, fishing, hiking and hunting. The new office could cost between $200,000 and $500,000 to create, according to the Assembly’s most recent legislative analysis. The state’s Department of Parks and Recreation, Department of Education and Health and Human Service Agency could also face additional (but yet to be determined) costs should the Office of Sustainable Outdoor Recreation be added.

Establishing an Office of Sustainable Outdoor Recreation, according to Friedman, would be a major boost to the state’s recreational economy.

“California has the largest outdoor economy in the nation and boasts some of the most spectacular places for outdoor recreation in the world.

Our state economy depends on the more than 690,000 jobs that are supported by the outdoor recreation sector,” Friedman said, according to the Assembly’s most recent legislative analysis of AB 1111. “Yet there is not a central place in California government that is focused on bringing the expertise and experience of the nonprofit, corporate, government, and community-based leadership together to build upon and expand the impact

of California’s outdoor recreation economy.”

Public access is a significant element of the proposal; whoever is appointed to lead the new office – should it be approved and created – would be tasked with enhancing, through policy recommendations, “recreational amenities and outdoor experiences, and equitable and inclusive access.”

The new head of the Office of Sustainable Outdoor Recreation would also be required Will Gov. Gavin Newsom do what his predecessor didn’t with the proposed Office of Outdoor Recreation? AB 1111 has to make “to work towards its way out of the legislature first, of course, but the bill is on its way, what with the State Senate voting in favor of the proposal. equitable access to the outdoors,” according to a legislative analysis of AB 1111. ation sector benefits by coordinating to create an office for outdoor recreOther activities the proposed office with the outdoor recreation industry, ational activities during the previous would oversee, should it ultimately be working with the state’s economic legislative session, but the bill was created, are: development professionals, collabvetoed by then-Gov.

Outdoor recreational activities, according to AB 1111, generates more than $92 billion in annual consumer spending and creates more than 690,000 direct jobs.

“Supporters argue that creating a new Office of Sustainable Outdoor Recreation is a modest investment to support such an important part of California’s state economy,” the May 21 legislative analysis out of the Assembly stated. “The office will help increase and leverage current outdoor recre-

Dredging in Mission Bay (Before SeaWorld!), 1941

By Devon Warren-Kachelein

SAN DIEGO—Most installments of this department allow us to marvel at how much things have changed over the years. However, this photo of the dredging process in Mission Bay circa 1941 will likely amaze readers by how similar dredging practices are today.

The description of the photo on the city of San Diego’s official website states: “Mission Bay Park was originally a tidal marsh that was named ‘False Bay’ by Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo in 1542. It was developed into a recreational water park

during the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s.”

For those wondering about modern dredging practices, there are multiple sources on YouTube that have filmed it.

One example, uploaded by KPBS, takes place in Oceanside. Take a look for yourself by following the link: youtube.com/ watch?v=8MEDDSNBZlg. Mission Bay, on the other hand, is a major travel destination these days, known for SeaWorld, Mission Beach, Belmont Park and much more!

Boaters concerned CenterCal’s 2nd & PCH will greatly affect parking

By Devon Warren-Kachelein

LONG BEACH—CenterCal Properties’s 2nd & PCH project, positioned near the newly renovated Alamitos Bay Marina, appears to be making waves. Initially, 2nd & PCH had gotten off to a good start, but on May 23 at Long Beach Yacht Club, more than 300 residents showed up to a planning meeting to express their concerns.

The Grunion reported, “City officials said before the meeting they were looking for comments to help create a master plan for parking and traffic circulation in the area. Attendees at the meeting focused on the increased business traffic that will be generated by 2nd & PCHshopping center and San Pedro Fish Market.”

Boaters were especially concerned the city had allowed CenterCal to build the shopping center without enough parking. The area near 2nd & PCH can be highly congested along Pacific Coast Highway and Marina Drive. With San Pedro Market Place also opening sometime in the future, residents are worried the parking issues will increase.

This is not the first time the developer has faced trouble from the community – in Long Beach and elsewhere.

Citizen’s feathers were ruffled when CenterCal began to remove palm trees that home the protected great blue heron along Marina Drive.

The Log’s Parimal M. Rohit reported on the issue writing, “A group’s challenge to Long Beach’s plan to relocate palm trees near Alamitos Bay Marina wasn’t successful, as the California Coastal Commission, on May 9, endorsed a recommendation to allow the city’s coastal redevelopment project to move forward.”

Initially, CenterCal had removed 22 palm trees without a permit.

“Thirty of 193 trees in the area needed to be relocated for safety and public access, but will remain somewhere on site. There were 22 trees removed but those would be replaced.

The city would also add 23 canopy trees. In all there will be 238 total trees once the project is complete,” Rohit continued.

CenterCal has also been in heated litigation with the city of Redondo Beach for several years over a waterfront development, which local citizens voted to overturn. In another recent blow to the city, CenterCal decided to press charges against the city for the recent BeachLife Festival. Because the lawsuit over the waterfront is still ongoing, CenterCal believes it has vested rights to approve or deny activities

taking place on Redondo Beach’s waterfront.

Sergio Ramirez, deputy director of Economic & Property Development, stated at the meeting in Long Beach that updates about the parking plan would be available

in a few weeks. The Log will update any information that becomes available online or in an upcoming issue.

CenterCal Properties rendering

Long Beach city staff, boaters and business owners met at a Long Beach Yacht Club to receive feedback about parking.

Long Beach residents and local boaters have claimed the city did not plan enough parking for CenterCal Properties’s waterfront plaza, 2nd & PCH. Upon completion, 2nd & PCH will host luxury retail outlets such as Free People and Cotton Blow Dry Bar.

CORONADO—The City Council of Coronado approved a professional services contract with Triton Engineering, May 7; the contract award means the city of Coronado will have an engineering firm on-call for various consulting services, specifically when it comes to projects for boat slips, docks, floats and shoreline protection.

Triton was hired to provide plan checking services submitted to City Hall for permitting and processing, particularly as they relate to boat slip, dock or float projects.

“Consulting services will include … initial review to verify that the submitted plans conform to structural design standards, layout, and geometric and material use requirements; review of revisions that are submitted to correct previously identified deficiencies; and, any other marine or waterway-related design service that requires specialized expertise,” Coronado city staff stated in a report to City Council members.

City staff added an on-call consulting contract was preferred over a

project-by-project consultation.

“Rather than utilizing an on-call consultant to provide professional services when necessary, the city could solicit proposals for consulting services on a project-by-project basis,” city staff said of an alternative plan, had council members not hired Triton. “However, such an approach could prove to be problematic for unanticipated tasks with quick deadlines, and would be less cost effective.”

Triton was one of two companies responding to Coronado’s Request for Qualifications, which was publicly issued in February.

“Two qualified proposals were received and staff determined that Triton Engineering was the firm best qualified to provide the required on-call marine consulting services,” city staff stated in a report to council members.

Coronado and Triton had been working in the same capacity since 2014, but the five-year term between the city and engineering firm expired on May 31.

Exact details of the contract terms were not mentioned on the city staff report to council members. City staff,

however, did mention the “anticipated expenditures for [Triton’s] services are proposed in the FY 2019-20 budget.”

City staff regularly relies upon engineering consultants to maintain conformance with various standards outlined in Coronado and California’s published policies, particularly “Standard Specifications for Boat Slips, Docks and Floats within the Wharfage Area, Coronado Cays Development” and “California Department of Boating and Waterways Guidelines for Marina

Berthing Facilities.”

“To ensure the city has access to this type of expertise, as-needed professional service agreements are signed with qualified firms which allow staff to negotiate individual work orders in an expeditious manner based on the scope of work required for specific projects or tasks,” city staff stated.

“Retaining an as-needed consultant creates administrative efficiencies that allow the city to add capacity in a cost-effective manner.”

Year-round sales of E15 fuels are in effect, thanks to a final rule recently published by the Environmental Protection Agency. Boating interest groups have been advocating against the EPA decision for years.

EPA approves year-round sales of E15 Sales of gasoline blends with 15 percent ethanol blends will be allowed during summer months.

By Parimal M. Rohit

WASHINGTON, D.C.—A pro-farmer initiative touted by Pres. Donald J. Trump is on the books, as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) stated it would allow year-round sales of fuel blends with 15 percent ethanol – known as E15. The final regulatory ruling was issued on May 30.

Trump had advocated for yearround sales of E15 fuels, urging the EPA to eliminate the regulation prohibiting sales of the ethanol blend between May and September each year.

“EPA finalized regulatory changes to allow gasoline blended with up to 15 percent ethanol (E15) to take advantage of the 1-psi Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP) waiver that currently applies to E10 during the summer months,” the EPA’s final ruling stated.

“EPA is also finalizing regulatory changes to modify certain elements of the renewable identification number (RIN) compliance system under the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS) program, in order to bring greater transparency to the market and deter price manipulation,” the final ruling continued.

Sales of E15 fuels were prohibited during summer months due to air quality concerns.

The rule change, according to the EPA, was justified, as it would “remove barriers which unnecessarily limit the potential growth in biofuel consumption.

The recreational boating industry was adamant about not allowing yearround sales of E15, stating use of the fuel would void boat engine warranties by causing erosion.

Several maritime industry leaders

campaigned against a year-round offering of E15 fuel at a public hearing in March, reiterating marine engines aren’t designed for E15 and boaters could be subject to misfueling.

“Our industry remains steadfastly opposed to this policy given a simple set of facts: E15 destroys engines in a wide-range of everyday consumer products, contains less energy content than gasoline and other biofuel alternatives, and is terrible for the environment – all of which are reasons the summer sale ban on E15 was implemented in the first place,” National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) President Thom Dammrich said in a statement.

“Moreover, the absence of better consumer education and protection efforts in the new rule further jeopardizes the safety of boaters and others who use small gas-powered engines,” Dammrich continued. “More than 60 percent of Americans mistakenly assume that any gas sold at their local gas station is safe for all their products, and nearly nine in 10 say the government should do more to protect consumers from misfueling with E15.”

NASCAR, which celebrated the EPA decision, stated E15 fuels are available at 1,800 plus locations in 31 states.

Advocates of E15 fuel have consistently maintained the ethanol gasoline blend is good for the environment and would reverse a downward trend in farm income.

Growth Energy, an association of ethanol producers and supporters, said the EPA final ruling would help expand the E15 market.

“We estimate this one change will generate over a billion new gallons of ethanol demand in the next five years.

Over time, demand for E15 could boost the market for American grain by an additional two billion bushels,” Growth Energy CEO Emily Skor said in a released statement.

Commissioners Sloan, Yaniv, McCrae and alternate Spicer volunteered to provide feedback mainly for ocean-oriented storage for commercial fishermen.

By Devon Warren-Kachelein

SANTA BARBARA—In an effort to help Santa Barbara’s commercial fishing fleets, Santa Barbara Harbor Commission voted in favor of creating a Commercial Fishing Committee for further investigation in gear storage and other needs. Waterfront Facilities Manager Karl Treiberg gave a brief presentation on how fishermen – according to public comments, largely the younger generation of commercial fishers – are seeing an “erosion” of storage space for their gear.

City Council members had recommended the harbor commission look into the matters of storage after an appeal was presented for a storage decision at 35 N. Calle Cesar Chavez.

Though the council members decided to move forward, one of the main purposes of the new Commercial Fishing Committee would be to address plan-

ning for OM-1 zoning, which encompasses a large variety of storage beyond ocean-related uses. Treiberg stated some of the uses “don’t really meet the spirit of the zoning,” which he added that back in 1986 the mission was to provide affordable storage for commercial fishing fleets.

Historically, it was mentioned that Harbor Operations Manager Mick Kronman had sought a grant from the California Coastal Commission to obtain the storage that is in use today, which equates to around 10,000 sq. feet. Members of the community seemed especially concerned for the younger generation of fishers, some of which were said to be having a difficult time sustaining a living without available and affordable gear storage.

While Treiberg stated that the intentions in 1986 for zoning purposes had been good, he added, “We are here in 2019 and we haven’t met the goals of that zoning.”

Merit McCrea was absent from the meeting, but commissioners voted him onto the committee. The Commercial Fishing Committee will comprise of McCrae, Shoham Yaniv and Jim Sloan.

Commissioner Chair Bill Spicer will serve as an alternative in the case that McCrae cannot serve on the

City staff is concerned fishermen storage is withering and becoming less affordable, affecting younger fishing generations’ businesses on the water. Goals of storage zoning, which was launched in 1986, has not been reached, according to Karl Treiberg.

committee.

Santa Barbara, while a major tourism destination in Southern California, is known for its vibrant fishing fleet, which also contributes to scientific research among much other important coastal policy research from implementing new innovative fishing practices and more. Commercial Fishermen of Santa Barbara (CFSB), for example, states on their website that their mission is to “provide healthy, high quality seafood to local and global markets,” “ensure the economic and

biological sustainability of fisheries,” and “maintain California’s fishing heritage.” Without an affordable area to store fishing gear, it may be difficult for up and coming fishermen to operate; the trick-down effect could also affect marine biologists or others who are reliant on the commercial fishing fleets in some way.

Redondo Beach City Council approves next steps to develop AES Power Plant land The project to revert the power plant’s acreage to wetlands/ parklands is estimated at a value of $265 million; city council approves forming a financial plan.

By Devon Warren-Kachelein

REDONDO BEACH—Redondo Beach’s

AES power plant site has been a source of frustration for the last few years.

What would the community do with it and what’s going to happen to the site in the future? However, it appears that Redondo Beach City Council has at long last signed off on that decision.

Council members, at a May 7 Redondo Beach City Council meeting, voted on the consent calendar item to establish an Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District (EIFD) to finance

construction to revert the power plant’s land into a wetlands sanctuary and parklands.

In the staff report, it stated: “The city has a unique opportunity to create a coastal park, including wetlands restoration, on a portion of 50-acre Redondo AES power plant site. Portions of the site were acquired by a private party buyer in October 2018 with the balance of the site estimated to close

by June 2019.”

Within the Resolution of Intent, outlining how the city will accomplish its goals to form an EIFD, the staff report says the purpose of the project would be to enable the improvement of the property to include: open spaces, coastal access, a wetlands remediation and park lands among other environmental benefits to the area.

Under the Fiscal Impact section of the staff report, it continues, “Based on a total new development value of approximately $265 Million, if the city contributes 100 percent of its share of property tax increment (average 15.8 cents on the dollar) within the EIFD revenues would total or $71 million over 50 years.”

After 50 years, the EIFD will be terminated and the tax revenue allocated would be returned to the city’s general fund.

Multiple news outlets have followed the saga of the power plant, but the environmental turn is an intriguing use of the once industrial land. The Log’s Parimal M. Rohit once penned a Standing Watch column discussing how Southern California’s infrastructure does not incorporate green spaces as readily as other states. New parkland in Southern California would be a welcome use of land that historically was not as considerate to the environment.

SEA Lab to shut down Sadly, the non-profit SEA Lab, an environmental organization that educated students about ocean animals and was home to more than 1,000 fish/ marine species, will be closing, according to reports by local Redondo Beach sources The Beach Reader and The Daily Breeze. SEA Lab released approximately 20,000 white sea bass back into the ocean annually. Without SEA Lab, the species could be in peril. Mayor Bill Brand told The Beach Reporter he was disappointed that SEA Lab will be closing, but hopes to find a place for them after the harbor is out of litigation with waterfront developers CenterCal and the harbor is redeveloped.

Harley Rouda, who represents portions of the Orange County coast in Washington, D.C., introduced a bill to prevent the use of laser beams to distract boaters and merchant ship operators.

Orange County representative introduces bill to protect boaters from laser interference Harley Rouda’s bipartisan proposal hopes to prevent use of laser pointer beams to distract boaters and merchant ships.

By Parimal M. Rohit

WASHINGTON, D.C.—The use of laser pointer beams are disruptive to maritime interests and harmful to human beings. An Orange County member of the House of Representatives, accordingly, hopes to keep laser pointer beams off the waterways.

Rep. Harley Rouda, D-Newport Beach, recently introduced House Resolution 2893 (HR 2893), which would prohibit anyone from striking a vessel navigating in U.S. waters with a laser pointer beam.

HR 2893 is also known as the Boater Protection from Laser Pointers Act; Rep. Bob Gibbs, R-Ohio, co-authored the bill. Gibbs is a ranking member of the Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation Subcommittee of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.

“Boating is central to the culture, economy, and security of Coastal Orange County. Unfortunately, the brave members of the United States Coast Guard face unnecessary obstacles as they protect our shores,” Rouda said in a released statement. “My common-sense bill will ensure the safe operation of all vessels in our waters by prohibiting pointing lasers at vessels operating in the waters of the United States. Interference with the safe operation of boats on the coast is unacceptable, and should be prohibited by law.”

Rouda’s office, citing a May 4, 2017, article published by The Maritime Executive, said the bill was necessary to address an “uptick” in laser beam strikes on merchant ships at Maryland’s Chesapeake Bay. Intentionally pointing a laser at and

interfering with operation of a vessel, vehicle or aircraft already carries a punishment of (up to) 10 years in prison and $2,500 fine, according to The Maritime Executive’s coverage of laser pointing at vessels.

Maryland’s legislature tried to address the use of laser pointers on boats and ships in 2018, according to The Daily Record, a publication covering business, government and legal news of the Old Line State. House Bill 125 proposed to prohibit the willful “shining, pointing or focusing the beam of a laser pointer on an individual operating a … vessel.”

The bill, which died in the legislature, also proposed imprisonment of up to three years and/or a fine no greater than $2,500 for proven violators.

Laser incidents on our waterways affect boating activities, which in turn disrupt Coast Guard exercises, ferry operations and shipping, according to a statement issued by Rouda’s office.

The Orange County coast, which borders the western edge of Rouda’s district between Seal Beach and Laguna Beach, is home to regular Coast Guard activities, such as maritime commerce, port and waterway security, protection of maritime resources and search and rescue missions.

“Using laser pointers to interfere with boats of any kind threatens the safety of those aboard and on-shore.

This bill will make such interference a crime similar to laser interference with aircraft,” Gibbs said in a released statement.

Rouda represents Newport Beach Harbor and Huntington Harbour in Washington, D.C. HR 2893 was introduced on May 22. It was immediately sent to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, and then referred to the Subcommittee on Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation.

Full text of the bill was not yet available as of press time.

SAN PEDRO—The boating public of Los Angeles Harbor will receive updates of San Pedro Bay Ports’ Clean Air Action Plan, or CAAP, at an advisory meeting in Wilmington on June 25, staff with the Port of Los Angeles announced. It is the second such meeting of the year.

The advisory meeting, which is open to the public, will be held at Banning’s Landing Community Center in Wilmington on June 25, from 10 a.m. to noon.

The most recent CAAP update was released in 2017. Stakeholders and other interested parties reviewed portions of the plan update on March 13.

Records of the meeting, which was the first of 2019, are available on the Port of Los Angeles website.

As many as four update meetings can be held each year as the port districts of Long Beach and Los Angeles deliberate the most recent CAAP proposal.

Public comment and input, according to Port of Los Angeles staff, will be

taken at the meeting and, potentially, factored into the implementation of the CAAP. Both port districts (Long Beach and Los Angeles) drafted a 2017 update to CAAP as part of a plan to create a “zero-emission future” “The CAAP 2017 Update is a comprehensive strategy for accelerating progress toward a zero-emission future while protecting and strengthening the ports’ competitive position in the global economy,” Port of Los Angeles staff said in a released statement.

“Since 2005, port-related air pollution emissions in San Pedro Bay have dropped 87 percent for diesel particulate matter, 58 percent for nitrogen oxides, and 97 percent for sulfur oxides.

Targets for reducing greenhouse gases … from port-related sources were introduced as part of the 2017 CAAP,” the Port of Los Angeles staff statement continued.

CAAP specifically calls for the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles to reduce greenhouse gases 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030. Greenhouse gas levels must be reduced 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050.

Two of the proposed elements within CAAP are the “Vessel Speed Reduction Enhancement” and “Ship Incentives Program.” The former address vessel speed reduction at the 40-nautical-mile marker, while the latter, according the most recent plan

update, aims to “collaborate with other West Coast ports on ways to enhance participation in our clean ship incentive programs.”

Another element of the proposed CAAP update is the “Clean Harbor Craft Program,” which evaluates opportunities Boaters at the Port of Los Angeles are invited to attend the Clean Air Action Plan “to reduce harmeeting, which will be held from 10 a.m. to noon on June 25 at Banning’s Landing bor-craft-related Community Center in Wilmington. emissions at the ports.”

House of Representatives introduces outdoor recreation bill aimed at improving infrastructure H. R. 1334, which was introduced by California’s 44th District Rep. Barragan in February, lays out the groundwork for renovating existing outdoor recreational facilities for boaters and others.

By Devon Warren-Kachelein

NATIONWIDE—Rep. Nanette Diaz Barragan, representing California’s 44th District comprising of Carson, Florence, North Long Beach and other South Los Angeles County cities, introduced a bill known as the Outdoor Recreation Legacy Partnership Grant Program Act, or H. R. 1334. The bill, which would likely please boaters and other outdoor enthusiasts, aims to provide grant money for infrastructure related to recreational activities in national parks, forests and public lands.

Introduced on Feb. 25, the bill has picked up traction with other boating agencies who would like to see outdoor facilities, like marinas and docks at national parks and other outdoor areas, revitalized.

Boating United, for instance, has

asked boaters and participants of outdoor hobbies to support the bill.

In response to the initial language of the bill, Boating United also hoped to add provisions concerning other areas of boating safety, including prioritization for The bill, also known as the Outdoor Legacy Partnership Grant Program Act, would dredging projects provide funding for infrastructure related to recreational activities in national parks, forests and public lands. and broadband expansion, both high on the list for safe navigation.

Seabin Project, which was created in Australia through crowd-sourcing, has partnered with 25 countries “to intercept floating debris.”

By Devon Warren-Kachelein

PORT HUENEME—Port of Hueneme is taking action to keep their waters clean.

The port, over Memorial Day weekend, installed a revolutionary new device, known as a Seabin, to collect trash in the ocean.

The Port of Hueneme announced on its official Twitter page: “The Seabin started operation this weekend at the Port – a “trash skimmer” installed in a water body and acting as a floating garbage bin skimming the surface of the water by pumping water into the device.

Keeping our waters clean and our environment green! @Seabin_project” Attached to the Twitter post was a brief video of the Seabin performing its job at the port; the contraption, which looks similar to a pool pump, appeared to be fully operational. The bin has a removable portion with a netted surface that serves to separate the trash from the water as trash is pumped into the bin. Allegedly, the netting is so fine it can even collect microbeads from liquid soap products, which in recent years

caused much controversy. Marina staff can remove the bin from the yellow pump portion of the Seabin and empty the trash just as they would a normal trashcan.

The official website states: “The V5 Seabin unit is a ‘trash skimmer’ designed to be installed in the water of marinas, yacht clubs, ports and any water body with a calm environment and suitable services available.

“The unit acts as a floating garbage bin skimming the surface of the water by pumping water into the device,” the website description continues. “The Seabin V5 can intercept: floating debris, macro and micro plastics and even micro fibres with an additional filter. By acting as a trash skimmer, the Seabin V5 is also able to clean the water from contaminated organic material (leaves, seaweed, etc…).”

Seabin Project was created as a result of a crowd-sourcing project, after two surfers from Australia grew tired of wading through so much trash in their oceans. The eco-friendly water-specific trash bins have been launched in 25 countries, which now include one of Southern California’s local ports: Port Hueneme.

Seabin Project’s mission statement is “to live in a world without the need for Seabins.” For anyone who spends time at the ocean (try even Googling ocean – there are bound to be several nega-

tive headlines about the Pacific Garage Patch and other pollution), marine litter has become one of the top problems in the world. Seabin Group aims to keep litter out of the water and cites, “marine litter should not be in the water in the first place.” If communities aim to keep the land clean, why not create a solution to keep our water bodies clean as well?

According to the website, 719 Seabins have been installed in countries all over the world. Reportedly 1,952.33 kilograms of rubbish is captured each day, with a grand total of 114,916 kilo-

grams of trash picked up by Seabins to date.

Though the official website does not go into detail about the cost of installing a Seabin there is a section on the website for marina staff to inquire about installing the Seabin. Seabin Project also accepts donations to support the organization’s mission as well as scientific research. The Seabin Project, since 2015, has used a 50 percent for-profit/50 percent non-profit model.

with copper sulfate on June 6. Warning signs were posted around the lake during the blue-green algal bloom. Lake Skinner visitors were advised to avoid drinking the water. (Swimming is not permitted at Lake Skinner.)

What Not To Do

LAKE PERRIS—A danger advisory at Lake Perris’s Moreno Beach has been removed, according to the Department of Water Resources (DWR). Swimming is now allowed at the beach, but DWR staff advised recreational visitors of the Riverside County waterway to avoid direct contact with blue-green algae.

Lake Perris was hit with an algal bloom event on May 17. The lake’s users were told not to swim, bathe, fish or participate in any other sporting activity on or in the water (other than boating).

The “danger” advisory was reduced to “caution” on June 5, according to DWR staff.

“DWR lowered the advisory level at Moreno Beach to caution after detecting a reduced amount of microcystins for a second consecutive week. All beaches at Lake Perris are open with a lakewide caution advisory,” DWR staff said in a released statement. “Advisories are based on the potential health risks from algae. Exposure to toxic blue-green algae, also known as cyanobacteria, can cause eye irritation, allergic skin rash,

mouth ulcers, vomiting, diarrhea, and cold- and flu-like symptoms.

“Pets can be especially susceptible because they tend to drink while in the water and lick their fur afterwards,” the DWR staff statement continued.

Bloom conditions are volatile and change on a moment’s notice. Wind and wave conditions can shift the bloom to new areas, or cause the bloom to collect at different regions.

“The algal bloom can accumulate into mats, scum, or form foam at the surface and along the shoreline, and

range in color from blue, green, white, or brown,” DWR staff stated.

Lake Skinner A June 4 email from the Metropolitan Water District (MWD) of Southern California to The Log confirmed a cyanobacteria bloom (blue-green algae) was detected at Lake Skinner, which is east of Murrieta and Temecula.

The blue-green algae were producing cyanotoxins, according to MWD. Plans were in place to treat the water

The state of California provides specific guidelines of what precautions to take when dealing with cyanobacteria and harmful algal blooms.

• Keep pets and livestock away from the water (no swimming or drinking) • Avoid contact with algal blooms, mats or scum • Do not allow pets to lick their fur if they were in contact with the water • Avoid jet skiing, swimming or wading in water with algal blooms, mats or scum • Do not cook or wash with untreated surface water; also avoid drinking this water • Avoid eating fish or shellfish from water with algal bloom.

Water purification techniques such as boiling, camping filters and tablets do not remove toxins, according DWR officials.

Anyone who believes they might have consumed blue-green algae toxins should immediately seek medical treatment and contact the county public health department.

New statutory mandate requires recreational vessels to have more flotation to handle heavier outboard engines.

By Parimal M. Rohit

NATIONWIDE—The U.S. Coast Guard, in its Spring 2019 newsletter, announced it is implementing a rule issued last year on requiring new recreational boats to have more flotation to support the weight of heavier outboard engines.

Newer outboard engines are heavier in order to take on more gasoline.

“The Coast Guard is implementing a statutory mandate to require new recreational boats to have more flotation, to support the weight of heavier modern gasoline outboard engines,” an article in Boating Safety Circular, a publication of the Department of Homeland Security, stated. “The new rules provide a higher level of safety.

These rules replace regulations last updated in 1984.”

Manufacturers will be tasked with making changes to new recreational boats, per the new mandate (which was approved on June 1, 2018).

“The Coast Guard estimates that,

for most manufacturers, it will cost less than $50 per boat to implement the new rule,” the Boating Safety Circular article stated.

BoatUS issued a statement on the Coast Guard’s implementation of its 2018 rule. The statement advised boaters to be aware of the implementation when re-powering older model vessels with heavier four-stroke outboard.

“Re-powering with a newer, more reliable, cleaner, fuel-sipping outboard is one way to get more life out of a good boat,” BoatUS Foundation President Chris Edmonston said. “However, after having gone through the recent re-powering of a 22-foot center-console vessel with a heavier four-stroke, and seeing first-hand the resulting loss of freeboard and performance, we want to remind owners to consider engine weight. With a potentially heavier four-stroke motor and resulting lower freeboard at the stern, swamping is a concern and your boat may handle differently than with the old engine.”

Boat dealers and repair facilities can provide information on whether you are re-powering your boat with a similarly weighted engine.

Catalina Connection Rusack Vineyards, the only island wine makers in California, may have something to do with Catalina Island’s wine culture Harbor Activity Report May 2019

CATALINA ISLAND—Over the years, Catalina Island has become associated with great wine. There are several wine-related events taking place on the island each year: How did Catalina’s reputation become associated with fine wines? Rusack Vineyards, Catalina’s first and only wine vineyards, may be responsible for catapulting Catalina into a major wine destination.

Over the years, many news sources have told the unique story of how husband and wife team Geoff Rusack and his wife Alison Wrigley Rusack used her family’s land to create a dreamy winery 22 miles off the coast of Southern California in 1995. Not only is the winery unique in being California’s only island winery, but the challenges of growing grape there – including the salty soil and costly expense of transporting the grapes – makes Rusack Vineyards special. Catalina Island’s greatness has been in part to the Wrigley’s purchase of the island and the land where the winery now stands was

According to an article by the New York Times, Santa Cruz Island once had vineyards. However, during prohibition, the winery founded by San Francisco business man Justinian Caire, was done. The Rusacks, later on, revived one of the remaining wild vines on Catalina Island, contributing to the historic legacy of California’s burgeon-

Rusack Vineyards makes a chardonnay, pinot noir and zinfandel. Patrons can purchase the wine through the Isla Wine Circle at catalinaislandvineyards. com/isla-wine-circle. Depending on the modest supply, the overhead cost can be pricey, but for those who can afford it, this is a taste of Catalina.

A Luxurious Aquatic Playground High-priced development has certainly changed the harbor’s dynamic, but there are still plenty of activities for everyone to enjoy.

By Parimal M. Rohit

MARINA DEL REY—If there were one place where the images of champagne wishes and caviar dreams play out on a yacht, it would be called Marina del Rey. The coastal enclave tucked away near the southwestern edge of Los Angeles’s Westside is certainly home to high-priced properties and expensive yachts. Marina del Rey also happens to be the largest man-made small craft harbor in the United States. The harbor is home to 4,602 slips, 22 anchorages and marinas, and an offshore sportfishing fleet. Those who set foot off of their boats and onto land will find a myriad of activities to do in and around Marina del Rey, whether it is a jazz concert at one of the local restaurants, catching some waves at Venice Beach or grabbing a flight out of nearby LAX. The Log’s first special issue of 2019

delves into the personality of Marina del Rey, where thousands of boaters call home. We’ll take a look at a little but of the harbor’s history, delve into the many dining options in the area, discuss future of waterfront development, introduce a few environmental initiatives to keep the local water clean and highlight a few upcoming events.

Boating Marina del Rey might be undergoing a major facelift on land, what with several new developments popping up almost daily (or so it seems). Yet boating is still a major attraction here – not surprisingly, since Marina del Rey is one of the largest recreational boating harbors on the West Coast.

There are nearly two-dozen anchorages and marinas in Marina del Rey, for boat owners seeking to dock at the large man-made harbor. Those who don’t have their own boat can certainly sign up for a charter or rental at one of the many companies in Marina del Rey offering such services. Some of those companies include Charter L.A. Yachts, FantaSea Yachts, Hornblower Cruises and Events, Marina del Rey Boat

Rentals, Naos Yachts and Uniq Yacht Charters, among others.

Fishing Hopping on an offshore fishing excursion out of Marina del Rey might not seem like a thing, but there is indeed a sportfishing fleet out of the county-managed coastal enclave.

Offshore catches often include halibut, yellowfin, perch, barracuda, rockfish, cod, mackerel and sea bass.

L.A. Sportfishing offers half-, three-quarter- and full-day fishing trips out of Marina del Rey. It’s not uncommon for anglers to catch barracuda, bonito, calico bass, halibut, lingcod, rockfish, sand bass or spiny lobster.

Anglers can also board a fishing charter out of Marina del Rey Sportfishing. A recently published fish report had New Del Mar returning to shore with 399 rockfish, 55 whitefish and three sculpin for 45 anglers.

On-The-Water Activities There are plenty of on-the-water activities to be enjoyed at or near Marina del Rey, such as kayaking,

standup paddleboarding, gondola rides and parasailing. Some people might enjoy taking a dinner cruise aboard a Hornblower yacht. Others might want to head out to sea and taking in some whale watching. Then there are those who enjoy a quick navigation around Marina del Rey aboard the WaterBus, which is an aquatic taxi service available for $1 per ride.

A new on-the-water activity is yogaqua, which is yoga on a standup paddleboard. Yogaqua activities take place at Mother’s Beach.

Other Activities Anyone who wants to do more than boat, fish, kayak, standup paddleboard or whale watch can certainly take in other activities in Marina del Rey. A Farmer’s Market is regularly held on the west side of the harbor, at Lot 11 (next to The Cheesecake Factory).

You can buy fresh produce, creative gifts and other items at the outdoor marketplace.

Here is a list of other activities you can enjoy by or near the water: • Take a self-guided tour of the See MARINA DEL REY page 23

An area once contemplated to be home to the L.A. Harbor eventually became a major destination for recreational boaters.

By Parimal M. Rohit

MARINA DEL REY—Records are meant to be broken, and it was only a matter of time before Marina del Rey Harbor would lose the title of world’s largest man-made harbor. The harbor and its seven basins were conceived in the 1950s and realized in the early 1960s.

Basin B welcomed the first boaters in 1962, and Marina del Rey became official in April 1965. Dubai Marina, which was completed in 2003, has since challenged Marina del Rey for world’s largest man-made harbor – but the Los Angeles County enclave, regardless of its competition in the United Arab Emirates, is still a major draw for boaters, anglers and other users of the water.

Marina del Rey’s history actually dates as far back as 1887, about 75 years before the first boat entered the harbor. Of course, in 1887, there wasn’t a harbor in the area we now know as Marina del Rey. Back then it was Playa del Rey and, later, a marshland.

Real estate speculator Moye L. Wicks hoped to convert the oceanfront land at Playa del Rey into a major commercial harbor, supporting the import and export of goods by Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway.

The vision, however, died a few years later, when Wicks’s company, Port Ballona Development Co., went bankrupt. The wharf built by Port Ballona

Development Marina del Rey has changed dramatically in recent years, what with the dramatic increase of high-end condominiums and apartments popping up all around the coastal enclave.

Thousands of new residents could soon be calling Marina del Rey home once all the development is complete.

The Log will continue to provide full coverage of Marina del Rey’s waterfront development.

We hope you enjoy this special issue and take in everything Marina del Rey has to offer.

Development was also destroyed by flooding and heavy rains. Playa del Rey’s place as the commercial port hub of Los Angeles was no more – and the land reverted to its marshland ways.

The idea of building a harbor where Marina del Rey was ultimately built suffered another major blow in 1916, when the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, according to the enclave’s historical society, “deemed the Ballona area impractical for a Marina del Rey Harbor, as seen when it welcomed the first set of boaters at Basin B in 1962. A storm surge severely damaged the harbor harbor.” But things a few months later, but the county eventually restored things in time for the official opening, which was in April 1965. took a turn in 1936, when Congress and the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors tidelands’ oil revenues came four years entrance were completed in November revisited the idea of a man-made later.

Large sea bass catch claims top prize at Halibut Derby

By Parimal M. Rohit MARINA DEL REY—The annual Marina del Rey Halibut Derby, held June 1-2 in Marina del Rey, finished with a white sea bass sitting atop the leaderboard. Angler Daniel Ahman reeled the sea bass, which weighed in at 57.8 pounds. White sea bass catches, of course, are qualified for first place finishes.

Ahman’s white sea bass catch not only put him atop the individual leaderboard, but it also earned his team a first place finish. Team finishes are ranked by total weight of eligible catches.

Sea Yah finished first in the team category, with a 57.8-pound combined catch total (the white sea bass). Ahman and Jimmy Stathis were the anglers aboard the boat.

Second place was claimed by Na, which returned to shore with 42.6 pounds, combined, of eligible catches. Anglers aboard Na were David Contreras, Christopher Cooper and Larry Felando.

Bugs, which had Steven Legere and Dylan Legere aboard, finished third, with 37.5 pounds combined.

The individual leaderboard looked like this: • 1st Place: Daniel Ahman, 57.8-pound white sea bass (20-pound test line) • 2nd Place: Larry Felando, 23.8-pound California Halibut, released (30-

pound test line) • 3rd Place: David Contreras, 18.8pound California Halibut, released (15-pound test line) • 4th Place: Ben Heydinger, 18.6pound California Halibut (15-pound test line) • 5th Place: Jonathan Day, 17.9-pound California Halibut (test line not reported).

The Marina del Rey Halibut Derby was held at Burton Chace Park and in the water. The grand prizes were: five days, four nights and one fishing day for winner and guest at La Paz with Tailhunter International Sportfishing (airfare not included); a 2.5-day trip aboard Tomahawk; and, two spots aboard an overnight trip on New Hustler for June 30.

Honey Pot Day for waste-free harbors in SoCal

By Devon Warren-Kachelein MARINA DEL REY—It’s always a good time to manage your boat’s sewage.

The Bay Foundation’s Honey Pot Day, which runs from June 1 through Sept.

30, aims to educate boaters about proper waste disposal while also offering a mobile app for free pumpout services.

Nobody wants to run into toilet waste while enjoying the water – that goes for swimmers, boaters and outdoor recreationists alike. The Bay Foundation, in partnering with San Francisco Estuary Partnership, California Division of Boating and Waterways and Sport Fish Restoration, positions Honey Pot Day as a means to educate boaters about how levels of bacteria affect the local waterways.

When boaters use the mobile app, which is currently available for download, participants receive a voucher coupon redeemable at a local mobile pumpout company.

“Our program starts and stops with the needs of the boating community to ‘boat clean.’ The various tools we’ve developed are available online, in print, at boat shows and dockside through interactions with our Dockwalker volunteers,” Victoria Gambale, The Bay Foundation’s Community Engagement Program Manager, said.

“This multifaceted approach helps us reach the [more than] 179,000 registered boaters in southern California and improves the health of our coastal waters,” she continued.

According to a statement by The Bay Foundation, dumping one toilet flush of untreated sewage can cause the same environmental impact as 10,000 homeowners flushing their own toilets. Since Honey Pot Day launched in 2009, nearly 32,000 gallons of sewage has been properly disposed (that’s the equivalent of 9.14 million flushes!).

“The Honey Pot Day Program is a valuable environmental education program with a strong incentive,” Michael Blenk, real property agent for L.A. County Department of Beaches and Harbors, stated.

“This program empowers boaters to understand and act on the significance of proper sewage disposable. This program increases stewardship and ultimately makes for a healthier harbor,” Blenk continued.

While this program is available in Marina del Rey, King Harbor in Redondo Beach, Port of Los Angeles and Port of Long Beach all provide pumpout services for Southern California’s Honey Pot Day. “Honey Pot Day is funded by the California State Parks Division of

Boating and Waterways’ Clean Vessel Act program and a federal Clean Vessel Act grant through the Sport Fish Restoration Program,” a statement by The Bay Foundation said.

Boaters can sign up for the program by visiting honeypotday.org. Those who sign up will be prompted to watch two short videos on how to operate a sewage pumpout unit, a brief publication to read and will be asked to take an online quiz.

For any additional information about the program, which is currently celebrating 11 years, email Georgia Tunioli at gtunioli@santamonicabay.

org. Learn more about The Bay Foundation, a non-profit environmental group founded in 1990, at the official website santamonicabay.org.

Honey Pot Day launched 10 years ago and since then nearly 32,000 gallons of waste have been disposed of properly. Sign up for the app and visit one of your local pumpout stations in the area.

A glance at waterside developments coming soon in Marina del Rey Marina del Rey has more than a few waterfront additions coming within the next few years, including Pier 44, new boater amenities, and more.

MARINA DEL REY—Marina del Rey has a reputation as one of the more upscale boater’s havens in Southern California – and the developments going up in the community certainly reflect that theme.

Los Angeles County owns the land, and, similar to how Orange County signed a lease agreement with private developers for Dana Point Harbor’s redevelopment back in October, the governing body here leases its parcels. We’ve indeed witnessed an increase in projects near Marina del Rey’s harbor, what with land leases expiring and becoming available.

The Log was given a private harbor tour on one of the new Quick 32 harbor patrol boats. Just in case you want to learn more about Quick 32 and its captain, Kiva Osby, visit the link at vimeo.com/336876600. Michael Tripp (planning division chief for Los Angeles County Beaches & Harbors), Nicole Mooradian (Public Information Officer for Los Angeles County Beaches & Harbors) and Kat Jacob (Communication Manager for Marina del Rey Convention & Visitors Bureau) were aboard to provide insight.

As we floated through the harbor, there were some great reminders of Marina del Rey’s boating history, such as a recently renovated Marine del Rey Hotel and the floating homes, some of which were grandfathered into policy to stay even after they were deemed unseaworthy in the 1990s. On the other hand, there were many new projects in the process of being built, blending the old with the new.

This article is just a brief rundown of what’s happening in terms of new development and what visitors can expect to see finished over the next couple of years.

The Log captured the progress of Promenade Marina del Rey, located at Pier 44, on June 4 during a guided harbor tour. The project is currently slated to finish construction during Feb. 2020.

Waterfront Projects Completed/Soon-to-be Completed Los Angeles County Beaches & Harbor provided an extensive listing of the projects in Marina del Rey’s harbor that have been updated and will be updated soon as well as boater amenities available.

Pier 44/Marina del Rey Promenade Anyone who visits Marina del Rey will not be able to ignore the construction that will eventually become Marina del Rey Promenade. Just a few of the new amenities will be dinghy docks, new boater restrooms, meeting rooms, West Marine and a brand new pumpout station. This project is estimated to be completed by February 2020.

Another project that took some years to come to fruition is the Trader Joe’s, the first of the Pier 44 retail stores, near the sea – and it’s finally open! A spacious 13,000-square-foot store with little tributes to Marina del Rey, like rowing club oars and other touches, this location will also have dinghy docks installed in the near future to cater to boaters.

Trader Joe’s is walking distance to some of Marina del Rey’s attractions, includ-

ing Burton Chace Park, and provides an affordable option for boaters who wish to dine on the water/picnic in the park.

The Boathouse Jacob said if you looked at a before and after photo of The Boathouse, it’s impressive how far the once dilapidated building has come. After being completely transformed, the new building is preparing to open to the public – possibly as soon as this summer. Near Burton Chace Park, The Boathouse is anticipated to be one of Marina del Rey’s favorite gathering spots for weddings, meetings and more. There are also park benches located near the building to enjoy picnics.

Visitor’s Center Mooradian stated she and her colleagues spent a year in a trailer while the new visitor’s center was being completed. However, now it’s finished and one of the nicest places, especially for visitors, near the harbor. With a wide selection of free guides and more (a copy of The Log can be picked up here), it’s very handy for anyone who wishes to learn more about Marina del Rey’s many events and activities. In fact, the visitor’s center is where most of the behind the scenes magic happens. Planning for music festivals and contests such as the Can The Trash! Poster Contest begins

Fisherman’s Village Since 1969, Fisherman’s Village quaint New-England-inspired seaside gem has been entertaining guests. For the last decade, it has been looking for a facelift. The process has been a little slow, however, and Tripp states that no new design paperwork has been shared since 2008. In Tripp’s view, something new could come down the pipeline anytime – it could be tomorrow or it could be a year from tomorrow. The Small Craft Harbor Commission meetings have an update section each month for those who wish to get the first dish.

In the meantime, guests can enjoy the many fun things to do from grabbing brunch at Whiskey Red’s to the free summer concert series.

Apartments & Affordability All over Southern California affordability is an issue, but Mooradian mentioned Marina del Rey’s leadership is taking affordable housing seriously.

In Mariner’s Village, for instance, 20 percent affordable housing will be offered as this classic complex is updated.

There are many apartment buildings being built and updated near the harbor, which include Neptune Marina, Esprit, Aqua, ALMI and many more.

These apartments would be perfect location for boaters who have the funds to rent these luxurious abodes.

Why do waterfront developments take so long?

Marina del Rey certainly has many new hotels, retail spots and more in the pipelines as far as developments go, but some might wonder why it takes so long to get these projects off the ground.

Tripp shared his opinion that developing land along the coast is “expensive and complicated.”

“Sometimes obtaining an EIR [Environmental Impact Report] can take 10 years,” stated Tripp. In order to develop properties correctly, with permitting and standards set out by a Local Coastal Plan, sometimes it will take a lot longer.

Tripp also stated sometimes buildings could go up quicker than normal.

He stated there was a running joke between two apartment developers who were in a race to finish before the other.

Surprisingly, the developer who began construction after the other appeared to have more progress. Tripp also said more often than not, because of the process, construction times will end up finishing after the estimated date.

PSA: Getting Around on Fourth of July in Marina del Rey Considered one of the best firework shows in SoCal, city staff recommends having a travel plan when attending the firework extravaganza.

By Devon Warren-Kachelein

MARINA DEL REY—What is the Fourth of July without a firework show? Marina del Rey has one of the best in Southern California. However, because of the traffic in the area, congestion on the waters and the high number of people who attend, guests should plan ahead to ensure the best experience. Here’s a short guide to staying safe during Marina del Rey’s firework show.

The best areas to view the show are will be at Burton Chace Park and Fisherman’s Village. The fireworks will begin promptly at 9 p.m. and last for 20 minutes.

Boaters can use the guest docks, located conveniently from the boat launch ramp. The guest docks, however, are available on a first-come-firstserved basis. Keep in mind that power and sail boaters can stay for up to 7 days within a 30-day period, so plan for the docks to be busy during the holiday. Fees are $1.15 per foot daily and boats must be a minimum of 8 feet to use the docks. Vessels over 50 feet must contact staff before mooring. Check-in and check-out times are noon. For late check-outs, an additional $10 per hour will be charged. Be sure to bring valid I.D. and your boat’s registration.

The guest docks are located at 13650 Mindanao Way near Burton Chace Park on the Main Channel.

While you can travel by car, this area experiences a lot of congestion, especially during events like the firework show, so it’s best to carpool if you are traveling by land. Some roads will be shutdown from noon until 8 p.m.

Uber/Lyft drivers will not be allowed inside a closure permitted at Lincoln Boulevard and Fiji Way; guests will

need to walk to the viewing areas.

County lots (see a map online for instructions to permitted lots) will be charging between $7-15. The Marina Towers, located at 4676 and 4640 Admiralty Way, will allow parking for $20 per vehicle.

Kat Jacob, Communications Manager for Marina del Rey Convention & Visitors Bureau, recommends taking WaterBus, which will be up and running.

The sailing and boating world lost a major presence on June 2, when Lowell North died. He was a champion sailor and veteran sailmaker.

IN MEMORIAM

Lowell North, pioneering sailmaker and champion Star sailor, dies at 89

By Bernie Wilson, AP Sports Writer

SAN DIEGO (AP/Log News Service)— Lowell North, a pioneering sailmaker who won an Olympic gold medal and four world championships in the venerable Star Class, has died. He was 89.

North suffered a stroke on June 1 and died late on June 2 at his home in Point Loma, his son, Danny, said.

“He affected many people’s lives when you think about what he’s done in sailing,” said Malin Burnham, a San Diego sailor and civic leader who teamed with North to win the 1945 Star World Championship when they were both still teenagers. “You know, in the world today, we’re talking about civility.

He was the epitome of that. I never saw him upset or arguing. He was always calm, cool and collected. He was a great listener. We don’t have to agree in this world but maybe we can learn something if we just listen. Lowell was that kind of person. He was special.”

Nicknamed “The Pope” by his peers, North began his sailmaking career at 14 when his father purchased a Star with cotton sails. The father and son team came in last in every race, motivating the younger North to re-cut the mainsail.

After winning the Star worlds as Burnham’s crew, North quipped: “It wasn’t me Malin wanted. It was my mainsail.”

He opened his first North Sails loft

on Shelter Island in 1957. With an engineering degree, North figured he could build better sails through rigorous testing and incremental improvement.

His methodical and scientific approach to sailmaking changed the industry.

He hired other champion sailors – calling them “Tigers” – to demonstrate and sell his products.

North Sails was the world’s biggest sailmaker when he sold it in 1984 and retired.

“His clear purpose, creativity and competitive spirit continue to drive North Sails today – even as the company explores territories he never could have imagined,” North Technology Group CEO Tom Whidden, a former America’s Cup sailor, said in a

statement.

North won the bronze medal in the Dragon Class in the 1964 Olympics and the gold medal in the Star Class in the 1968 Games. He won four Star world championships as a skipper and finished second five times.

He was a member of the inaugural class inducted into the National Sailing Hall of Fame in 2011, along with Ted Turner, Dennis Conner and other America’s Cup greats.

Conner was the first to use North Sails in the America’s Cup when he won it in 1980. In 2007, the 50th anniversary of North Sails, 11 of the 12 syndicates entered in the America’s Cup used sails

by North.

LifeSail in Los Angeles is one of the grantees of 11th Hour Racing’s funding program.

By Parimal M. Rohit

LOS ANGELES—An organization in Los Angeles won a grant award from 11th Hour Racing, allowing them to expand its Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) programming for sailing and boat-building, it was recently announced. LifeSail was one of seven organizations to be awards with grant funds from 11th Hour Racing.

The grantees are selected based upon their respective work to mobilize the sailing and marine communities “to create systemic change for the health of our oceans.”

The new grant to LifeSail will cover the organization’s work with underserved youth in 2019 and 2020. LifeSail works with more than 350 students, ages 5 to 18, in a year-round STEM program for boat-building and sailing; the 11th Hour Racing funding will help LifeSail expand its programming.

“The organization focuses on

underserved youth, providing them with the tools and resources to develop self-confidence, learn team building and improve social skills in a recreational setting, while also encouraging hands-on, real-world explorations of STEM topics and environmental stewardship,” an 11th Hour Racing statement on grant award winners stated.

Grant award winners are selected based on projects focusing on four elements: • Solutions to reduce ocean pollution • Advancing clean technologies and best practices to reduce the environmental impact of the sailing industry • Tackling climate change through ecosystem restoration, and • Fostering ocean literacy and stewardship.

The seven grantees are developing their own projects in New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States.

“The round of grantees represents an exciting and diverse approach to addressing health issues – from practical solutions in ecosystem restoration to research on microplastic pollution generated by the marine industry to education initiatives aimed at creating

a new cohort of ocean stewards in the sailing and coastal communities,” 11th Hour Racing co-Founder Rob MacMillan said in a released statement. “With this new round of funding, we’ve now given more LifeSail was one of the seven organizations to be awarded a grant from 11th Hour than 100 grants Sailing.

O.C. Grand Jury Report (Part 2 of 2): Six steps to re-opening of Irvine Lake?

Jurors outline what Orange County and water district could do to expedite a re-opening of Irvine Lake, which has been closed since 2016.

SANTA ANA—Irvine Lake could re-open to fishing and boating again – if OC Parks and the Serrano Water District find ways to resolve differences, make certain disclosures, explore ways to make the freshwater lake economically viable and establish recreational rights. These were the suggestions made by the O.C. Grand Jury, which FishRap News covered in the first part of this two-part story (May 31 to June 13 issue).

Jurors outlined six recommendations in its May 13 report, which suggested a path for Orange County officials and water district staff to re-open Irvine Lake. The waterway is Orange County’s largest freshwater lake.

OC Parks and Serrano Water District should hire a mediator to break an impasse on water-based recreation rights, assuming both parties can’t come to terms on the issue before Sept.

30.

Both parties should solicit a mediator, the jury also recommended, if they cannot come to terms on transferring all but the water recreation rights to OC Parks – these transferred rights would specifically apply to road parcels and easements.

Serrano Water District should, according to the grand jury’s third recommendation, “provide full financial disclosure of historical operating information for water-based recreational activity.” The provided information would be from the period between 2011 and 2016, as a start, and, according to the grand jury report, should be “in sufficient detail to allow OC Parks to evaluate any recreation rights buyout offer or other specific manage-

Irvine Lake could and should be re-opened at some point between now and 2020, according to an OC Grand Jury report – it’s just a matter of whether the parties involved are willing to come to a compromised resolution.

ment proposal.”

“Absent such information,” the grand jury report continued, “[Serrano Water District] and OC Parks should negotiate and present to their respective governing bodies a management agreement to continue operating water-based recreation at Irvine Lake and share revenue, expenses and net profits.”

The question is whether both parties would be able to come to such terms by Sept. 30, which was the deadline set by jurors.

A resolution to open Irvine Lake should be reached by Dec. 31, the grand jury stated. If a resolution is not reached then the respective staffs of Serrano Water District, Irvine Ranch Water District and OC Parks, according to the grand jury, “should post on their respective websites and submit to their governing body for discussion in a public meeting their perspective as the obstacles to reopening the lake and what plan they have to resolve the issue.”

An economic feasibility, specifically outlining the minimum water level needed for expected income and other cost offsets, was also recommended to be complete by Dec. 31 – for all parties involved.

OC Parks, in the final recommenda-

tion, was asked to hold public planning meetings by March 31, 2020, to discus possible uses and activities at Irvine

Lake. The meetings should ultimately result in a multi-year Recreational Master Plan, which would include various public/private models to manage costs and liabilities associated with boating at Irvine Lake.

The grand jury determined OC Parks won’t be able to project future financial opportunities at Irvine Lake without first having access to “sufficient historical financial information” from Santiago Water District.

“Minimal effort to engage one another, a lack of creative proposals and slow responsiveness between OC Parks and the water districts have allowed negotiations to stall,” the grand jury stated in its findings. “[Serrano Water District], OC Parks and [Irvine Ranch Water District] acknowledge that to maximize recreational opportunities a more stable Irvine Lake water level is desirable.”

Orange County’s C-Bass IRVINE, California— Youth hockey coach Cody Woods, who is known within his circle as “C-Bass,” caught a 6-pound largemouth bass in late May; he caught the bass on 4-pound test and a worm while fishing at a local pond in Irvine.

Woods, who took a break from his hockey coaching activities to go fishing, said the local pier is starting to fill up with anglers (thanks to summer being just around the corner, perhaps).

The Center for Biological Diversity and Turtle Island Restoration Network has sued the Trump administration for the allowance of longlines to be used off the coast of California. Longlines are a major threat to leatherback sea turtles, which are endangered.

Environmental groups sue to protect leatherback turtles Lawsuit alleges Trump administration is violating the Endangered Species Act by permitting use of longlines.

By Parimal M. Rohit

SAN FRANCISCO—The Center for Biological Diversity and Turtle Island Restoration Network filed a joint lawsuit against the Trump administration and the National Marine Fisheries Service, claiming the issuance of two longline permits off the coast of California violated the Endangered Species Act – particularly with respect to its protected leatherback turtles.

The lawsuit was filed June 6 in a federal court for the Northern District of California. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross and the National Marine Fisheries Service were the two parties named in the complaint.

The California state government for decades prohibited longlines; the National Marine Fisheries Service joined the party in 2004, but earlier this year, issued two permits to vessels using longlines.

The Endangered Species Act lists the following as endangered: Pacific Leatherback sea turtles, olive ridley sea turtles and the North Pacific Ocean distinct population segment of loggerhead sea turtles.

The National Marine Fisheries Service designated almost 17,000 square miles of ocean off the California coast as a leatherback turtle critical habitat, according to the lawsuit.

“Fishing for swordfish and tuna with longlines is banned by both the Fisheries Service … and California law … to protect sea turtles from being incidentally caught on hooks,” the lawsuit stated. “The existing swordfish fishery off California uses mile-long drift gillnets and has a long, embattled history of taking endangered sea turtles and marine mammals. Large area closures and mitigation measures are in place for the swordfish drift gillnet fishery to reduce bycatch … of sea turtles and marine mammals.”

The federal prohibition on longlines

went into effect in 2004 to help address mitigation efforts that were falling short, according to the lawsuit.

“Longlines,” according to the lawsuit, “float horizontally in the water for up to 60 miles in length with a thousand hooks dangling in the Pacific Ocean.

“Industrial longline fishing has pushed sea turtles toward extinction, while also decimating seabirds and marine mammals,” the lawsuit continued. “This year the Fisheries Service has authorized longlines in waters off California currently protected for leatherback conservation.

Attorneys for the Center for Biological Diversity and Turtle Island Restoration Network stated the Pacific Leatherback sea turtles are in great peril and could be extinct by or before 2040.

“Pacific Leatherback sea turtles are among the most imperiled of U.S. marine animals and have experienced an alarming decades-long decline.

Scientists predict the Pacific leatherback may be effectively extinct within 20 years if current trends continue,” the lawsuit against Ross and the National Marine Fisheries Service stated.

“Leatherback sea turtles face numerous, ongoing threats in the ocean waters off the coasts of California, Oregon and Washington, including incidental capture, injury, and death by commercial fishing gear.

“The failure of the Fisheries Service to comply with environmental laws in issuing the Permit diminishes leatherback sea turtles’ slim chance to defy predictions of extinction,” the lawsuit continued.

The West Pacific leatherback population declined at a rate of six percent per year between the 1980s and 2011, according to the lawsuit.

“There are now only an estimated 562 female, nesting adults in the population, assuming the decades-long annual declining trend has continued since 2011,” the lawsuit stated. “Based on that trend, scientists predicted in 2013 that there would be about 260 adult females in 2040, i.e. a population so low that leatherbacks could not make a comeback.”

San Diego Report

By Bob Vanian

SAN DIEGO—The past week or so of offshore fishing has seen some nice changes with the arrival of good numbers of yellowfin tuna and with the expansion of the number of areas where bluefin tuna and yellowfin tuna are being caught. A very nice thing to report about the past couple of weeks of fishing is weather conditions have quieted down and water conditions had a chance to settle down and stabilize.

Bluefin tuna and yellowfin tuna are being caught over a wide area of ocean.

At the northern edge of the area of biting tuna, boats have been finding action while fishing at spots between the 224 Spot and the Corner out between 20 and 30 miles 235 to 255 degrees from Point Loma. On the southern edge of the area of biting tuna boats have been finding action while fishing the waters below the Lower 500 Bank down between 90 and 95 miles 163 degrees from Point Loma.

The bluefin tuna have ranged from 25to 200-pound with the best zone for the jumbo-sized bluefin being out between the 224 Spot and the Corner as talked about in the paragraph above. The yellowfin tuna have ranged from 15 to 50 pounds with most in the 15- to 25-pound range.

Bluefin schools have been located by finding sonar marks, meter marks, kelp

paddies and spots of breaking, breezing or puddling fish. Once located, bluefin have been biting on flylined sardines, kite fished sardines, sardines fished with torpedo sinkers and on flat fall jigs. If you have the tackle and have room on the boat to bring all the tackle, it is works out nice to carry live bait outfits with fluorocarbon leaders ranging from 30-pound test to 100-pound test for the bluefin. A 25-pound test outfit should work out well for most of the yellowfin tuna and the kelp paddie yellowtail.

The appearance of good numbers of yellowfin tuna is an early surprise to the fishing season and they have been caught at spots such as the 371 Bank, Upper Hidden Bank, 385 Spot and the area below the Lower 500 Bank. The yellowfin have been caught from blind trolling strikes, spots of breaking fish, sonar marks, meter marks, spots of breezing fish and porpoise schools.

Some sportboat counts from the offshore fishing on June 8 and 9 starts with Fisherman’s Landing. Liberty had a full-day trip with 23 anglers catching four of the 25- to 30-pound bluefin tuna and six of the 160- to 190-pound bluefin tuna.

Fisherman’s Landing also had Condor return home from a 1.5-day trip where 16 anglers caught 19 bluefin tuna, eight yellowfin tuna, one yellowtail and one bonito.

H&M Landing had Producer return home from a 1.5-day trip with 26 anglers having caught nine bluefin tuna and four yellowtails. Old Glory fished an overnight trip with 35 anglers who caught one bluefin, one yellowfin and 16 yellowtails. Constitution returned to H&M Landing from a 1.75-day trip with 14 anglers having caught 24 bluefin, five yellowfin and one yellowtail.

The fishing along the San Diego County coast has been good for a mix of bass, reds, rockfish, sculpin and whitefish along with an occasional bonus halibut or lingcod.

Recent days have also seen improved yellowtail activity at the upper end of La Jolla.

Another sign of improving surface

fishing along the coast is that calico bass are becoming more active at the Point Loma Kelp Beds. The key to finding a good calico bass bite in the kelp has been to look for kelp bed areas where you find the cleanest and warmest water. In recent days the best water conditions at the Point Loma Kelp Beds have been found at the kelp beds between Point Loma College and the Round House at Sunset Cliffs.

Productive rockfish areas off the San Diego County coast include the International Reef, the Imperial Beach Pipeline, hard bottom areas in the region of the Whistler Buoy at Point Loma, the Green Tank, The 270 to the west of Mission Bay, the upper end of La Jolla, Del Mar, Solana Beach, Leucadia, South Carlsbad and Box Canyon.

Hard bottom and structure areas have

been producing bass and sculpin with productive areas being the Imperial Beach Pipeline, the hard bottom to the north and northwest of Buoy #3 at Point Loma, the Point Loma Pipeline, the Green Tank, the upper end of La Jolla, Del Mar, the Anderson and Buccaneer Pipelines, and the artificial reefs outside of Oceanside.

The fishing at San Clemente Island has been good for a mix of yellowtail, bonito, barracuda, calico bass and an occasional white sea bass.

Catalina continues to see improved surface fishing for a mix of yellowtail, bonito, calico bass and a few white sea bass.

Productive areas are spread around much of the Island with the areas of Ben Weston, Salta Verde, Orange Rocks, the V’s and Church Rock providing some action along

TIGHT LINES — By Parimal M. Rohit

El Niño forces closure of large-mesh drift gillnet fishery WASHINGTON, D.C.—The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) issued a temporary ruling of closure off the Southern California coast. The closure, which went into effect on June 1 and remains until Aug. 31, prohibits fishing with large-mesh drift gillnet (14-inch mesh or larger).

NMFS and NOAA officials announced the closure due to El Niño conditions.

Closure of the large-mesh drift gillnet

fishery would protect the loggerhead sea turtle, which is listed on the Endangered Species Act. The closure covers the Southern California Bight.

“The most recent El Niño determination occurred on May 9, 2019, and regulations require that the closure period begin on June 1,” NMFS staff stated in the Federal Register notice of the closure.

Federal law prevents any fishing to occur with large-mesh drift gillnets

between June 1 and Aug. 31 during El Niño-forecasted years; the prohibition specifically applies to U.S. waters of the Pacific Ocean, east of the 120-degree West meridian.

Anyone seeking additional information on the temporary closure should contact Chris Manning at the NMFS West Coast Region office; he can be reached at 562-980-4198 or chris.fanning@noaa.gov.

The spring surface fishing season is gaining momentum and getting ready to roll into summer with good fun fishing going on offshore, at the local islands and along the coast. I hope you get a chance to get out fishing and enjoy the fun fishing.

Keep on fishing and I hope to see you out on the water!
