The multi-million dollar upgrade of the docks allows the harbor to expand its commercial fishing operations. By Lindsey Welling
VENTURA—A multi-million dollar upgrade to the docks at Ventura Harbor Village is wrapping up. The project began in May and renovations totaled around $4.6 million. Ventura Port District General Manager Brian Pendleton said the renovations were geared towards commercial fishing vessels. “Making sure we have state of the art slips,” Pendleton said. Port staff said the harbor is one of the largest commercial fishing ports on the West Coast. The project replaced what the Port District called “environmentally unfriendly” foam dock floats with cement docks at D, G and H, upgraded electrical pedestals and increased the availability of larger slips. The marina reduced the number of slips from 130 to 106. Marina Manager Dave Werneburg said they replaced a lot of the smaller slips with larger ones to accommodate the growing size of the seiner fishing boats. Werneburg added the marina is 100 percent occupied; most of the fishing boats, however, are home ported in
Oregon, Alaska and Washington. He said they maintain slips here for the squid season. “Nobody else has a marina that can handle 50 or 60 seiners plus lifeboats at one time,” Werneburg said. “They may have that many boats but spread around five or six different marinas.” In 2017, a total of some 27 tons of fish was offloaded at the Ventura Harbor Village Fish Pier with the majority being California market squid, according to the Port District. The value of the activity was $31 million. One seafood company with slips in the marina, Silver Bay, recently purchased the Ventura Harbor Boatyard. Werneburg said commercial fishing has a major impact on their economy. “It brings a lot of activity to the harbor and it also brings dredging money to keep the harbor open,” Werneburg said. With the renovations nearly complete, the marina is now nearly all commercial, with only a few slips belonging to businesses, such as Island Packers. The marina does offer complimentary guest docks for two hours for those looking to enjoy the shopping, dining and entertainment at the Harbor Village. Recreational boaters can also rent out slips for a daily rate depending on availability. This project comes on the heels of recent improvements at the Fish Pier, which according to port staff is an

“essential offloading facility for large and small commercial fishermen.” Ventura Port District spent $500,000 on resurfacing the Fish Pier and other improvements. Pendleton said they are planning to add a second crane to the pier for offloading fish. The crane has been ordered and will be installed in the first quarter of 2020. Port staff said it is a custom marine grade crane that will supplement the existing crane in anticipation of the Ventura Shellfish Enterprise Project, which is going through the permitting process to
create twenty 100-acre plots for growing Mediterranean mussels within the Santa Barbara Channel. The marina is surrounded by Ventura Harbor Village, which is getting its own makeover. Pendleton said a repainting project is getting underway and will take about six to eight months to complete. Nearby, construction is also underway at Portside Ventura Harbor; the new project will include apartments, townhomes, a 104-slip recreational marina, dog park and public park.

The Hammock-Boat: A New Invention?

BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA—Why choose between drifting on the water in a small boat and relaxing in a hammock? Inspired what he calls the best things in life – floating on a lake and swinging in a hammock – Jarrett Rainier of British Columbia now doesn’t have to pick between the two. He built his own hammock-boat just in time for the end of summer. He built the hammock-boat at Vancouver Hack Space, which is a large workshop where people gather to share ideas, tools, and know-how.

He said about 10 paddlefish, “ram ventilators’’ which swim open-mouthed to force water past their gills while straining out the plankton they eat, also were rescued. The International Union for Conservation of Nature considers paddlefish vulnerable to extinction. The excursion was both an assessment of the spillway’s effects on endangered and threatened species and a more general look at the spillway’s species diversity.
“We’ve probably documented about 70 species of fish in that spillway,’’ Killgore said.“Most are probably from the Mississippi River, but some are probably from Lake Pontchartrain,’’ into which the spillway empties.

Guest Editorial: Pumpout Nav directs boaters to nearest sewage pump-out location
STATEWIDE—California has more than 1,100 miles of coastline, hundreds of navigable rivers and lakes, and one of the highest levels of recreational boating in the nation. Increased outdoor activity means boating-related pollutants can enter aquatic environments, potentially impacting our aquatic environment and human health. Given the large number of recreation boats in the state, even a small amount of sewage from a fraction of boats can be harmful. The Pumpout Nav app is a new tool to help boaters keep our waters healthy and clean. “Pumpout Nav” is a free iOS and Android mobile app that shows you where the nearest sewage pumpout is located. Updated and re-released in Spring 2018, the app shows nearest pumpouts to your location on a map or list its status. How does it work? If all is well, a pumpout will appear as a green place marker and once you tap on the marker, the station will read “operational.” The app is designed to empower you, the boater, to report if there is a problem with the pumpout! It is easy and intuitive: just click on a sad face icon to report a non-operational pumpout in real-time. A series of press and report icons – “no power,” “low vacuum,” “leaking,” “broken parts,” and “no access” – offer convenient ways to flag problems. You can also enter a specific description of the problem and/or upload images. The app also provides boater information and marina tracking access. You can get pumpout cost and hours, the exact location within the marina, and access to educational information such as guidance on how and why to pumpout. Marina operators can track usage data and post updates. There are over 200 boating facilities in the app now with about 240 pumpout stations. As of this month, about 9,000 boaters have downloaded the Pumpout Nav app. The app was first developed as part of California State Parks Division of Boating and Waterways’ (DBW) Clean Vessel Act (CVA) Program, for boaters in the San Francisco Bay/Delta and Southern California regions. CVA programs in other states have since picked up the app. Boaters in Oregon and along Lake Champlain in the New York/Vermont/Quebec region can now find the location of publicly accessible pumpouts in their areas as well. Other organizations have said they are excited to get on board. “Although the App started in California, it was always meant to grow,” Keren Dill, DBW’s chief of
Boating Facilities Development and Financing Unit, said. More updates to the app are in progress; including adding two new types of disposal options geared towards smaller vessels with no holding tanks

Desalination: Poseidon still trying to plant its trident into Huntington Beach State Water Board delays Oct. 25 public hearing on proposed saltwater conversion plant; a town hall is scheduled for Oct. 15. By Parimal M. Rohit
HUNTINGTON BEACH—Southern California was hit with enough rain in 2019 for many experts and observers to declare an end to the region’s most recent drought – which could be bad news for Poseidon Water’s plans to build a desalination plant near land’s edge in Huntington Beach. It is hard to drum up a lot of noise for water security when we’re not in a drought. The current state of Southern California’s water security – or insecurity – cer-
tainly isn’t giving Poseidon any ammunition to make its case for a $1 billion desalination plant in Huntington Beach. Southern California’s droughts, of course, are cyclical, so the day will come again when Poseidon will be able to play its water insecurity card. A lack of a drought today, just the same, isn’t going to derail Poseidon’s quest to build a desalination plant in Huntington Beach. It’s been a while since The Log has covered Poseidon’s plans to build a massive desalination plant on the central Orange County coast. Here’s a quick refresher: a private water company is charging an Orange County public entity $1 billion to build a saltwater conversion plant in Huntington Beach, allowing the county to offer 50 million gallons of freshwater daily to nearly 500,000 people for the next 50 years.

FAST FACTS
Queen City, Catalina Island: The City That Never Was By Parimal M. Rohit TWO HARBORS—If there is one thing everyone knows about the Channel Islands, it’s there is only one incorporated city located on the archipelago located just off the Southern California coast. That city is Avalon, located near the east/southeast corner of Catalina Island. But an area closer to Catalina’s West End could have been where the archipelago’s sole municipality could have been located. Imagine making a trip to Queen City (instead of Avalon). Queen City is what could have been if plans to develop a 40-acre stretch of Catalina’s West End were realized. The planned community at Catalina’s Wilson Harbor was proposed, in 1863, to be the island’s metropolis destination. The Civil War, ironically, is probably what prevented Queen City from ever coming online. (Avalon wouldn’t be incorporated for another 50 years.) “A site for a city was located on Wilson Harbor. Lots were staked off, and Queen City became the mining metropolis of Santa Catalina,” an entry in the book,“The Lost Mines of Santa Catalina,” stated. It wasn’t long before miners found gold on the island. Thousands upon thousands of claims were made within a year, according to “The Lost Mines of Santa Catalina.” The area where Queen City would have been established was home to a planned mining opera-
tion. The Gold Rush hit Catalina Island’s West End in 1863, which, of course, brought over a fair share of prospectors. Prospectors hoped Queen City could be developed, but no dice. The economy wasn’t doing so well at the time. “They had no money to develop their claims, nor could they induce capitalists to aid them,” another entry in “The Lost Mines of Santa Catalina” stated.“It was a famine year of Southern California – the terrible dry seasons of 1863-64. Cattle and sheep were dying by the thousands, and the cattle barons, whose wealth was in their flocks and herds, saw themselves reduced to the verge of poverty.” The Civil War didn’t help, either, with the Union Army trying to take control of Catalina’s West End to ward off the Confederacy and maintain a strategic advantage just off the California coast. “The United States government had taken possession of the island, and had placed a military force on it to prevent it from becoming a rendezvous for privateers. The relations between honest miners and the country’s defenders were somewhat strained. Each regarded the other with suspicion,” it was stated in “The Lost Mines of Santa Catalina.” The Union apparently believed the miners, who might have had sympathies with the South, had a plot to seize the island on behalf of the Confederacy. In the end, however, Queen City never happened.

freshwater would, of course, be available when nature offers the region a drought. Our most recent drought being declared officially over, however, has definitely altered Poseidon’s momentum to bring its billion-dollar Huntington Beach plant online. It’s hard to have any urgency for a drought-immune saltwater-to-freshwater conversion plant when there isn’t a drought. To rely upon this logic, just the same, to explain the most recent delays in Poseidon’s public permitting process would not be fair. There are certainly a variety of factors why California’s State Water Board has delayed an upcoming public hearing on Poseidon Water’s desalination plant proposal – and The Log knows not all of those factors. Here we are, nonetheless: an Oct. 25 public hearing on Poseidon’s draft permit for the Huntington Beach desalination plant has been postponed. Ray Hiemstra, who is Orange County Coastkeeper’s associate director, confirmed with The Log the draft permit would likely be available by the end of November. A public hearing on the draft permit would be held Dec. 6, assuming nothing changes in the next eight to 10 weeks. The Log reached out to the State Water Board’s designated representative on the Poseidon desalination project, hoping to gain more insight as to status of the project and what could be expected when the next public hearing is officially held. The Water Board’s designated representative for the Poseidon desalination proposal – Mark Smythe – confirmed the state agency is still working on a draft permit. “We are developing the draft permit and supporting documents with Regional and State Board staff. Our goal is to have draft documents out before
the end of the year for public comment,” Smythe told The Log in an email. “Our process will then include review and response to comments that may result in revisions to the draft permit and supporting documents as appropriate, and then the revised draft permit and supporting documents can go to the board to consider for adoption.” Opponents of the proposed Poseidon desalination plant in Huntington Beach have posed several questions about the project: it’s too expensive; it’s the least reliable water supply alternative; and, the plant would cause extensive damage to the ocean environment. Groups such as Orange County Coastkeeper and Surfrider Foundation have also contended cheaper and better water supply alternatives are available for Orange County to pursue. UCLA’s Luskin Center for Innovation published a report in April, stating the proposed desalination plant would be harmful to low-income ratepayers. Poseidon, meanwhile, contends its desalination operation – both the one already operational in San Diego County and the other proposed in Orange County – is one tool in the shed to be used in California’s fight against cyclical drought conditions. Gov. Gavin Newsom, for example, issued an executive order in April, directing his administration to “think differently” and “act boldly” in developing “a comprehensive strategy to build a climate-resilient water system.” A press release issued by Poseidon two days after Newsom’s executive order stated the private water company fits squarely within the governor’s directive. The fate of Poseidon’s Huntington Beach plant could well be decided on Dec. 6. There is still time, accordingly, to voice your opinion on the proposed plant.
TAKE ACTION Orange County Coastkeeper and Residents for Responsible Desalination will be holding a town hall meeting on Oct. 15; contact either organization (information below) to find out more about the meeting, including location.

and fed toxic algae blooms that closed the state’s beaches, said Joe Spraggins, executive director of the state Department of Marine Resources. Seafood and tourism businesses, from bait shops and seafood processors to restaurants and hotels, have lost $120 million to $150 million, he said. The governors of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama asked months ago for U.S. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross to declare a fisheries disaster, a designation needed to secure federal grants for those whose livelihoods were affected in the Gulf region’s vital seafood industry. Alabama canceled its oyster season. It will be months before all the figures are in and the analysis completed to tell which Louisiana fisheries qualify, said Patrick Banks, assistant secretary for fisheries in the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries. Floodwaters from the Midwest and rains elsewhere poured down the Mississippi and into the Atchafalaya River. They wound up in the Gulf of Mexico - both through the rivers and via the huge, normally brackish lake that borders New Orleans, because a major spillway was opened twice for a total of more than four months to protect New Orleans’ levees. Oysters continue among the worsthit fisheries, with brown shrimp, crab and finfish catches also down from a year ago, department figures indicate. Louisiana produced 13.3 million pounds of oysters in 2017- 54 percent of the nation’s harvest, while Mississippi contributed about 2% and Alabama about 1% of the total, according to federal figures. The take from Louisiana’s public reefs has made up less than 10 percent of Louisiana’s total for the last decade or so, Banks said. State officials said brown shrimp, crab and finfish catches are down significantly in the Mississippi and Atchafalaya river basins. Statewide brown shrimp landings are down 34% in volume and their value is down 44 % during the five-year average. Commercial blue crab landings are down 26%, with drops ranging from 14 to 84% in individual basins, according to state figures.
Cremated remains of 15 people turned into artificial reefs PENSACOLA, Fla. (AP) — Surrounded by her family on the bow of a fishing boat, Judy Manning said her final goodbyes to her husband, Brian Delf, who passed away in May after a third round of cancer. Manning held in her hands a concrete reef ball about the size of a basketball, covered in fresh flowers. After whispering a few words to her husband, she threw the ball over the bow of the boat and watched it sink to the bottom through a school of fluorescent jellyfish. The reef ball was one of 12 deployed Sept. 23 about 50 feet below the surface of the Gulf of Mexico. The reef balls contained the cremated remains of 15 different people - and a few beloved pets - whose families opted to turn their loved ones’ ashes into fresh habitat for local marine life. “Brian and I were scuba divers and very much pro-environment and loved all of our marine animals,” said Manning, who lives in Mary Esther, before the ceremony.“So I knew I was going to do this 12 to 15 years ago. When his cancer came out of remis-

sion, it was his third round, and I said, ‘You know, we really ought to talk about this.’ He wanted to be a part of the reef.” Eternal Reefs, an Atlanta-based company that gives people the option to have their loved ones’ ashes interred in giant reef balls, has deployed about 2,000 reef balls since its inception, mostly off the Atlantic Coast and in the Gulf of Mexico. It added 12 new reef balls to the Escambia East Near Shore Reef system on Sept. 23, about 2 miles off the coast of Pensacola Beach, in a ceremony attended by families of the deceased on fishing boats.
LOCAL Search for blame continues in fire aboard dive boat LOS ANGELES (Log News Service) — One of the worst disasters in modern California history has brought a search for blame as investigators decide whether a crime occurred aboard the Conception scuba diving boat that burned in September. “When you have this type of significant tragedy, it screams out for an investigation of possible involuntary manslaughter or negligent homicide,” Loyola Law School professor Laurie Levenson said. The investigation into the Sept. 2 fire aboard the dive boat has yet to shed light on what ignited the fire that killed 34 people trapped below deck in the middle of the night. The National Transportation Safety Board’s preliminary report said all six crew members were sleeping when the fire broke out. That would violate Coast Guard regulations requiring a roving night watch and could trigger charges under what’s known as the federal seaman’s manslaughter statute, which carries penalties of up to 10 years in prison per count if a captain or crew member is convicted of negligence or misconduct. Unintentional deaths in infernos ashore often lead to involuntary manslaughter charges that requires showing someone

acted with gross negligence, meaning they didn’t use caution and took risks a reasonable person would not have taken under the same circumstances. However, the little-used boating manslaughter law only requires showing the simple negligence that’s required in injury lawsuits, meaning someone should have recognized the risk and acted differently. While defense attorneys might try to blame insufficient government regulations or shoddy inspections, it wouldn’t necessarily absolve the captain or crew, said Carolyn Ramsey, a law professor at the University of Colorado.“The captain is responsible for keeping the boat in a safe condition and providing ways of escape and rescue in the case of a fire.” The captain also could be criminally liable for crew actions that caused deaths, Ramsey said. Executives of the boat company could be charged if prosecutors can show fraud was involved. In their favor, Coast Guard inspection records show the boat passed its two most recent inspections with no safety violations. A lawsuit filed recently by a crew member, Ryan Sims, who broke his leg when he jumped from the upper deck to escape the flames, said the boat was unsafe and improperly maintained. “The boat is unseaworthy by nature because it caught fire and sank,” Sim’s attorney, Kurt Arnold, said.
Injured crewman sues boat owner for fiery disaster at sea LOS ANGELES (AP) — A crewman injured while escaping the fire that killed 34 people aboard a dive boat off Southern California sued the vessel’s owner and the company that chartered it. Ryan Sims filed the lawsuit at the end of September in Ventura County Superior Court saying the boat was unseaworthy and operated in an unsafe manner. Sims had only worked on the boat three weeks as a cook when he was awakened by loud noises before dawn Sept. 2 and found himself trying to get away from fast-moving
flames. Sims jumped from the upper deck, where he and other crew members had been sleeping, down to the main deck, breaking his leg in three places, and hurting his back and neck. He managed to get in the water, where he was eventually rescued by a fellow crew member. Attorney Kurt Arnold, who represents Sims, said it was a terrifying experience, and his client is now in a wheelchair. “The worst thing you can imagine,” Arnold said.“Jumping in the water in the dark with your leg - you can’t swim - it’s broken. Fire all around you.” The lawsuit names the owners of the boat, Truth Aquatics Inc., and Worldwide Diving Adventures that chartered the vessel for a three-day scuba trip as defendants. The lawsuit is the first known to seek damages in the Labor Day disaster that killed 33 passengers and one crew member. All the dead were sleeping in a bunk room below deck when the fire was discovered and reported at 3:14 a.m., authorities said. While investigations into the cause and possible crimes are underway, a preliminary report by the National Transportation Safety Board said all the surviving crew members were asleep on the upper deck at the time of the fire. That finding raised questions about why someone wasn’t on night watch, which is required by the Coast Guard. Arnold said his client didn’t know why there wasn’t a watchman or what the cause of the fire might be. Sims was the steward, in charge of kitchen operations, and was supposed to be sleeping at the time, he said. The lawsuit says the boat wasn’t maintained properly, didn’t have adequate safety equipment and staff was not well trained. Before the lawsuit can be considered in court, Sims will first have to win a round in federal court against a lawsuit Truth Aquatics preemptively filed under a pre-Civil War maritime law that shields boat owners from monetary damages in a disaster at sea.
All aboard the SS Catalina Also known as the Great White Steamer, SS Catalina was a steamship built in 1924 by William Wrigley to serve Catalina Island as a passenger ferry. According to Catalina Island Museum, the ferry carried more than 22 million passengers on the 26-mile passage across the San Pedro Channel to Catalina Island for 50 years, including these passengers in this 1920s photograph. During World War II, she was requisitioned for use as a troop carrier, but resumed her voyages to Avalon in 1946. Catalina made her final voyage in 1975, retiring after several years of labor disputes and financial difficulties, according Catalina Island Museum. California Historical Landmarks reported that in 1997 she ran aground in Ensenada, Mexico, where she remained until she was scrapped in 2009. Photo courtesy of the Catalina Island Museum

Bayfront property at 1601 East Bay Avenue in Newport Beach will get updated protection from harbor waters. By Parimal M. Rohit
NEWPORT BEACH—The California Coastal Commission approved an application to remove an existing 60-foot long wood bulkhead and seawall from a property in Newport Beach and replace it with a new concrete structure, Sept. 11. The applicant, Argent LLC, will be allowed to move forward with its plans to replace the old bulkhead and seawall with a 60-foot long and 22-foot tall precast concrete panel seawall. The updated structure would be in the same alignment as the seawall Argent plans to remove. Six feet of the seawall would be visible above the dredge/ mudline. The new seawall would be able to handle an elevation of +9.75 MLLW (Mean Lower Low Water). “Due to its bay-front location, the project site may be exposed to the hazards of waves, storm conditions, sea level rise or other natural hazards,” Coastal Commission staff stated in a report to commissioners. “However, the project is consistent with previous Commission approvals in the area and conditions have been imposed in order
to minimize potential adverse impacts from the development. “The proposed development is located on private lands and State tidelands located within the Coastal Commission’s retained permit jurisdiction,” Coastal Commission staff continued. Argus, as one of the conditions attached to the project approval, agreed it would not pursue future expansion of the existing shoreline protective device. Sitting on the property is a single-unit residence. “The project site is located in a residential area where the homes fronting Newport Bay are located on lots with bulkheads. Site conditions on the bayward side of the site include an existing wood bulkhead parallel to the bay and a return wall bulkhead along the side street (H Street); a pier and dock are located seaward of bulkhead facing the bay,” Coastal Commission staff stated in a report to commissioners. “The applicant proposes to demolish the old wood seawall and construct a new 60-ft. long wood bulkhead/seawall and construct new 22-ft. tall (6-ft. of seawall visible above dredge/mudline) precast concrete panel seawall with concrete coping at elevation +9.75 MLLW in same alignment as existing seawall,” the Coastal Commission staff report continued. Plans to replace the current seawall

with a new protective barrier were already approved by Newport Beach’s Harbor Resources Department, according to Coastal Commission staff. “A 42-inch tall glass panel guardrail is proposed atop the concrete coping,” Coastal Commission staff stated in a report to commissioners. “No tie-backs and deadmen or anchors are proposed for the new seawall as only 6-feet of the seawall be above the mudline the
lateral loads on the wall will be minimal and thus will not require tie-backs or anchors on the land side of the seawall.” Argus claims the current seawall is compromised and failing, according to Coastal Commission staff. The Coastal Commission met in Newport Beach for its September meetings; the meetings were held Sept. 11-13 at Newport Beach City Hall.

SAN DIEGO—Things are finally happening - a “South County” waterfront development in the planning stages for years is finally on the verge of coming to life. The early stages of construction work at Chula Vista Harbor appear to be underway, as the Port of San Diego and Chula Vista city leaders held a groundbreaking ceremony on the site of the planned development on Sept. 26. Also participating in the groundbreaking ceremony was Sun Communities, the private entity tasked with developing the $55 million recreational vehicle (RV) park. Commissioners, City Council members and representatives of Sun Communities were all on hand for the Sept. 26 groundbreaking ceremony. The groundbreaking served as the starting point for the first major projects of the Chula Vista Bayfront redevelopment: Costa Vista RV Resort and Sweetwater Bicycle Path & Promenade. Port district officials and Chula Vista’s civic leaders have been trying to update the South Bay waterfront since 2004. Plans to update the water-
front finally came into focus in recent months. Port commissioners and Chula Vista city officials approved a lease for the project in 2018; another lease for the RV park was approved on Aug. 13. Chula Vista’s Bayfront will transform the southern end of San Diego County, bringing in new amenities for boaters, residents and visitors alike. In all, about 535 acres of land adjacent to the Chula Vista waterfront would be transformed with a hotel, convention center, retail, dining, RV camping, shoreline promenade, parks, open space and walking trails. Construction on the RV resort, which is located at E Street and Bay Boulevard, will be the first component to move forward. Port district staff stated the RV park would increase public access and recreation by providing lower-cost overnight accommodations along the waterfront - something the California Coastal Commission has recently been pushing developers to include in their respective projects. “[The RV park] will ... pave the way for the anchor of the Chula Vista Bayfront Master Plan, the future resort hotel and convention center, as well as the future Sweetwater and Harbor Parks, and roadways,” Port district staff stated. Port district staff stated the RV park, a $55 million project, would open by summer 2020. The new park would,

port district staff added, feature panoramic views of the bayfront, 246 sites for RVs, restaurant and grill, day spa and salon, game room, picnic area and a welcome center. The Sept. 26 groundbreaking followed a presentation of schematic plans of the Bayfront’s park space at the Port of San Diego’s most recent Board of Port Commissioners meeting. Chula Vista’s redeveloped waterfront would include as much as 200 acres of parks, public open space,
promenades and walking trails. Two of those parks - Harbor and Sweetwater - were presented to commissioners during their Sept. 16 meeting. Both parks are located within the Bayfront project. Harbor Park would be built in two phases and cost $47.5 million; Sweetwater Park’s development budget is $8.7 million. The board’s Sept. 16 meeting was held at the Manchester Grand Hyatt in Downtown San Diego.
Blips on the Radar Latest News Updates Governor appoints Kenneth Ehrman to Boating and Waterways Commission What Happened: Gov. Gavin Newsom announced, on Sept. 20, he appointed Kenneth Ehrman to the California Boating and Waterways Commission. Ehrman, 50, previously served as an investigator with the state’s Department of Motor Vehicles; he was with the agency since 1999. The Oxnard resident was also a correctional officer with the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, between 1994 and 1999. The new DBW commissioner also holds a vice president position with the California Statewide Law Enforcement Association and earned a Masters of Science degree in Law Enforcement and Public Safety Leadership from the University of San Diego. What’s On Tap: Ehrman, who is a registered Democrat, will join the DBW Commission once the State Senate confirms his appointment. He will earn $100 per diem as compensation. His appointment fills out the commission, which was operating with four members: Virginia Madueño, Katherine Pettibone, Douglas Metz and Frank Peralta. Three of the commissioners – Pettibone, Metz and Peralta – have terms

expiring in 2020. Madueño’s term runs through 2021. The commission most recently held a workshop on Sept. 25 to discuss the Harbors and Watercraft Revolving Fund, as well as private and public loan programs. Commissioners will meet again as a full board in mid-November – it’d be the commission’s final meeting of 2019.

What Happened: US Harbors, the national recreational boating organization offering information on tides, weather and other boater amenities, is sponsoring National Harbormaster Appreciation Day on Oct. 8. The organization has been accepting nominations to recognize harbormasters across the country. Only one harbormaster from California was on the list of nominations, as of press time. (The list was not complete, however, and no deadline was given for nominations.) The sole harbormaster to be recognized from California (so far) is Scott Grindy, who operates San Francisco Marina and Small Craft Harbor.
Other harbormasters being recognized, to date, represent marinas from the Atlantic Seaboard, with most of them hailing from Maine or Massachusetts. What’s On Tap: This year’s Harbormaster Appreciation Day is the first of its kind. The day is registered with the National Day Archive and recognizes the work of harbor and port masters across the country. Harbormaster Appreciation Day will occur each year on Oct. 8.

Port of San Diego finally releases draft of illegal charter ordinance District will hold an outreach meeting on Oct. 10 to discuss changes and record feedback.
Charter Vessel Regulation Update – Outreach Meeting
SAN DIEGO—The best things come to those who wait? Turns out a group of charter boat operations in San Diego have waited quite a long time for a formal policy regulating illegal chartering activities at California’s southwestern-most harbor. A proposed policy is finally on the table for legal charter operators to review – and they will have a chance to provide the Port of San Diego with some feedback. Time will tell whether the port district and stakeholder arrived at the best possible outcome. The port district, nonetheless, is hosting a meeting on Oct. 10, giving interested parties the opportunity to review proposed changes to charter vessel regulations. Attendees will also be able to provide port district staff with feedback on the proposed ordinance. Port district staff has specifically proposed the following changes to charter vessel operations: • Issue permits • Collect license agreement fees • Appeals process for denied, revoked or suspended permits • Insurance requirements. The updated regulations, if approved, would apply to all charter vessels operations at San Diego Bay marinas and sportfishing landings. The regulations would also allow the port district “to issue permits to qualified charter vessel operators who conduct their businesses outside of a marina or sportfishing landing.” Charter vessel operators have been complaining about illegal charters for several years. The port district took a more proactive role on the issue during the past two or three years, seeking to update its codes to be as up-to-date as possible on alleged illegal charter

operations within San Diego Bay. An illegal charter task force was created in 2018 to start addressing complaints on the issue. “In recent years, members of the public have raised concerns about illegal vessel charters that do not comply with laws or the port’s permitting requirements,” port district staff stated. “Concerns have included non-compliance with Coast Guard licensing and regulations, lack of adequate insurance, unsafe conditions or operations, lack of an appropriate agreement with a marina or sportfishing landing and avoidance of rent payments to the port for conducting charter vessel operations. “Businesses that don’t follow the rules may risk public safety and may have an unfair competitive advantage over legitimate charter operations,” port district staff continued. Legal charter vessel operators in San Diego Bay are currently required to obtain a permit from the marina or sportfishing landing where they board passengers – there is no official oversight by the port district. “There are more charter vessel operators than there are available slips at the marinas and sportfishing landings on San Diego Bay,” port district staff stated.
Legal charter vessel operators added their counterparts have another competitive advantage: no payment of fees. Illegal operators do pay any fees to the port district, marinas or sportfishing landings, meaning they have more money for advertising or using other means to “steal” customers away from legal charter vessel operations. The Log last covered the issue of illegal charter operations in January, when a few interested parties expressed frustration about the port district’s slow-moving process to regulate wrongdoers. A draft policy on updated

illegal charter vessel operations was to be presented to interested parties at the beginning of 2019. The draft policy was finally made available on Sept. 27. It could still be a little while before any changes are implemented. The port district would likely refine the draft policy after the Oct. 10 outreach meeting and before presenting it to the Board of Port Commissioners. The commission would likely make a few recommendations, as well – meaning port district staff would have to update its draft policy. At some point the board would vote on the policy and set a timetable for implementation.

The Board of Port Commissioners on Sept. 4 voted to suspend an existing resolution dealing with evaluating slip increases. By Lindsey Welling
VENTURA—The Ventura Port District is looking at clarifying the systems in place for evaluating proposed slip rate increases for all marinas within Ventura Harbor. The district has long had a policy regarding how slip rents are set, but according to a report from legal counsel Andrew D. Turner, a question has recently arisen regarding how slip rates are determined, and what the district’s role is in the process. The Board of Port Commissioners voted unanimously not to adopt a proposed resolution establishing a slip rate review policy at its Sept. 4 meeting; instead the board asked staff to return in October with a new recommendation. The commissioners also voted to suspend an existing resolution dealing with evaluating slip increases. Up for a board vote was Resolution No. 3379. It would have given all marina operators the authority to increase
slip rate fees if they met the following criteria: the slip operator shall provide 45 days advance notice of the increase; the proposed rates are within the range of the Southern California marina market, the occupancy rate is not more than 10 percent below the Ventura County median; and, there have been no increases in the 12 months prior to the new rates taking effect. If any proposed slip rate increase did not meet those criteria, it would be subject to a hearing before the Board of Port Commissioners, who would give final approval or disapproval. The resolution would have formalized the conditions in a former policy, Resolution No. 3097, which had a sunset clause making it effective until the end of 2009. According to Turner’s report, since the adoption of Resolution No. 3097 in 2008, and despite the fact that it expired on its own terms on Dec. 31, 2009, district management has continued to use the process set forth in the resolution for reviewing proposed slip rate increases. According to Turner’s report, prior management misunderstood the effect of the “sunset” provision in Resolution No. 3097, instead believing the board would have to take action to reinstate Resolution No. 3038. Resolution No. 3038 technically set the current process
and required a public hearing and the Ventura Port District to review and approve any proposed slip rate changes by Ventura Harbor slip operators. Turner’s report said a survey found that Ventura Harbor was the only port in California The Ventura Port District is evaluating its policies on reviewing marina slip that had such a increases and what, if any, role the district should have in that process. policy.

SAN PEDRO—The largest cruise ships serving the West Coast could be making port within a stone’s throw of Cabrillo Way Marina, as the Port of Los Angeles will issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) before the end of the year. Port district staff announced a development opportunity for the Outer Harbor Cruise Terminal; the terminal is located next to Cabrillo Way Marina and a boat repair facility. Also in the area is AltaSea, a public-private ocean institute bringing together business, education and science. The port district has used the Outer Harbor Cruise Terminal space for concerts, special events and a temporary berth for cruise ships. The RFP seeks cruise lines, terminal operators and real estate developers to create “a new state-of-the-art cruise terminal in a prime location for expansion,” according to a statement issued by port district staff. Outer Harbor Cruise Terminal is located at Berths 46 to 50 and occupies 13 acres of the port
district. “The Outer Harbor is the ideal location to handle the largest ships presently serving the West Coast market, with deep water, room to expand to handle larger ships and the closest terminal location to the open ocean,” port district staff said in a released statement.

California’s top executive also vetoed bill to create Santa Monica Bay Restoration Commission. By Parimal M. Rohit
SACRAMENTO—September 2019 has come and passed, which means California’s governor has signed or vetoed every bill passed out of this year’s state legislative session. Gov. Gavin Newsom, in his first year as California’s executive, signed and vetoed several bills on Sept. 27, including a handful of proposals addressing algal blooms and climate change. Newsom specifically signed the following bills into law: • AB 65: Coastal Protection – climate adaption, project prioritization, natural infrastructure and local general plans • AB 834: Freshwater and Estuarine Harmful Algal Bloom Program • SB 507: San Diego Unified Port District – territory held in trust • SB 576: Coastal Resources – Climate Ready Program and coastal climate change adaptation. The governor also vetoed AB 1511, Assembly member Richard Bloom’s proposal to transfer certain administrative functions of the Santa Monica Bay Restoration Commission.
AB 65 An Assembly bill proposing to prioritize projects providing natural infrastructure and multiple public benefits under the California Drought, Water, Parks, Climate, Coastal Protection and Outdoor Access for All Act of 2018 is now law. Assembly Bill 65 specifically requires the State Coastal Conservancy to direct funding to any project making green infrastructure and climate change adaptation a priority. The bill was unanimously approved in the Assembly (77-0) and only received one opposition vote in the State Senate (39-1 tally).
AB 834 Assembly Bill 834 is now law, which means the State Water Resources Control Board must establish a “Freshwater and Estuarine Harmful Algal Bloom Program.” The program, according to the bill, would aim to protect water quality and public health from harmful algal blooms. Statewide actions would be coordinated to protect the public and aquatic ecosystems from toxins produced by harmful algal blooms. No one voted against the bill in the Assembly (71-0) or State Senate (40-0).
SB 507 Tidelands previously ungranted to the Port of San Diego will now be granted to the district, thanks to Senate Bill 507. Certain public trust lands will also be granted to the city of San Diego with Newsom’s signing of SB 507. Both the port district and San Diego City Hall will each have to submit a trust lands use plan to the State Lands Commission, under the new law. The port district, in exchange for the public lands it will be granted, would transfer $412,903 to the State Lands Commission by June 30, 2020. The monetary transaction would be based upon revenues generated from the lands granted. There are several other conditions attached to the public lands grant. SB 507 was proposed, however, to address a handful of public lands directly managed by the State Lands Commission. The bill’s author, State Sen. Toni Atkins, proposed SB 507 to bring those lands within the port district’s authority. The Assembly approved SB 507 by a 67-0 vote; State Senators voted 40-0 in favor of the bill.

Development team presents community input to local Planning Commission and preps for California Coastal Commission presentation in 2020. By Parimal M. Rohit DANA POINT—We’re fast approaching the end of the 2010s – will boaters in Dana Point witness significant progress on the local harbor’s revitalization plans before the end of the next decade? Prospects of revitalizing Dana Point Harbor have been discussed since 1997, so we are technically entering the fourth decade of planning. The revitalization’s current developer, Dana Point Harbor Partners, has been making a lot of noise lately, presenting sketches at open houses and summarizing community input at a recent Dana Point Planning Commission meeting. Feedback from boaters, residents and other interested parties were collected from a series of workshops and open houses hosted by Dana Point Harbor Partners in August and September. The feedback was presented to members of the Dana Point Planning Commission on Sept. 30. Developers received more than 1,000 unique comment cards, accord-
ing to the Dana Point Planning Commission. A representative from Dana Point Harbor Partners provided commissioners with a summary of the comments received, stating people generally favored outdoor spaces, lighter colors, outdoor seating areas, public art and view corridors. Parking was something people hoped would be addressed once the harbor is revitalized, as well.

The FAB Dock dry docking system is one of the latest technologies county officials are testing to reduce copper leaching in the harbor. By Lindsey Welling
MARINA DEL REY—The Los Angeles County Department of Beaches and Harbors is testing out two FAB Docks, an in-water dry docking system, as part of an effort to reduce copper leaching from antifouling paints on the bottom of boats. On Sept. 23, Dean Howard, the founder of the Australia-based FAB Dock and DBH hosted a demonstration for the boating community at Marina del Rey Harbor to show how the FAB Dock works. It consists of a polyurethane bottom lining and inflatable bumper. The bumper deflates in the rear to allow the boat to drive in and out, a process Howard said takes about three to four minutes. Unlike a typical ‘wet’ slip liner, it uses pumps to remove the water from between the boat and liner to keep the hull dry when docked. “This thing is designed to sit in the water and have zero maintenance,” Howard said. Some raised concerns about needing to clean the underside of the FAB Dock or the possibility that it would get so heavy with growth it would sink, adding to the plastic in our waters. Howard said stuff does eventually grow on it but it does not damage it. “The growth doesn’t hurt it, it doesn’t affect it,” Howard said. Part of the department’s research into the FAB Dock will include looking at the growth on the bottom of a FAB Dock used by the Sea Scouts for about the past year. That FAB Dock was used in a pilot study, which started in
September 2018. It was used by the Sea Scouts on a 21-foot motor boat and a second boat of similar size. According to DBH, the FAB Dock was very effective at keeping the boat hull clean. DBH Planner Jennifer Mongolo said they did not have to clean the bottom of the boat once during the pilot period. DBH has now bought two FAB Docks and is working with two boaters in Anchorage 47 to further test how they work long-term. Mongolo said DBH is looking at this as a possible copper reduction This Fab Dock is being tested out at a slip at Anchorage 47 in Marina del Rey Harbor as part of research into solutions to reducstrategy. ing copper levels in the water. “There’s no one size fits all solution for all the boats in the harbor but this might work for some boats,” Mongolo said.

The Harbor Department has ordered two new patrol boats, which will be on the water by the end of the year. By Lindsey Welling
NEWPORT BEACH—The Newport Beach Harbor Department is getting new two patrol vessels. The Harbor Department ordered two new fiberglass Whaler style boats in July and expects them to hit the water by December. Harbormaster Kurt Borsting said in addition to providing greater range, fuel capacity, and on-board storage, the procurement of these two vessels will allow that city to replace two aging catamarans, used by the department under a rental agreement with a local nonprofit organization.
The patrol boat procurement was authorized by the City Council as part of the annual budget approval process and the Harbor Department sent out a request for proposals in July. Borsting, at the August Newport Beach Harbor Commission meeting, said through the process, staff selected to purchase two Maritime Patriot 210 patrol boats manufactured by Chislett’s Boating. These vessels have a center console design and are equipped with 115 horse-powered outboard engines. Borsting said the vessel is appropriately sized and powered for the department’s patrol and code enforcement operations within the harbor. The larger engines will allow Harbor Patrol to help with towing or maneuvering other boats when needed. These boats also have “dive doors,” which allow someone in the water to easily make it onto the boat without having to go over a gunwale.

Two of these Maritime Patriot 210 patrol boats will soon hit the water at Newport Beach Harbor.
Borsting said he expects the boats to be completed and shipped sometime in mid to late November of this year, with the boats hopefully hitting the water by December. “The Harbor Department team is
looking forward to the delivery of these new vessels,” Borsting said in an email. “We appreciate the resources provided by the residents of Newport Beach that make this purchase possible.” The vessels cost about $59,000 each.

Mick Kronman, Santa Barbara’s harbor operations manager, retires Kronman retired on Sept. 20 after holding the position for almost 20 years.
SANTA BARBARA— Mick Kronman says it’s time for a new generation to manage the Santa Barbara Harbor. Kronman retired from his position as the harbor operations manager on Sept. 20. “There’s a whole new generation of very capable harbor managers who deserve a shot at this role,” Kronman said. He said he felt he contributed all that he could and just felt it was time. “There’s a time for everything in life and sometimes you just know it intuitively,” he said. Kronman joined the Santa Barbara Waterfront Department in 2000, after spending around 12 years as a commercial fisherman and working for 18 years at National Fisherman magazine. In 2014, he wrote a book on commercial fishing history. The book, published by the Santa Barbara Maritime Museum, was titled “From Hooks to Harpoons, the Story of Santa Barbara Fisheries.” In his time with the Waterfront Department, Kronman said one of the projects he was most proud to have

been involved in was the start of the Clean Marinas Program. The program was adopted in 2002 and focuses on seven elements aimed at keeping the harbor clean and environment friendly. Under the plan, the harbor area is inspected quarterly, with areas or operations needing improvement noted and addressed. “This harbor is so much more pristine,” Kronman said. “You don’t see things floating around on the surface of the harbor, you don’t see an oil sheen.” Other projects Kronman said he was proud to be a part of include reinventing the annual Harbor Festival, which draws a crowd of around 15,000, and the establishment of a “Lost at Sea
Memorial,” which features a memorial and two bronze whale tale benches at the end of the breakwaters. He praised the high bar set for and maintained by their Harbor Patrol. Another major success he said is the annual code review. Every year the department reviews the harbor code, searching for priority issues and where they need to amend policy code. “I wouldn’t characterize them as my accomplishments but projects and programs which I have been very proud to be a part of,” Kronman said. He also noted the harbor has maintained a sound budget, with revenues outpacing expenditures and extra funds in reserve. Kronman said he feels
the harbor is in a good place for whoever takes over the role. “I would expect and hope that they bring their own creativity and energy and intuition into the job,” Kronman said. “I would like to think the table of the big challenges has been set.” Santa Barbara City Administrator Paul Casey said the new waterfront director would recruit Kronman’s successor. The city, in August, began recruiting for the waterfront director position after Scott Riedman retired. City officials estimated it would take four to six months to hire a new waterfront director. As for Kronman, wellness, fitness and family top the list of his plans for retirement. “Those are the things I look forward to most,” Kronman said. “Waking up and being able to swim whenever I want.” Kronman has plans to do some college tutoring, writing, motivational speaking and is looking forward to being able to spend more time with his wife and his East Coast family, including his son who is attending college in New York City. “I don’t want to work full-time, I want to enjoy my life and want to live a very active life,” Kronman said. Kronman has lived in the Santa Barbara area since he attended college in the 1960s. He plans to remain in Goleta with his wife of 26 years.
Commissioners take issue with the lack of lower-cost amenities at proposed bluffside development. By Parimal M. Rohit
NEWPORT BEACH—Plans to build a 100-room resort hotel on a bluff overlooking Dana Point Harbor have hit a bit of development purgatory, as the California Coastal Commission put the breaks on the project, Sept. 11. Commissioners held the project back because the hotel lacked lower-cost overnight accommodations. There was also concern about public access. The proposed hotel, if it were to be approved in the future, would be built on a public bluff adjacent to Dana Point Harbor. Current specifications have the proposed hotel taking up 44,164 square feet of space – about four times the size of Cannon’s restaurant. Amenities would include a restaurant, spa, bluff-top trail and public viewpoint area. It would replace Cannon’s, an existing three-story restaurant. The restaurant was built here in 1972 and would be demolished to make way for the hotel. “The proposed project may adversely impact public access, and also due to its location on a coastal
bluff, may not be adequately designed to minimize hazards,” Coastal Commission staff stated in its report to commissioners. “The project does not address or include low cost overnight accommodations [and] it is unclear if the proposed development, including the public trail, is sufficiently setback from the bluff to be safe from the threat of bluff erosion for a minimum of 50 years. “The management and operating details of the proposed public access components, i.e. the bluff top trail, the six designated visitor parking stalls and the public viewpoint, have not been fully analyzed and, thus, may adversely impact public access.” Coastal Commission staff added the bluff where the hotel would be built, if ever approved, “has a history of stability issues.” The lack of lower-cost hotel rooms within the 100-room hotel development, however, was a major sticking point for Coastal Commission staff and commissioners. The Coastal Commission specifically cited a November 2016 report stating nearly 25,000 economy hotel rooms (along the California coast) were lost since 1989, compared to 11,247 rooms lost (also along the California coast) in five higher-cost room types combined in the same time period. The Coastal Commission staff report indicated the hotel developer

did not provide details of room rates in its Coastal Development Permit application. “The proposed project includes the construction of a new hotel which is a visitor-serving overnight accommodation use; however, the local [Coastal Development Permit] failed to indicate if the proposed hotel would provide low cost accommodations on site or if it would serve as a moderate or higher cost overnight accommodation use,” Coastal Commission staff stated. “With the loss of low cost overnight accom-
modations, the ability of all members of the public to enjoy the coast is constrained. “Consistent with the language in Section 30213 of the Coastal Act, low cost overnight accommodations must be protected, encouraged and where feasible, provided in order to maximize public access opportunities,” Coastal Commission staff continued. The 100-room hotel project earned the backing of Dana Point officials earlier this year. A date for a follow-up hearing has not yet been set.

Final spiny lobster season of 2010s is officially open Crustacean hunting for 2019-20 season began on Sept. 28.
STATEWIDE—Fall is here, which means it’s also time for spiny lobster hunting. California’s final spiny lobster season of the 2010s officially opened on Sept. 28. Divers and other lobster hunters officially took to the waters off the Southern California coast at 6 a.m. on the final Saturday of September, hoping to catch spiny lobsters. The 2019-20 spiny lobster season runs through March 18, 2020. All divers and hunters must obtain and maintain a lobster report card. Those who are 16 and older must also have a valid sportfishing license and ocean enhancement stamp in order to catch lobster south of Point Arguello. Hoop netters who are hunting for spiny lobsters at public piers and children age 16 and younger do not need a license but must still have a valid lobster report card. California’s Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) stated there was a 16

California’s 2019-20 spiny lobster season is officially underway and runs through March 18, 2020. Lobster hunters who are 16 years old or older must have a valid sportfishing license; everyone needs to keep a lobster report card with them and submit it to the state after the season, whether or not you caught any lobsters.
percent increase in reported catches of spiny lobsters during the 2018-19 season (when compared to the 2017-18 season). “You might think this is due to more fishing effort, but the average number of lobsters caught per trip increased, too,” DFW Marine Environmental Scientist Jenny Hofmeister said in a released statement. Legally caught spiny lobsters gen-
erally weigh in at one pound. A trophy sized catch would weigh five pounds. “Spiny lobster taken must measure at least 3.25 inches and are measured in a straight line on the midline of the back from the rear edge of the eye socket to the rear edge of the body shell.” DFW staff stated. “The daily bag limit is seven lobsters.” Here are some other rules to follow during spiny lobster season:
• Lobsters can be taken with hoop nets • Lobsters can be taken by hand only when skin or SCUBA diving • Fish spears, poles and other similar appliances are not allowed to assist in lobster hunting • A maximum of five hoop nets can be possessed by one person • A maximum of 10 hoop nets can be possessed aboard a vessel. Suggested bait for spiny lobster hunting include squid, Pacific mackerel, bonito, anchovies and sardines. Oily or aromatic baits are also suggested. “Because lobsters are strong and have hair-trigger responses when they sense predators, the best strategy for divers is usually to grab or pin them to the bottom of their body, rather than grabbing it by a leg or antennae which will likely tear off,” DFW staff stated. Lobster report cards must be turned in to the state by April 30, 2020, whether or not you caught any lobsters. “Failure to submit an accurate report card by the deadline will result in a non-reporting fee that is charged when you purchase a report card next season,” DFW staff stated.
A fishery once overfished is now replenished and ahead of schedule, according to Pacific Fishery Management Council. By Parimal M. Rohit
STATEWIDE—The Pacific Fishery Management Council has declared cowcod stock, once overfished as a species, to be fully replenished and rebuilt ahead of schedule. Officials previously forecast the species would not be rebuilt until 2090 - which means the cowcod stock bounced back 71 years earlier than anticipated. Cowcod was under strict conservation measure since 2000, when it was
declared as an overfished species. The groundfish species live long lives but are slow-growing. “Under the original rebuilding plan, the stock was expected to rebuild by 2090. Improved science and understanding of this stock’s population dynamics allowed the Council’s management measures to rebuild much quicker than originally anticipated,” Pacific Fishery Management Council staff said in a released statement. Pacific Fishery Management Council staff added cowcod is now the ninth West Coast groundfish to “rebuild through stringent management measures.” The yelloweye rockfish is not the only federally managed groundfish stock still under a mandated rebuilding
plan. “The cowcod assessment was developed by scientists at National Marine Fisheries Service Southwest Fisheries Science Center and was reviewed by a stock assessment review panel, which includes independent scientists, and endorsed by the council’s Scientific and Statistical Committee,” Pacific Fishery Management Council staff stated. “New harvest California’s cowcod stock has recovered from its overfished specifications and regulations status, according to the Pacific Fisheries Management Council. The federal agency predicted the species would not recover until informed by this assessment 2090 – but the species recovered 71 years ahead of schedule. are expected to be put in place beginning in 2021.” No word on why the cowcod stock the stock managed to beat it recovery required 90 years to be rebuilt or why forecast by 71 years.

San Diego Report
Fall offshore fishing is a continuation of summer’s intensity By Bob Vanian
Excel Sportfishing photo
SAN DIEGO—Fall fishing is officially underway and it has seen a continuation of the good offshore bites we experienced in the summer. There are still good numbers of jumbo-sized bluefin tuna to 300-plus pounds biting off the backside of San Clemente Island. There is good fishing for 12- to 30-pound yellowfin tuna to go with a mix of 30to 40-pound bluefin tuna, skipjack, yellowtail and a few Dorado at some of the offshore banks within 40 miles of Point Loma. The jumbo-sized bluefin that have been biting off the backside of San Clemente Island have been biting best on flying fish that are fished from a kite or a helium filled balloon. Under certain wind conditions, some Skippers have been using rigs utilizing both a kite and helium filled balloon at the same time. The jumbo-sized bluefin off the backside of San Clemente Island have been found in a lot of places, including Desperation Reef, the 86 Fathom Spot, the 81 Fathom Spot, the 57 Fathom Spot and outside of the stretch ranging from Lost Point to Seal Cove. Of all the areas mentioned, the region of the 57 Fathom Spot has been the most consistent. In addition to kite fished flying fish and helium balloon fished flying fish there has also been occasional jumbo-sized bluefin action reported on kite trolled Yummy Flyers and balloon fished mackerel. Most of the bluefin schools are being located by finding spots of breezing fish, meter marks or sonar marks. The evening hours before dark tend to be the best time of day. Private boater Doug Augustine of Double Trouble fished a recent trip to San Clemente Island and reported he was returning home to San Diego from the Desperation Reef area with an estimated 250-plus pound bluefin
tuna. Augustine caught the big bluefin while fishing with flying fish with a helium-filled balloon. The rig also produced additional action for them as he said they hooked and lost another big bluefin and had a couple of additional blowups and bites while fishing with flying fish from a helium-filled balloon. Yellowfin and bluefin bites are still hot, even though summer 2019 is in The yellowfin the rear-view mirror. How much longer will these tuna bites continue for Southern California’s offshore anglers? tuna bite has been very good at times but the past few days has seen the bite slip a bit from the near limit to limit of breezing fish, porpoise schools, levels that have sometimes been biting. sonar marks and meter marks.

Falling Into Yellowtail The final fishing trip of Summer 2019 aboard Coroloma, out of Hook’s Landing in Oxnard, was rewarding for Anibal Ruiz. Ruiz came back home with this 24-pound yellowtail, while fishing locally off the coast of Oxnard. The total fish count for Coroloma’s Sept. 21 three-quarter-day expedition was 190 whitefish, 150 rockfish, 15 perch, eight Calico bass, three sheephead, two bonito, one Mako shark, one lingcod and one sculpin for 19 anglers. Capt. Steve Earwood helmed Coroloma.
the time of his report Sparks had not been able to get the yellows to bite but was still seeing spots of yellowtail and trying to get them to cooperate. Calico bass continue to provide good surface fishing action in kelp bed areas up and down much of the San Diego County coast but the overall bite has been declining some when compared with the fishing of several weeks ago. Some of the more productive areas for calicos have been the Point Loma Kelp Beds, the kelp at the upper end of La Jolla, the kelp bed areas between Solana Beach and South Carlsbad, the Barn Kelp, Yellowtail Kelp and the kelp off Box Canyon. Capt. Joe Cacciola of Sea Star with Sea Star Sportfishing and the Oceanside Sea Center reported they have been finding good numbers of calico bass biting at kelp bed areas between South Carlsbad and Solana Beach. He said the water temperature where the calicos are biting remains warm at 72 to 73.5 degrees. Cacciola’s added most of the calicos are shortsized fish and must be released but there are usually also some keeper-sized calicos within their catch. In addition to the calico bass, the kelp bed areas are also producing some nice sized sheephead along with some whitefish, sculpin and rockfish. The fall fishing season is upon us but it still seems a lot like summer with all the good fishing going on. The amazing thing is the good fun fishing we are enjoying might just get even better if the fish group up and go on feeding frenzies like they are known to do ahead of migrating to warmer waters for the winter months. Keep on fishing and I hope to see you out on the water!

House Committee approves fish habitat conservation bill H.R. 1747 proposes to codify National Fish Habitat Partnership and direct additional funds to restoration projects. By Parimal M. Rohit WASHINGTON, D.C.—A bipartisan bill proposing to direct more money to fish habitat restoration projects made it out of the U.S. House Committee on Natural Resources, Sept. 25. Reps. Rob Wittman, R-Virginia, and Marc Veasey, D-Texas, introduced House Resolution 1747, or H.R. 1747, in March. The National Fish Habitat Conservation Through Partnership Act, as the bill is also known, specifically proposes to codify the National Fish Habitat Partnership. The partnership already provides funding for various habitat restoration projects, such as aquatic plant removal, dam removal and streambank stabilization. H.R. 1747 would expand the partnership to fund more restoration projects. The bill would also help stakeholders identify funding priorities, according to the American Sportfishing Association.
Bob Vanian’s
A greater number of fish habitats across the country could be conserved and restored through public-private partnerships if H.R. 1747 ultimately makes it out of Congress and is signed into law by the president. “This legislation will protect and restore aquatic communities around the nation through public-private partnerships to promote conservation,” Wittman said in a released statement. “It is critical that we properly maintain this sector, incorporating the needs of our recreational and commercial fishermen.” The American Sportfishing Association added the National Fish Habitat Partnership is a “voluntary, non-regulatory and locally-driven program housed within the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service” and oversees “20 individual Fish Habitat Partnerships that focus on specific regions or habitat types.” “To date, more than 800 successful conservation projects have been carried out through these partnerships, benefitting fish habitat and anglers throughout the country,” American Sportfishing Association staff said in a released statement.

TIGHT LINES — By Parimal M. Rohit
NOAA Fisheries seeks to expand critical habitat of killer whales WEST COAST—A federal proposal could extend the critical habitat of killer whales to as far south as the Central California Coast, according to a report published by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Fisheries. NOAA is seeking public input on the proposal. The endangered Southern Resident killer whales could have a habitat extending from the northwestern-most tip of Washington State to California’s Monterey Bay region. NOAA Fisheries proposed to establish the Southern Resident killer whale habitat from Cape Flattery, Washington to Point Sur, California. Point Sur is located just south of Monterey Bay and the coastal city of Santa Cruz. “The proposal would extend critical habitat for the whales along a roughly 1,000-mile swath of West Coast waters between the depths of 6.1 meters (20 feet) and 200 meters (about 650 feet),” NOAA Fisheries staff said in a published report.“The additional area covers roughly 15,626 square miles, or more than 10 million acres.” Extending the critical habitat to include the Central California Coast means the protected area would maintain
certain physical and biological features. The Southern Resident killer whale critical habitat includes the following physical and biological characteristics: • Water quality supporting growth and development of the endangered whales • Prey species to support development, growth and reproduction • Passage conditions to allow forage, migration and rest. NOAA Fisheries designated a portion of Puget Sound and the Salish Sea as a critical habitat in 2006. The whales had spent much of the year in this area, when Puget Sound was designated as a critical habitat. “Satellite tracking, acoustic monitoring and sightings data [since 2006] have confirmed that two of the three Southern Resident pods regularly range south along the West Coast as far as the Central California Coast during winter,” NOAA Fisheries staff stated in its report.“The third pod, J Pod, typically remains further north, either in inland waters or off the west side of Vancouver Island [in Canada]. “The critical habitat proposal includes six sections of coast, each with different habitat features,” NOAA Fisheries staff continued.
