Interior Department orders increase of recreational opportunities on public waters Sec. Ryan Zinke’s order also establishes a “Senior National Advisor for Recreation.”

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Regional bureaus within the U.S. Department of Interior were ordered by Sec. Ryan Zinke to submit plans calling for the expansion of recreational opportunities on federal waterways. Zinke’s secretarial order, issued on April 18, also directed bureau heads “to designate one full-time employee to oversee recreational opportunities.” Secretarial Order 3366 required certain Interior Department bureaus to create and deliver plans, within a 90-day period, to develop or expand recreational opportunities. “It is a priority of the department to increase recreational opportunities so more Americans can create inspiring and lasting memories from the gifts provided to us through our public lands and waters,” Zinke said in his order. “Recreation on public lands also directly supports businesses that facilitate access to those lands. These businesses include outfitters and guides, the lodging industry, other concessioners, and the outdoor clothing and equipment industry.” Streamlined permitting, improved access signage and additional rec-

Interior Sec. Ryan Zinke (center) named Rick May (fifth from left) as the Senior Advisor for Recreation. May and Zinke will help oversee the expansion of recreational opportunities on public waters under Secretarial Order 3366.

reational opportunities for disabled persons, veterans and the youth are among the initiatives included in Zinke’s order. The secretarial order cited statistics from an Outdoor Industry Association report, published in October 2017 and showing what the outdoor recreation economy generated last year. The report specifically stated the national outdoor recreation economy created 7.6 million jobs, generated $124.5 billion in federal, state and local tax revenues and resulted in $887 billion in consumer spending for 2017. “The revenue generated helps to

reduce the significant maintenance backlogs that exist on lands managed by the department. Enhancing recreational opportunities can only help to further defray the cost of maintaining our treasured public lands,” Zinke stated in his order. Zinke also signed Secretarial Order 3365 on April 18, directing the creation of a Senior National Advisor to the Secretary for Recreation. The position, according to Zinke, would “ensure deliberate and active coordination of recreational policy in the U.S. Department of the Interior.” Rick May, who currently serves as a

senior advisor to Zinke and is a retired U.S. Navy SEAL captain who served in Iraq, was named to the Senior National Advisor role. Alamitos Bay, Anaheim Bay, Long Beach Harbor, Los Angeles Harbor, Redondo Beach, San Diego’s Mission Bay and Santa Barbara Harbor are among the navigable waters listed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in Southern California. May would be responsible for advising Zinke on all aspects of recreational policy, developing and coordinating strategies and identifying regulatory burdens, among other responsibilities. Zinke’s April 18 order is an extension of his “Made In America” Recreation Advisory Committee initiative, which would advise the department head on public-private partnership opportunities on public lands and waters. “Examples of the wide range of recreational activities enjoyed by the public on Department lands and waters include: camping, hunting, fishing, hiking, horseback riding, boating, whitewater rafting, hang gliding, off-highway vehicle driving, mountain biking, birding and wildlife viewing, photography, climbing, winter sports, and visiting natural and cultural heritage sites,” Zinke stated in Secretarial Order 3365. “Thousands of rural and urban communities benefit from recreation on federal lands,” he continued.

Vegas hacking heist targets casino fish tank

By Devon Warren

LAS VEGAS — A highly unusual hacking attack on a Las Vegas casino fish tank is drawing comparisons to something that would be seen in an Ocean’s Eleven sequel. The ploy, where hackers broke into a casino by utilizing the thermometer in the fish aquarium, might seem like a movie plotline, yet it is a subject boat owners, and everyone who operates smart devices, should approach with care. Darktrance CEO Nicole Egan discussed a cybersecurity breach on an unnamed casino, Business Insider revealed

 NEWS BRIEFS NATION/WORLD Alaska cruise ship company offers more trips during spring season JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — A small cruise ship company is already offering trips to Alaska as part of an effort to persuade the industry to set sail for the state earlier in the year. UnCruise Adventures has launched cruises in southeast Alaska a few weeks before the first large passenger vessel is

during a Wall Street Journal CEO Council Conference in London. Hackers were able to access a “high-roller” database through the fish tank thermometer, which they then signed onto the network and sent the information to The Cloud, a wireless network. “Internet of Things” (IoT) refers to accessories such as phones, home security systems, and other equipment, including devices found on boats, and access products capable of signing on to the internet. These items, such as the fish tank thermostat, have seen increasing cyber attacks. An article by GB Gearbrain stated, “Hackers have come up with new ways to break into your data — sending attacks through our appliances, locks, blinds and anything that connects to the internet … Attacks are not going to slow down.”

About 1.2 million cruise ship visitors are expected for Juneau this year and about 1.3 million passengers are expected next

year, according to the Cruise Line Industry Association. Blanchard’s company uses boats that hold between 22 and 86 guests. The large cruise lines operate ships that can hold hundreds to thousands of people. When Blanchard started working in the tourism business years ago, Alaska cruises would typically start at the end of May and get busier by mid-June, he said. The season has since been expanded throughout May, adding to the company’s bottom line, Blanchard said. “So for those of us in the

On Board With Johnson

by J.R. Johnson

By Parimal M. Rohit NATIONWIDE — Various members of the recreational boating industry will be in Washington, D.C. for the American Boating Congress, which takes place on Capitol Hill, May 9-11. One of the policy issues expected to be fleshed out during the legislative and lobby conference is boating safety – specifically the mandatory wear of engine cut-off devices. The concept of engine cut-off devices was introduced to recreational boaters in 2011, when the U.S. Coast Guard issued a federal rulemaking on the installation and use of such switches. Coast Guard officials specifically sought public comment on a proposal to require engine cut-off switches on recreational boats of 26 feet and smaller. “The Coast Guard seeks comment on … whether casualties likely would have been pre-

vented by the use of engine cut-off switches,” the proposed rulemaking document stated. A policy flyer issued by the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) in advance of the American Boating Congress stated Coast Guard officials have not acted on its proposed rulemaking since introducing it to the public in June 2011. “The USCG has yet to take action after issuing a rulemaking,” the NMMA policy flyer stated. “The National Boating Safety Advisory Council has issued several resolutions supporting mandatory wear of engine cut-off devices. Manufacturers of new boats and engines already install engine cutoff switches as a standard safety feature – there is no additional cost to consumers.” The Log researched documents on the Federal Register website and found the 2011 proposed rulemaking. Other documents posted in the seven years since have mentioned engine cut-off devices, but there is no evidence of definitive action taken by the Coast Guard or any other federal agency on the matter. Coast Guard officials, to be fair, did state See STANDING WATCH page 7

FAST FACTS: King David and the Transpac Yacht Race By Parimal M. Rohit

LOS ANGELES — The Transpacific Yacht Race, affectionately referred to as Transpac, will kick off its 50th running in July 2019, with sailors lining up at the Port of Los Angeles in San Pedro for the biennial trek across the Pacific Ocean, en route to Honolulu. An earthquake, interestingly enough, is what allowed the 2,225-nautical-mile race to start from Los Angeles in the first place. Transpac’s first year in existence was in 1906 – the same year a massive earthquake struck San Francisco. A yachtsman and businessman intended to establish a race from San Francisco-to-Honolulu, but plans changed when a 7.9-magniture earthquake struck the Northern California city on April 18, 1906. The seed for a San Francisco-to-Honolulu

yacht race, interestingly enough, was planted in the late 1800s, when Hawaii’s King David Kalakaua invited members of the San Francisco Pacific Yacht Club to race to his kingdom in honor of his 50th birthday. Hawai’i, at the time, was still its own kingdom. (Hawai’i would become a U.S. territory in 1898, eight years before the first-ever Transpac.) Information about King David’s hopes for a San Francisco-to-Honolulu yacht race is sparse and/or limited. The Transpac website itself stated King David hoped the race would occur in time for his 50th birthday in 1897. King David, however, passed away in 1891 and celebrated his 50th birthday in 1886. The last Hawaiian king would never see the Transpac race come to life, as it eventually did about 15 years after his death. Transpac racers, nonetheless, could have been racing out of San Francisco instead of Los Angeles had King David’s intentions became reality.

Standing Watch From page 6

in the rulemaking notice they had no intention to hold a public meeting on the matter. The agency, instead, was merely seeking public input on engine cut-off switches. Public records show the agency received 24 comments on the proposal, all submitted before the comment period closed on Sept. 6, 2011. Phillip Wolfson, a member of the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, expressed his support of the proposed rule. “These engine cut-off switch installations should be made mandatory for all power operated craft, even those with enclosed helm areas,” Wolfson wrote. “It should also be made mandatory that the boat operator have the lanyard securely attached either to his PFD, wrist or other secure area while operating the boat.” Another member of the public opposed the proposed rulemaking, calling it “a fatuous concept.” “While it would appear good, just how one could manage a boat with such an idea boggles the mind. In a hard blow with the outboard doing its job how is a sailor to manage the boat tethered to such a line,” Noel Nicholls wrote in his comment. Someone who identified himself as a sheriff stated engine cut-off devices would save lives. “During my tenure as a Sheriff patrolling waterways and rivers in California I have had numerous cases where fishermen were ejected from their small boat [26 feet and smaller]. The results were always fatal. In some cases because they were not wearing a PFD or they were a victim of the elements or their own poor health. Instant submersion in cold water produced heart failure,” Gary Martin stated in his comment. “In larger high speed boats I have seen the engine shut off switch save lives, when the driver was thrown away from the helm.”

Overall the comments were split, with several people voicing their respective oppositions to the proposed rulemaking. The Log reached out to a Coast Guard official to determine whether the opposing comments were substantive enough to prevent the agency from pursuing its proposal in earnest. Our attempts for additional insight have not yet been successful. The question remains, however, whether engine cut-off devices should be the norm for smaller recreational boats. NMMA, for example, clearly appears to be in favor of making such a device available to recreational boaters. Coast Guard officials, in the proposed rulemaking, stated they reviewed a report on preventable casualties in recreational boating and determined a common cause of deaths in such situations involved the absence of someone at the helm of a vessel. “An operator may be ejected or fall overboard from the recreational vessel if, for example, the vessel hits a large wake, turns too sharply, or collides with another vessel or object in the water. When this happens, the recreational vessel will typically continue to operate, usually moving in circles, until it runs out of fuel, runs aground, collides with another object, or is disabled,” the proposed rulemaking stated. “Because a recreational vessel normally maintains the speed at which it is operating when the operator is ejected or falls overboard, or when the controls are otherwise unattended, it is often difficult for any persons ejected from the vessel or already in the water to swim out of the vessel’s path, which may lead to one or more persons being struck by the vessel, a propeller, or a lower unit of the outboard or sterndrive. “A ‘runaway’ recreational vessel may also cause damage by striking vessels or other property,” the proposed rulemaking continued.

AVALON — Islanders, despite agreeing the standards and facilities of Avalon’s sole medical center needed to be updated, were lukewarm to Measure T and ultimately decided the Transit Tax was not the path to pursue when casting their April 10 ballots. Measure T garnered 55 percent of votes against, compared to 36 percent in favor, unofficial results revealed. Catalina Island’s Transit Tax garnered much controversy with locals and visitors alike ever since it was introduced at a special City Council meeting. On January 12, Avalon City Council held the meeting where Jason Paret, CEO of Catalina Island Medical Center, proposed imposing a tax on passengers arriving or departing from Avalon via cruise ship, ferry or aircraft. Aiming to raise $1.9 million annually, the tax would include a $1 charge for each direction and was proposed in hopes of raising money to rebuild the Catalina Island Medical Center. Tourists, who undoubtedly use Catalina Island’s Medical Center during emergency situations while visiting the island, appeared to encourage the decision. One tourist told The Log, “Residents and visitors alike deserve to have first class medical facilities. This tax is a small price to pay to help achieve this.” Another visitor, Candy O’DonelBrowne, shared with The Catalina Islander, “As a tourist, I would gladly pay an extra dollar to arrive by Catalina Express and another extra dollar to leave town, just to know you have doctors from UC Irvine there to keep

me alive if I run into medical troubles when I come to visit you. Call it a medical insurance policy that costs $2! How cheap is that?” Some islanders, on the other hand, were concerned the tax would impact their financial stability and would interfere with businesses welfare. J. Noles, another such commenter to The Catalina Islander, expressed voters to consider how the tax would impact lower income individuals. Noles asked, “Can we really support a $50 billion hospital with only approximately 5,000 residents and a few visitors during summer months?” An Avalon attorney and former member of the Avalon Planning Commission, David E. Creigh, told The Catalina Islander, “Measure T is too risky for the citizens of Avalon and too hurried and ill conceived … repayment is entirely dependent upon visitor counts from cross channel carriers and cruise ships remaining at least at current levels and there is no mechanism to cover any shortfall in visitor tax revenue under Measure T except the City’s General Fund and the Avalon taxpayer.” Creigh continued, “I urge the voters to vote no on Measure T for the financial health of Avalon and its taxpayers.” At the City Council meeting in January, council members such as Cinde MacGugan-Cassidy and Mayor Anni Marshall had expressed concern over the planning and felt that more information needed to be gathered to move forward. The Catalina Islander also reported the Catalina Island Chamber of Commerce & Vistors Bureau had found more cons than pros as well, with members mostly opposing the measure. Paret was unavailable for comment at the time of press, but he did tell The Catalina Islander that some good had come from the campaign and the hospital will work towards the next steps.

Great Sailing.

The Sheriff’s office has posted warnings on boats believed to be abandoned and tracking down the owners. Maj. Tommy Tolley said the Sheriff’s office is trying to work with the boat owners, but they haven’t put forth an effort to save the boats. The Sheriff’s office, in late April, held an auction for a 1981 Catalina sailboat and a 1976 AMF Paceship. Authorities couldn’t reach the owners, making them the first to go up for auction. No one showed up to bid on the boats, so they were hauled away to the county landfill, where they will be destroyed.

Cherished, deteriorating Alaska riverboat will not be demolished FAIRBANKS, Alaska (AP) — The Fairbanks North Star Borough said it has no plans to demolish a historic but deteriorating 85-year-old Alaska riverboat that sits in the middle of Pioneer Park. The borough issued the statement in response to a Facebook post that erroneously said SS Nenana would be demolished, the Daily News-Miner reported. SS Nenana is the largest steam-powered wooden sternwheeler ever built west of the Mississippi River, the Daily NewsMiner reported. The boat was closed to tours for the coming summer season after an engineering report detailed its decay. A canal was built to house the boat at the park in 1967, making it a flagship attraction to celebrate the centennial of the U.S. purchase of Alaska.

Mayor Karl Kassel said he has no immediate plans for what to do with the 237-foot-long (72-meter-long) boat, which is a national historic landmark. “We don’t have the money to fix it in the budget,” Kassel said. “The next mayor will need to decide what to do long term.” Pioneer Park manager Donnie Hayes said efforts are underway to find a home for the extensive dioramas inside the boat depicting life along the Tanana and Yukon rivers. “There is still a lot of work to be done and decisions to be made,” Hayes said. “The dioramas and the Nenana are an important part of Pioneer Park and Fairbanks history.”

Largest water district in Silicon Valley has renewed interest in water tunnel project SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) — Silicon Valley’s largest water district is showing renewed interest in California Gov. Jerry Brown’s plan to build two massive tunnels to ferry water to the southern part of the state. The Mercury News reported the Santa Clara Valley Water District was scheduled to vote on whether to commit up to $650 million to the controversial project. Critics say the timing is suspicious and wonder if the water district struck a deal for state money for a new dam the agency wants to build. District chairman Dick Santos said he hadn’t heard of any deal and was not sure how he would vote. The governor’s legacy project had been languishing but earlier this month, California’s largest water agency approved a nearly $11 billion plan for the $17 billion project.

Plans to build a high-tech boat storage facility at Marina del Rey died when L.A. County officials didn’t grant developers a lease. The county’s Department of Beaches and Harbors said there are no plans to revisit Boat Central.

Whatever happened after Marina del Rey’s Boat Central lease option wasn’t granted? Technology exists to engineer mammoth, automated dry storage facilities for boats but won’t be green-lit in Marina del Rey any time soon. By Devon Warren

MARINA DEL REY — One could assume, with a working project name like Boat Central, plans for a dry storage facility from years past would have been a grand one – but for so many dangerous implications, as shared by boaters and industry professionals. Marina del Rey, since the turn of the century, had high hopes for a large boat storage facility. After the public had considerably strong feelings against the project, the developer working on the project, dubbed Boat Central, was not granted a lease. Boat Central originally had begun a commercial development proposal in 1991, but the operation expanded in 2003. The project eventually earned the approval of California Coastal Commission in 2015. The Small Craft Harbor Commission, after reviewing complaints and noting the cost for a storage space would be higher than a slip (hence conflicting with the intent of the project), struggled to get behind the project; only two commissioners of the five present voted to approve the lease. Industry professionals viewed Boating Central’s size as being problematic and questioned its functionality; still others worried it would block safe access to the nearest boat launch ramp. Contrasting the failed Boat Central project, other locations around the world have moved forward with similar dry storage facilities, for instance, the fully computerized dry stack boat storage facility in Fort Lauderdale at The Port Marina. Another “cutting-edge” facility is being planned for Marina Parc in Miami, which states the building “will be a fully automated, LEED Gold certified structure housing 582 boats, totaling more than 20,000 linear

feet of boat storage.” Few marinas in the United States seem to be adopting the computer-operated storage facilities, but could this be the norm at marinas 50 or 100 years from now? In a world that is seeing more and more superyachts, a company called Technomarine Group, based in North Palm Beach, Florida, specialized in design, engineering and manufacturing of custom marine systems such as dry storage facilities. Technomarine has an extensive portfolio of projects in Florida, Canada, Oman, Saudi Arabia and other countries around the world, and it not the only company catering to this type of marina engineering. In a press statement released in July of 2016, Technomarine stated, “Technomarine Automated Dry Storage handling cradle is specifically designed to protect the boat hull from scuffing, premature wear or other risks of accident. The advantage over conventional dry storage methods is that the hull will never come in contact with forks or handling equipment—or for that matter, an overzealous fork operator. Only one machine is used for handling and rinsing with high-pressure fresh water, eliminating the need to move the boat several times.” The statement also mentioned that vessels could be retrieved in less than five minutes and requests for launch or removal could be easily accessed prior to arrival by phone, email or a phone application. So what has happened to Boat Central since 2016? Is anything on tap down the line? Nicole Mooradian, Public Information Officer for L.A. County’s Department of Beaches and Harbors, says not much. “At this point, there is no new project,” Mooradian told The Log. For the time being, it appears an automated dry storage facility will stay off the radar for Marina del Rey. Will California ever see this kind of technology come to its coast? And could it be safely and effectively designed to fit the needs of boaters and marina operations? Only the future will tell.

Recreational boating group in Dana Point Harbor questions delays and urges county officials to finalize lease deal. By Devon Warren

DANA POINT — Rumors over Dana Point’s revamped harbor have been ongoing for the better half of two decades. Revitalization plans had circulated for years, with locals cynically optimistic a new lease deal is being fleshed out between Orange County and Dana Point Harbor Partners to finally begin long-awaited work on the Dana Point waterfront. Talks on the lease deal have taken longer than expected, causing a local boating organization to press for answers. The Dana Point Boaters Association (DPBA) released a newsletter on April 16 questioning why a final contract, estimating around $300 million in construction and promised at the end of 2017, has not been presented to the Orange County Board of Supervisors for review.

Lease Negotiations In October of 2017, Supervisor Lisa Bartlett, whose Fifth District encompasses Dana Point, provided guest commentary to The Orange County Register on the pending negotiations, stating the harbor’s revitalization finally turned the corner. She stated a project more than 20 years in the making would finally move forward. “As your Orange County supervisor, as well as a longtime resident and former mayor of Dana Point, I am pleased to announce the Dana Point Harbor Revitalization plan is finally underway,” Bartlett stated in her guest commentary. “Because the county does not have expertise in construction and operating marinas, commercial cores or hotel development, the public-private partnership model will result in a higher-quality project in a more expeditious timeframe.” The Board of Supervisors also approved working with Dana Point

Harbor Partners, comprised of three co-managing partners, Burnham Ward Properties, Bellwether Financial Group and R.D. Olson Development. However, several months have come and gone, yet still there is no mention of a contract going before the Board of Supervisors anytime soon.

Dana Paint Harbor renovation lease option remains stalled

Dana Point Harbor has been planning towards renovations for more than 20 years. Though a contract between developer Dana Point Harbor Partners has not gone before the OC Board of Supervisors yet, Dana Point Boaters Association distributed a newsletter on April 16 in the hopes of lighting a fire under the process.

DPBA’s April 16 newsletter questioned where the process of reviewing the proposal is going, what the timeline would be and whether it would be possible to get the proposal before the Board of Supervisors by or before May. The DPBA newsletter relayed some of the hesitation to move forward could be due to a failure to get on the same page about the financial expectations – while the county would be required to pay a certain amount, the developer may have been disappointed to find they would have to eat costs to build a $300 million harbor. “Every tweak in the terms has cascading financial implications over decades. Every little change requires complicated math and a crystal ball. Every new demand, every new assertion, send the teams retreating to their drawing tables. Every achievement is a false summit; you think you’ve made it, only to see another hill to climb,” DPBA’s April 16 newsletter article stated. “When will it end?”

Lenthall, who has been going to Dana Point Harbor since childhood and has actively had conversations with boaters and locals in the community, told The Log there is a sense of skepticism about whether the project will move forward or if it will be a repeat of the last 20 years. Part of this, he said, is due to the fact that some original plans for the harbor, including helicopter rides, five-story waterfront hotels and other garish attributions, were “offensive” to lifelong residents, but he is hopeful the city is now on the right track. After years of waiting, locals and business owners appear to be enthusiastic about the steps to move forward on a process that has taken so long to get off the ground. Lenthall stated while DPBA has been connecting with the developers closely, the status of official plans could not be legally shared with the public until the lease is finalized. At the end of the day, Lenthall hopes the new agreement will be compliant with the Dana Point Tidelands Fund 108, will allow for an affordable harbor, and, of course, would keep in line with the character of Dana Point.

Finding Common Ground?

Calls For Accountability

James Lenthall, DPBA president and Chair of the newly formed Dana Point Harbor Advisory Board, returned a call from The Log and stated (on behalf of DPBA) he hopes this is the gateway to have a “reimagination” of the harbor.

While the goals may be shared, DPBA brings attention to the accountability of both the county and the developer to clearly outline the responsibilities related to “negotiating a construction investment nearing $300 million

dollars.” The e-newsletter continued, “Our harbor is and will remain a county property, with a master tenant contracted to rebuild and operate it. Assigning liabilities – that is, who is responsible for what after the contract is signed – is perhaps more daunting than either the County or developer anticipate. It is a game of both tug-of-war and hot potato. “Naturally, both sides want to maximize their revenue opportunities, and both want to evade exorbitant and unpredictable expenses. Who pays for harbor patrol? Who is responsible for the quay walls, bridge, breakwaters, dredging? Who will be liable for unanticipated environmental factors or new regulations that affect costs,” the DPBA newsletter continued.

Public Officials: Radio Silence A small section of Dana Point’s official website is dedicated to Harbor Revitalization, with a number to contact Orange County officials. (The harbor is fully within the jurisdiction of Orange County, not the city of Dana Point.) The website is sparse, but states, “Since the first Revitalization Plan Task Force meeting nearly a decade ago, developing a vision for the Dana Point Harbor has been a collaborative effort among the numerous groups with a singular goal: improving the Dana Point Harbor to reflect our beautiful city.” A number is listed on the website to contact the county’s Harbor Department. The Log called the number on Friday, April 27 at 12:30 p.m. and a staff member named Marie took down a message stating someone would call back Monday with an update. Marie stated no one was available in the office on Friday to take a call concerning the harbor revitalization project. Several other city and county officials were contacted a week before the story’s deadline, several days before print, but so far no calls have been returned. The Log will update this story if any information becomes readily available. At this point, further commentary concerning the ongoings behind the scene would be pure speculation.

RIDA officially selected to bring waterfront hotel and convention center project online at joint meeting. By Parimal M. Rohit

CHULA VISTA — The Port of San Diego’s Board of Port Commissioners and Chula Vista City Council, in a joint meeting held in the South Bay municipality on April 24, approved a development agreement for RIDA Development Corp. to build an ambitious hotel and convention center project on the Chula Vista waterfront. The joint vote allows a massive waterfront redevelopment project, which has been in the works for nearly two decades, to move forward. Port district commissioners and Chula Vista council members awarded RIDA the development contract after nearly 15 years of planning and public deliberations. The plot to redevelop the area surrounding Chula Vista Harbor began in 2002 and has been fleshed out ever since through a series of behindthe-scenes negotiations, commission and city council meetings, and public workshops. Commission Chair Rafael Castellanos called the Chula Vista Bayfront project a “prototype,” establishing a blueprint for the planning

steps required to realize a successful development within the Port of San Diego’s jurisdiction. “This project … is a prototype planning effort for how to get big projects planned, and then approved,” Castellanos said. “In this region what you have so frequently seen are developers who fully bake the cake before they let people weigh in. If you want to have a successful project, you have to let folks weigh in on the recipe, and that’s what this project did.” RIDA’s hotel and convention center project would A 20-story, 1,600-room hotel – as viewed from the harbor – would anchor RIDA’s redevelopment of the Chula Vista anchor the Chula Vista Bayfront.

LONG BEACH — A city-run sailing center at Long Beach’s Alamitos Bay Marina will receive $26,100 in state grant funding to help make upgrades to the facility’s stock of non-motorized vessels. The Long Beach City Council voted to accept the funding from California’s Division of Boating and Waterways (DBW) to help pay for “much-needed replacement of non-motorized vessels, such as canoes, kayaks and sailboats” at Leeway Sailing Center. “The vessels are necessary to continue sailing, kayaking and aquatic programs that are offered through [Long Beach’s Department of Parks, Recreation and Marine],” city staff told council members ahead of their April 17 meeting. “These affordable programs focus on water safety for visitors of all ages throughout the Southern California region,” city staff continued. Leeway Sailing Center offers on-the-water themed programs, such as sabot and capri sailing lessons, bay kayaking, keelboat classes, racing clippings and sailing camps, year-round.

“The vessels currently being utilized at Leeway Sailing Center were built in the 1970s; many of the vessels are past their useful lifespan,” city staff stated in its report to council members. “Safety is a concern and constant repairs can extend the vessels’ usefulness for only a short period of time.

Representatives from the city of Long Beach and the vendors who rebuilt Alamitos Bay Marina celebrated the grand reopening of the large recreational boating venue with a ribbon cutting ceremony on April 27. The $105 million rebuild took roughly 13 year to complete.

Long Beach christens updated Alamitos Bay Marina City completes $100 millionplus overhaul of 1,600-slip boating venue. By Parimal M. Rohit LONG BEACH — Alamitos Bay Marina’s multi-basin rebuild and overhaul as conceived later and completed earlier than a similar – and smaller – boating venue redevelopment in Dana Point. Long Beach city officials and their private sector partners, nonetheless, celebrated what they identified as an arduous journey by christening the updated Alamitos Bay Marina with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, April 27. The Alamitos Bay Marina rebuild was conceived in 2005. Anywhere from 100 to 300 boats were shuffled around during the phased marina rebuilt. Construction, which took seven phases to complete, began in 2011 and covered Alamitos Bay Marina’s seven basins. City officials stated the rebuild’s price tag was $105 million. Bellingham Marine – the lead private firm on the rebuild project – replaced 1,967 slips with 1,646 new one. Rebuilding Long Beach’s largest marina was a public-private partnership involving city staff, the city’s Marine Advisory Commission and boat owners association, California’s Division of Boating and Waterways and the California Coastal Commission. Firms representing the private sector included Bellingham Marine, Anchor QEA, TranSystems Inc. and Moffatt and Nichol. Slip mix, environmental issues and permitting process were among the hurdles all parties had to overcome, according to Marine Bureau chief Elvira Hallinan. “This has been an epic project,” Long Beach City Manager Pat West said. “This was a huge, huge undertaking.” Nina Moussavi, who represented Long Beach City Council member Suzie Price’s office, acknowledged the

updated marina as a welcomed amenity for boaters and local residents alike. Alamitos Bay Marina is within Price’s council district. Moussavi specifically noted the marina’s new concrete floats, rounded slip fingers, ADA accessible gangways and in-slip pumpout systems. She also identified Alamitos Bay Marina as an economic asset for Long Beach “The marinas, if you don’t know, are a big economic asset to the city. They employ [more than] 100 individuals and we generate about $22 million in slip revenue annually,” Moussavi said, adding another $52 million in direct and indirect revenues from Long Beach’s boating venues are infused into the local economy every year. Eric Noegel, Bellingham Marine’s manager of project development, said the Washington State-based company “We are particularly honored to have built Alamitos Bay Marina, the largest single coastal marina in the United States,” Noegel said, adding his company oversaw the replacement of 1,967 slips with 1,646 single-berth slips. “The new Alamitos Bay Marina boasts a state-of-the-art facility that reflects the project team’s desire to do it right the first time.” Noegel stated the slip mix and layout was established to account for future demand, while the concrete floats were built with longevity and stability in mind. “The marina’s hardwood trim, rounded finger-ends and in-slip sewage pumpout systems provide the finest amenities for the boaters,” Noegel said. Alamitos Bay Marina was built in the 1950s and is home to a fuel dock, shipyard, restaurants and yacht clubs. Boats ranging from 25 to 115 feet can dock at the marina. CenterCal Properties, the El Segundo-based developer behind The Waterfront project at Redondo Beach’s King Harbor, is currently building a new visitor-serving commercial center directly across from Alamitos Bay Marina. The center is slated to open in summer 2019.

Clean, Green & Marine: Santa Barbara Waterfront Department’s Environmental Mission Santa Barbara city officials weigh in on the value of the Clean Marina Program, Green Business certification and other harbor projects.

to clean up the Pacific Garbage Patch, Santa Barbara’s cost to run the Clean Marine Program is a deal.

Waterfront Department Green Business Certified

SANTA BARBARA — As boaters, anglers and marine-life lovers know, it takes a community effort to keep the beaches and waters clean and safe. After all, there is a responsibility to do our part to make sure the waterfronts are here to enjoy for years to come. During a Santa Barbara Harbor Commission Meeting that took place on April 19, several announcements were made that showed Santa Barbara staff is reaching to keep their waters and beaches more spotless and protected than ever.

Clean Marina Program Annual Review Mick Kronman, Harbor Operations Manager, gave a detailed yearly overview of Santa Barbara’s Clean Marina Program and covered the environmental protection of the harbor, hull-cleaning practices and facilities boaters can use such as bilge pump-out locations, waste oil disposal, marine battery collection and fishing line recycling. Santa Barbara Harbor piloted a plan for fishing line recycling containers now being used up and down California’s coast. Receptacles to gather monofilament fishing line are located at Stearns Wharf Bait & Tackle stations and on the sportsfishing boats F/V Stardust and F/V Coral Sea. Kronman stated about 5 pounds of line were gathered, which might not seem like a lot but think about how much lightweight fishing line would need to be balled up to reach that weight. Discarded fishing line can cause problems for marine life that become entangled in it among other issues. The harbor offers more than 40 debris nets and 14 were replaced. Some boaters may not be aware, but Kronman said the nets are there for public use and boaters are encouraged to gather trash,

Mick Kronman, Santa Barbara’s Harbor Manager, gave his annual presentation on the Clean Marina Program, of which the city is the only one in California that operates with two “robust” plans. Other topics of the latest Santa Barbara Harbor Commission meeting included Green Business certification, offering CIMWI a lease and the yearly Operation Clean Sweep event.

Copper-based paints and the alternative products have been controversial, and Kronman discussed the Waterfront Department’s dabbling in anti-fouling paints.

worked well. Kronman also mentioned though it has worked so far, it still might not be an option for harbor patrol boats. Kronman acknowledged the part of boaters, who have made efforts to utilize new receptacles and programs to dispose of waste, pointing out that boaters have increasingly been taking advantage of the Surrendered and Abandoned Vessel Exchange (SAVE) program. Commissioner Shoham Yaniv stated the efforts have helped improve the improving water quality and sanitation at Santa Barbara Harbor. “Harbor water quality is more than just aesthetics … [fishermen] depend on good water quality,” Yaniv said. “The world knows we have clean catches.” To date, Santa Barbara Harbor is the only one in California to be certified with two clean marina programs. Costs for the 2017 Fiscal Year to run the Clean Marina Program initially totaled $97,960 with higher costs going to the “Salad Boat” at $23,800, which gathered more debris during the storms, and $37,640 for SAVE Vessel Disposal. However, with FEMA and grant reimbursements, a combined $67,130, the grand total was $30,830 to operate for the year. In contrast with NOAA’s estimate of around $489 million a year

Waterfront Business Manager, Brian Bosse, announced Santa Barbara Harbor had recently met all criteria to become certified by Santa Barbara’s Green Business Program, a branch of the state Green Business Program. The certificate, which was awarded on April 11, took place more than six months and required three separate onsite assessments. “The Waterfront Department is the first department within the city of Santa Barbara organizations to be awarded the green business certification,” Bosse stated. The process required answering around 200 questions in a 30-page document and completing the aforementioned assessments, reviewed by the state and also local consultants, in areas of waste reduction and recycling, water conservation and waste water, and pollution preservation. Other local businesses participating in the program were Shoreline Beach Café, Sea Center and Santa Barbara Sailing Center. Bosse encouraged other local businesses and interested parties to reach out to Santa Barbara County’s Green Business California Program Director, Frances Gilliland, who can be reached at 805-705-1686.

Channel Island Marine and Wildlife Institute Commissioners unanimously voted to extend a five-year lease option to Channel Island Marine and Wildlife Institute (CIMWI), who respond, rescue and treat marine mammals. The space will be rented for $1,000 a month at an 877-square-foot space. To learn more about CIMWI, visit the website at cimwi. org.

Operation Clean Sweep Kronman announced the annual event Operation Clean Sweep will take place on Saturday, May 5 to continue a seafloor litter-removal project at Marina Two. This year, the event is calling all divers to focus on underwater levels of cleanup. Though the event will take place shortly after press time, those who have an opportunity to join in will be provided with a delicious boxed lunch, free of charge, as long as they participate in the clean-up event. Jim Sloan, Harbor Commission Chair, reminded participants to wear old clothes since there is a likely chance those involved will get dirty. More than 19 tons of rubbish has been collected by volunteers in 11 years of annual events, according to the city’s website. Contact Harbor Operations at 805564-5531 for further information.

California Coastal Commission: Newport Beach Is Not A Port The Coastal Act only recognizes four “ports” – Los Angeles, San Diego, Long Beach and Port Hueneme. By Parimal M. Rohit

NEWPORT BEACH — Spelling “Newport Beach” without the word “port” leaves you with, well, “New Beach.” The city of Newport Beach probably isn’t changing its name to New Beach anytime soon. Yet Newport Beach’s city leaders and lobbyists were unsuccessful in their attempts to convince the California Coastal Commission to re-classify the Central Orange County harbor as a port. Newport Beach and the Coastal Commission squared off against each other at the quasi-judicial agency’s April meetings in Redondo Beach, with city representatives and commissioners debating the merits of “port” versus “harbor.” The debate specifically centered around Assembly Bill 1196 (AB 1196), which was proposed by Assembly member Matthew Harper, R-Newport Beach, earlier this year. AB 1196 specifically sought to amend The Coastal Act of 1976 to create the Port of Newport Beach. Establishment of the “Port of Newport Beach” would have taken Newport Beach Harbor out of the Coastal Commission’s original permit jurisdiction. Commissioners did not support the proposal and voted on April 12 to oppose AB 1196. Newport Beach’s City Council retreated less than two weeks later, deciding to revisit the issue and figure out a new strategy.

The Coastal Act Sarah Christie, a legislative analyst with the California Coastal Commission, said the Coastal Act specifically lists and recognizes California’s four ports: San Diego, Long Beach, Los Angeles and Port Hueneme. These four ports are authorized to create “Port Master Plans;” each Port Master Plan functions similar to Local Coastal Programs, or LCPs. Chapter 8 of The Coastal Act specifically deals with California’s ports. Humboldt Bay Harbor is also treated the same as the ports of Los Angeles, San Diego, Long Beach and Port Hueneme under The Coastal Act. “The whole premise behind Chapter 8 is that ports have an important and a unique role and function in the state and the nation’s economy. Their activities are intensely industrial and commercial and transportation related,” Christie told commissioners on April 12. “Most of what ports do would be very difficult to approve under The Coastal Act, if not impossible, just because [of the] intensity of those activities.” Port Master Plans, according to

Port Master Plans are specifically required to give the highest priority use for port purposes, including but not limited to navigational facilities, shipping industries and those kinds of activities. “We’re concerned about the precedent this would set,” Christie continued. “It’s a pretty dramatic ceding of the commission’s authority.” Municipal governments should not be given independent authority over state waters, Christie stated. A campaign to rename Newport Beach’s harbor as the Port of Newport Beach was unsuccessful, as the California Coastal Switching from Commission rejected the city’s application. Newport Beach did not qualify as a port under The Coastal Act, according to commission staff. Newport Beach Harbor to the Port of Newport Christie, are used to help ports effiharbor waters was materialized in AB Beach would, according to Coastal ciently modernize, maintain and 1196.

Proposal to address commercial vessel issue placed on suspense file and will be reviewed by Appropriations Committee. By Parimal M. Rohit

SACRAMENTO — A proposal to use certain revenues to remove abandoned or derelict commercial vessels from the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta was approved by the Assembly’s Committee on Natural Resources, April 9. The bill – AB 2441 – was then placed on the Suspense File on April 25 and directed to the Assembly’s Appropriations Committee. Every legislative proposal with significant costs associated with it are generally placed on a Suspense File, allowing legislators to fully review a bill’s economic ramifications before allowing it to proceed to a full vote in either house. Assembly member James Frazier, D-Fairfield, introduced AB 2441 earlier this year. The bill specifically proposes to redirect income received from surface uses of Delta lands under the jurisdiction of the State Lands Commission to remove any abandoned or derelict commercial vessels. AB 2441 would specifically shift $6.9 million from California’s General Fund

to the State Lands Commission specifically for the removal of abandoned or derelict commercial vessels found in the delta. A study published by California’s Department of Fish and Wildlife revealed the Delta region was home to nearly 250 abandoned or derelict vessels in 2017, 54 of which were commercial. “On average, two additional commercial vessels appear in the Delta each year. Abandoned boats, especially those that capsize and sink, can interfere with boating traffic and damage operational vessels attempting to navigate the waterways,” a legislative analysis of AB 2441 stated. “Abandoned boats that begin to deteriorate can leach toxic chemicals or dump fuel into state waterways.” The latest legislative analysis of AB 2441 – which was published on April 23 – added abandoned or derelict commercial vessels are much more expensive to remove, compared to their recreational counterparts. “While 78 percent of [abandoned or derelict vessels] in the Delta are recreational vessels, commercial vessels are responsible for the vast majority of costs associated with removal. [The Department of Fish and Wildlife] estimates it will cost approximately $30 million to remove all commercial [abandoned or derelict vessels] in the Delta,” the Assembly’s latest legislative

analysis of AB 2441 stated. The State Lands Commission, interestingly enough, does have authority to remove abandoned or derelict vessels from navigable waterways, whether or not such waterways are within its jurisdiction. Funding to remove such vessels, however, is a dodgy issue. The quasi-judicial agency does not have a budget to address the issue, nor is there a vessel owner on the other side who could be on the hook for such costs. “Often there is not an owner of an [abandoned or derelict vessels] or the

owner does not have sufficient financial resources to pay for removal,” the Assembly’s April 23 legislative analysis of AB 2441 stated. AB 2441 is not the first effort to redirect state funds toward the removal of abandoned or derelict commercial vessels. Frazier, during the 2015-16 legislative calendar, proposed to expand use of the Abandoned Watercraft Abatement Fund, or AWAF, to cover the removal and storage of abandoned commercial vessels. The bill, however, never made it out of committee.

Oxnard harbor community to challenge special tax Some Channel Islands Harbor claim too much of tax goes to harbor patrol costs.

OXNARD — Voters who live on the upper Channel Islands Harbor waterfront will have a chance to challenge a tax system redirecting funds to local harbor patrol efforts, as an initiative aiming to lower residential levy obligations will be on the November ballot. The ballot initiative, which was validated by the Oxnard City Council on April 3, will appear on the Nov. 6 ballot. Residents of the Seabridge and Westport communities – both of which are located in the upper Channel Islands Harbor waterfront – claim they pay an unfair portion of harbor patrol costs. A blog post on Channel Islands Community Association (CICA) website in 2016 stated the two neighborhoods contribute about 44 percent of harbor patrol costs despite being home to 17 percent of slips. The initiative was pushed by Robert Chatenever, which was verified by the Ventura County Registrar of Voters and had enough signatures to qualify for

of Channel Islands Boulevard managed by Ventura County; private slips and residents occupy the northern portion of Channel Islands Harbor. Seabridge and Westport are apparently home to 500 slips, compared to 2,448 at Channel Islands Harbor, 645 at Mandalay Bay and 127 at Harbor Isle, according to CICA. Seabridge was reportedly added to the Channel Islands Harbor waterfront in 2006. The community occupies more than 135 acres on the waterfront and is a mixed-use development offering commercial, recreational and residential opportunities. A 2002 memorandum of understanding between Oxnard, Ventura County and the mixed-use development established a special tax to pay for the creation of a community facilities district and harbor patrol substation in the Seabridge area, among other things. The Seabridge ballot initiative is the latest electoral challenge associated with management of a waterfront. Voters in Redondo Beach approved Measure C in March 2017; the ballot initiative challenged CenterCal Properties’ The Waterfront project at King Harbor by placing limits on largescale development.

Residents of the Seabridge community of Channel Islands Harbor (located at the upper end of the harbor) are challenging a district tax. Funds from the tax are used to pay for local harbor patrol efforts.

the ballot. Chantenever pursued the initiative in hopes of reducing the amount of tax money directed toward harbor patrol operations, according to a news report. City officials, however, pondered whether a lowered assessment would result in less money available for infrastructure and maintenance costs. A Ventura County Star report stated Seabridge residents pay an estimated $1.6 million into a community district

fund, about half of which is directed to cover harbor patrol costs. The ballot initiative aims to restructure the amount local waterfront residents pay into the fund, ultimately reducing the amount of money available for harbor patrol services. It is unclear whether other services would be cut, as well, should voters approve the initiative in November. Channel Islands Harbor is split into two, with the waterfront south

Classics – Gracie A Boat Also Known as TuTuBaqs: Gracie wasn’t always known as Gracie. Previously, she had an owner who was passionate about birds and thus decided on the Native American word, TuTuBaqs, for a type of loon that thrives up north. “The name Gracie has no specific meaning to us – it’s just a pleasant sounding word,” Walker said.

By Devon Warren In this feature, The Log looks at notable boats — sail and power — that continue to turn heads in Southern California harbors. Boat name: Gracie Length: 36 ft. Draft: 2 ft. Beam: 11 ft. Year Built: 1950 Background: Not much is known about the mysterious Ed Monk design – now dubbed Gracie – even by her current owner, Larry Walker. However, Walker has pieced together as much as he could about this classic wooden beauty, which was built by a Washington-based boat builder named Bud Fodor more than 60 years ago. “The boat came from Washington State, just south of Seattle,” Walker stated. “The [previous] owner had owned her for 18 years and kept her in a boathouse. She was in fine shape, but has been a challenge to maintain the brightwork in California because of dryness and a need to cover nearly all of her with canvas, which comprises of 12 pieces put together like a jigsaw puzzle.” Mentioning the most admirable qualities Gracie has, Walker added: “Gracie’s most outstanding feature is her design, which was done by Ed Monk, perhaps the most admired marine architect of his day. His designs have a distinctive look that catches the eye of any old boat enthusiast.”

Keeping Gracie in Tip-Top Shape: “We have only made minor changes to the exterior, not counting many hours or painting and varnishing,” Walker stated. Aiming to keep Gracie in the condition she was first born into, Walker has only made three exterior additions to her: two kayaks and a dinghy. “The dinghy replaces an inflatable that came with the boat, obviously not native to the 1950s,” Walker said, adding the kayaks are “his” and “hers.” A number of decorative changes have been made to the interior, including a recently replaced ceiling material. Though Walker acknowledges the replacement was not authentic, it is more attractive and practical. One distinctive touch is the hide-a-bed located in the forward cabin.

“I asked the previous owner, ‘How in the world did you get this aboard? It’s much too big to fit through any opening.’ He said it was disassembled and brought-in in pieces,” Walker said. “We wanted to recover it but avoid the idea of taking it apart, then putting it back together. I found an upholsterer who came aboard, made measurements and then returned to put it all together.”

Santa Catalina Island Co. to replace boat launch ramp

By Parimal M. Rohit

REDONDO BEACH — An application to replace a landing and launch ramp at Pebbly Beach just outside of Avalon was approved by the California Coastal Commission during its April meetings in Redondo Beach. Santa Catalina Island Co. specifically proposed an in-kind replacement of a 30-foot-by-105-foot concrete landing and launch ramp. The news launch ramp will be made of precast concrete panels, four 15-foot long H-piles and four 12-inch-by-12-inch square concrete sleeper rails, according to a commission staff report. The launch ramp application was approved as part of the Coastal Commission’s consent calendar on April 12. “The existing ramp sustained damage as a result of the large south swells caused by Hurricane Eugene during the week of July 10, 2017, which undermined the existing landing and launch ramp,” commission staff stated in a report to commissioners. The boat launch ramp was built in the 1940s. It was part of a transpor-

Balboa Yacht Club looks to defend Governor’s Cup

NEWPORT BEACH — Melvin Addison Richley, Jr., a sixth generation Californian who was an active member of Lido Isle Yacht Club and launched a boat-building company, has died; he was 90. Richley relocated to Newport Beach in 1958, arriving at Orange County’s central coast after being born and raised in Los Angeles. He was an avid sailor and Lido Isle resident, according to his obituary posted on the legacy.com website. The obituary added Richley was an active member of Lido Isle YC, Yacht Racing Union and Southern California Yachting Association. He also led the effort to build the Antibes boat garden at Lido Isle Community Association. Richley also launched his own boat-building company, according to his legacy.com obituary. The company built Newport 16s, 27s, 30s and 41s throughout the 1960s. The sailor and entrepreneur reportedly purchased Amante, a Choat 48, in

1982 and entered her into several races to Catalina, Hawai’i, Mexico and San Francisco. Richley’s family arrived in California with Father Junipero Serra and the Spanish Army. Richley himself was born in 1928 and graduated from Loyola High School. After high school he enrolled at the U.S. Maritime Academy, where he graduated at age 20 as a 2nd Class Engineer. He later went to USC and became a C.P.A., graduating second in his class. Ridley would work at Arthur Andersen and, according to his obituary, had John Wayne as a client. Richley served in the Navy as a lieutenant during the Korean War and was the chief engineer on Tucker, a destroyer. Ridley would later graduate from USC Law School. His wife, three sons and six grandchildren survive the former boating entrepreneur; Ridley was predeceased by his first wife, Francis June Richley.

Newport Landing Sportfishing photo

A half-day trip aboard Patriot out of Newport Landing Sportfishing in Newport Beach only had five anglers aboard on April 23, but they returned to shore with eight yellowtail – including catches of 19 and 23 pounds. Patriot anglers generally catch rockfish this time of year, but Capt. John was able to hit a sonar school of yellowtail – much to the delight of those on board.

Illegal fish poaching bill unanimously approved by California Assembly Assembly member Lorena Gonzalez Fletcher’s proposal now moves to State Senate. By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO — A proposal to crack down on illegal fish poaching activities by commercial fishing operations earned the support of the California Assembly, as the lower house voted 73-0 in favor of Assembly Bill 2369, or AB 2369. Assembly member Lorena GonzalezFletcher, D-San Diego introduced the bill earlier this year. Her proposal specifically targets commercial fishing operations found poaching fish from California’s network of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). Gonzalez-Fletcher’s staff stated AB 2369 is “an important step in preserving the delicate coastal ecosystem” of the MPA network. Passenger fishing vessels and party

boats are also targeted in GonzalezFletcher’s bill. AB 2369 would, according to Gonzalez-Fletcher’s staff, “stiffen penalties and serve as an important deterrent to some of the worst offenders, including passenger fishing vessels, or party boats, that poach in Marine Protected Areas.” “Under this bill, a business that violates the law could be fined $5,000 to $40,000 and face up to a year in jail on a misdemeanor conviction. Penalties for a second violation would be a loss of fishing license, a fine of $10,000 to $50,000, and up to a year in jail on a misdemeanor conviction,” the Assembly member’s staff continued. Gonzales-Fletcher, in a released statement, said stiff fines are the only option to reduce illegal poaching activities within the MPA network. “California’s protected marine areas have a very delicate ecosystem, and greedy poachers can do an enormous amount of damage,” Gonzalez-Fletcher said. “Pleas to these poachers’ sense

MAMMOTH LAKES — The 2018 trout season is officially underway in the Eastern Sierras, with many freshwater lakes opening their waterways to anglers from all across California, April 28. Anglers regularly flock to the Eastern Sierras this time of year to celebrate the trout season opener – often dubbed “Fishmas.” Gilbert Hernandez of Fontana was one such angler who made his way north during the final weekend of April. He reeled in a 9-pound and 6-ounce rainbow trout on the North Shore of Convict Lake with a Rapala.

San Diego Report

Spring fishing season continues to deliver on bluefin, yellowtail and more By Bob Vanian

SAN DIEGO — Relatively mild northern spring weather fronts are still passing through Southern California but that has not stopped the continued development of the spring fishing season. Good weather days have seen anglers out on the water and catching a variety of species, highlighted by bluefin tuna, yellowtail, bonito, bass and the occasional halibut or white sea bass. A relatively mild weather system recently passed through Southern California but there were still some bluefin tuna, yellowtail and bonito biting offshore. The bluefin catches were off some from what they had been like earlier in the week but New Lo-An out of Point Loma Sportfishing had a fine day of bluefin tuna fishing with 32 anglers on a 1.5-day trip catching 27 bluefin tuna. Old Glory out of H&M Landing fished a 1.5-day trip with 13 anglers and returned with 65 bonito, four yellowtails and two bluefin tuna. Seaforth Sportfishing had Tomahawk fishing a 1.5-day trip with 15 anglers who caught three yellowtails and 12 bonito. Seaforth Sportfishing also had San Diego fishing a full-day trip with 47 anglers catching 27 yellowtails and 87 bonito. Fisherman’s Landing had Liberty

fishing a full-day trip with 36 anglers catching 26 yellowtails and 100 bonito. The areas producing offshore action have been the 295 Bank, Upper Hidden Bank, 425 Bank and 371 Bank. Boats working the region of the 295 Bank have been fishing from 70 to 80 miles 175 degrees from Point Loma. Boats fishing the region of the 371 Bank, 425 Bank and Upper Hidden Bank have been working from 25 to 40 miles 175 to 210 degrees from Point Loma. The bluefin tuna caught during the past week or so have ranged from 25 to 191 pounds, with most of the fish being caught during the past several days being in the 25- to 70-pound range. Best bet for the bluefin has been to locate a sonar mark and then stop and fish with flat fall jigs, flylined sardines and sardines that are fished deep with a 4- to 8-ounce torpedo sinker attached to the line via a rubber band. Also look for meter marks, working birds and the occasional spot of breaking fish to locate the bluefin. Kelp paddies are producing yellowtail, bonito and an occasional bluefin tuna. Also look for trolling strikes and spots of breaking fish to locate the bonito. Most of the yellowtail and bonito have been in the 4- to 10-pound range. The fishing around Los Coronado Islands has improved for bonito and yellowtail and also continues to provide

good numbers of rockfish. The bonito and yellowtail are biting in an area a short way below the Mexico border while fishing to the north of North Island in 30 to 50 fathoms of water. The bonito are mostly in the 4- to 8-pound range and most of the yellowtail have been in the 4- to 10-pound class. Look for spots of breaking fish under working birds and for trolling strikes to locate the bonito. The most recent trip was aboard Vendetta out of H&M Landing that had 12 anglers on a three-quarter-day trip catch 30 bonito, 15 yellowtail, 16 reds and nine whitefish. The fishing for rockfish also remains good around Los Coronado Islands. Productive areas for reds and an assortment of rockfish have been the South Kelp Ridge, hard bottom areas to the north and the northwest of North Island and the lower end of the 9 Mile Bank while fishing on the Mexico side of the border. Boats fishing the 30 to 50 fathom depths outside of Imperial Beach have been picking up a mix of bonito and yellowtail but the fishing in this zone seems to be more hit or miss than the fishing for yellowtail and bonito that is going on in similar depths while fishing in Mexican waters to the north of North Island as talked about above. It is the same style of fishing as on the Mexico side of the border with schools of breaking bonito and bonito trolling

TIGHT LINES — By Parimal M. Rohit

Recreational halibut fishery officially open STATEWIDE — The 2018 recreational Pacific halibut fishery is officially open, with the first of four fishing periods running through June 15. Recreational halibut fishing opened May 1; the season’s other dates are July 1-15, Aug. 1-15 and Sept. 1 to Oct. 31. The season will close on Oct. 31 or when the quota is reached, whichever occurs first. This year’s Pacific halibut quota for the California subarea is 30,940 pounds, according to the Department of Fish and Wildlife. The quota is about 4,000 pounds less than the 2017 catch limit. “The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) has managed the Pacific halibut fishery to keep catches within the state’s recreational fishery quota. The open dates are not guaranteed days, and the fishery could be closed early if it is determined that projected catches will exceed the California quota,” a DFW blog post stated. “Again this year, [DFW] will monitor catches of Pacific halibut during the season and provide catch projection updates on

the [DFW] Pacific halibut webpage.” DFW, for the first time, will automatically conform to the state’s Pacific halibut regulations to federal regulations, as described in the California Code of Regulations Title 14, section 1.95. “Season dates were chosen based on input [DFW] received from an online survey that was conducted in February,” DFW staff stated. “The open dates are expected to meet the goal of providing as much opportunity to fish for Pacific halibut throughout the season while remaining within California’s limit.” Information and updates on in-season changes are available by visiting the DFW website or calling one of two hotlines: • DFW website, wildlife.ca.gov/ Conservation/Marine/ Pacific-Halibut • National Marine Fisheries Service Halibut Hotline, 800-662-9825 • DFW Recreational Groundfish Regulations Hotline, 831-649-2801.

(Clockwise from bottom left) Rockfish bites were aplenty on the May 1 fishing expedition aboard Stardust out of Santa Barbara. Anglers aboard Western Pride out of Newport Beach had their pick of sculpin, among other catches, during an April 29 trip. Native Sun was also out on the water, April 29, and returned to shore with a decent lot of yellowtail. The anglers aboard Mirage out of Oxnard had plenty of rockfish bites during an April 25 fishing run, but one lucky person reeled in the boat’s only yellowtail of the day.

strikes leading to most of the bonito and yellowtail action. The remainder of the fishing along the San Diego area coast remains good for a mix of rockfish, sand bass, calico bass, sculpin and an occasional halibut. There has also been a chance of catching a large yellowtail while fishing outside of the upper end of La Jolla. White sea bass fishing has been scratchy along the San Diego County coast but there is an occasional nice sized white sea bass found biting along the edges of the kelp beds at the upper end of La Jolla and along the edges of kelp bed areas between the Barn Kelp and Border Check Station above Oceanside. Live mackerel has attracted some attention from white sea bass. The spring season is continuing to progress and should continue to improve as the northern weather systems continue to lessen in number and intensity. Keep on fishing and I hope to see you out on the water!

May 11, 2018 A proposal to ban lead fishing weights has been taken off the table – for now. State legislators will now study the possible effects of lead on wildlife. The results could determine whether a ban on lead fishing weights is introduced again in Sacramento.

State legislature backs off lead fishing weight ban AB 2787 was amended in committee to propose a study, but questions still persist for some. By Parimal M. Rohit

SACRAMENTO — Assembly member Bill Quirk’s proposal to ban lead fishing weights and sinkers cleared its first committee hearing, but the legislation was amended before members voted in favor of the proposition. Assembly Bill 2787 (AB 2787), as amended, will move forward as a study on the potential effects of lead on California wildlife. The bill no longer proposes an outright ban on lead fishing tackle, which would be viewed as a legislative victory among California’s anglers. Quirk’s bill initially proposed an outright ban on lead fishing weighs and sinkers of 50 grams or lighter. A large contingency of angling groups and recreational fishers across the state immediately opposed the proposal, stating AB 2787 lacked scientific studies to support an all-out ban on lead fishing weights. The amended bill still posed some concerns to California’s angling lobby. “While we appreciate the author’s willingness to amend the bill and work with the angling community, the bill has not earned our support – not yet,” Marko Mlikotin, Executive Director of the California Sportfishing League (CSL), said in a released statement. “The study, as defined by the author, is overly broad and could be contracted out to an anti-fishing organization, instead of an objective government agency.” AB 2787, as amended, would direct a non-government agency to study the effects of lead on California wildlife. A statement issued by CSL shortly after the Assembly committee vote stated it hoped the study would be conducted by an objective government agency. Mlikotin added CSL coordinated a petition to stop the lead fishing ban proposal and gathered more than 5,500 signatures. He added the amended bill, despite lingering questions about

the proposed study, is a victory for California’s anglers. “Anglers can claim a big victory here, but there is no question that we need to continue to communicate to legislators the importance of protecting recreational fishing’s future,” Mlikotin stated. “Proponents of banning lead fishing tackle will not give up, even if there is no science to justify it.” Quirk introduced the bill in February, stating lead fishing weights were responsible for killing California’s wildlife. He proposed a ban on the manufacture, sale or purchase of lead-based fishing weights or sinkers by 2025. The proposed ban, as noted earlier, would have applied to lead fishing weights or sinkers of 50 grams or lighter. “Many birds consume river gravel to aid in mashing and digesting food. Often they accidentally ingest discarded lead fishing weights. The lead poisons their liver, leading to a slow death. Water fowl, in particular, are common victims,” Quirk said in a released statement shortly after the bill’s introduction. The proposal, however, did not cite specific statistics to demonstrate a connection between small lead fishing tackle and the death of certain wildlife species. Anglers and lobby groups, accordingly, challenged AB 2787, stating it was based on emotion, not evidence. The Bay Area Assembly member, however, did state lead was listed as a well-known toxin under California’s Proposition 65. “Since 1987 lead has been listed under Proposition 65 as carcinogenic and reproductive toxin,” Quirk was quoted as saying in a legislative analysis of AB 2787. “It has been banned from a variety of products, including ammunition, paint, gasoline and children’s toys. In 2008 the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment has issued a guideline to measure lead exposure to anglers from fishing tackle. “The methodology in the guideline makes clear that anglers can be exposed to amounts of lead in excess of safe exposure recommendations,” the legislative analysis continued.
