BIZARRE

By: JORDAN B. DARLING

What researchers have described as a “yellow brick road to Atlantis” is actually an example of ancient active volcanic geology.

The road was created through fracturing of volcanic roack which created a brick-like pattern. This, paired with its underwater location, lends itself to some fun comparisons. Still, the road does not lead to Atlantis but rather an interesting look at underwater volcanic activity and Hawaii’s seamounts.

Explorers on an expedition aboard the Exploration Vessel Nautilus, owned and operated by the Ocean Exploration Trust, discovered the unique geological formation while diving on the Lili’uokalani Ridge within the Papahānaumokuakea Marine National Monument in Hawaii.

Researchers returned to the area after a successful expedition in October 2021, which mapped the Lili’uokalani Ridge Seamounts for the first time.

The team returned in April of this year to conduct the first visual exploratory surveys of the seamount chain and investigate a split in the seamount trail that

has researchers puzzled.

Hotspot volcano chains are generally linear features, making the team wonder what caused the split in the subsea mountain group.

While exploring the summit of Nootka Seamount, the team spotted a “dried lakebed” formation, which they have identified as a fractured flow of hyaloclastite rock (volcanic rock formed in high-energy eruptions where many rock fragments settle to the seabed).

The 90-degree fractures in the rock are thought to be related to heating and cooling stress from multiple eruptions in this area. The fractures have created the brick road effect, lending itself to The yellow brick road was created through the fracturing of volcanic rock below the surface of the descriptor. the ocean.

National Maritime Day By: JORDAN B. DARLING

The United States celebrated the 89th National Maritime Day on May 22. Congress declared National Maritime Day in 1933 to recognize the maritime industry and commemorate the first successful crossing of the Atlantic Ocean using steam propulsion by the American steamship Savannah.

The holiday is meant to recognize the importance of the maritime industry and the Merchant Marines to the United States and honor those who severed the industry during times of peace and war.

The Merchant Marines were founded in 1775 and were vital during World War II. During the war, more than 250,000 member s of t he A mer ic a n Merchant Marine served their county, with more than 6,700 making the ultimate sacrifice. Hundreds were detained as prisoners of war, and more than 800 merchant ships were sunk or damaged, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation Maritime Administration website.

The holiday also coincides with the steamship SS Savannah’s journey across the Atlantic on an entirely steam

King Harbor Yacht Club ‘New Channels’ Hosts Jack’s Clubhouse REDONDO— King Harbor Yacht Club’s ‘New Channels’ program hosted Jack’s Clubhouse for a day of water activities on May 15. Jack’s Clubhouse is an afterschool program for special needs children based in Manhattan Beach, created two years ago. The kids came out to the harbor to kayak, sail on a 24-foot sailboat, and hang out on a powerboat. New Channels is in its 26th year and is part of the King Harbor Youth Foundation.

In addition, the program partners with several other charitable organizations to bring on-the-water experiences to underprivileged or differently abled kids.

New Channels sessions are held monthly; kids get a brief lesson on safety about the activities they will participate in, and after a full day of fun, they get to participate in a pizza social. For more information on New Channels, see www. khyf.org/new-channels.html.

Lifeguards Return to Ventura Harbor Beaches VENTURA— In a unanimous vote on May 5, Ventura’s Board of Port Commissioners authorized a contract with State Parks to provide lifeguard service to Harbor Cove, South Beach, and Surfers Knoll from May to September.

The approved contract of $140,131.07 will provide coverage of the three beaches over a five-month period. “The Port District has taken great pride in supporting enhanced beach safety by way of seasonal lifeguards on the Harbor’s beaches,” said Brian Pendleton, general manager of Ventura Harbor, in a May 12 press release. The Ventura Port District started securing summer lifeguards through State Parks in 2011. For questions on lifeguard times, call the State Lifeguards Dispatch at 805-648-3321, and for Ventura Harbor beach details, visit VenuraHarborVillage.com.

The Port of San Diego Commits $850,000 to Support Environmental Education Programs in the Bay SAN DIEGO— The San Diego Board of

Port Commissioners approved agreements with 12 environmental education programs within San Diego Bay. The agreements are part of the port’s Environmental Education Program, established in 2003, to engage students, teachers, and the community in environmentally friendly practices and education. “The Port of San Diego is pleased to provide environmental education opportunities to students within the Port’s five member cities and throughout the San Diego Bay watershed, which reaches as far east as Mount Laguna,” said Chairman Dan Malcolm, Port of San Diego Board of Port Commissioners in a May 18 press release. “Educating stu-

dents, their teachers, and families within these areas is crucial to protecting the health and environment of San Diego Bay and our surrounding waterfront.”

Proposals were scored and ranked, and port staff recommended $850,000 in funding over three years for 12 of the programs. The funding will come from the port’s environmental fund. Projects include San Diego Coastkeeper, Ocean Discovery Institute, I Love a Clean San Diego, Chula Vista Elementary School District, and several other projects which provide environmental education opportunities.

STATE/NATIONAL/ INTERNATIONAL Grunion Season in California has New Regulations As of June 1, the California Fish and Game Commission will extend the seasonal no-take closure for grunions through June 30. The new no-take period will take place April 1-June 30.

The commission also added a bag and possession limit of 30 grunions. The extension of the no-take period through June allows grunion more opportunities to spawn without being subject to recreational harvest. The new bag limits are meant to ensure the sustainable take of the species. During the open season, anglers 16 years old and older will need a California fishing license. Grunion can only be taken by hand. For more information, see the California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s website grunion web page.

The United States is Poised to Announce Plans to Battle Illegal Fishing in the Pacific On May 9, U.S. Indo-Pacific Coordinator Kurt Campbell announced the United States’ intention to release new plans to combat illegal fishing in the Pacific as part of the increased U.S. engagement with the region to counter China’s growing influence. “One of the biggest challenges in the Pacific is, in fact, illegal fishing,” said Campbell in a forum at Washington’s Center for Strategic and International Studies. “…

We believe that in the next couple of weeks, we are going to, through various institutions, announce a major set of capabilities designed to improve maritime-domain awareness.” In addition, Campbell said that the U.S. would look at capabilities to continue tracking shipping when vessels fishing illegally turn off electronic identifiers. Campbell did not give a set time when the plans would be announced, and the announcement came two weeks before President Joe Biden’s May 20-24 trip set for South Korea and Japan.

LEGAL ADVICE

ask a maritime attorney

By David Weil

California’s Boating and Fishing News

What is the Coast Guard Auxiliary’s role?

QUESTION:

Last month I was underway for a family outing on my boat, and I was stopped and boarded by the Coast Guard Auxiliary for a vessel safety check. The men who conducted the inspection were very professional and they wore uniforms that appeared to be the same as those that are worn by active-duty Coast Guard personnel. I had always thought that the Auxiliary was a civilian organization comprised of local boating volunteers.

Is this right? Is the Auxiliary a type of Coast Guard Reserve service? What is their legal authority?

2C DARK BKGND

ANSWER: The Coast Guard Auxiliary BW operates under the direct authority of the Coast Guard Commandant, but its members are civilian volunteers, and as such, the organization is not a reserve branch of the service. They occupy a unique position in the public service community, subject to both civilian and military authority at the same time.

The Auxiliary operates under Title 14, Part II of the United States Code, which grants the organization “such rights, privileges, powers and duties as may be granted to them by the Commandant.” This allows the Coast Guard to delegate an extremely wide range of Coast Guard duties to the Auxiliary, so long as that duty does not involve the carrying or use of a weapon.

106.7 million gallons of seawater per day through a screened intake pipe and then discharge 57 million gallons of high-salinity brine per day into the ocean using high-velocity diffusers.

The diffusers are needed to ensure the brine doesn’t just sink to the floor and create a dead zone, but the velocity of the discharge is high enough to kill marine life in about 168 million gallons of the receiving waters each day. The facility, in total, would kill marine life in about 100 billion gallons of seawater per year, resulting in substantial losses of marine ecosystem productivity and reduced water quality, all of which would require significant mitigation.

A Coast Guard “Auxiliarist” who is acting within the scope of his or her assigned duties enjoys many of the same benefits that are extended to active-duty Coast Guard personnel, including immunity from personal liability for negligence. The Auxiliary takes great care to avoid that type of incident, but if it were to occur, the Auxiliary member would be shielded from liability and the boat owner would need to consider a lawsuit against the federal government.

Members of the Coast Guard Auxiliary do wear the same uniform as regular Coast Guard officers, but they wear a modified insignia and do not use the corresponding military titles associated with ranks in the regular Coast Guard.

The Auxiliary was formed prior to World War II, and after the war their role was scaled back to the civilian duties most boaters are familiar with, such as courtesy safety inspections. Since 9/11, the role of the Coast Guard has changed, and the support function of the Auxiliary

On the other hand, Attorney D.J. Moore spoke on behalf of Poseidon and argued that they would put mitigation plans in place to protect sea life and that having a desalination plant in Orange County was critical to combatting the devastating drought taking place in California.

Several community leaders came forward, citing the necessity of the plant to provide potable drinking water for the community, including Carlsbad Mayor Matt Hall, who praised Poseidon’s work in Carlsbad.

Currently, all 58 counties are under a drought emergency proclamation in California, and 50 percent of Orange County’s water is imported from the Colorado River and 43 percent from the Sierra Nevada, which was the main argument for the plant.

After ten hours of testimony from both sides, the Coastal Commission had a short deliberation period that ended in a unanimous 11-0 vote to deny the permit.

Our reader’s experience with the boarding of his vessel is not uncommon.

When Coast Guard Auxiliary personnel board a vessel to conduct a safety inspection, they are invariably professional and courteous. The inspection is usually quick and efficient, especially when the crew of the boat that is being inspected returns that courtesy.

S H A S T A — T he C a l i f or n i a Depa r tment of Fish a nd Wild life announced on May 9 that it will be testing a pilot project this fall; for winter-run salmon to be able to access their historical spawinging grounds, get past dams, and get past the challenges these waterways are presenting them.

LAKE

California’s severe climate-driven drought has had a significant impact on the state’s water supply, but it’s also putting the state’s salmon population at serious risk.

Managing California’s water needs during this water supply crisis implies minimizing the impacts of drought and water management on the environment while meeting the health and safety needs of communities and supporting the economy and agriculture. The Department of Water Resources (DWR) and Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) are working to respond to drought and climate change impacts on native species and ecosystems.

Scientists and fish biologists from DWR and CDFW have a long history of working together to protect and support California’s salmon populations. Collaborating through shared projects, funding, and research efforts, DWR and CDFW are identifying critical challenges facing salmon and using the best available science and technology to find ways to promote salmon health and survival.

The water from Shasta Lake coming out of the Sacramento River is shared by cities, farms, residents, and fish. Those departments are the primary water needs, and supporting the Delta ecosystem requires a balancing act among those groups and interested agencies.

“Salmon are a cold-water fish species; they need cold water, and there’s just not a cold-water supply in Lake Shasta because the water levels are low,” said Peter Tira, public information officer for the CDFW. “So, what we’ve done the past couple of years is when the salmon return to spawn, the winter-run especially, they spawn in Redding, basically below the dam at the hottest part of the year during summer, and if they are successful at spawning the water is too warm for those eggs to hatch or even for the juveniles to develop properly.”

Likewise, winter-run salmon are an

endangered species and the most likely to face extinction. Their life cycle has been hard hit by climate change and drought.

These fish would ordinarily swim up through Sacramento and then move up through the Sacramento River into tributaries, where water conditions are cold and conducive to spawning. They haven’t been able to do that since constructing the dams for Shasta Lake. Therefore, the salmon are stuck at the base of those dams in the middle of summer.

“So, we’re taking some emergency actions this year,” said Tira. “We’re moving winter run[salmon]... and physically driving them to the North Fork of Battle Creek, which is their historic spawning grounds; there are some barriers that prevent them from getting to that colder water, so we are physically driving them, and releasing those adult winter run to spawn.”

The CDFW is also transferring the spring-run chinook to the upper regions of Clear Creek in northern California.

“We need to make sure these fish survive,” said Tira. “They typically have a three-year life cycle, and this will be the third year of a drought, so if [California] has another bad production year, the whole species faces a threat. So we’re going to test what we call a juvenile collection system this fall along with the department of water resources so that these salmon are able to get past the dams and access their historical spawning grounds.”

There are too many predators and obstacles for the juvenile salmon; therefore, they will be collected and redistributed to Shasta Lake.

The state has embarked on dozens of projects to ensure the success of California’s salmon populations. These projects include restoring critical habitats for salmon and other fish species, improving salmon migration corridors to and from the ocean, and increasing monitoring efforts to track the status of populations better and devise new strategies to improve their status.

Significant course diversions and several channels and pumping instruments construct the Delta.

“These fish have to get through the Delta, and [improving salmon migration corridors] it’s really for when they return from the ocean and navigate the Delta,” said Tira. “So, for example, around the southern bypass, we did some vegetation removal. It’s things like putting screens up on these pumping areas so that they don’t pull in salmon or so salmon don’t get diverted into these canals and get stuck.

It’s addressing their migration quarters and where they run into problems. It addresses the whole migration needs from the ocean to the rivers and back.”

Love Is In The Air. No, Wait, That’s CO2 A new study found that human activities such as marsh draining are leading to an increase of salt and freshwater wetlands being eaten away, but there is time to correct the problem.

By: KATHERINE M. CLEMENTS

A wetland is an area where water persists for most of the year. Wetlands are found worldwide and may be composed mainly of saltwater where water enters through a bay or underwater infusion.

Silliman believes successful restorations must replicate these processes.

“More than half of all wetland restorations fail because the landscape-forming properties of the plants are insufficiently taken into account,” said study co-author Tjisse van der Heide of the Royal Institute for Sea Research and the University of Groningen in the Netherlands in the study. “Planting seedlings and plugs in orderly rows equidistant from each other may seem logical, but it’s counter-productive.”

According to the study, restoration can be more successful when plants are placed in large dense clumps, when their landscape-forming properties are mimicked, or when large areas are restored on the first attempt.

“Following this guidance will allow us to restore lost wetlands at a much larger scale and increase the odds that they will thrive and continue to store carbon and perform other vital ecosystem services for years to come,” said Silliman. “The plants win, the planet wins, we all win.”

Silliman and van der Heide conducted the new study with scientists from the Netherlands’ Royal Institute for Sea Research, Utrecht University, Radboud University, the University of Groningen, the University of Florida, Duke University, and Greifswald University.

By synthesizing data on carbon capture from recent scientific studies, they found that oceans and forests hold the most CO2 globally, followed by wetlands.

“But when we looked at the amount of CO2 stored per square meter, it turned out that wetlands store about five times more CO2 than forests and as much as 500 times more than oceans,” says Ralph Temmink, a researcher at Utrecht University, who was the first author on the study.

Funding for the new study came from the Dutch Research Council, the Oak Foundation, Duke RESTORE, the Len-

lished May 6 by a team of Dutch, American, and German scientists found that it’s not too late to reverse the losses caused by marsh draining.

The paper’s authors say the road to success is using innovative restoration practices, identified in the new article, that replicate natural landscape-building processes and enhance the restored wetlands’ carbon-storing potential.

According to Brian R. Silliman, the Rachel Carson Distinguished Professor of Marine Conservation Biology at Duke University, who co-authored the study, nearly one percent of the world’s wetlands are disappearing each year due to pollution or marsh draining for agriculture, development, and other human activities.

Once the wetlands are disturbed, they release enormous amounts of CO2 from their soils, which account for about 5 percent of global CO2 emissions annually.

“Hundreds, even thousands of years of stored carbon are exposed to air and start to decompose and release greenhouse gases rapidly,” said Silliman in the study. “The result is an invisible reverse waterfall of CO2 draining into the atmosphere. The wetlands switch from being carbon sinks to sources. The good news is, we now know how to restore these wetlands at a scale that was never before possible and in a way that both stops this release of carbon and re-establishes the wetland’s carbon-storing capacity.”

What makes most wetlands so effective at carbon storage is that they are formed and held together by plants that grow close to each other, Silliman explained. A wetland’s dense above and below ground mats of stems and roots trap nutrient-rich debris and defend the soil against erosion or drying out, all of which help the plants grow better and allow the soil layer to build up, locking in more CO2 throughout the process.

In the case of raised peat bogs (a bog or bogland is a wetland), the process works differently, according to Silliman. Layers of living peat moss on the surface act like sponges by holding enormous amounts of rainwater that sustain its growth and permanently keep a thicker layer of dead peat moss below it. This prevents the lower layer of peat, which can measure up to roughly 33 feet wide, from drying out, decomposing, and releasing its stored carbon back into the atmosphere. As the living mosses gradually build up, the amount of carbon stored belowground continually grows.

HUNTINGTON BE ACH — A study pub-

Human activities such as marsh draining for agriculture and logging are increasingly eating away at saltwater and freshwater wetlands that cover only 1 percent of Earth’s surface but store more than 20 percent of all the climate-warming carbon dioxide absorbed by ecosystems worldwide.

fest Ocean Program, the National Science Foundation, and Natuurmonumenten.

Southern California has prioritized wetland restoration. For example, the Bolsa Chica wetlands are a saltwater marsh in Huntington Beach that have undergone substantial restoration to avoid issues such as releasing carbon dioxide. The Bolsa Chica wetlands measure 1,449 acres; it is one of the most productive ecosystems on the planet, supporting large numbers of plants and animals, and are highly dynamic.

“The Bolsa Chica Ecological Reserve is a coastal saltwater marsh, so the only “draining” that occurs is the natural fluctuation in the water levels that results from the tides changing throughout the day,” said a Kirsten Haltman, an education program coordinator for the Bolsa Chica Conservancy in an email from May 11. “It is never artificially drained for any

reason.”

While agriculture and development were once a threat to Bolsa Chica, the ecological reserve has been protected by state laws for the last 40 years. Therefore, it has not been used for those purposes for several decades. As a result, much of the reserve has already been restored to as close to original conditions (from the 1800s, before California became a state) as possible.

“The majority of restoration work done at Bolsa Chica is the removal of invasive species of plants (and sometimes installing native plants) and trash that can be harmful to the ecosystem,” said Haltman. “In addition to this work, the inlet located on the southern end of the reserve is dredged to allow proper flow of ocean water, but that is done by the State, not the Bolsa Chica Conservancy.”

Vaquita Porpoises Could Beat Extinction if Illegal Fishing Ends After Mexico drastically eased up on regulations protecting the Vaquita Porpoises, a new study has found that with some adjustments to current standards, the vaquita still has a chance of surviving.

On May 5, a study published in Science suggests there is positive news for the wildly endangered vaquita porpoise.

The study showed that the species’ generic diversity has long been relatively low and that vaquitas may therefore be less vulnerable to inbreeding than many other species.

Using a model to explore how likely the population is to survive under different conditions, researchers found that in scenarios where nets were taken out as a cause of death, there was only a six percent chance they would go extinct. But preventing more vaquitas from dying is urgent. That part of the story is, unfortunately, less encouraging.

To determine the risk of extinction caused by inbreeding depression, Robinson et al., a marketing company for public and non-profit sectors, sequenced and examined 20 vaquita genomes to determine their heterozygosity and ancestral population size (see the Perspective by Grueber and Sunnucks). The authors determined that the long-term population size of vaquitas has been low for a marine mammal, with approximately 1000 years of stable genomic diversity. Furthermore, genomic comparisons with other cetacean species and modeling indicated that vaquitas are unlikely to suffer from inbreeding depression. Therefore, if the risk of bycatch mortality caused by fishers can be eliminated, then there is a chance that this species will not go extinct.

By: KATHERINE M. CLEMENTS

For the past 25 years, Mexico has failed to fulfill its promises to protect the vaquita and its habitat from gillnets set to catch totoaba, a critically endangered fish whose swim bladders are in high demand in Asia, and other species.

In scenarios where no more vaquitas die in fishing nets, the population survives 94 percent of the time, leaving a six percent chance that they would still disappear. When death from bycatch was reduced by 90 percent, extinction risk increased to 27 percent. If deaths were reduced by only 80 percent, extinction risk climbed to 62 percent.

But according to the study, reducing the number of deaths from bycatch by 90 percent would mean that just one animal would die in a net roughly every 2.75 years or every 1.5 years for an 80 percent reduction. So, it will be urgent to prevent gillnets from being used in the vaquitas’ habitat to accomplish that figure.

“It’s a really exciting study,” said one of the authors Barbara Taylor of the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. “Because it gives scientists new tools to ask whether this species is really doomed to extinction because of

genetics or whether we should be worrying about other things. All conservation is about changing human behavior. If that comes at an economic cost, and people can use the excuse that they’re doomed anyway, that’s bound to be a hurdle to action.”

None of the information found means vaquitas are off the hook. Using the same model that allowed them to estimate past population numbers to predict what might happen in the future, researchers were able to assess the chances that the species would go extinct in the future.

But, of course, these numbers are just approximations, said Christopher Kyriazis of the University of California, Los Angeles, who led the modeling part of the study. The numbers reflect how often the species went extinct based on various conditions.

In July 2021, Mexico eased enforcement in Vaquita Zero-Tolerance Areas,

inducing their status on the endangered species list. The critically endangered vaquita, found only in the northernmost Gulf of California, Mexico, has dropped from 600 individuals in 1997 to ten individuals in 2021. This decline has been driven by incidental mortality of vaquita being caught in fishing gillnets. Efforts to reduce the intensity of illegal gillnet fishing and implement more robust protections for vaquitas have not been successful, and vaquitas are now considered the most endangered marine mammal.

A recent viability analysis found that the vaquita population could theoretically rebound if bycatch mortality is immediately eliminated. However, according to the authors, the degree to which genetic factors may prevent a robust recovery is unknown, which has led some to argue that the species is doomed to extinction from genetic threats.

NEWPORT BE ACH — The beloved pier

landmarks of Seal, Huntington, and Newport Beach dot the coastline of Orange County, where memories are made by taking sunset selfies and sunrise strolls.

The three iconic piers that once all had restaurants, a perk for visitors strolling over the Pacific Ocean below, now sit vacant, waiting on city officials tasked with creating a future for the popular destinations.

The demolition work on the Newport Beach pier began April 27 and was set to be completed before Memorial Day

weekend. Construction crews will remove the structure and restore the wooden pier deck underneath the building.

The demolition work starts the seaside city’s pier revitalization efforts. Locals cheer that it is about time.

“The restaurant has sat vacant for nearly ten years and was deteriorating,” said John Pope, public information manager for Newport Beach. “As a vacant building, it was also an eyesore, and the city frequently heard from residents requesting that it be removed.”

There are no immediate plans for a new restaurant. According to Pope, the city was engaged in talks with potential restaurant owners The Newport Pier is one of two municipal piers located within the city of Newport Beach, over the years, but ultimately there California, at the center of the Balboa Peninsula.

“The [Newport Beach] Council has called for an assessment of potential improvements to the Newport Pier and surrounding area, which includes McFadden Square, the adjacent parking lot, and bike path connections,” said Pope. “In the next few months, the city plans to hire an outside firm to conduct research, including extensive community input, on possible improvements for the area. This will be a “visioning” process to take a fresh look at the area, which is the oldest part of Newport Beach and the heart of its beach community.”

An upscale seafood restaurant was set to take over the Newport Beach Pier’s vacant building a few years back before the plans fell through.

As for the Huntington Beach Pier, the iconic Ruby’s Diner, which had served beachgoers since 1996, closed in February 2021.

CARB released a Draft Climate Action Plan to cut back the use of fossil fuels and reach carbon neutrality by 2045. Here is what that means for the maritime industry.

By: KATHERINE M. CLEMENTS

S A C R A M E N T O — O n M ay 10, t he

California Air Resources Board (CARB) released a draft plan navigating the state’s transition to a clean energy economy, drastically reducing the use of fossil fuels, achieving carbon neutrality by 2045 or sooner, and significantly cleaning the state’s air, especially in disadvantaged communities disproportionately burdened by persistent pollution.

The maritime industry transports more than 10 billion metric tons of cargo each year, including clothing, electronics, and oil. The majority of these ships run on fossil fuels, so they emit an abundance of carbon pollution. Maritime shipping causes about 3 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, even more than airplanes.

“The marine regulations called out in the draft Scoping Plan are mostly for ocean-going vessels,” said David Clegern, public information officer for CARB, in an email from May 18. “That includes full implementation of the 2021 At Berth Regulation that provides GHG, diesel particulate matter, NOx, and reactive organic gases (ROG) emissions reductions by requiring vessels to plug into grid electricity when they are at berth (or use another approved emission control technology). In 2007, CARB developed the original At Berth Regulation that required container, cruise, and refrigerated cargo to use grid electricity at berth beginning in 2014. The 2021 regulation achieves increased emissions reductions adding requirements for additional vessel types, auto carriers in 2025, and tankers in 2025 and 2027.”

According to Clegern, the 2021 At Berth Regulation requires staff to perform an Interim Evaluation by December 2022 to evaluate the potential inclusion of bulk and general cargo vessels and controls for vessels at anchor to achieve additional emissions reductions.

The draft Scoping Plan evaluated four potential scenarios for achieving carbon neutrality, reaching the 2030 goal of reducing GHG emissions 40 percent below 1990 levels. Two of those scenarios would achieve carbon neutrality by 2035; the other two by 2045. Through extensive modeling to determine future policy impacts on health and the economy, CARB staff concluded that Scenario 3 provided the most economically and technologically feasible route to carbon neutrality, including providing equity-based solutions focused on affordability and job preservation. Scenario 3 aligns with all ap-

plicable statutes and Executive Orders while deploying a broad portfolio of existing and emerging fossil fuel alternatives and clean technologies. It also provides a feasible timeline to develop the infrastructure and technology needed, especially the rapid build-out of renewable energy, and a lower overall cost of implementation with minimal impact on the economy. In addition, it will achieve an approximately 90 percent reduction in petroleum usage by 2045 and reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 80 percent by 2050, another state target.

The draft Scoping Plan also reviews California’s existing climate programs, such as the Low Carbon Fuel Standard, Cap-and-Trade, and Renewables Portfolio Standard. The draft Plan explains how these programs have been changed since the last Scoping Plan in 2017 and outline other programs and actions needed to achieve a low-carbon economy.

“The draft Scoping Plan includes a recognition that some sectors like marine may require liquid fuels to support decarbonization,” said Clegern. “The Board recently approved Commercial Harbor Craft amendments that include electrification and renewable diesel use in CHC to provide reductions of GHGs, diesel particulate matter, and NOx emissions reductions beginning in 2023, on top of those achieved by the 2011 CHC Amendments.”

Also, CARB recently adopted a Commercial Harbor Craft regulation that includes both electrification and renewable diesel use in those vessels.

In 2021, CARB proposed regulations for Commercial Passenger Vessels that would require boat owners to replace their current engines with tier-4 zero-emission engines. The regulations would require boat owners to reconstruct their boats not only to fit the engine onboard, but also change the material of which the boat is made because those engines were known to run hot and catch fire. After the boating community fought the proposed regulations, CARB settled on a new plan that proposes a more realistically achievable compliance schedule, while also moving towards a cleaner option — requiring boats to re-power to lower emission engines as the technology becomes available and economically feasible and safe.

On March 24, the California Air Resources Board approved updates to its Commercial Harbor Craft Regulation to reduce emissions from harbor crafts like tugboats and ferries operating near California’s coast to improve public health in nearby communities.

By 2035, the amendments are predicted to result in an 89 percent reduction of diesel soot (also known as particulate matter) and a 54 percent reduction in nitrogen oxides. The amendments will also reduce cancer risk for over 22 million residents who live near the coast and up to 50 miles inland.

The draft 2022 Climate Change Scoping Plan is the third update to the state’s initial 2008 Scoping Plan. It identifies a technologically feasible, cost-effective,

Considering the Maritime Industry’s Carbon Footprint

and equity-focused path to achieve carbon neutrality over the next two decades while also assessing the state’s progress towards reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by at least 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2030.

The release of the draft plan triggers a formal 45-day public comment period.

During the 45-day public comment period, the Environmental Justice Advisory Committee may provide additional input on the draft plan. The Board will consider the project in June.

“The draft Scoping Plan sets out an ambitious vision that advances equity and addresses the existential crisis of our generation with guidance for the concrete steps and actions needed actually to make it work,” said CARB Executive Officer Richard Corey in the May 10 press release. “When final, it will serve as the actionable plan for a more sustainable California for our children and a model for other industrialized economies around the world as they consider how to make their transition to a clean energy economy that provides health benefits and economic opportunity.”

The current commercial harbor craft regulation accelerated the move to Tier 2 and 3 engines for select categories beginning in 2009 through 2022; the new amendments will require zero-emission options where feasible and cleaner combustion Tier 3 and 4 engines on all other vessels. In addition, they will require the use of diesel particulate filters, which are standard equipment for new cars and trucks. Short-run ferries, which include those traveling less than three nautical miles over a single run, will be required to be fully zero-emission by the end of 2025. New excursion vessels, such as vessels offering whale watching or dinner cruises, are also needed to operate with at least 30 percent of the power from a zero‑emission source.

For all vessel categories, the approved amendments include compliance flexibilities such as fleet averaging or additional compliance time on other vessels in a fleet if a zero-emission ship is deployed where it is feasible but not required.

Achieving California’s goal of carbon neutrality by 2045 or sooner will also require re-envisioning our forests, farmlands, and rangelands to ensure that they play as robust a role as possible in reducing emissions and incorporating and storing more carbon. This focus will establish healthier forests that are more resistant to wildfires and increase health benefits from reduced exposure to wildfire smoke.

The plan also clarifies that to succeed in balancing the remaining carbon output with carbon storage, California must go beyond the capacity of its natural and working lands and deploy additional methods of capturing carbon dioxide that include pulling it from industrial smokestacks or drawing it out of the atmosphere itself and then safely and permanently storing it.

These efforts prioritize ensuring that all these efforts provide benefits to frontline communities most heavily burdened by persistent pollution and who will disproportionately bear the impacts of a warming planet.

The California Air Resources Board developed the draft 2022 Climate Change Scoping Plan in an unprecedented collaboration and coordination with multiple state agencies. That broad-based coordination lays the foundation for a whole government approach to future implementation. Development of the plan also included robust public engagement, including over a dozen workshops, webinars, or public meetings over the past year.

In addition, the draft plan was shaped by recommendations from the Environmental Justice Advisory Committee to ensure that environmental justice and frontline communities are front and center in the state’s efforts to address the climate emergency. The EJAC held 18 meetings, and there are some five dozen recommendations of the committee referenced throughout the draft plan. Ongoing collaboration with the EJAC will ensure that the final project is strong.

Blue Whales Blue Skies program in its 8th year of operation on the California coast The program continues to expand and achieve greater environmental benefits

SANTA BARBARA— On May 11 the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced it would continue the voluntary program known as “Blue Whales and Blue Skies” for the eighth year.

Global shipping companies will continue to be incentivized if they agree to reduce their transit speeds when they are traveling through coastal areas of California to reduce whale strikes and improve air quality. For nearly a decade, as shipping of cargo along the coast has increased, ship strikes have become a major threat to whales globally and locally. Not only does this increased activity effect the whale population from rebounding from decades of whaling, but air quality up and down our coast has declined.

“The National Marine Sanctuaries Act (under NOAA) guides us to create models of, and incentives for ways to conserve and manage, including innovative management techniques,” said Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary Superintendent, Chris Mobley. “This innovative incentive-based vessel speed reduction program, in collaboration with county air management districts, the shipping industry, other agencies, and NGOs, serves as a model for enhancing ocean and human health while promoting a sustainable, blue economy.”

A whale feeding in shipping lanes in Santa Barbara Channel. duce speeds during the months of whale abundance to these whales from ship strikes.

“Ocean-going vessels contribute over 40 percent of the nitrogen oxides emitted in Ventura County and the associated outer continental shelf area,” said Interim Air Pollution Control Officer Ali R. Ghasemi for Ventura County Air Pollution Control District.

Many species of whales, including the endangered blue, fin, and humpback whales come to feed in California’s nutrient rich coastal waters, typically in the late spring and fall months each year. Reducing the risk of ship strikes is a major priority for NOAA, including NOAA’s West Coast national marine sanctuaries.

This voluntary, incentive-based program is a critical component of our strategy to reduce ozone-forming emissions and meet the health-based air quality standards. The ozone concentrations in Ventura County were the lowest on record in 2021 and the Vessel Speed Reduction Program was believed to be a major contributor to this success.

“NOA A observed and documented deaths totaled 51 endangered whales from 2007-2021, and likely represent only a small fraction of the total number of ship strikes taking place annually,” said Resource Protection Coordinator Sean Hastings for the Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary.

The timing of the program also coincides with the season when ground-level ozone (smog) concentrations are typically high. The 10-knot target allows ships to travel at an efficient operating load using less fuel and producing less pollution. Ocean-going vessels transiting the California coast generate nitrogen oxides (NOx, a precursor to smog), sulfur oxides (SOx), particle pollution, and greenhouse gasses (GHGs). These vessels account for nearly 200 tons of NOx per day emitted off the coast of California, which affects ozone levels onshore in many regions of the state.

How the Program Works Shipping companies receive recognition and financial awards based on the percent of distance traveled by their vessels through the Vessel Speed Reduction (VSR) zones at 10 knots or less with an average speed of 12 knots or less. The 10-knot target complements the NOAA’s and U.S. Coast Guard’s requests for all vessels (300 gross tons or larger) to re-

“The 2021 and 2022 programs cover more time than previous programs because whales have been showing up ear-

lier and staying longer in their feeding areas along the coast,” said Hasting.

“And, by harmonizing the start/end dates between southern California and San Francisco Bay area it simplifies the program for the shipping industry and any schedule adjustments they must make to cooperate with the program.”

Program Results Results from the 2021 program, which ran May 15- Nov 15, 2021, show the transits of vessels participating in the VSR program helped reduce by 50 percent less strike mortality risk to whales than if those vessels did not slow in cooperation with the program.

Blue Whales and Blue Skies offer three award tiers to recognize participating companies based on the percent of distance their fleet traveled through the VSR zones at speeds of 10 knots or less. The three award tiers are Sapphire (85-100 percent of fleet total distance in VSR zones traveled at 10 knots or less), Gold (60-84 percent), and Blue Sky (3559 percent). Automatic Identification System (AIS) transponders on each ship transmit the ship’s speed and location; AIS data was analyzed for each fleet and the company’s performance was classified by tier. Companies that performed at the Gold or Sapphire level were awarded a financial incentive.

For the fourth year in a row, Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC) notably achieved the Sapphire tier in the large fleet category and demonstrated that planning enables ships to reduce

speeds in VSR zones without disrupting operations. In 2021, MSC traveled more than 23,000 nautical miles at 10 knots or less. Swire Shipping achieved the Sapphire tier in the small fleet category with 1,500 nautical miles at 10 knots or less. For their outstanding commitment, these two companies earned the Protecting Blue Whales and Blue Skies Whale Tail award.

Speed reduction reduces noise in the ocean and ships in the Sapphire, Gold, and Blue-Sky award tiers had sound levels that were 5 dB per transit lower when compared to baseline source levels. With a reduction in noise pollution whales can likely communicate easier.

Incentives ranged from $5,000 to $50,000 per company in the Gold and Sapphire award tiers.

Six companies – COSCO Shipping Lines, Maersk, Ocean Network Express (ONE), Wallenius Wilhelmsen, Yang Ming, and Swire Shipping – generously declined their financial incentive payment. Those funds will be used for additional public recognition efforts and reinvested in the program.

By: JORDAN B. DARLING

N E W P O R T B E A C H — On May 12 , Newport Beach City officials gathered to view a demonstration of the new human lift installed in the Newport Harbor; the lift is a collaborative effort between the harbor and recreation departments.

The lift is a portable machine that is placed into a cylindrical opening at the base of the gangway in Marina Park and can be used by disabled sailors to transfer into their sailboats, kayaks, and other watercraft.

The lift requires two people to operate, and members of the harbor department have already been trained to use it.

The sailor wears a life vest before being fitted into a sling attached to the lift.

Then, they will be lifted from their wheelchair or apparatus and swung out slowly over the water, guided by one of the two people operating the lift before they are lowered down into their vessel.

The project was brought forward after several requests were made to include a publicly accessible lift in the harbor for disabled sailors. “[There were] three separate requests from the city and constituents and a fourth request from OC Parks,” said City Harbormaster Paul Blank “…And we are off to the races, doing some design work, doing some investigation on what products exist and can be fitted to this facility.”

After extensive research, it was decided that a Reliant 450 lift from Invacare Corp. was the best option. Swift Slip Dock Builders, a company already contracted with the city, made modifications, including removing the lift from a mounted rolling fork and modifying the

base by welding a cylindric attachment to the bottom, which fits into the modification made to the dock.

“It is normally attached to this rolling fork, and you can just roll it where you want to go,” said Blank. “But for use here on the docks, there was no way to adequately secure the wheels and prevent it from rolling or tipping, so we had the base of it modified for that cylinder. and then there is a receptacle that was built into the dock in a specific location.”

The dock was modified with a covered opening, like a large hole, where the base of the lift is secured to the dock’s structure. The hole is covered back up again until the lift is needed.

There were several reasons to modify the equipment to make the lift more stationary and portable.

“An important component of this is we didn’t want something permanently mounted on the docks,” said Blank. “For several reasons, but the top two…There is heavy demand for all the real estate down on the docks, and we didn’t want to give up 16 square feet of it for a purpose that might only lightly be used. And secondly, you can see that the device itself can be considered an attractive nuisance, and when the facility is closed, we don’t necessarily close off access to the docks, and we really need to limit the city’s liability from people misusing it.”

Blank said that now the initial modifications have been made, if the lift needs to be used in additional spots on the dock it is an easy process to have other parts of the dock modified for use.

The lift is stored in the harbor department office and is available upon request; ideally, there should be a 24-hour notice before using the lift, but Blank is pretty confident that they can get it out within 30 minutes.

The lift is available for public use upon request from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. every day.

To request use of the lift, visitors can call the harbor department at 949-270-8159 or email harbormaster@newportbeachca.gov.

Blank and other harbor department employees gave a demonstration on the use of the lift and a step-by-step lesson on safe practices.

Welcome to the Hotel Playa Ensenada By: KATHERINE M. CLEMENTS

ENSENADA— Hotel Playa Ensenada’s story began in 1924 when a group of entrepreneurs formed the Ensenada Beach Club, S. A., in Baja California to create the resort. This enterprise was founded in Mexico to capitalize on the profits made along the border during the prohibition in the U.S.; alcohol remained legal in Mexico during this time.

Between 1919 and 1933, many people had invested in casinos, hotels, brothels, and saloons south of the border where liquor was easy to obtain, buy, and sell. Ensenada was chosen for the site of the new beach club because of its competitive location 65 miles south of Tijuana and Mexicali. In 1928, the American professional boxer Jack Dempsey, once a world heavyweight champion, became the public face of Hotel Playa Ensenada which sold itself as a place to enjoy sportfishing, hunting, and beach activities.

By June 1, 1924, the beach club was comprised of 100 founding members, plus an advisory council of 10 members.

As a first step to ensure the success of the future hotel, investors arranged for transportation to get tourists from California to Ensenada.

The club requested the services of a Los Angeles-based California Marine Transportation Company to autho-

rize exclusive rates for passengers who wanted to go to Ensenada in the company’s steamers. In August 1924, the ocean transport company agreed to this and set a special rate for travel to Ensenada.

After establishing the agreement for the transfer of passengers by sea, members of the Ensenada Beach Club approached the Douglas Aircraft Company based in Santa Monica. Due to the great success that the American aeronautical industry was having, airplanes being an attractive and novel means of transportation, it was decided that the company would be ideal for carrying tourists to Baja California.

able economic benefits to the Mexican federal, state, and municipal governments since, among other things, it was stipulated in the contract that the Ensenada Improvement Company (EIC) would pay 25 percent tax on the profits collected in the hotel for the license of games and sports authorized. This percentage would be divided as follows:  10 percent to the federal government  10 percent to the state government  5 percent to the municipal government In addition, the municipal government of Ensenada would be paid the taxes due to operating in this locality.

By 1930, the stock market crash had given way to the Great Depression, resulting in the bubble burst for the investors of the Playa Ensenada. As a result, the hotel could not draw large crowds of tourists to Ensenada, nor could they get much press attention, unlike Agua Caliente. It is said of the Playa Ensenada enterprise that “Jack Dempsey and Gene Normile backed by way of seeking to outdo the famous Caliente hotel [was a failure because] after a lavish opening to eclipse all openings, the crowds failed to come over the sometimes-labyrinthime old road and Dempsey and Normile gave up the ghost within the first year,” according to sandiegohistory.org.

The 36th America’s Cup in March 2021 was the latest staging of the America’s Cup yacht race. The 37th America’s Cup will be raced between a yacht representing the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron and a yacht representing the yacht club that wins the Challenger Selection Series (Prada Cup). It will be held in Barcelona, Spain, in September and October 2024.

New News About the America’s Cup, Sail Canada, and The Ocean Race By: KATHERINE M. CLEMENTS

The 2024 America’s Cup is on the horizon as North America begins its 2022 sailing season, but things are starting to progress for the 37th Defense, The Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron.

While some question marks remain, it is guaranteed that Emirates Team New Zealand (ETNZ) and the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron are set to compete for the Auld Mug on the waters of Barcelona, Spain, in September or October 2024 using AC75 foiling monohulls.

Not surprisingly, America’s Cup 37 has already attracted stiff challengers, including Alinghi Red Bull Racing, INEOS Britannia, the Luna Rossa Prada Pirelli

Team, and American Magic.

While these are all serious competitors, the New York Yacht Club’s American Magic made headlines in early May when the team announced that Olympic gold medalist and multi-class world champion sailor Tom Slingsby (AUS) had signed on to the American-flagged team, joining Paul Goodison (GBR) as a driver for the American boat.

“I’m extremely excited to return to the America’s Cup arena,” said Slingsby in an official team press release from May 3.

“The AC75s are remarkable craft, and I look forward to doing whatever I can to help our team in their quest to bring the trophy back to the United States and the

New York Yacht Club. We’ve got worldclass talent onboard the boat and backing us on the shore; I’m proud and excited to be a part of it.”

Slingsby was part of Oracle Team USA’s stunning juggernaut victory over ETNZ on the waters of San Francisco Bay in 2013, and he was also part of the same team’s unsuccessful defense in Bermudian waters in 2017.

More recently, Slingsby led his Australia SailGP Team to season titles in SailGP’s Season 1 and Season 2, the latter of which was recently determined on San Francisco Bay. Team placements for American Magic

have yet to be decided, and with two world-class helmsmen, the team’s strategy is up in the air.

“Having Tom and Paul Goodison, both Olympic Gold Medalists and world champions, driving our AC75 gives us a great competitive position,” said Hap Fauth, one of the team’s founders, in the release. “They are fierce competitors who win at the highest level of sailing. Combine this with the world-class team we are building, and I am thrilled with our prospects.”

The 37th America’s Cup will be held in September and October of 2024 in Barcelona, Spain.

Arm the Galley!

Ahoy Sailors, now that you’ve learned the most efficient way to stock and structure your galley, let’s talk about the best ways to incorporate safety features in your galley that will combat the strongest of waves. Stay tuned for your next lesson which will construct a sailing checklist that accounts for sailing essentials and designated roles for the crew.

By: KATHERINE CLEMENTS

Grab Rails and Handles When it comes to the boat galley, you need to enter with caution. One of the biggest threats to a cook at sea is the prospect of being tossed across the galley. One of the best ways to prevent this from happening is by having handles and grab-rails within reach; some prefer tether systems. The debate will likely continue through eternity, but most long-term cruisers prefer handles and grab-rails as it keeps them mobile in case of emergency.

with two burners. Three burner stoves tend to be too crowded and offer more opportunities for pots and pans to slide, collide, and fall off the stove. Also, at sea, you’ll always want to use a fiddle, what some sailors call pot restraints.

They generally have metal bars that screw into each side of the stove and “hug” a pan on a burner. You loosen the knob slightly to swing the bars into the correct position, then tighten the knob back down so that the pot doesn’t slide with the boat’s motion.

These will help keep pots secure if your boat starts a-rockin’.

A galley can become an explosion of cups, plates, glasses, and food when seas become choppy. From dishware to a galley layout, here are tons of tips to keep your galley secure, prevent you from hurting yourself, and keep your belongings safe while cooking out at sea.

damp paper towel can also help.

Never put anything behind the stove that you might want to use when a burner is lit or when there is a hot pan on the stove!

If you’re wearing a top with sleeves,

a sleeve can catch fire if it comes too close to a lit burner.

Steam from a boiling pan can burn your arm while you’re reaching.

If the boat moves as you’re reaching across, you can fall into a hot pan possibly burning yourself where you contact the pan, the burner itself, or knocking hot food. Just because you’re in a calm anchorage doesn’t mean the boat won’t roll when another boat, or Jet Ski, passes by.

Turning the burner off before reaching across doesn’t eliminate the risk, as the hot pans are still there.

If you have the option, install a stove

If your boat finds a groovy motion while you’re cooking, it’s wise to wear protective clothing and aprons if the unfortunate situation arises where splashing and spilling occur.

It is helpful to have a galley strap on board. If you have a U-shaped galley, you can place a strap across the opening. While it won’t hold you in one place, it will keep you from being thrown 6 feet or more, and you can move around the galley and get out of the way of spills if need be. In addition, it will prevent you from being thrown into your hot, lit stove.

Non-skid padding is also a great idea to keep around. For those sailors who prefer ceramic plate wear because it retains heat and keeps your dinner warmer for longer, a non-skid pad can be beneficial when a not-so-smooth anchorage is in motion. If you don’t own a non-skid mat and you’re reading this out at sea, a

Sometimes plates can be a slippery surface for cutlery. Rimmed edges are your friend in the galley and anywhere else you want to eat on your boat. Pie tins work great and offer a small barrier, so your fork and knife don’t slide off your dish.

This tip might upset you, but here it is.

Wine glasses and other stemmed glassware were not designed for sailing. It is always best to use a rocks glass or even a lidded mason jar when enjoying a beverage. It is self-explanatory, and I’m sorry to bear this bad news.

Installing a spring latch on your pantry doors will lock the door in place while you need it open and will stop the door from smashing back into you. It’s also good to install swing latches on the door and door frame as a backup lock in case the door lock doesn’t hold up against

rough waters.

This next tip isn’t about safety, but it is helpful. When buying equipment for your galley, whether it be coffee mugs, the screws you’re using, or your water faucet, stainless steel will last the longest without rusting. Likewise, avoid metals such as chrome or iron because they are susceptible to rusting faster.

Lastly, one more non-safety galley tip is to own the Cruising Chef Cookbook by Michael Greenwald is a bestselling, extensive sailors’ cookbook. Seasoned overnight sailors consider it essential equipment. The new Cruising Chef is a book of nautical wisdom in the disguise of a cookbook. It contains hundreds of tips plus more than 300 recipes. The cookbook includes an extensive discussion of preparing for a voyage and resupplying in native markets. “Special Cooking Techniques” describes pressure cooking, stir-frying, grilling, and handy techniques for the galley chef.

DANA POINT— “Always a good time with @cml_jigs!” said a May 16

Facebook post from Fury Sportfishing out of Dana Wharf. “A nice Halibut, two Chunky Yellowtail and a kayak were today’s highlight along with 77 Bonito, 53 Whitefish, 16 Calico Bass, 4 Sheephead, and 1 Triggerfish.” A kayak is a weird catch but check out those yellow tail! Looking good for summer!

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA FISHING NEWS

Fish and play the senior angler way.

By: JORDAN B. DARLING ESCONDIDO — On May 13, the Senior Anglers of Escondido welcomed members back after a two-year hiatus from COVID-19.

The Senior Anglers of Escondido are a recreational fishing club out of Escondido that gathers together to share a love of fishing, camping, and the great outdoors.

The club has been around since 1975 and is comprised of members over the age of 50 who have an interest in fishing, whatever their skill level.

The club meets on the second Friday of every month to hear from speakers and plan for their next adventure. In addition, they participate in fishing tournaments, picnics, and good old-fashioned hangouts throughout the year with lots of good conversation, company, and of course, food.

“We are a fishing club, primarily freshwater, but we do saltwater as well,” said Public Relations Officer Ken Harrison.

“We have surf fishing tournaments, and we do charters several times a year. But the other main component is we are a camping RV club.”

The club holds several fishing events throughout the year ranging from saltwater shore fishing to getting out to try different freshwater spots, all looking to

make the best record for the club.

The camping component lets anglers get away from the coast for camping trips a couple of times a year to try different lakes for trout fishing and make lifelong friends by sharing incredible memories.

For Harrison, one of his favorites is from a group trip to June Lake that had everyone on the trip reaching their trout limit in only a couple of hours.

“All of us, all 15 of us, limited out within two hours,” said Harrison. “…We couldn’t believe what we were pulling in.

It was one right after another after another. Everybody was catching fish, and it was really neat and just really special.”

The club accepts anglers of all skill levels, from novice anglers looking for a new adventure and experienced anglers looking to continue learning about their sport.

“We are very supportive,” said Harrison. “We get people who come out and say, ‘I’ve never fished before; what do I do?’

You know, we help them gear up and head out to the beach just for a couple of hours.”

Another club component that goes hand in hand with their fishing mandate is a speaker lineup with several experts coming in to give lectures on their expertise, from professional anglers who give their best tips to chefs who share their favorite secrets to prepping your catch.

During their May 13 meeting, the club heard from Bill Augustus, a park ranger for the San Diego County Department of Parks and Recreation’s Santa Ysabel Nature Center. Augustus has worked in the

Aside from their comradery, the club also looks to give back to the community through youth and community programs.

“We work with several different agencies to make sure that kids get to go fishing,” said Harrison. “We work with the Escondido YMCA; we have a day for them. We take them out, we get them a boat… and we provide all the tackle and lunch and that kind of stuff.”

The club also works with the city of Escondido to help run their fishing

tournaments by setting up ponds for the kids and providing a calibrated scale to weigh catches.

“It is about fishing, it is about fellowship, it is about fun, it is about family,” said Harrison. “… These people become lifelong friends, and that is not just something you create. It happens organically when you have people who are sharing the same love for their sport.”

The Senior Anglers of Escondido meet on the second Friday of every month at 9:30 a.m. at the Park Avenue Community Center. For more information, see the website at http://senioranglersofescondido.net.

The Groundfish Subcommittee of the Pacific Fishery Management Council’s (Pacific Council’s) Scientific and Statistical Committee (SSC) will hold a workshop to develop methods for constructing abundance indices based on hook-and-line (H&L) surveys June 21-23 from 8 a.m.to 5 p.m. each day.

“NMFS does an annual H&L survey for rockfish in the Southern California Bight,” said John DeVore, a NOAA affiliate in an email from May 11. “Three CPFVs (aka recreational fishing charter boats) and their skippers and crew are hired each year to fish select sites (nearshore and shelf reefs) in a systematic fashion. Onboard scientists record catch by species, physical conditions on the water, and collect biological samples (lengths. otoliths or ear bones used to age the fish, gonads for determining sex and maturity, etc.). These data are used in stock assessments.”

The SSC Groundfish Subcommittee also reviewed the Species Distribution Model in Template Model Builder. The workshop and methodology review meeting are open to the public.

A groundfish stock assessment is a statistical analysis of data from fisher-

ies, surveys, and oceanographic measurements, designed to inform the PFMC and NOAA on the abundance, productivity, and status (how healthy the population is with respect to theoretical limits of target abundance to maximize fish production) of a fish population. Estimates of all these life history attributes rely on construction of one or more relative abundance indices, which are constructed using catch-per-unit effort (CPUE) data of the species from surveys or, in some cases, from fisheries.

The SSC Groundfish Subcommittee’s meeting aims to develop methods and the best practices for constructing abundance indications based on hook-andline surveys in a workshop.

Recommendations of SSC Groundfish Subcommittee members will inform the 2023 Accepted Practices Guidelines for Stock Assessments, which is a compilation of guidelines for groundfish stock assessment scientists. In addition, the SSC Groundfish Subcommittee will review the Species Distribution Model in Template Model Builder (sdmTMB).

“The Species Distribution Model in Template Model Builder is a statistical model used to develop relative abundance indices used in stock assessments that better represent the spatial distri-

bution of the species,” said DeVore. “This website provides a technical descr iption of sdmTMB. It is designed for scientists who use the model and may not be all that helpful withThe SSC comprises scientists from state and federal out a strong statistics agencies, academic institutions, and other sources.

san diego fish report BLUEFIN TUNA CONTINUE TO HIGHLIGHT OFFSHORE FISHING

By Bob Vanian of 976Bite.com SAN DIEGO— The past several days has brought a welcome break in the unusually breezy spring weather Southern California has had in recent weeks. The good news for offshore fishing is that the bluefin tuna have bit well in both breezy and more pleasant weather conditions.



The past weekend had good fishable weather conditions and anglers traveling down to fish offshore banks outside of Ensenada found the best bluefin tuna fishing with the top catches at near limit to limit numbers of bluefin. The main productive areas were for boats fishing around and about the 238 Spot and the 450 Spot between 62 and 72 miles 168 to 170 degrees from Point Loma.



Closer to San Diego, there have been fair numbers of bluefin tuna biting and good numbers of kelp-paddy yellowtail biting for boats fishing spots within 40 miles or so of Point Loma such as the San Salvador Knoll, the 230 Spot, the Corner and the 43 Fathom Spot. Most of the fish in this more local sector have been coming from 27 to 42 miles 225 to 260 degrees from Point Loma.



The bluefin tuna have ranged in size from 20 to 265 pounds with some days seeing mostly 25 to 60-pound bluefin biting and with other days having it be mostly 60 to 150-pound bluefin biting.

The dark hours of a 24-hour day have been providing the best bluefin bites with some bluefin biting during daylight hours as well.



In the dark, bluefin have been biting best on knife jigs. Flat fall jigs and sinker rigged sardines have also been effective during the dark. During daylight hours, flat fall jigs, knife jigs, sinker rigged sardines, flylined sardines, Colt Snipers, poppers, and stick baits have been effective. Trolling has also produced a few bluefin during the daylight hours with spreader bar rigs, Halco plugs, and cedar plugs working best on the troll.



At Los Coronado Islands there have been a few boats with recent reports of surface fishing being hit or miss for a few yellowtail and fair fishing for calico bass. The bottom fishing remains good for a mix of reds, whitefish, salmon grouper, an assortment of rockfish and an occasional lingcod.

 Recent reports have found off-color water around Los Coronado Islands, Skippers expect that fishing for yellowtail and other surface fish species will improve once the water conditions improve. Most of the yellowtail activity has been found around North Island and at the Middle Grounds. Meter marks and spots of breezing fish have produced an occasional yellowtail on sardines or iron and there has also been an occasional yellowtail caught on a trolled Rapala.



Yellowtail around Los Coronado Islands have been ranging from 12 to 25 pounds. Try yo-yo iron and dropper loop fished sardines when you locate yellowtail down deep and try surface iron and flylined sardines when you locate yellows near the surface. Good choices for yo-yoed iron include Salas 6X and Salas 6X Jr. jigs in the blue and white color combination and in scrambled egg colors. Good choices for surface iron include Tady 45’s and Salas 7X lights in the blue and white color combination, mint and sardine colors.



There have been a few calico bass biting at kelp bed areas around South Island and the best zones for the bottom fish species have been around the Rockpile and at hard bottom areas to the north and the northwest of North Island. A good depth range for the bottom fish fishing has been 20 to 50 fathoms.



The fishing along the San Diego County coast has been good for a mix of calico bass, sand bass, reds, rockfish, sculpin, whitefish, and an occasional lingcod. Good news is that there has also been recent improvement in the coastal fishing for yellowtail, white seabass, and halibut.



The upper end of La Jolla has been the best zone to try for a yellowtail along the San Diego County coast. The yellowtail biting at La Jolla have been good-sized fish with a good percentage being up in the 20 to 40-pound range. A recent afternoon half day trip aboard the New Seaforth out of Seaforth Sportfishing had a catch that included 4 yellowtail up to to 44 pounds.
