Community Development Department,
Kodiak Island Borough
Dear Bob,
With regard to a memo explaining the currently adopted Residential Building Code
requirements about engineering homes,I guess die best place to start is with the
information the adoption committee reviewed in the nine meetings held prior to making
the recommendation to adopt to the Assembly.
Exhibit A is 7 pages and is the document layin8 Out the step by step process for design
requirements for the 2012 IRC.The first paragraph of page two is in reference to the code
section that allows non-engineered design,IRC section R301.2.2.1.2,paragraph 2,
referenced on page 4 of 7,exhibit A.
Exhibit B is 10 pages and is the package of information trying to use the method
referenced in IRC section R301.2.2.1.2,paragraph 1,referenced on page 4 of 7,exhibit
A.This was the Building Departments attempt at allowing an additional method for
contractors to design buildings out engineering as described in pages I and 2 of
exhibit B.The end result of this exercise was the engineer's calculations determined it
was not possible with this method.
We have received feed back in the Building Department that there is concern about the
requirements for engineering causing a lack of affordable housing.We do not believe this
to be a factual statement based on the following example.A local contractor built his
mother a home,it is two bedrooms, 1,080 S/F home with a 368 S/F attached garage,
placed on a RI lot of 10,306 S/F.Just what the industry would consider a starter home.
This home sold to the mother for$280,000,but appraised for$305,000.Nice of the son
to give his mom a deal!The engineering on this home was$1,800.00,which is 0.59016%
of the appraised price.This same contractor has another home under contract,a slightly
larger two story unit and using a different engineer for design has said the engineering on
I

AGENDA ITEM #2.b.
that project is$2,000.00.We are aware of$5,000.00 engineering bills for new homes but
these homes are typically much larger than what would be considered a starter home.So
it does not appear that engineering is a significant cost to building a starter(affordable)
home.
Under the previously adopted Building Code we saw approximately 50%of the new
houses being built either being Mly engineered or partially engineered because they
could not be constructed under prescriptive design methods in a 1997 Uniform Building
Code.
Kodiak Island has eight know faults,six of which are in the Narrow Cape area,ref,
Sauber and Team study seismic risk near Alaska launch facility 112003,and if you are a
believer in a theory that global warming will bring more severe weather,why would
you want to eliminate engineering for one and two family homes.
The Building Department is astonished that the Assembly would feel the need to
arbitrarily reduce the safety factor of a home just on the grounds that a lower income
family would be purchasing it,and that be their public legacy for generations to come.
In closing the 2012 I RC does have a method fora Rome Designer to build a one or two
family home via a prescriptive method;it was discussed as an option during the Code
adoption hearings.The opinion of a Building Department was that this method would
not see much use since it would require the purchase of a 2012 Residential Building
Code,the 2012 Wood Framed Construction ual and require sometime of the
designer.And at the time of the discussion the Building Department was unaware of any
Contractor in town owning a copy of the 1997 UBC,so they probably were not going to
buy a copy of the 20121C,they would go the easier but more costly route and use an
engineer for design.Since adopting the 2012 I C,one building code has been purchased
from the Building Department and it was not by a contractor who regularly builds
residential construction.
Sincerely,
Yd aHans?e

Wind and Seismic prescriptive design requirements per the 2012
International esi tip l Code for light-frame construction.
Wind: e .
The Kodak Island Road System falls within the area required by the 2012 I C to have
wind design per figure R301.2(4)B.
Due to the high wind designation the 2012 I C allows the AF&PA Wood e
Construction Manual 2012 )or the ICC Standard for Residential Construction in
High-Wind Rgions ICC 600-08 o be used for prescriptive design per R3 01.2.1.1.
The[CC 600-011 provides prescriptive design for a foundation and stem wall of concrete
construction in B and C wind exposure categories with limitations on the height of the
stem wall being three feet from grade to top of wall per 104.4.
The[CC 600-08 references the VvTMC for design of the above foundation structure per
303.1.
The WFCM 2012 uses a new basic wind speed based on a 700 year return period -
second gust which for Kodiak laces our wind speed at 160 MPH,ref.Figure 1.1.
Prescriptive design requirements of the WFCM limit wind exposure categories to B and
C per 3.1°1.
Seismic:
The Kodak Island Load System is a seismic design category E per the 2012 T C
01.2.201 and Figure 01.2(2)based on soil site class D.
The 2012 IRC allows for an alternate determination of seismic design category per
01.2.2.1.1.This method rases the IBC to lower the seismic design category to D2 based
on a site specific soil classification.

The 2012 IRC does have asecond alternative which places additional restrictions on the
building's construction allowing construction under the IRC.
The WFCM requires the seismic design category to be below E to be utilized for wind
design.

Dear Glenn,
Currently the Building Department is working with our local code adoption board in
adopting a new residential building code and it seems we need the expertise of
engineer to continue with the process.
Currently the City of Kodiak the Kodiak Island o have adopted the 1997 UBC
as the building code governing the construction of one and two family dwellings and we
are contemplating adoption of the 2012 IRC to replace the 1997 UBC.The issue at hand
is changes in how the 2012 IRC deals with wind and seismic compared to the 1997 UBC.
Because of our 's high wind the IRC requires designers to use another method for
prescriptive design,The methods referenced are AF&FP Wood a Construction
Manual 2012 C or the ICC standard for residential construction in igh-Wind
Regions 2008 OCC 600).
The WFMC has applicability limitations for seismic loads and to allow its use in
prescriptive design the seismic design category(SDC)must be D2 or lower and this
limitation would carry to the[CC 600 as it references the WFMC for framing design,The
IRC places the road system of Kodiak in SDC,E but allows for an alternate
determination of seismic design category,utilizing section 1613 of the 2012 IBC.This is

AGENDA ITEM #2.b.
Generally most site preparation for foundations on one and two family dwellings is the
contractor digging to solid shale then backfill and compaction with gravel of a few feet in
depth.Occasionally the site is glacial till and excavation would be a minimum of three
feet in depth then backfill and compaction with gravel of a few feet in depth.
Our hope is to open up additional methods of prescriptive design that the Contractors can
use. If it is not possihie to reclassify to SDC,D2 and the IRC is adopted then the design
of any one or two family dwelling will be restricted to the requirements of 01.2.2.2.2

ASSEMBLY REGULAR MEETING
TITLE: Resolution No. FY2016-13 Supporting Negotiations Between the Borough and

FISCAL IMPACT: No FUNDS AVAILABLE:
Account Number. Amount Budgeted:
SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The Kodiak Island Borough has been provided an opportunity to sponsor a conservation
easement on a large parcel of land in private ownership commonly referred to as Termination
Point.As described in the attached backup material(previously presented to the Assembly at
the work session on September 10,2015),the purpose of the easement would be to preserve
certain habitat values for species that were injured during the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill,The
easement would restrict development of the land,but would allow certain traditional uses for
the land owner,An additional benefit the easement would provide is the creation of public
access on these lands.
Negotiations between the sponsor(Kodiak Island Borough)and land owner(Leisnoi, Inc.)
would be facilitated by the Great Land Trust which has a great deal of experience in these
matters.This facilitation would include determining the value of the easement and presenting
the easement to the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council for approval and funding. It is not
expected that the management of easement land at Termination Point will have a substantial
impact on the borough budget or risk management liability.
This resolution was introduced on October 1 and postponed by the Assembly to the October
15 meeting.
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
The motion before the Assembly is to adopt Resolution No. FY2016-13.

Kodiak Island Borough Regular Meeting,October 1.2015
Overview
Great Land Trust(GILT)is working with the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill(EVOS)Trustee Council to
Identify and complete habitat conservation projects that benefit resources that were injured as a
result of the oil spill.Through a priorilizalion process GLT Identified land within the oil spill area
that is a high priority for conservation.,Among the high priority areas are Long Island and
Termination Point-lands owned by Leisnoi,Inc.GLT has been working with Leisnoi.Inca since
2013 to negotiate the sale of conservation easements on these properties.The conservation
easements are recorded legal agreements that will restrict development,allow for public access
and transfer management responsibility to the holder of the easement.The underlying properly will
still be owned by Leisnoi,Inc.As the tee owner„Leisnoi„Inc,will retain certain rights,such as the
ability to install appropriate signage,maintain certain rights to archaeological sites and artifacts,
engage in subsistence activities„and maintain ownership of any potential carbon credit value To
bring these projects to completion„either the Stale of Alaska DNR or the Kodiak Island Borough
will need to accept the conservation easements and to manage the properties as parks or
protected areas.The acquisition will be funded by EVOS Trustee Council.Due to the sensitive
nature of land transactions with a private party some of the details may remain confidential.
Additional information will be presented to the public at EVOS Public Advisory Committee and

Long Island Project description
Long Island is located in the Gulf of Alaska off the northeastern coast of Kodiak Island The island
is approximately 6 air miles from the city of Kodiak and is adjacent to Woody Island.Long Island is
approximately 0.75 miles wide by 4 miles long and contains approximately 15.2 miles of coastline.
The coastline is characterized by steep,rocky cliffs and outcrops.Sitka spruce and grasses,
among other native plant species,sit atop the uplands.There are a number of freshwater ponds
and lakes of varying size on the island.There are two known harbor seal hauloul areas on Long
Island,Vera Bay and a site on the southeast point of the Island.Long Island serves other coastal
wildlife communities such as sea otters and binds identified by the EVOS Trustee Council as
Injured Species.
Long Island provides coastal forage areas,colony and nesting habitat for several species of sea
and shore binds,including:Pelagic Cormorants,Red-faced Cormorants, Glaucous-winged Gulls,
Black-legged Kittiwakes,Black Oystercatcher,ducks,and bald eagles.Fish and Wildlife Service's
National Wetlands Inventory map approximates 192.8 acres of wetland habitat within the parcel,
described as freshwater forestedlshrub wetlands,freshwater emergent wetlands,estuarine and
marine wetlands,estuarine and marine deepwater,and a number of freshwater lakes and ponds.
Kelp beds occur along the perimeter of Long Island,which provide a productive and dynamic
marine ecosystem.This continuous kelp provides important juvenile fish habitat that could bolster
Injured commercial„sport and subsistence fisheries„particularly salmon fisheries..
Long Island is currently uninhabited and has no residential or commercial facilities,but it has been
Inhabited in the past.The U.S.War Department acquired Long Island from the Bureau of Land
Management(BLM)in 1941 Fort Tidball„a World War II coastal defense installation,was
constructed between 1942 and 1943,and gun batteries were established on the island's eastern
coast at Deer Point and Castle Bluff The other operational areas were the Headquarter Complex,
Burl Point,the Garage Area,Point Head and North Cape.The fort was decommissioned in 1945
and abandoned in 1947 Long Island was returned to BLM jurisdiction in 1956 and eventually
reserved for Native selection under the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act(ANCSA) In 1971.
Long Island was transferred under ANCSA to Leisnoi„Inc.Remnants of the defense installation
are still present and visible on the Island.The U.S.Army Engineer District conducted site
Inspections and restoration activities on Long Island between 1986 and 2003.Abandoned roads
provide access for hiking on Long Island.

Termination Point Project Description
Termination Point parcel is located at the end of Monashka Bay Road near White Sands Beach,a
12 mile drive from Kodiak.The parcel is undeveloped and trailg leading to the parcel are
accessible via the road system.The Termination Point parcel contains approximately 4 miles of
convoluted shoreline that is characterized by rocky clilfs and protected beaches.The parcel consist
of rolling wooded uplands to an elevation of 500 feet.The uplands of the parcel are covered with
Sitka spruce and have an understory of shrubs and grasses.Termination Point serves coastal
wildlife communities such as sea otters and birds identified by the EVOS Trustee Council as
Injured species-
The productive intertidal area and the adjacent Narrow Strait are important feeding areas for
Marbled Murrelets and Pigeon Guillemots,as well as other manna birds.The mature Sitka spruce
forest of Termination Point otters prime nesting habitat for Marbled Murrelets,a species for which
recovery has been difficult to determine.A number of other Injured Species would benefit from
acquisition of the Termination Point parcel,,Including sea otters,Pelagic Cormorants,MUlitz's
Murdet,and Pigeon Guillemots.Conservation of the Termination Point parcel would provide
permanent habitat protection for these species and assist the EVOS Trustee Council in reaching
and maintaining its recovery objectives irnhe Kodiak Archipelago
The parcel would add another 1,080 acres to public lands in the area and contribute to recreation
and tounsm,which were identified by the EVOS Trustee Council as an Injured Service.The parcel
possesses high recreational qualities for the residents of Kodiak because of its proximity to town
and road access.The area is used by the public on a regular basis for both beach and existing
trail use and is popular with local hikers.
The property is at risk of being logged or subdivided,or both.Protection of this parcel will prevent
habitat loss and fragmentation and would ensure that residents of and visitors to Kodiak would
have access to a popular coastal recreational area.

To: Kodiak Island Borough Assembly, ]erroll Friend, Mayor
Through: Bill Roberts,Administrative Official
From: Duane Dvorak, Resource Management Officer
Date: October 6,2015
Re: Postponement of Resolution No. FY2016-13,supporting negotiations
between the Borough and Leisnoi Native Corporation to develop the
terms of a conservation easement for habitat preservation and public
access on land at Termination Point.
The assembly postponed action on the above reference resolution at the regular
meeting of October 1,2015. Assembly members had expressed questions about
the process and the implications of creating a conservation easement at
Termination Point. The assembly postponed action on the resolution in order to
provide an opportunity for Great Land Trust to respond to the questions that were
asked at the meeting.
Staff would also take this opportunity to provide additional information relevant to
the conservation easement discussion from a borough policy perspective, in order
to provide additional information for the assembly to consider. In preparing this
memorandum, staff has primarily relied upon the adopted 2008 KIB
Comprehensive Plan Update and the Kodiak Road System Trails Master Plan
(2011).
According to the comprehensive plan,the area at Termination Point is identified
for Conservation use. This is a policy designation; however in this case, it does
correspond to the C-Conservation zoning district standards which are currently
applied to the property. The zoning allows a variety of natural resource extractive
uses including timber harvest and mining. It also permits low density residential
(on a minimum size parcel of 5 acres), farming, lodges and other potential uses.

AGENDA ITEM #2.c.
Page 2 or2
According to the 2008 comprehensive plan, Leisnoi, Inc. owned 73,146 acres of
land at that time. Most of this land is located on the Kodiak road system. This
represents 1.6%of all borough uplands broken down by ownership percentage.
Only a few years ago,the Kodiak Island Borough and Leisnoi, Inc. were in
negotiations for a land trade or conservation easement that would have provided
for public access to Leisnoi lands along the road system. These discussions
included Termination Point,as well as Roslyn Beach, Silver Beach and the Olds
River. These are identified as high value recreation lands in the 2008 KIB
Comprehensive Plan Update which identified the lack of public access to these
areas as a potential issue going forward if Leisnoi were to fully assert their private
property ownership rights.
The plan also talks about the need to make more land available for residential
development, however no specific lands were identified and the reference to native
owned lands recognizes that native lands managed for shareholders might not ever
be developed. ANCSA lands are tax exempt until they are developed, so it is a
major decision for a native corporation to develop land. Once the lands become
taxable they cannot be undeveloped and returned to tax exempt status.
The 2008 KIB Comprehensive Plan Update recognizes that the native corporation
land owners in the Kodiak Island Borough have the wherewithal and governance to
manage their own lands. Each organization approaches this management
prerogative from the standpoint of their shareholder values and wishes. In this
regard, it is unusual for the local government to suggest that a private land owner
subordinate their wishes and landowner prerogatives for the sake of benefitting the
larger community. That is unless there is clear guidance in the adopted
comprehensive plan. In this case, there is no clear preference in adopted plans for
the future residential use of the Termination Point, or any suggestion that it should
be preserved for this purpose.
What is evident in the 2008 Comprehensive Plan, and is amplified and made
specific in the adopted 2011 Kodiak Road System Trails Master Plan, is that the
Termination Point area is a top priority for the acquisition of public access for
recreation purposes. Select pages from the cited plans are attached to this
memorandum for the assembly's consideration. A considerable amount of effort
went into these plans to gather public input and to craft policies, goals and
objectives that are reflective of the community's desires in this matter.

representatives to explore the possibility of the Kodiak Island Borough holding the

niMrWord
Elffudo&NUM, There have been several questions about what the role of GILT,the Kodiak island
D"EMitchell Borough,and Leisnol,Inc.would be If the Assembly were to ultimately approve holding
a conservation easement on Termination Point,with fee title being retained by LeIsnol,
Inc.GLT has negotiated over thirty conservation easements,many of which have
Involved public entities.Each conservation easement Is an Indlvidual contract between
Awdo QWma-0zd&an parties—this time between the Kodiak Island Borough and Leisnol,Inc.In order to be
cwwvwe;nor panwJff eligible for EVOS funding,the conservation easement would have to protect the
property in perpetuity from subdivision and other development,while allowing for
public access and trails. Although EVOS would have a role In approving the funding and
provides the basic framework for the conservation easement,the final details contained
in the conservation easement would be left in the hands of LeIsnol,Inc and the Kodlak
island Borough.
Tmi H*rm
LandstnMe As mentioned a have,at a min 1 mum the conservation easement would require that the
property be maintained In a natural state. In many of our past projects,local volunteers
CONTACT US or organizations assist with monitoring and upkeep of the property,which could lessen
Prt no%lot 272 the Kodiak Island Borough's costs related to the property.In our past projects,the
Ancharage,AK995nt management costs have been minimal,especially when the property Is adjacent to lands
already held by that entity,as is the case with Termination Point.
(9Q?)27fl-4"8
Several members of the Assembly have asked what will happen If the Assembly does not
approve Resolution FY2 OIG-13 at Its October 15,2015 meeting. This resolution Is
needed prior to the upcoming Trustee Council annual meeting on November 12,2015.
in order to get approval from the EVOS Trustee Council,we need to assure the Council
that we have an entity that is willing to consider holding the easement.Approval from

To;Kodiak Island Borough Assembly,Manager and Mayor
From:Kodiak Audubon Society
Rea Resolution for Termination Point Conservation Easement
Dear K10 Assembly members,KIB Manager,and JOB Mayor,
Please allow the u is process to continue by ass the resolution to enter Into
negotiations for a conservation easement for Termination Polar,
I am making comments on behalf of the Kodiak Audubon Society,founded in 1902 and the
oldest most active conservation organization in Kodiak currently with over 100 members.Our
fission Is to conserve Kodiales natural ecosystems focusing on birds,other wildlife,and their
habitats For the benefit and enjoyment of current and future generations.For over 20 years,we
have been strong advocates for hiking trails.We published our own,very popular"Kodiak
.Audubon's Hiking and Birding Guide"that we have been selling for 12 years that describes the
any wonderful trails accessible from our road system.wring the summer months,we promote
our Summer Puking Program where our volunteers lead free,guided hikes each Saturday an
Sunday from early June through August,
Our membership has long supported the preservation of Termination Point and the
acquisition of this important property from Leisnoi Inc by the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee
Council Habitat Restoration Funds Over the last 15+years we have circulated petitions that were
signed by hundreds of people when Termination Point was threatened. Now,before us is an
opportunity of a lifetime to permanently protect that area for the long-term benefit of the public
We don't understand the argument from some assembly members that they don't want to
"lock u 'any more land on our road system.The conservation easement opens the land to
everyone for recreational use,Because the land is presently privately owned,the landowner could
choose to close it to public access at any time.This has already happened In the past at Chinfak on
Leisnol Inc,land and other lands they own along our road system.One assembly member was
concerned that already much of our island is within the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge and why
would we want any more public land?As you know,we can't drive to the Kodiak National Wildlife
Refuge because it is not contiguous with our road system.Unlike Termination Point that is ri ht at
one and of our road system,you can only access the refuge lands via expensive travel by plane or
boat.That excludes most of the public from ever recreating there.
Leisnol Inc,has the right to earn income for their shareholders.It is unfair for t the borough
to restrict Lelsnol Inc.from developing their land the way they choose.In this case®they have
chosen to consider the terms of a conservation easement to be purchased with the funds from the
Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council Habitat Restoration fund.This choice is a win-win situation
for everyone.Lelsnol Inc.retains ownership of the land while generating income by not developing
or logging it The KIR maintains the status quo access for the people and under the caveats of the
EVOS Trustee Council agreement the pristine nature of the area and its natural resources are
preserved.

AGENDA ITEM #2.c.
I cannot stress hard enough at a unique piece of lan this is for public recreation,As you
know, ost of the land along our road system is privately owned. Besides Fort Abercrombie State
Park and the ear Island Parks,there are no other public lands on ur road to it developed
trails.The only other large parcel of public land is at the end oft the road at arro ape and that
also has access restrictions and has been heavily Impacted evelo eat of the Kodiak Launch
Complex.
Ifsome of the assembly a ers wonder why they haven't heard much from e public
about this,it is because most everyone thought this was such aria brainer,that naturally the
Borough o jump at the chance to manage the conservation easement an Insure public access
to one of the most beautiful places and popular hiking areas on the road system.
How ill you feel if you vote down the resolution to proceed with this once in lifetime
opportunity and 5 years down the road we are looking s at Termination oin Will you
really want that to be your legacy?Do you think e people who had the foresight and iso to
set aside Central Park In the middle of Manhattan In e York I 160 years ago would regret that
decision if they were alive today?
We encourageyou to move forward with the nextstep with a resolution to supportthe
acquisition oft the Termination Point property conservation easement while this offer is available.
With e expert el rte Great Land Trust brokering the easement agreement e ee the Exxon
Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council and Leisnol Inc.and amminE the costs and all the work for due
diligence,it would be a shame forte KIB to pass sip this unique o por u i for the good oft the
Kodiak ic.

Land is very valuable. Public access is valuable.Termination Point and Long Island are offered as GIFTS with the only
restriction being we don't trash them or turn around and sell them off, These gifts would last well beyond our

Leisno members thought long and hard about this.They recognize that the logging activity at Chiniak t very little

Re.An opportunity to have your"Cake and Eat it Too",
Mr.Mayor and Assembly Members
I am requesting that the KIB move forward with negotiations to hold the public
access easement that is offered by Lesnoi paid for by ES litigation funds. I see
this as an opportunity to"HAVE YOUR CAKE AND EAT IT TOO". There will e a
minor cost to the KIB to hold the easement and that can be identified In the process
of negotiations, For the Lesnoi shareholders and the publics recreational value of
the lands will be maintained. This has both esthetic and economic value to the
community. Having access to these temperate rain Forests adjacent to our
community will only make our growing tourist industry more attractive. For the
Lesnoi Corporation and its'shareholers receiving these funds will provide capital
for investment now and in the future that will benefit the economy of our
community.
1 understand in these times of reduced funds available to our State Government it is
prudent to be cautious of expenditures but urge you to try to bring the offered EVOS
funds Into our community and at the same time take advantage of maintaining and
improving the quality of life in our community.
Thanks You

Dear KIB Clerk,
Please share the following statement from Marion and Marty Owen with all N8 Assembly members.
Thank you!
We strongly recommend that the KIIIB Assembly support a resoluutiDn to allow the public Iprooess to proceed for the
conservation easements at tong Islam and Termination(point.
We believe the Assembly should move forward with negotiations and eventually assume management thus Protecting
these lands frurn deveOopment for future generations. This opportunity siuouu�d not be passed up w-the option is logging
which forever ruins the natiwral beauty and ecology of the land.
Please allow the fuoblio process to continual

Dear Members of the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly:
As a long time Kodiak citizen and Audubon hike leader I cherish the unspoiled mature and beauty of the Termination
Dint area.As a kayaker and naturalist I am well aware of the exceptional environmental d wildlife qualities of Lon
Island.
Therefore I strongly are the members of the Assembly to accept the unique and valuable offer by the administrators of
the on-Valdez settlement agency.
They offered to buy a conservation easement for natural restoration and recreational use of tee lands and thus
prevent destructive clear cutting of i ere
As I understand the deal,Lesnoi will remain the owner of the land but it will be saved for the enjoyment oft the wider
community If the borough accepts the management oft the land without Incurring further costs of full ownership or
usage fees for Leisnoi.
this deal seems too good to be passed up and such an opportunity ay never return,
Please vote for the preservation of Termination Point and Long Island.

Thanks,

Dear Kodiak Island Borough Assembly:
I encourage you to pass the resolution to enter into negotiations for a conservation easement for Termination
Point.
For many years,Kodiak residents have worked to preserve this area for recreation and protect it from
development,especially logging. Petitions with hundreds of signatures supporting EVOS acquisition of this
area have been sent to E in years past.
Community support has been focused on EVOS because this is the body who was regarded as having the funds
to acquire either outright title or a conservation easement to the area. I have not confi rmed this,but I believe
that the KIB Assembly has passed at least one resolution supporting the EVOS acquisition of this area for
habitat preservation. If you have not heard from the public as much as you think you should have,it is probably
because most folks,myself included,assumed(mistakenly)that you understood the strong local support for
preserving Termination Point.
As was the case for Shuyak Island State Park,support for preserving Termination Point for recreational use is
almost universal in our community.
There has been some misuse of the to "locked-Lip"in relation to land issues recently. Land That is open to
use by the public is not"locked-up";rather it is open for all to use-guaranteeing access is"unlocking" the land.
Private ownership of land which restricts usage by the general public is the correct definition of"locked-up". If
a landowner chooses to restrict or deny use of their land,then the land has been"locked-up." I feel that
charging fees for access and activities on privately owned land is a form of"locking up"that land because it
restricts access to those who can afford to pay the cost of access, If you have ever been to Scotland,you know
how large are of land and river banks have been effectively priced out of the common man's ability to afford
access. We cannot allow that happen here. A conservation easement for Termination Point creates universal
access at no charge.
In regard to other areas:
Long Island is accessible only by k nyak,boat,or plane-trot everyone on the road system can access it easily.
Page 66 of 124
Conservation Easement for Habitat Preservation and Public Ac...
AGENDA ITEM #2.c.
The Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge is not accessible from the road system and also requires boat or plane
access.It is not"at our doorstep"-it's quite a ways-away.
In fact®the only large block of public land on our road system is the Narrow Cape area and even that has access
restrictions thanks to the currently dormant Pacific Space Complex-Alaska.
Termination Point IS accessible to every person on the road system;users do not have to charter transportation
to enjoy this wonderful area or need anything more than a car or a ride from a friend to get there. any people
ride their bikes out to the trailhend.
The trails in this area have been used for decades-I first hiked there in 1987 and have hiked there many times
and in all seasons-almost always there are other people hiking in the area. This is an extremely popular and
well-used area. This one area has so many habitats and is so beautiful that most of us consider it the most
important place to show visitors. We must preserve it for our community.
Long considered the crown jewel in Kodiak hiking,I am surprised that the Assembly is not jumping at the
chance to preserve this area for use by local residents and visitors and prevent it in "locked-up"by the
current land owner.
Entering into negotiations requires no commitment on the part of the KIB and it is my understanding that the
purchase of the casement will not require KM funds. This is a win-win situation for our community and I
encourage you to move forward and pass the current resolution.
Sincerely,
Mike Sirofchuck

Hello,folks.
Patty and p would uld like to support the concept of a conservation easement for Termination Point. We
understand that Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council Habitat Restoration Fund will pay for the caseirnent.A.
recent chat with one of The Leisn of hoard(that I've known for a long titre)advised me that they would not
logged or developed,but would be presented in a natural strata once this action this is completed. We feel that
that is a great concept that should receive your full support. Our family has treasured that bit of woods for more
than 40 years,
As p can't ever unake a statement without a story.,I'll he brief......Recalling when Patty and the boys got lost
there 36 or so years ago.Our fp year old.son,Adam and 4yr.Arroia logically rationalized the situuuntion and lead
the quay hack to White Sand's 6eaeh, l was gouge"out west working and was very proud to learn latteir that
"the boys remembered Borne of tray survival stories"!.
The concept is a wain flair all;as folks that trda cure the area will have its continued use and Lelsnoi will be able to
irnvesu the money fair their members, probably most of which will trickle down into our eomrarrauunity in many
ways..
Thanks for your consideration and support. We really appreciate your hard work trying to balance the needs of
our community!

Subject- Termination Point Conservation Easement Resolution
Dear Mayor,Assembly Members and Borough Manager,
i would first like to Onink you for passing the resolution In support of negotiations over a conservation easement on
LongIsland, At the same time,I am deeply d1sappointed that you did not Include Terminakion IPointt in that resolution. I
urge Von to pass a similar resolution in support of negotiations over a consemallon easement for Termination Point.
My husband and I have Uved in Kodiak W 45 years,and we have spent many days hiking and exploring both the
Termination Point area and Long Island, We have been fearful for several years that these wonderful areas could be lost
tothepublic. Now is the opportunity to protect them for the use of the Kodiak cornimunky.
Along with many other people who fill led the conference room and hallway,I attended the assembly work session when
the 6 reat Land Trust irn ade their presentation and was pleased and excited that the discussion seemed so positive.
Many of us did not speak because several people had already elegantly done so,and we did not want to waste Assembly
members'firne with repetitive comments. Now It seems that we will all have to line up at assembly work sessions air
meetings and Individually testify,
After reading the article In our local newspaper,I am confused by assembly members'comments that were quoted.
Going ahead with negotiations to acquire conservation easement rights forTennination Point so the public can access
these areas seerns to me to be opening up land to the public that is currently privately owned. If this arrangement Balls
thraulgh,I have heard that logging will take place In the next few years because iLesnol will need to generate income,
I cannot believe that anyone an the Borough Assembly wants to be responsible W allowing the loss of this special area
for the people of Kodiak, Please,please seize this excellent opportunkyl
Respectfully submitted,
Randy Busch

I would like to encourage all of you to support the public process in continuing the conservation easement negotiations
forTerrnination Paint.As I understand it,the Borough would act as land managers and although Lelsnol would own the
land,if the easement is granted,Exxon would pay them to NOT develop it and the lead would be permanently
protected. Sounds like a win-win to rare. Since marry In Kodiak would enjoy accessing this area for hiking and recreation,
it would be to the advantage of our whole community to preserve its natural beauty for today and future generations.
Please consider the importance of this vote as I can only assume Lelsnol will consider logging It,unless they are paid not
to lo& It would be a shame if we allowed this pristine wilderness,close to the city,to be stripped bare similar to C iniak,
Thank you for your consideration on this Issue.

Dear Mayor,Assembly Members and Borough Manager,
After attending the work session when Lesnoi and the Great Land Trust presented their willingness to work together
with the Kodiak Island Borough to create conservation easements on Long Island and Termination Point,I thought that
the comments from Assembly members were mostly quite positive. I am surprised that the recently passed resolution
only includes Long Island and cannot believe that there is any hesitation about doing the same for Termination Point.
This is a win-win situation. There is money available from EVOS to purchase the easement,Lesnoi can realize some
profit from their land without having to log it like In Chiniak,and the people of Kodiak will have two of the most loved
recreational areas protected for our residents,visitors and their descendants.
Don't be the Borough Assembly that let this chance go.Please pass a resolution in favor of negotiating a conservation
easement for Termination Point.
Sincerely,

Dear Borough Clerk,Borough Manager and Borough Assembly,
My very first hike on Kodiak Island was to Termination Point in 1996.1 was in awe of the beautiful overlooks,
beaches,wildflowers,dense forest,moss,giant Devil's Club,signs of wildlife and also the people that I
encountered on the trail. Anyone 1 met on the trail greeted me with a welcome smile as they themselves were
also having a wonderful experience. It continues today to be one of my favorite hiking areas. For example,it
is where I chose to hike on my birthday this year with my friends and family. I usually always encounter
people when I'm hiking to or in the area of Termination Point.Most other hikes I go on it is rare to see
others. This is a testament to how popular this area is for recreation for community members.
I was surprised to hear that some members of the assembly are opposed to the incredible opportunity to
secure a conservation easement for this area. I feel this conservation easement is a win win.
The community of Kodiak cherishes this beautiful location as a destination for hiking,camping,exploring and
more. The Borough has the opportunity to gain access to this land for the community thus securing it for our
enjoyment and at no cost to the Borough.This private land is Lesnoi's and as a corporation I'm sure they have
goals to make money for their shareholders. Lesnoi would have the opportunity to receive payment for
providing this access(with payment provided by the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee Council Habitat Restoration
funds). Other positive outcomes: Lesnoi may benefit from some positive publicity in the community by
opening up this land to the public;this cherished area can be protected from a potential timber harvest like
we've seen in Chiniak;people can recreate on this land without worrying about getting or not having a permit.
This opportunity for a conservation easement is something to celebrate! Please I ask you to embrace this gift
that is being handed to us. I don't mean to sound dramatic,this is how I truly feel. Please don't let this slip
through our fingers. It would be a tremendous loss.I'm asking you to support the resolution to allow the
public process to proceed for the conservation easement that is being negotiated.
Unfortunately I will be in Anchorage for work on Thursday and will be unable to attend the Borough Assembly
meeting to share my opinion. I wish I could be there in person.Lastly, I would like to offer that if any of you

The McFarland Family is in total support of the resolution to allow the public process to proceed for the
conservation easement that is currently being negotiated. This area has a long history of low impact community
use and public access.The resolution before you is a quality of life issue for the residents
of Kodiak. The revenue that the Borough may or may not get from future development should not cloud
the fact that there are some areas on Kodiak Island not to be disturbed and Termination Point is one of
those areas.
Again,we are urging the representatives of the people of Kodiak to support this resolution.Thank you for your
sincere consideration.

Dear Kodiak Island Borough Mayor,KIB clerk and manager,and KIB Assembly Members,
I am writing to request that you vote to continue the negotiations to form a long term land use easement on the
Termination Point land parcel.Although the upcoming vote In 10/15 doesn't guarantee a long term use easement,it is a
step in the right direction.
I believe this land should be conserved so that the community of Kodiak will continue to be able access and enjoy it's
natural beauty.As others have mentioned,Termination Point was cited as the single most important land for obtaining
public access rights by the 2011 Kodiak Area Master Tralls plan,based on numerous public meetings and many hours of
public testimony.So,I ask you again to please vote to continue these negotiations for the benefit of the Kodiak
community.
Thank you and sincerely,

Dear Borough Assembly Members
I write to urge you to support the process that will give the Borough and the people of Kodiak the assurance that a
beautiful parcel of land and an important recreation area will be forever protected from the kind of development that
would likely leave it looking like logged areas in Chiniak.This process costs the borough and the Kodiak taxpayer nothing,
either now or in the future.Such opportunities don't present themselves often.Please don't let this one slip away.
While I support the need for the Borough to be active in helping make more land available for private development,
Termination Point is not a good candidate.
Thank You for your consideration. Don Zimmerman

Subject Resolution FY2016.13 Termination Point Easement Negotiations
Dear Borough Assembly Members;
Please vote to allow the public process to continue on the conservation easement negotiations for Termination
Point.It is my understanding that the easement would be completely paid for by Exxon Valdez Oil Spill Trustee
Council Habitat Restoration funds and that Resolution FY2016-13 is a non-binding document.This resolution
states that the borough will agree to discuss and negotiate the terms of an easement and that the borough could
decline to hold the easement at any time prior to signing the final agreement.This is a necessary step in the
process toward making a decision on the fate of Termination Point,not a final decision.
Public beach and trail access are very important to both Kodiak residents and tourism. Many of the trails along
the Kodiak road system are extremely challenging,and Termination Point is one of the few trails older and/or
less experienced hikers can enjoy! Please take this first step to possibly prevent the beautiful spruce forest in
that area from being cut down like those on Lesnoi land out in Chinink.
Thank you for your time and consideration,

Dear Assemblymembers
After hearing and reading about some of the controversy surrounding the Kodiak Island Borough resolution regarding Termination Point,I
would like to urge assemblymembers to vote in favor of pursuing negotiations with Lesnoi Inc.and Great Land Trust
It seems the only valid issue is whether the community supports access to wilderness.Most other arguments I've heard against a borough-
supported easement appear rife in misinformation.
Instead of dwelling In the myths.I'd like to focus on why I appreciate Termination Point-In wintertime when the ground is firrn it's my favorite
place to run or take my young kids on a hike.Living in Monashka,it has a feeling of being an extension of my backyard and Is easily accessible
for my entire family,even our aging dog.Over the years.I've casually stumbled upon various Boy Scout troops setting up camp,awkwardly
encountered Navy SEALs in training(I was lost),competed in navigational fool-races(I wasn't lost),witnessed a sow and cubs grazing ng—
thankfully with a valley to buffer us—and logged my name into the guestbDok of the now-decrepit Monashka Say Inn Termination Point is
without a doubt a campus for outdoorsmen.
I would like to ask the assemblymembers whether they have had the pleasure of truly experiencing Termination Point land.It not,please do.To
see this land used for anything other than passive recreational use is devastating to our children,already battling a nature deficit.This natural
and culturally significant land is worthy of preserving

Dear Borough Assembly Members,
Compared to most—I'm a fairly'new'resident to Kodiak; 1®5 years and counting. In that 1.5 years,my little
family has spent any weekend days hiking the lush trails and wildemess encompassing our Emerald Isle.
Termination Point,being one of the lengthier day hikes,has topped our most favorite list.The pristine views,
natural habitat and recreational value,makes this out of to (but still close enough)area unique to many of us.
Please consider the public's strong and worthy desire to keep Termination Point within the conservation
casement. It would be devastating to our community,tourists and future generations should this land succumb
tot same envirorunental issues surrounding Chiniak, Please ensure the public's interest,Termination Point's
habitat should forever remain Qqdevelopcd and RM§Lerved.
Thank you,

October,2015
Dear Borough Assembly Members,
I urge you o fully support the negotiations process with Lesnol and the Land Trust regarding a conservation
easement and KIB development rights fort the Termination Point land tract..Similar to our Investment In the
bike trail,the conservation easement is a quality of life issue for present and future residents of the Borough.
Approving the negotiations with Lesnoi by the Land Trust Is in line with the Borough's Comprehensive Plan.
One need only research the input to committees,volunteering, ulic surveys used for the Comprehensive
Plata;and artici ation data from Island Trails Network work,Audubon,other Kodiak groups to know that a
majority of your citizens support this process,This Is the nature of Island living,one that makes life here
unique,diversified,and collaborative.
To miss this opportunity to guide any future development oft the lands'natural resources Is not In the best
Interest of the Borough and the citizens that you represent.Don't let Lesnoi or another corporate interest
eke decisions on resource development fort is historical area,which has been historically accessed by first
peoples and those o followed for years and years.Just take a look at the destruction around Chiniak and on
Afognak island if you need a reminder of the practices of corporate development and the actions of non-
Korflaklans who harvest our natural resources.
I believe that it is is uI a to consider the Termination property as a potential site for housing,taxable
residential property,or business development location.The topography,lack of ater either through ells or
a water system, let alone dealing with sewage and wastewater makes the cost of Infrastructure development
prohibitive.Only the top 1 of residents could afford such location;and l believe adding the cost of well
drilling,roads,electricity,and septic systems would narrow the number of those who might be Interested in
an "ocean view"so far from town and services.
'thank you for your service on the Assembly and for listening to my comments.Please allow the negotiations
to continue for the Termination Point Conservation Easement,as well as the public process,In which so many
residents of Kodiak island have already participated

Termination Land Conservation Easement
I urge you to fully support the agreement and
support the development rights being held by
the borough.Similar to our Investment in the bike trail, the conservation
easement Is a quality of life issue for present and future residents of the
Borough.Approving the negotiations with Les by tee, Trust,
is is supported by the Comprehensive Plan and supported by a
majority of citizens through their input in the Comprehensive plan.To
miss this opportunity to guide any development of Natural resources in
the
best interest of the citizens of Kodiak Island. Don't
let Les or another corporate interest make
decisions for a historical and historically used piece of Kodiak's beauty.
Take a look at the destruction around Chinlak and on Afognak Island if
you need a reminder of the corporate interests and actions of non-
Kodialdans.
I believe that it Is misguided to
consider the Termination property as a potential site for housing,
taxable property, or development.
The topography, lack of water either through wells or a water system,
let alone dealing with sewage and wastewater makes the cost of
infrastructure development prohibitive.Only the top 1% of residents
could afford such a location,and I believe adding the cost of well drilling
and septic systems would narrow the number of those who might be
interested in an ocean view so far from town.
The Borough has yet to support bringing
up to code the roads lived on which we residents of Mona Bay
reside.We on Sisters and Marmot pay the highest Road Service Fees and
the highest Mill Rate in Kodiak;yet we cannot adequately fund
minimum improvements that these roads continually require. The roads
that was never built to code,are comprised of waste, tree stumps, and
fill that builders and contractors dumped and smoothed over.The
Borough's refusal to do right by the residents is ludicrous.
Thank you for your service on the Assembly and
For listening to my comments. Please allow the

Thank you to all our assembly members for their time and energy,and for being willing to look at the opportunity to
secure an easement at Termination Point.You are sure to have any comments to hear tonight so I will present my
thoughts simply:Termination Point is special to me because it is such a perfect balance or beauty,wildness,and
accessibility. To me,that natural beauty and wildness is what makes Kodiak so wonderful.If we start letting go of these
beloved places,we start letting go of the quality of life that makes Kodiak worth calling home.Thank you,Erin Starr-

I was bom in Kodiak and love every in oft is island.Termination Point is a perfect example of the beauty or
Kodiak,if we begin to loose places he everyone enjoys,knows,and loves,what do we really have left?The
reason Kodiak is such a great place is because of the nature.The bears,fish,gorgeous mountains,trails,lakes,
animals,and more are what make Kodiak what it is.Places like Termination Point are important to the island

crew?
c. Should a program allocate catch shares to community
entities?
3. What are the effects of elements regarding duration and
transferability of harvest control rights?
4. The proposed program includes elements and options designed
for community protection: consolidation levels for harvesters and
processors, regional and port delivery requirements, community

The discussion Focused on whether catch shares(fishery rights)of f
target species and/or bycatch species should be allocated,and,if so,
why,to whom and on what basis.Some participants felt that a catch u!
share program with allocations based on historical participation,
accessed through cooperatives,was the best form of management.
Others opposed allocation of catch shares.Some believed that if catch ru'
shares are allocated,that a community entity or entities should be the
holders of some or all of the shares,in order to achieve community
goals.
d
Bonney suggested that a new cooperative management program for
groundfish trawl fisheries could result in increasing the number of fish !'
crossing the docks in Kodiak,by increasing the harvest of under-utilized
species,thus benefitting harvesters,processors and community. We Y
want harvesting and processing to be successful.

Peterson said that the new program should decrease bycatch caps for
halibut and salmon.She believes that a catch share program should look
at Individual Bycatch quota(IBQ),which could address issues in the
state water fisheries,where state law prohibits allocation of target
species.
Krueger wanted the community to realize that trawlers are trying to
harvest target species without exceeding bycatch caps.He said they
want to focus on the positive aspects of a catch share program,by I
reducing Prohibited Species Catch[PSC)in the pollock and cod fisheries
so they have some left to allow harvest of other species.
Chandler said the current rockfish program is an example of a
successful catch share program and has not resulted in over- '

consolidation.He noted that allocations under the Rockfish program

Hayden said that the rockfish program has had the unintended
consequence of trawlers taking large amounts of black cod,a high-value

species also harvested by other gear types. [Following on the discussion
of complexity and simplicity in fisheries management] the simplest
thing would be for existing harvesters to get together and figure it out
for themselves rather than ask the government to hand over the
resource to them.
Taufen said that the discussion of catch shares was too narrow,that
catch shares were not the answer, and other models should be explored,
e.g., draw lots for who fishes in a particular week,or large users bidding
for ability to fish.
Okoniewski noted that we need tools to get the job done. Allocating PCS
alone does not limit the race for fish,and time and geography are best
tools to manage bycatch. He said that the program also needs a
cooperative structure,as a catch share program without coops does not
work well,as evidenced by the Pacific Coast trawl program. He noted
that the trawl fishery is more like industrial-scale fishing requiring a lot
of capital investment to catch fish.
Kwachka said that the voluntary cooperative structure currently in use
in the pollock trawl fishery could be extended, using annual allocations.
He noted need for ability to control bad actors,and maintain flexibility-
Don't build rigid boxes by allocating long term.
Whiddon asked the group if all catch shares could be put into a
community holding entity,then annually allocated to historic
participants,but rolling back into the community entity.
In response, Bonney said that of the 96 trawl licenses there are about 40
fishing- how would you decide who was able to fish,and how would
you bring in new entrants?
Fina said that what Whiddon suggested could be done according to the
regulations, but would need to come with restrictions so the community
would not reach too deeply into the business of fishing.
Haines said that privatization of the fishery resource would change the
economics of the fishery,but that is the point of this Council action- to

make the fishery look different than it is today,and that the industry
could not be expected to support communities.
Krueger said that Whiddon's idea would be very challenging. He said the
harvesting industry would like to follow the rockfish model,which has
showed that cooperative management works. He also said the trawl
industry is economically fragile currently,and that consolidation for
economic reasons may take place even without rationalization.
Kwachka said that management of bycatch could be done without
assigning ownership through catch shares. He said that the
ramifications are huge when the public resource is commodified. He
said that the Kodiak community has to be in the forefront, in part to
prevent negative effects on other fisheries.
Peterson said that community allocation would keep fishing in Kodiak,
and could control lease fees and benefit outlying communities. It could
be built around the 10 goals identified by community resolution.
O'Donnell said we saw the impact of reducing PSC caps this year with
May closure,and processing workers were impacted first. He said no
one is doing Community Fishing Associations (CFA's),and that it would
be better for community entities to purchase and bank fishing quota
[through Regional Fishing Association structure as allowed under MSA].
Kwachka said that communities needing to buy quota is an impediment,
and the high price of quota is the reason the Community Quota Entity
(CQE) program is not working as it is supposed to. He said that
currently no over 60-foot trawl licenses are available for sale,and that
current asking price for under 60-foot trawl LLP was$150,000.
Stoll described the regulatory difference in the Magnuson Stevens Act
(MSA) between Fishing Community(FC) and Regional Fishing
Association (RFA). FC's provide for initial allocation of fishing rights to
the community,while RFA's can acquire quota after initial allocation.
CFA's are not specifically referred to in the MSA.
Regarding the issue of community protections built into a fishery
management program,Taufen said that one needs to look at the whole

economic picture,and have transparency and full information from all
participants. He discussed the importance of considering the ecological
value of a management program,and the value of fish caught in one
fishery to other directed fisheries. He pointed out that salmon, crab and
halibut fishermen were under-represented in the discussion.
Peterson said that the expansion oftrawling,to under-utilized
bottomfish species could negatively affect other fisheries.
Hayden said it was not the right of any governing body to give away
fishing rights.
Lumsden said that catch share programs give harvesters the ability to
fish cleaner and throughout the year. He said that harvesters and
processors have a huge investment in the Kodiak community and have
the most at stake in the eventual management program.
Chandler said that time is the biggest asset harvesters have to fish
cleanly and do the best job possible in managing bycatch.
Qkoniewski said there are different components of capital flight.
Looking at this from efficiency perspective,will Seattle boats be as likely
to drive their boats up to Kodiak to fish with less fishing opportunity
available?
Haines said don't make a "cash cow"out of a portion of the quota [as in a
CFA]. if a community holds quota, it should benefit the current users of
the resource. Fishing rights could be allocated to a community as a pass-
through, with the imposition of community-specific criteria.The
community needs initial allocation.
Hayden said that instead of a severance tax on the industry, have a
community association holding fishing rights. She asked,would that
give trawlers the tools to manage bycatch?
Fina said there is a question whether the MSA provides for a community
holding fishing rights to lease those rights to harvesters.

AGENDA ITEM #2.g.
Kwachka says this could all be done at the Council level, not at the
community level. If annual allocations are done well you don't need
adaptive management, CFAs or separate protections for skipper and
crew. He said that when halibut was made into an IFQ fishery,the value
of the fishery went from$50M to$600M,by making the rights into a
commodity.
Bonney said that the best way to manage is to make the allocation of
fishing rights to a cooperative,which can successfully manage fleet
behavior.She said the question of allocation, of what, to whom, is the big
issue. She said that the community should ask itself what they want the
fishery to look like in five or ten years. She said that the Council should
make use of the elements in the current motion, including no transfer of
shares for the first two years. Regarding the duration of shares, crab and
halibut shares are permanent,while the MSA now requires catch shares
to be only ten years in duration.She said that the program could include
objectives such that participants are evaluated on performance of those
objectives.
Skinner indicated that voluntary cooperatives as have been suggested
by other participants have no way to control bad actors in a fishery,who
can cause the closure of a fishery for everyone.
Chandler said he favored the motion currently on the table at the
NPFMC,with perhaps the addition of fishermen protecting the
community interests. He noted that fishermen are community too.
Fina said the proposed program includes concern for biological effects,
with no increase in PSC caps,and 100%observer coverage.
O'Donnell said current voluntary coops have only peer pressure to
control bad actors, and that voluntary coops are volatile and can fall
apart.
Panelists discussed that the current rockfish management program has
an end date of 2021,with the program presumably reverting back to a
limited license management program unless reauthorized.

AGENDA ITEM #2.g.
LeDoux summarized what he had deduced from the discussion:
regulatory flexibility is good; stop the race for fish; do no harm to the
harvester, processor or processing worker; research is needed on
effects of gear types,ocean warming and ocean acidification;
consolidation is a business decision; bycatch affects other fisheries; it is
difficult now to get into some fisheries. He asked how the community
can be most effective as a governmental body,and how it can reach
consensus. He said it was not good to use complexity as an excuse not to
act.
Fina said that the community could tick off the issues on which they
could agree,such as the issue of avoiding over-consolidation. He said
the Council is receptive to public testimony and to talking individually.
Stoll said that the work of the KFWG has been a good step. He said in
order to proceed, the community might need "skin in the game,"
through a community entity.
Krueger said the harvesters want to best utilize PSC at the current
levels, and better utilizing flatfish will not mean higher PSC limits. In
reducing the biomass of predator fish, the important species might
rebound. He said the community involvement so far has been a
"marvelous job,"and he looked forward to participating in another
discussion after the October meeting.
Branson said she looked forward to continuing to testify at the NPFMC,
and reacting to the State proposal and Council action in October.
Fina said the community could request that Council analysts prioritize
community issues in their preliminary analysis, not right before final
action.
Public comment:
Lee Woodard said he has a large investment in trawling. He said that the
crab rationalization program was driven by economics and a steep
decline in the resource.

AGENDA ITEM #2.g.
Matt Moir thanked the panelists for a great discussion that was essential
to the community. He said that the crab program,the rockfish program
and the proposed trawl program were all different. He said not all catch
share programs were bad, and we need to design this one to benefit the
community. Change is inevitable, he said, and the participants need
access to the fisheries to provide benefits to the community.
Bob Bowhay gave the group several ways the community could benefit
the small boat fleet: ice available to the public, cold storage and a public
crane.
Darius Kasperzak also asked for those community small boat services,
and indicated that he thought that the trawl management program
should not include catch or quota shares that were transferable, and
that would become a commodity.
Steve Matthews said he was worried about consolidation and said that
the fishery needed to be based on free enterprise.
Kurt Waters said that the Lord made the fish and would help determine
how to best manage the resource.
Danielle Ringer asked how entry or succession in a fishery would work
in a quota system.
Sue Jeffrey suggested another way to stop the race for fish - that was
not a catch share program-was to have annual registration for an equal
share program,with the TAC divided among license holders perhaps
based on boat size and/or history. She said she did not want to
permanently allocate fishery rights.
Panelists'concluding statements:
Taufen said that catch shares are not the solution, and social concerns
must be integrated with economics.
Hardy said that she thought it was unprecedented what the KFWG has
done,and that it was good for our community. She wants to determine

what is best for the community, not necessarily what is best for one gear
type.
O'Donnell said it is better for fishermen to work together and stop the
segregation by gear type.
Kwachka said the discussion is all about having a healthy waterfront,
and that this is a good start. Everyone in the community is important
and should benefit from the new program.
Chandler said he was confident of a good outcome and this was a good
start.
Skinner thanked Fina and Stoll for their evening presentations. She said
she was looking forward to the State's proposal in October.She said a
program could put community protections in a box,and create a CFA,
but that was not necessarily the best result. She said we are all part of
the community. Flexibility in the program is important. She said the
crab fishery is different from the groundfish trawl fisheries.
LeDoux said he was learning more about what he needed to know. He
also said the KFWG needs to start talking about support for the small
boat fleet.
Krueger thanked the KFWG for making the effort to understand complex
fisheries.
The Fisheries Analyst and several other panelists said it would be good
to have another forum after the October Council meeting.
Okoniewski said that the meetings were resulting in more
understanding and progress. He said we should ask what is this fishery
going to look like if we don't change the management-ask the
fishermen and processors.
Bonney said we are talking about regulating an industry and an
economy,with social and cultural goals also involved.She said that
regulating a fishery and achieving bycatch goals in a voluntary
cooperative was a huge undertaking and very difficult.She said the

rockfish program has the regulatory framework to build on, in
determining how to get the fish out of the water in the best way.
Lumsden said he thought we would find the right solution.
Stoll said that listening to the respectful dialogue in the forum was
"amazing" and that it was unique to have this kind of dialogue. He hopes
we keep working.
Fina said that it was good to see that the community can come together
and have this kind of dialogue. He thinks the various sectors are starting
to understand each other. He sees that even though there is not total
consensus that the community can find some common ground.
