It is with great pleasure and anticipation that I submit a proposal to work with the community leaders and people of Kodiak.I am a 35-year resident of coastal Alaska fishing communities,from a commercial salmon fishing family,and a true believer in the need for reasonable and informed local decision-making to sustain and develop this state's fisheries resources.Although I have never lived in Kodiak,I have been visiting your beautiful island regularly for more than 20 years,as a long-time member of the Policy Council for your"Fish Tech"Center,as a faithful ComFish attendee,as a member of the North Pacific Council"family,"and as a consultant for a Kodiak processor who works with all species. My experience and familiarity with the local commercial and sport fisheries has been augmented by ten years of work with a community development group in the Bering Sea, where I gained an appreciation for the importance of subsistence fisheries to the Alaska Native cultures.The long association with the University of Alaska School of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences in both an advisory capacity and as an administrator of an industry- funded marine research program has given me insight into the important rale of science in sustaining fisheries.I also served for three years as the fishery representative on the North Pacific Research Board,advocating for research in support of pressing fishery management issues. As to current experience in the fishery regulatory process,I have attended every meeting of the North Pacific Fisheries Management Council(NPFMC)for the last 15 years, serving on a Council committee,making testimony and moving forward a number of important Council actions on behalf of employers and clients.I have also been to every regular meeting of the International Pacific Halibut Commission(IPHC)for the last six years,and have served on its Processor Advisory Group during that period.I cut my regulatory teeth on salmon issues when 1 worked with the salmon industry in Prince William Sound,moving actions through the Board of Fisheries(BOF)and the Department of Fish and Game.I have not spent a lot of time in the last few years at the BOF,but I am very familiar with that process. Page 22 of 41 Amendment#1 to Contract No. FY2014-26 Professional Services... AGENDA ITEM M.A. Because of my varied experiences,I understated fishery resource management issues in Alaska,from several different perspectives:harvesting,processing,aquaculture, marketing,Alaska Native culture,sustainability,research and education.I have participated in formal and informal bodies,boards and commissions at all levels,and am able to communicate well in those settings. I am very conversant with the State Constitution and the State and Federal fishery regulations,and with the processes that create them.The Magnuson Stevens Act with its national standards has been in my briefcase for years,and is dog-eared from use.I have taken a national course in the NEPA regulations that guide Federal regulatory decision- making. One of my personal and professional hallmarks is fairness and honesty;I hope that conversations with my references will bring that out.Because 1 have represented many different sectors and interests,and have lived in and focused on fishing communities,I really do perceive and approach issues from multiple angles—and always with the interests of the community uppermost.I believe I can offer unbiased fisheries analysis and advice to the community leaders of Kodiak. It is clear to me that some might consider my work with a Kodiak processor a conflict of interest with representing the City and Borough of Kodiak.If I am asked to work with Kodiak,I am prepared to immediately and completely end that professional relationship. My other client relationships,in my opinion,could not be judged a conflict of interest. Regarding technical considerations,I do have property and car insurance,including liability insurance,and can provide that information.I do not have professional liability insurance,as it has not been required in other contracts and it is a considerable expense.l am in the process of renewing my Alaska business license. I believe I have provided all of the required information—but if you have any questions or need additional information please call or email me any time..,l look forward to hearing from you,and to serving the people of Kodiak.

AGENDA ITEM O.A. Implementation Plan Overview The work of the Kodiak Fisheries Analyst must be informed by a thorough understanding of the importance of the Fisheries resources to the diverse user groups,support industries and governmental entities in the community of Kodiak.Residents of the City and Borough of Kodiak,and the non-residents who use the fisheries and community services, share a common goal:sustainable management of the marine resources in a manner that supports the resource users and the economy of Kodiak. Without the docks,the roads,the water,the power,the hospital,the repair shops,the grocery stores,the fuel dealers,the medical care,the airport,the Coast Guard—the community assets—there would be no support for the world-class Gulf of Alaska fisheries.Without the processors there would be no harvest coming to town.Without the harvesters there would be no processors.And without the fish,there would be no user groups and support businesses,and the economy of Kodiak would be greatly reduced. The monitoring and analysis of pertinent fisheries issues and processes will be informed by the clear goals and objectives of the community and the user groups.The issues will be reported regularly,with an analysis of how each issue and policy decision is likely to affect the community and its economy. Scoping Working with the Borough Assembly and Manager,the City Council and Manager,and the Kodiak Fisheries Work Group,we will review the overall goals and the specific expectations of those groups,as well as determine the best methods of reportage and information transfer.In addition,I will also communicate early on with the major fisheries,civic and regulatory organizations in Kodiak to more fully understand their points of view regarding the importance of the marine resources to Kodiak. Of particular interest will be the comprehensive list of ten community objectives recently developed by the Fisheries Work Group.This excellent list was put together after a number of meetings of that group in relation to the expected rationalization of the major groundfish fisheries in the Gulf of Alaska.However,the principles therein can be applied to many other fishery-related issues and processes,both Federal and State.it may be helpful to further refine those principles through a discussion process as needed,and use them as a basic measure for the analysis of fisheries issues and policies. I understand the City and Borough have discussed commissioning an economic study to further quantify the contribution and importance of the fishing industry to the Kodiak community.If the resources are available and the City and Borough agree,1 support such a study,and can advise the process of developing the scope of work and identifying potential experts. Page 28 of 41 Amendment#1 to Contract No. FY2014-26 Professional Services... AGENDA ITEM M.A. The important questions are:what is the importance of the fisheries to the people and economy of Kodiak Island,and what are the principles that will guide the development of the policy positions and strategies of the community. Activities and Deliverables 1 will attend every meeting of the North Pacific Fisheries Management Council(NPFMC) and the International Pacific Halibut Commission(IPHC).I will also attend all meetings of the Alaska Board of Fisheries and any other meetings where regulatory changes relevant to the Kodiak area fisheries are discussed.I will also monitor and review all actions and decisions of the National Marine Fisheries Service and the State of Alaska Department of Fish and Game that might affect Kodiak fisheries. Within a week after the conclusion of each of these meetings,l will provide to the Borough Assembly and the City Council a written summary of issues and actions that could affect the Kodiak economy.On a quarterly schedule,I will provide written reports to the Borough Assembly and the City Council,and make presentations at their joint meetings.The reports will include a summary of work performed,as well as a description and preliminary analysis of ongoing issues and proposed regulatory changes. As often as needed and directed I will prepare analyses of the economic impact of proposed regulatory changes,both Federal and State. It is important that community leaders have the background information to fully understand and make policy decisions on the fisheries issues that will affect their constituents.With my knowledge of fisheries management and background in collaborative discussion and mediation,I can offer the Borough and Council and Fisheries Work Group both historical perspective and the most current aspects of each issue.This sort of information exchange can take place as often as desired—I will make myself available as the Council and Assembly directs,but suggest at least one or two introductory workshop-style session on major issues towards the beginning of the contract. I will also be available to address other community groups as directed. Page 29 of 41 Amendment#1 to Contract No. FY2014-26 Professional Services... AGENDA ITEM O.A. Proposed Fee Schedule I propose to provide the services and deliverables detailed in the Implementation Plan, and any additional duties as assigned,for a fee of 55,400 per month,payable upon presentation of an invoice at the end of each month. The City and Borough will reimburse McCarty and Associates upon presentation or receipts for travel costs to and from the Island of Kodiak,and lodging and meals,for the quarterly trips required by the contract,and any other travel to Kodiak directed and approved by the City and Borough. The costs of attending all five regular annual meetings orthe North Pacific Fisheries Management Council will be born by McCarty and Associates. The costs of attending the International Pacific Halibut Commission(two meetings annually),and the pertinent meetings of the Alaska Board of Fisheries or any other regulatory body,as directed and approved by the City and Borough,will also be reimbursed upon presentation of receipts.

The First motion is an expansion of the State's original cooperative structure framework motion that we commented on,and that was the subject of the discussion paper we reviewed.The new motion adds several things:it specifies 100%observer coverage;adds consideration of allocation of several target species in addition to pollock and cod, includes crab along with salmon and halibut as Prohibited Species, includes specific alternative suites of years for eligibility and processor association;and provides specific alternative percentages for vessel and processor caps. This motion continues to refine the elements of the voluntary cooperative structure, with harvesters and their historic processor associated for at least the first two years of the program,and the requirement that the cooperative agreement must be signed by the processor and 51 to 0%of the license holders. It retains the option of having the community in which the processor is located also sign the cooperative agreement This leaves open the possibility(motion,section 7 ) that the community could participate in setting contract elements such as"bycatch management,active participation,mechanisms to facilitate entry,community provisions." It was clear that the State and the Council is asking for further analysis of this potential path for community participation for the achievement of community goals. Page 6 of 41 Amendment 1 to Contract No. FY2014-26 Professional Services... AGENDA ITEM O.A. The motion also elaborates on regional delivery requirements(motion,section 9b), proposing that target species would be required to be landed in the region designated based on historic delivery patterns during a particular suite of years, either the qualifying years or 2011-2012.This section also includes an OPTION for a PORT of Kodiak landing requirement for delivery of target species historically delivered in Kodiak. The section on community stability also includes the provision(section 9c)that individuals or entities must meet certain fishery participation criteria in order to be eligible to purchase a trawl license with associated history.It does not include those criteria,but Council staff noted in a subsequent meeting that this could be a placeholder for other Council objectives. The motion Includes a request for information on latent trawl licenses and their effect on the proposed cooperative program,to evaluate the need for further recency criteria.It was noted in subsequent meetings that some trawl licenses could end up with no quota or very little quota,depending on the suite of years chosen for qualification. The second Council motion picked up the CFA proposal submitted to the Council and asked that it be reviewed.The Council asked for"an assessment of how a CFA construct could be used to address the Council's problem statement and the goals and objectives"for the action.The discussion will"compare and contrast the CFA tool with provisions in the [main] motion that may provide specific community protections." In their discussion about this motion,some Council members indicated that they were voting to analyze the concept rather than the specific CFA proposal,and that the proposal could provide information for analysis but not necessarily a template. One member said he wanted to work on community protection through adaptive management.Another member said the proposal could"morph into something else, one of the mechanisms that allows us to do adaptive management" It was pointed out that coastal communities supported analysis of the concept. The third motion was specifically about adaptive management,asking for a discussion paper on the West Coast Trawl program adaptive management quota provision.The maker of the motion indicated it was important to better understand how that provision was arrived at in the Pacific Council process,how is it being used,and why the decisions were made to include it in the program. Potential Council schedule The Council asked that the expanded discussion papers come back to them for consideration at either the October or December Council meeting.It is more likely to be December,but that will not be decided until late summer.At that meeting late in 2014,it is expected that the Council will adopt a suite of alternatives,and initiate a Page 37 of 41 Amendment#1 to Contract No. FY2014-26 Professional Services... AGENDA ITEM O.A. formal analysis. Final Council decision on the program will occur after that analysis is complete,no earlier than late 2015. Following the final decision,the National Marine Fisheries Service undertakes to write the Proposed Rule,which implements in regulation the content of the final Council decision.The Proposed Rule is out for public review for a set period of time,and then the public comments are responded to,and a Final Rule is posted in the Federal Register-this process can take up to 18 months. State Waters Fishery issues The federal process is made more complicated by the need for the State of Alaska to undertake a concurrent process to consider the coordination of the parallel fisheries in State waters(0 to 3 miles)with the federal fisheries under a new management program.Also,the Board of Fisheries(BOF)received a proposal from a Gulf trawler to create a State pollock fishery open to all gear types and funded by 25%of the total allowable catch of pollock. I attended the meeting yesterday of the BOF Central Gulf of Alaska Walleye Pollock Workgroup as they considered these issues.The workgroup is made up of harvesters-by gear type and region-processors,and NMFS,Council and ADF&G staff-a large group. The group did not include community representatives or Western Gulf reps,so the chair intends to add a harvester and a processor from the Western Gulf,a representative of the Kodiak community,and a representative of a Western Gulf community.The next meeting of this workgroup is in October,just prior to the October Council meeting. Recommendations As I have pointed out in my emails this week,we have some timing questions to consider at your upcoming meeting.We will be discussing the Gulf Trawl Bycatch action and several other issues with the visitors from NMFS,but we do not have time in advance of that discussion to discuss amongst ourselves and react to the Council action from last week.So the discussion tomorrow-as John indicated-will necessarily be limited to the contents of our previous position letter. I recommend that at the beginning of the meeting I give a brief update acknowledging and summarizing the recent Council actions,and saying that we have not had the opportunity to review and analyze those actions-but that we intend to at subsequent meetings.We should have the three motions available for the public. I also recommend that the FG schedule another meeting as soon as is workable to discuss in more depth the Council actions,the State Waters issues,and the plans for moving forward with community participation in this process.
