The foundation wants a community match in order to approve our $53,900 grant request going toward the total cost of $77,000 for replacing all curtains in the Gerald C. Wilson Auditorium and Drama Pod. PRESENT SITUATION: Resulting from a Letter of Inquiry submitted on June 28` the Kodiak Arts Council has been invited to submit a Rasmuson Foundation Tier 2 grant proposal. The Kodiak Arts Council is in the process of developing various components of the proposal which will be submitted by December 15th in order to be considered by the Rasmuson Foundation Board of Directors at its June 2007 meeting. O e key task in the process is to formulate a plan for raising the community match amount f $23,100. ADVANTAGES: • The present curtains were installed in 1986 when the auditorium was built. The curtains have since had two flame - retardant chemical treatments which are not only costly, but deteriorate the fabric. Twenty years is considered a respectable lifetime for curtains of this type. The most recent treatment was done in 1999, and the procedure was paid for by a $16,570 Borough appropriation. The Kodiak Fire Marshall has expressed concerns about the flame- retardant capabilities of the curtains in their present state, but Tom Kjera, Auditorium Technician, feels another application of flame - retardant chemicals would further deteriorate the fabric to the point that the curtains would still need to be replaced. Since the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly owns the facility and the Kodiak Island Borough School District owns the facility's equipment, securing this grant to replace the curtains will save both entities money. The new curtains we propose to buy are made of an inherently flame- retardant fabric, will have a longer life than the present ones, and will require no maintenance costs. • It is important to keep this facility in safe operating condition because it is used by so many segments of the community. The School District is the single largest user of the main auditorium and drama pod for graduation ceremonies, plays and musical performances, special programs like the Youth Assets Festival, spelling bees, and academic awards ceremonies. Kodiak High School classes are held in the drama pod. Since the School District operates the facility it does not pay fees for use. Numerous other local organizations also use the facility and do pay user fees. The groups include the Kodiak Arts Council and its member organizations: Whalefest. the Kodiak Youth Orchestra, the Kodiak Island Drummers, the Bear Paw Quilters' Guild, the Kodiak Russian Balalaika Players, Community Orchestra, Community Choir, and Community Theater. The auditorium is also used by Kodiak Electric Association, Woodland Dance Studio, Little School of Dance, St. Innocent's Academy, the Kodiak Chamber of Commerce, St. Mary's School, radio stations KMXT and KVOK, and the Kodiak Elks Club. In addition, when tragedy strikes, and commercial fishing vessels .re lost this close -knit fishin community has a place to gather for memorial services. DISADVANTAGES: None ACTION PLAN: 1.

TAKE NECESSARY STEPS TO INSURE FUNDINGFOR COMMUNITY MATCH PROJECT TIMELINE FOR GRANT PROPOSAL APPLICATION OCTOBER/NOVEMBER: Staff from the Kodiak Arts Council and Community Schools office does presentations at work sessions and regular meetings of the Kodiak Island Borough School District Board of Education and the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly in order to secure $18,000 of the required community match. The Kodiak Arts Council Board of Directors organizes and implements a community wide targeted fundraising campaign for project "Curtain Call" to raise the additional $5,100 needed for the community match. Solicitation of other in -kind funds for items such as shipping costs will be part of this effort. OCTOBER - DECEMBER: The Kodiak Arts Council's grants writer prepares the grant proposal for submission to the Rasmuson Foundation by December 15, 2006. Threshold Services Inc. Summar Retort to Kodiak Island Borough Assembl on Recvcline Matt Jamin, Threshold Treasurer I appeared before you in late July to discuss the need for a new contract with the borough if Threshold was to remain viable in its recycling efforts. Because the approximately $8000 per month revenue stream from Kodiak Sanitation had terminated, the assembly authorized payments of $17,500 per month to Threshold for August and September, and directed us to develop a fair allocation of fiscal responsibility between the USCG and the Borough for Threshold's recycling costs. We have used the intervening two months to refine our income and expense figures, and are now able to propose a new model for recycling. We have also purchased a scale that lets us weigh our product with precision. We have learned that our fixed costs are roughly $20,000 per month, and that roughly one half of the product comes to us from CG sources (primarily the base refuse contractor) and one half of the product comes to us from "town" sources, primarily Kod San, our commercial pickup service and citizen drop offs at our plant. Because our product comes in roughly equal quantities from the two sources, we propose to charge each of the CG and the Borough $9,000 per month irrespective of the amount of their product each brings to our plant, up to 30,000 lbs (which is approximately one van load). We fully expect that each of the Borough and the CG will in fact deliver more than 30,000 lbs per month to our plant. Together with the revenue we receive from Smurfitt (our recyclable market in Washington), and other income, this model will generate enough to cover our fixed costs. From what we have seen during the last few months, we estimate that the CG will have an extra van about once every three months, and that the Borough will in fact have more than one van a month, spread out more evenly over the year. We propose to deal with this extra product (and to provide us some incentive to process as much material as is delivered) by charging each of the Borough and the CG $.15 per pound for any material in excess of 30,000 pounds in a particular month. Thus if each of the CG and the Borough generated 20,000 pounds of material in a given month, we would bill each the core amount of $9000. Soitlo if each generated 30,000 pounds. But if the borough portion in a particular month was 45,000 Ibs, and the CG was 60,000 pounds, we would bill the CG $9,000 for the first 30,000 lbs and 30,000 x .15 or $4500 for the second 30,000 Ibs, for a total of $13,500 in that month. The borough would be billed $9,000 for the first 30,000 lbs and 15,000 x $.15 per Ib, or $2,250 for the extra 15,000 Ibs, for a total of $11,250 for that month. These extra charges permit us to deal with the extra cost of moving additional product through our facility, which include increased personnel costs, increased utilities and additional freight charges from Horizon. In short, we seek a contract from the borough for $9,000 per month, plus $.15 per lb for any material we receive in a particular month, from non coast guard sources, over 30,000 lbs. I have attached a copy of our proposed budget for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2006 and continuing through September 30, 2007. Given the withdrawal of the Kodiak Sanitation work, we will need commitments from both the borough and the coast guard to have a viable program. Thank you for your consideration of our request. We very much appreciate the borough's willingness to "keep us alive" for two months while we tried to work something out with the CG.

The saline system should greatly enhance both the water and air quality in the existing pool. Swimmers love the feel and comfort of the saline system. A UV system is compatible with and would provide some additional benefit but at substantial additional cost. Staff has done considerable research on the internet and has talked with vendors of equipment and operators of saline pools throughout the state. None of these experts have voiced the need for or recommended installing both saline and UV systems. The TMI SaltPure saline system is a chlorine generator. It is a stand alone system that is currently installed in several pools in the state and is very highly recommended by users and operators. It requires only an inexpensive pellet backup system. The UV system would be an enhancement to the saline system. UV is a very effective sanitizer in that it is a superior oxidizer of organic materials, but it is a point treatment system and a substantial chlorine (or saline) system is still required as state law requires residual chlorine in the system. Staff feels that the saline system alone should provide sufficient improvement in swimmers comfort and both water and air quality, but the UV system can be installed if desired. Tim Petsch of TMI SaltPure has provided nearly all, if not all, of the six known saline systems in the state. He sells both UV and saline systems and states that in his nearly 20 years in the business he has provided both a saline and UV system to a customer only once, and that was many years ago, and for a pool with extremely poor air quality. He recommends installing a saline system first and then make a determination if UV is necessary. He feels 99 +% sure that UV will not be required.

Dr. Lowry is a consultant to government and industry in the areas of pool /spa technology and marketing and is the Canadian agent for Taylor Technologies of Sparks, Maryland. In addition to these responsibilities, he founded Lowry's School of Pool & Spa Maintenance in 1980. Dr. Lowry has published in trade journals and gives numerous lectures on pool and spa chemistry. He presently is a member of the national Spa and Pool Institute (NSPI) Chemical Treatment and Process Committee and has, for the past several years, given talks on spa chemistry at the annual NSPI fall convention. While Dr. Lowry has written previous articles on different `alternative' systems, this article summarizes a fuller aspect of the different systems which claim to be replacements or supplements to standard chlorine /bromine treatment of pool water. An "alternative" system or device which treats and/or sanitizes pool water supplements or complements the use of the only two accepted pool/spa sanitizers in Canada, namely chlorine or bromine. To understand how these systems work, however, we must first define some of the terms used in this article. Sterilization: 100% destruction of all bacteria on the object being sterilized This process has no use in recreational water. One cannot sterilize a pool or -spa. There is simply too much activity - bathers entering and leaving, air volume changes, large spaces, etc. One does not sterilize anything in a pool /spa environment. Disinfection: 100% destruction of all disease- causing bacteria (pathogens) on the object being disinfected. As with sterilization, one cannot obtain complete destruction in the pool environment. Although improper, the terms "disinfection' and 'disinfectant' have persisted and are commonly used. Sanitation: The destruction of microorganisms to levels (usually by 99% or more) deemed safe by public health standards. This is the proper term to be used. with pool / spa water. One sanitizes pool / spa water with a 'sanitizes'. Oxidation: Simply stated, oxidation is the combination of an element with oxygen. Burning coal (carbon) to produce carbon dioxide is oxidation. This usually means destruction of the substance being oxidized. Oxidation can occur without flames when chlorine oxidizes the organics from bathers in pool water. The substance is oxidized, destroyed or 'burned out. Oxidizing does not necessarily mean sanitation. Nor does sanitation necessarily mean oxidation. For example, potassium monopersulfate, a non - chlorine oxidizer commonly used in the pool is an oxidizer but an ineffective sanitizer. Whereas polyhexamethylene biguanide (P11MB) which is sold as `Baquacil ' or `Soft Swim' (not registered as yet in Canada) is a sanitizer but not an oxidizer. Chlorine the Bad The key reason for the demand for `alternative' systems is the public's perception of the "evils" of chlorine, namely, environmental damage. Rachel Carson's book, "Silent Spring" depicted the hidden environmental evils of DDT. It is chlorinated hydrocarbons like DDT, a trichlorinated hydrocarbon, which have caused all the bad publicity. This, plus the honors of poisonous gas attacks using elemental chlorine, have given the public the feeling that chlorine is "evil" and must be eradicated from our society. Chlorine the Good In the battle for potable water, the discovery of chlorine has been a boon for mankind. Our high standard of living would be decimated without the security of sanitized water due to the presence of a chlorine residual, which does not create environmentally damaging chlorinated hydrocarbons but "hypochlorous acid" (free available chlorine, FAC). While able to chlorinate hydrocarbons, the worst by- products are small quantities of trihalomethanes (THM's). Mainly composed of chloroform, these gaseous by- products are easily reduced by the UV rays of the sun and cause no environmental damage to the ozone layer. While considered a carcinogen, the quantities produced are minuscule and the World Health Organization reports no known cases of cancer from chlorinated drinking water. Diseases such as typhus and cholera have been eradicated since the filtration and chlorination of potable water. And when you consider the numerous deaths experienced in overcrowded troop camps due to contamination of drinkable water as late as the American Civil War, the negatives of chlorine use pale in comparison to the benefits. What Makes Chlorine Unique? Chlorine (bromine is similar and for brevity will not be further mentioned) has a list of properties that make it an ideal sanitizer for pools /spas. Lets look at these properties. Sanitizer: Free available chlorine (FAC) ( hypochlorous acid) is a sanitizer. It enters through the bacterial cell wall and kills the organism by destroying the sulfur groups on the cell's enzymes, causing the cell's metabolism to stop, resulting in the cells death. Fast Kill Times: Not only does FAC kill bacteria — it does it very quickly. The Association of Analytical chemists uses a kill time of 30 seconds at 0.6 PPM FAC to completely destroy a given concentration of bacteria as a standard for a swimming pool disinfectant. Stable Residual: FAC is stable enough in solution to allow a residual to exist in every portion of pool water Such FAC residuals "stand guard" against the presence of bacteria which will be quickly destroyed. Oxidizing Agent: While not the most vaunted property of chlorine, its ability to oxidize is the key to its usefulness as a sanitizer. It has been estimated that over 90% of the FAC residual is used to oxidize organics introduced into the pool by bathers. If the purpose of FAC was only to kill bacteria, much lower levels of chlorine could be allowed. It is the oxidative properties of chlorine, which make it the workhorse of cleansing pool/spa water The Pool Placebo Effect? Some `alternative' systems are marginally effective, some none at all, and yet they continue to sell. One look at the `pool placebo effect' explains why. Do you remember chlorophyll toothpaste — the rave in the 1950's? What did it do? Nothing! Yet most toothpaste manufacturers added it to their product Where is it now? The publics desire for a chlorine substitute is motivated by the belief that its beneficial properties are quite marginal...like the copper band worn around your wrist to ward off the evils of rheumatism. A lack of monitoring, judging results on short-term application only, and being part of the purchase decision, all help improve the image of certain products, which is not warranted. More information on this subject can be found in a previous article of this publication.' "Save 90% of your Chlorine Costs!" Many `alternative' systems attempt to justify their purchase by touting a savings of "90% chlorine ". Pool owners are even told to cut back on the pool chlorine level to prove this savings. Wrong! Cutting back on the level of pool chlorine to save money is like using a credit card to conserve cash...its works fine until the bill appears and the true cost becomes known. The same goes for reducing chlorine levels. The water may look fine for a while (how long depends on bather load) but when the filter cycle shortens and the water becomes turbid, a good chlorine shock will be required... some great savings! The true test for chlorine savings is not by reducing FAC levels but by maintaining your standard levels to see if the alternative system being tested will maintain these levels with a 90% reduction of chlorine usage! Alternative Sanitizers — Some Examples Chlorine Generators: These devices contain electrical cells which generate chlorine from a bank of salt added to the pool water. After being depleted, the FAC reverts back to salt to be reused. This device is really not an `alternative' system, as FAC is produced and reacts the same as adding chlorine from a purchased bucket. Ionizers: These are usually copper and or silver electrodes which introduce soluble copper and silver ions to the pool when an electric current is passed through the unit. Copper is used for algae control and silver for bacteria control. While once touted as "chlorine -free" systems, they are now mainly sold as devices to be used with low levels of chlorine. These `heavy metal' devices (so -named because of the high density of elemental metals) are sold in the pool industry as `alternative' sanitizers. They have several shortcomings, however. First, in Canada, silver is not allowed as a sanitizer and is not even allowed to be listed in any accompanying literature. Second, although copper is an extremely effective algaecide, it has the propensity to precipitate and discolour pool surfaces with a tenacious grey to black stain. Finally, these devices are not oxidizers, so 90% of the workload of chlorine is not fulfilled. Maenets: Using magnets as water conditioners, mainly for pH and scale control, is dismissed as a scam by some industrial water treatment associations and in a previous article by the writer. Aggressive marketing and threats of legal action often silence the opponents of magnetic devices. These devices are also sold as a way to increase gas mileage when attached to the gas tank and as a way to increase blood circulation when attached to the body by adhesive tape.... interesting. Oxygen generators: These devices pass current between two electrodes resulting in the electrolysis of water creating two volumes of hydrogen at the cathode and one volume of oxygen at the anode. The word "nascent" oxygen is often used to give them a scientific flair The sanitation properties of oxygen are flaunted. This weakly soluble oxygen has little — if any Lowry, R.

Ozone Generators: These create 0 by passing air through either Corona Discharge (CD) or Ultraviolet (UV) Radiation. Ozone — an extremely powerful oxidizing agent — is so unstable that is must be generated at the point of entry into the pool. Due to it's activity and low solubility, it does not leave a required residual in pool water and must be used with chlorine. It is not a stand -alone system. Allowing ozone to accumulate in enclosed areas can also compromise the health of the individual. UV Devices: It is know that bacteria are killed when subjected to certain wave lengths of ultraviolet light. You may have seen surgical instruments sterilized under UV light. Having UV irradiate water passing through a transparent pipe in the return line may kill the bacteria in the pipe, but it has no effect on sanitizing the remaining water in the pool. YV leaves no residual and no ability to oxidize. Trojan Technologies of London, Ontario, which sells UV generators, dismisses the use of UV technology for use in pools. Oxidative Catalysts: These devices use a cartridge attached to the return line which contains metallic copper and finely divided elemental silver. There are no electrical components. The copper and silver dissolve by erosion or corrosion. Finely divided silver is known to be an oxidative catalyst in the synthesis of certain hydrocarbons. These devices claim that they can control algae and can assist chlorine in killing bacteria. This device is incompatible with bromine sanitizers. It has no ability to oxidize. While little staining occurs with copper, it is often difficult to measure any copper residual in the water. Some critics of this device say it is a form of homeopathy, a branch of medicine, which dilutes the drug to a point where it cannot be detected and yet claims medicinal results. Claims for silver efficacy are not allowed in Canada. Conclusion A list of the above `alternative' systems is compiled on the spreadsheet shown on page 18. Examine it carefully and learn the beneficial and negatives of each system. Hopefully, this will assist the reader in their choice of an `alternative' sanitizer. ... for swimming pool purity Hanovia W O R L D C L ASS S U Max.

UV has an important secondary action: it initiates photo - chemical and photo - oxidation reactions which destroys chloramines, a range of compounds responsible for unpleasant smells in pools. This is particularly important in leisure pools where features such as water slides and waves give a greater surface area for the release of chloramines into the air; UV reduces the burden, making the atmosphere safer and more pleasant. Total to bound ratio of > 4:1 are typical of pool water treated by Hanovia UV.

I would like to share an E -mail that I received from Maryland Athletic Club. I met with Tim Rhode (Co -Owner of MAC),recently and he was intrigued with the TMI Salt Pure(r) concept. Having Ozone on all his pools allowed him to keep low residuals of chlorine in the water, and he prided himself on the water quality, so he was skeptical that Salt Pure (r) would make a noticeable change in his water and environment. Karen Alexander, Aquatic Therapy Program Manager at MAC sent Tim an email last week, a month or so after converting their facility: "Hi Tim! I want to take the time to share with you some feedback I received from a few of my Healthy Series participants in regards to our new Salt Pure@ pool. The next day after one of my Healthy Back classes, a few of the participants commented on how much of a difference they felt with the Salt Pure® water, They all mostly noticed how soft it was and that they didn't feel all dried out after class, but more importantly, they noticed a difference in their pain level. These participants have been through 3 weeks of my program while it was Ozone, and notice this drastic difference as soon as it was switched over. AMAZING! Two of the woman commented AGAIN to me tonight how much they really enjoy it and described it as "a big Epson salt bath" and VERY therapeutic I thought you would like to know this info. THANKS!!!!

How much will it cost to convert to Salt Pure® Water? Your pool size and use determine the cost of conversion. Fill out our evaluation sheet to receive a detailed bid. Most of the work can be performed in -house by your maintenance staff. The amount of salt required for the initial start-up is based upon your pool gallonage. 3. How much will the Salt Pure system cost to run? Very little. The electrical draw is approximately 6 amps per COM -25 (@ 220v). Salt can be purchased in 50 lb. bags and can run anywhere from $3.00 to $11.00 per 50 lbs. depending on where you facility is located and from whom you buy your salt. Salt is not consumed in the process so you will only need to replace salt lost with water loss. (backwashing). Annual salt costs are therefore minimal. 4. What do I have to change in my pump room in order to convert to system? Nothing. Normally, we are simply adding 3 pieces of equipment. Two in the on the pump room wall. The complexity of the installation is relative to the pool. 5. How difficult is it to install a Salt Pure® system? We would compare it to installing a pool pump. A typical dual COM -25 System installation can take two people, two to six hours, including electrical. Larger pools will require more time determined by the number of COM -25's sized for your pool and may require a by -pass line to be installed after your heater. 6. Is it compatible with my current Automatic Controller? It may be. Depending on how old your Automatic Controller system is, and which model you have. As Salt Pure® has become more popular we are seeing more controller manufacturers claiming that their systems are compatible. To date, a number of manufacturers state that their systems are compatible. Some older models may have a problem. Return to Questions 7. What kind of maintenance can I expect with my Salt Pure® system? About 30 — 5O% less than you do now. You will continue to test your pool water in the same way as you currently test. To check for Salt content in your water, has a One Touch Salinty Meter. The cell needs to be inspected once or twice per year (depending on your water hardness). This entails removing the cells for a visual inspection only. http:// www.tmisaltpure.com/com_faq.php Return to Questions Return to Ouestions Return to Questions a Salt Pure ® return line and one size and use of the Return to Questions Return to Questions Return to Questions TMI Salt Pure Corporation - The Best Feeling Water 8.

What chemicals will I continue to use with the Salt Pure system? All your water balance chemicals for pH, Total Alkalinity and Calcium Hardness. Return to_Questions 15. What is TDS and will I have to continue to dump my water if my Total Dissolved Solids go over 1500 PPM? No, not if the composition of your TDS is based upon the addition of salt to your water for your Salt Pure ® system. To understand your "true" TDS, subtract your PPM Salt from your TDS. Since the salt required to operate is added directly to the pool water there is a rise in TDS levels; however, obviously, there is no increase in the contaminant levels in the pool. Also, since is a closed loop system (salt is converted to chlorine and reconverted back to salt) the TDS level does not continue to rise as it would in conventionally sanitized pools. The also continuously shocks (burns out, super chlorinates) organics and other contaminants so there is less chance for their buildup. Reference: (The Proper Management of pool and spa water.

Prior to the year 2000 we had a gas chlorine system at our pool. We received many complaints about the swimmers skin and eyes being irritated every time they went swimming. There was also a safety issue with changing the 150# gas chlorine tanks. I would have to call the fire department before I changed the tank, and then again after I was finished to make sure everything was ok. Then we heard about the Haines swimming pool getting a salt chlorine system and not too long after that the Juneau pool got a salt chlorine system. I flew up to Juneau and looked at their system and swam in the pool. I was impressed. About six months later we purchased a TMI salt pure system and have been happy ever since. The swimmers love the water and their eyes are not irritated near as much. Our water is crystal clear. With the salt pure system there is no need for any other systems like uv.

We've not run into any problems to this point that would make us want to install a UV system at any point in the future. The ChorMatic system was installed by TMI Salt Pure in 1999. This system has been very successful to date. Our relationship with TMI has been an excellent one, with good customer service and a willingness to help us solve any issues that have come up no matter the size. 10/12/2006 TO: THROUGH: FROM: SUBJECT: DATE: There has been some concern in recent years about the financial condition of the landfill. I have taken information from the Solid Waste Fund's general ledger and created several reports from it. I would like to mention that the FY2006 numbers have been audited but the audit is not yet finalized. There could be a change to these numbers. Also, these spreadsheets were not prepared on a GASB (Governmental Accounting Standards Board) basis. I believe that they are useful in showing the current financial condition of the landfill and where it could be going. I believe that we should look first at the Solid Waste funds balance sheet.

It also had $5,527,103 in net fixed assets. At June 30, 2006 the Solid Waste Disposal Fund had $5,099,295 in liabilities. At some point in time all of these liabilities will have to be paid. If you take fixed assets out of the equation then the landfill is short $1,858,041 in its ability to pay its liabilities. For the year ended June 30, 2006 the landfill had a net income of $536,282. If you remove depreciation from the equation then the landfill had a net income of $781,792. Collection Revenues $ 2,794,124 Collection Revenues Disposal Revenues 1,085,527 Disposal Revenues $ 2,085, Total Revenues 3,879,651 Total Revenues 3,879,651 3,879,651 1 Collection Expense 1,361,132 Collection Expense Disposal Expense Ex ense 1,731,27 1,982,237 Disposal Expense less depreciaiton 1,736,7727 Total Expenses 3,343,369 Total Expenses 3,097,859 Net Income $ 536,282 Net Income $ 781,792 At the current rate the landfill should be able to cover the deficit in 4 years. It should be realized that prices (costs) will go up in these 4 years and fees will have to be increased to provide the same level of net income. It should be noted that collection revenues are greater than collection expenses and disposal revenues are less than disposal expenses. This is because of the way the fee schedule is structured. There has been some discussion about separating the collection function and the disposal function and moving one or both operations to the private sector. If this is done there are several items to remember. • If the Borough is only responsible for one of the functions (disposal or collections) the fee schedule will have to be adjusted accordingly. • If the landfill is operated by an independent contractor we must still accrue funds for closure /postclosure costs and to make loan payments. • If the landfill is operated by an independent contractor it will need to be closely monitored by the Borough so that we don't inherit an environmental liability. I believe that these are the items that I was to address. If you have any more questions please let me know. 2 APPOINTMENT OF ASSEMBLY REPRESENTATIVES TO BOARDS AND COMMITTEES 2.39.030 Appointments.
