b. Dock Foreman
Eldridge asked if there was an update on dock activities. Komelis
reported the drift and set net fishery is complete and clean up is
underway. Komelis also reported there is still a little fuel left to be
sold. Freden is attempting to build an extra float.
Jahrig asked if revenue was down since dip netting was shut
down. Komelis replied revenue was down and some of the drifters
have switched over to halibut gear.
HARBOR COMMISSION MEETING
AUGUST 10, 1998
PAGE 1
McCune asked how many boat launches took place this season.
Komelis answered, approximately 14,000 to 15,000. Last year
there were 20,000 launches. Komelis also noted rental revenue
will also be down from last year.
Jahrig noted the hired help at the ticket booths helped out
tremendously.
McCune asked how the mouth of the river looked this year.
Komelis reported the mouth looked much better than previous
years. It helped to have the dumpsters available on both sides.
Komelis reported he will be traveling to Anchorage on August 13 to
present the EVOS grant application for enlarging the parking lot,
the access road, and parking lot on the south side. Komelis
continued, EVOS administration recommended not approving
grants as they think enough money was spent in the Kenai area.
EVOS also questioned why the city hadn't worked with Fish and
Game to cut back on the dip net fishery.
Komelis pointed out the City has a Corps permit for the work on
South Spruce but they don't want to fill wetlands.
Thompson arrived at 7'14 p.m.
Komelis stated he will go to Anchorage and make the presentation.
EVOS administration recommended the City ask them to inspect
the sites when they visit the area on August 16.
Jahrig stated he was listening to Sound-Off and some people
complained about the pilings on the beach and the fact they block
access to the beach.
McCune reported the dunes look very good. t3ookey added they
look like they did thirty years ago but there are problems at the far
end with the outside edges coming back in. Jahrig stated if the
erosion at the end is not stopped it will keep coming back. 13ookey
continued, that was probably the biggest concern he had seen
down there during this dip net season because the foot traffic was
coming from the seaward side in.
Bookey noted the beach looked considerably better and just a few
remains and trash were left but nothing like last year. The change
to the mandatory 12 hour parking helped a lot and allowed more
people to use the beach. It was noted the number of people on the
beach was incredible, at least 1000 at a time. Bookey thought the
dip net fishery is getting to an acceptable level but additional
education for the out-of-towners is needed.

Komelis stated if the parking lot is enlarged enough to provide
reasonable parking perhaps a pay parking system could be
developed to pay for future care.
OLD BUSINESS - None
NEW BUSINESS
a. Discussion -- Boardwalk Extension
Jahrig asked if there was any communication with the Kenai River
Classic group. Bookey replied, a proposal was made for several
different things on the fiver to include Cunnmgham Park and the
boardwalk but Alan Norville, the individual who heads up the
group, had a death in his family so no effort is being made at this
point.
Komelis reported someone had asked the City Engineer for a
drawing or a photo to determine boardwalk location, etc. Komelis
continued, ideas included going across the wetlands, doing a gravel
pad, etc.
Eldridge drew a sketch of what he suggested with regard to the
boardwalk. A lengthy discussion took place on various locations
and lengths of the boardwalk. Bookey thought the Commission
would have better success if the project was done in stages. It was
noted the Corps would probably give a permit when the area was
frozen.
Discussion also took place on various funding sources for the
project and Bookey reminded the group that it was suggested
previously to contact Ducks Unlimited regarding duck habitat in
the flats.
ELDRIDGE MOVED THAT A CONCEPTUAL DESIGN BE
DEVELOPED AND VARIOUS SOURCES OF FUNDING BE

Discussion - Peratrovich, Nottingham tk Drage, Inc.
Proposal/Kenai River Bluff Erosion.
Komelis reported that during the budget session Mayor Williams
presented a proposal from Peratrovich, Nottingham & Drage to
perform an erosion study. Komelis understands that Council
HARBOR COMMISSION MEETING

Ce
decided to put some money in the budget which was to be
discussed at a later date.
Bookey stated after reading the proposal from the firm it is not
what he expected. Bookey continued, he was told by Mayor
Williams the firm was going to give prelimin~ information on
where to find materials and some insights on what to do with it for
$5,000.00. Bookey noted William Nelson had applied for a grant to
Alaska Science & Technologies to study lower river bluff erosion.
This is still in the process.
Eldridge thought it could be beneficial to get Peratrovich,
Nottingham & Drage involved for $5,000 as they have done a lot of
riverbank erosion in other places and have gotten much greater
funds for other projects.
After a discussion on the study it was noted the project is not an
emergency situation at this point but the money is in the budget.
If, at a later date, Alaska Science & Technologies tums down the
grant application then Council could go back and explore the
proposal from Peratrovich, Nottingham & Drage.
Jahrig asked if a letter could be drafted to the firm to ask if they
intended to provide the cost for their cellular-style protection.
Komelis read the portion of the letter from Peratrovich,
Nottingham & Drage which addressed the issue.
Additional discussion took place on what exactly was going to be
provided for $5,000.00. McCune thought a cost estimate for a sea
wall and trail for $5,000 was a good deal. Jahrig suggested a
better description of what the firm is offering is required. Komelis
read another portion of the letter which described the exact
location of the trail.

REPORTS
,,,
a. Director
DeForest provided members with a copy of the August calendar and the
July, 1998 monthly report. It was pointed out the library had a total of
10,012 checkouts in July. The increase could be a result of the Sunday
openings. DeForest reported there were 256 people through the library
on the three Sundays the library was open in July. DeForest also noted
several families visited which was nice to see. It was noted that 810
people used the Intemet in July.
LIBRARY COMMISSION MEETING
AUGUST 4, 1998
PAGE ]
DeForest reported discussion is taking place on purchasing a storage
unit to hold the books located in the library conference room and those
stored in the quonset hut. The quonset hut roof is in poor condition.
The storage unit would be approximately 10 x 15.
DeForest reported the library will receive new carpet and the interior will
be painted some time in November. Carpet samples were reviewed and
it was noted the carpet tentatively selected is static-proof and can
withstand the heavy cart loads.
A lengthy discussion took place on painting the library. DeForest stated
all the books and shelving would have to be removed and the library will
be closed for approximately two weeks. The painters and carpet layers
will work in conjunction with one another to complete the projects as
quickly as possible.
DeForest reported discussion is taking place on how the books will be
removed and the two options being considered. The first is to hire a
moving company and store the books in a van. The second option is one
suggested by City Manager Ross and that is to hire students from the
high school. It was pointed out various clubs from the high school are
insured and should be able to move the books. DeForest reiterated the
decision has not been made but she will get some 'quotes from various
movers.
DeForest reported the Friends of the Library will have another book sale
on October 9, 10 and 11 in the library conference room.
Raffle tickets are now on sale for the function in October. The raffle
raises funds for the library addition.
DeForest stated the Friends would like to meet with the Library
Commission at their regular meeting on September 1 to discuss
developing a joint survey of library and non-library users in the
community. Additional items of discussion include the library addition,
hiring a fund raiser, etc.
August 22 is Industry Appreciation Day and the Friends of the Library
will have a booth available.
Brenckle asked if there is any publicity for the 50th Anniversary
celebration. DeForest replied, there hasn't been any publicity to date
but it was noted the State Library representative needs to be contacted
in an effort to arrange for the dignitaries to be present.
Friends of the Library
Report covered by the Library Director.

c. Public Relations Committee
Peters reported he met with the website designer in regards to changing
the library hours to include the Sunday openings. It may be some time
before the change is made.
OLD BUSINESS- None
®
NEW BUSINESS
September 1, 1998 Meeting with Friends of the Library
Peters asked if anyone had anything they would like to see on the
agenda for the meeting with the Friends of the Library on September 1,
1998. Peters also reported that he met informally with the City Manager
and Ross indicated that he was in full agreement with a library addition
but pointed out that the City had no funds available for such a project.
O'Reilly stated the City Manager comment was very discouraging
especially when consideration is being given to hiring a fund raiser.
O'Reilly continued, the fund raiser will look to various entities for
funding which may include federal, state, private corporations, etc. and
if the question of community or municipal support is asked, the answer
will have to be "none." It is unlikely any funding would be provided
without support from the City. 13renckle noted if a matching grant is
found, then the City may reconsider but it is unlikely the City could
fund the entire project.
Discussion took place on the library joining the ChaJlenger Center group
with fund raising efforts. It was determined it would probably not be a
good idea as the Challenger Center has their own problems with the
City. Peters thought the City backed out of funding the Center when
NASA indicated they would fund the project without the City.
O'Reilly suggested a draft job description for the fund raiser be
developed as it is important for the Library Commission to not let the
addition idea die.
The bond issue was again discussed in detail. DeForest reminded the
members the issue failed by 56 votes and it is possible that may have
changed but the City Council would still need to support it.
The hockey rink was discussed and it was noted funds for the facility are
from the Five-Iron Subdivision lot sale.
DeForest reported the maintenance facility is a higher priority than the
library addition. It is possible, however, the majority of the funds for the
LIBRARY COMMISSION MEETING
AUGUST 4, 1998
PAGE 3
®
facility would come from airport funds. It is intended the facility will be
built on airport lands and a portion of it would house airport equipment.
O'Reilly suggested, if the Dairy Queen was given to the library perhaps a
book store could go in there.
Discussion took place again on the carpet and painting of the library.
DeForest noted $25,000 is set aside for moving the books. Brenckle
asked if other arrangements were made to move the books could the
money be given to the library addition. DeForest answered, the moving
has to be done by an insured group which is either a moving company or
a group from the school. It was also pointed out the books would have
to be stored somewhere once packed and moved out.
COMMISSIONER'S COMMENTS / OUESTIONS
Commissioner Rodes stated she was looking forward to the meeting with the
Friends of the Library.
Commissioner Brenckle stated she will be in Washington DC for Thanksgiving
so may not be here when the work begins on the Library. Brenckle also
thought there may be someone in the community who would like to have their
name attached to the library: perhaps a benefactor-type situation.
Commissioner O'Reilly suggested the direction the Commission .should take
with regard to the library addition could be determined in the meeting with the
Friends of the Library.
Chairman Peters stated he is also looking forward to meeting with the Friends
of the Library.

Industry Appreciation Days is scheduled for Saturday, August 22 and the
Parks and Recreation Department will have a tent. Frates asked if
anyone is interested in helping out at the booth for a couple of hours to
contact him at 283-3855. Frates also suggested displays and a sign-up
sheet for volunteers be made available.
Kenai City Council Liaison
Swamer stated she and Overturf thought of additional areas for roses in
the City. These locations are at the edge of Leif Hansen Park and by the
Visitors Center or Paradisos to provide a wind block. ·
The banners look nice. Swarner noted the Homer banners had "Thank
you for visiting" on the backside and thought it would be nice to have
some banners saying the same thing for Kenai.
®
QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS
Chairperson Hett reported there are only two meetings left before the
Christmas break.
Frates asked if anyone had any suggestions after the Homer garden tour.
Brown suggested rock gardens be considered and using drift wood as focal
points in city gardens.
Frates suggested a flower bed be built to contain unique flowers which are
labeled for identification purposes. This would eliminate the task of trying to
label all the flowers in town. It was noted this was a good idea and perhaps the
bed could be placed by the Visitors Center.

ITEM B:
SCHEDULED PUBLIC COMMENTS
,,
B-I.
Representative Mark Hodgins- Economic Development District
Hodgins explained he wanted to speak to council in regard to the city's Exxon Valdez
Oil Spill (EVOS) project and economic development concerns for the area.
Hodgins distributed a partial list of companies of which the State of Alaska
Permanent Fund owns stock. He added, he spoke with several contacts of several of
the companies in regard to ownership of stock and how the Fund's ownership could
be used as a tool to encourage interest in local companies developing a working
relationship with the stock companies, i.e. inclusion on bidder lists, etc. Hodgins
also suggested interest could be sparked for entrepreneurs to move to the
community. He added, he believed components and offices of businesses could
operate in the Kenai/Nildski area and could attract new dollars to the area without
an outlay of infrastructure. Hodgins also noted he plans to contact off companies
and international businesses doing business in Russia and inform them of what our
area has to offer. Hodgins added, he has already discussed his ideas with the
Economic Development District who will have a staff person help him make the
contacts as well as the Kenai Chamber of Commerce Economic Development
Committee.
Hodgins also reported he contacted EVOS in regard to the city's application for grant
funding for improvements to the north and south sides of the Kenai River due to the
impact of the dip net fishery to the beaches. Hodgins noted, initially the city's
application was denied because the scorer felt the city had not done enough to
mitigate the dip net fishery. The application was then reviewed by the Board and
denied again for this year. After discussions with Keith Komelis and City Manager
Ross, the matter was placed on the Board's August 13 agenda. A deference will be
requested to the September 16 meeting when members of the EVOS organization will
be in Kenai to review the area.
Hodgins stated he believed the city will be able to get funding from EVOS for the
north side project. However, EVOS' main concern is whether wetlands will be filled.
He noted pictures prepared by Komelis show the damage already done to the
wetlands and also depict the need for additional parking space.

Ordinance No. 1790-98 - Amending KMC 1.80.010 Increasing Mayor's
Salax~ to $1,000 Per Month and Council Members' Salaries to $500 Per
Month.
MOTION:
Councilwoman Swarner MOVED for approval of Ordinance No. 1790-98 and
Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion.
There were no public comments. Williams requested council to consider an
amendment to change the effective date of July 1, 1999 (included in the body of the
ordinance) to November 5, 1998 (immediately after the swearing in of the newly
elected council and mayor). He noted, he was not concerned whether actual.
payment would not begin until July 1, 1999, but because of annuities he discussed
with council in .prior meetings, he would like the effective date changed.
MOTION TO AMEND:
Councilman Measles MOVED to amend the effective date to November 5, 1998 and
Councilman Smalley SECONDED the motion.
Councilman Measles noted a typographical correction needed in the last sentence of
Section A, i.e. changing the word 'and' provided to "as" provided.
VOTE ON AMENDMENT:
Moore: Absent Measles: Yes Bannock:
Smalley: Yes Williams: Yes Bookey:
Swamer: Yes
Yes
Yes
MOTION PASSED UNANIMOUSLY.
Councilwoman Swarner stated she believes Williams works very hard at being the
city's mayor and deserves a raise, however is concerned future mayors may not' take
as active of a role and would be compensated at a higher level than the effort put into
the position.
Williams stated he listed to "Sound-OfF on the radio and heard no adverse comment
from the public who called in. Williams added, there is always the chance someone
will be elected who is not going to be as active and it would then be the council's
decision whether to change the ordinance again. Williams also noted, the last time
the salaries were changed was 1984.
Smalley stated he thought there would be more public input on the subject. He
added, he received comments from two people who had no problem with the
proposed raise. He added, when looking at the compensation for how much time the
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
AUGUST 5, 1998
Page 4
council members put into the job, the salary probably covers their costs. However,
Williams' costs are probably not covered for the amount of time he devotes to the
office. Smalley added, he would support the ordinance. Williams added, he thought
the raise in compensation may act as an incentive for other citizens to decide to run
for city office.
Attorney Graves noted he checked the original wording included in Section A and it
was presented as it is now stated in the Code. However, he has the ability to make
typographical changes and would make the correction.

Motion for Adoption
MOTION:
Councilman Measles MOVED for adoption of Ordinance 1792-98 and Councilman
Smalley 8ECONDIgD the motion.
There were no public comments. Measles asked where the gas line ends at this time.
City Engineer La Shot answered it is now situated across Lawton, Linwood,
Candlelight and Baker. At this time, if there is gas at the golf course it would come
down and across from the other direction.
Bookey asked if gas is already at the property, why does the city have to pay for the
upgrade. He added, he believed Enstar should take care of the upgrade at their cost.
Ross answered, typically when developing a subdivision, the subdivider puts up the
money to run the line. Once the lots are sold and developed, the city will receive
repayment of their costs for placing the line. Bookey stated, when an existing line is
there and not capable of serving the lots there, the gas or electric companies upgrade
at their costs. Ross stated, that would happen if the line was in front of the lots.
There is no line in front of the lots.
Williams asked ff there was a necessity the city put up the $15,000 or could an
arrangement be made with the gas company. Ross answered, La Shot had been
involved with discussions with the gas company. However, there is no main line in
front of the lots. If there was, he believed Bookey would be correct and the gas
company would have to upgrade at their cost.
Measles stated there is natural gas at the golf course clubhouse and at the Offers
Baseball Park (both on the same side of Lawton). He asked if a line was placed under
the road to those locations. La Shot stated, the main l/ne would have to be extended
and the closest to the properties would be at Linwood, Candlelight and Baker.
Another option would be if the city would not extend the lines prior to sale, it would
then be up to the individual property owners to have the lines placed.
Bookey stated he would not want to do that as he thought the best way to sell the
lots is with the gas lines extended. If adminiatration is sure this is what needs to be
done, he would agree. Measles asked ff the gas company was aware the other tract
would also be up for sale in the furore and if they are going to extend the main line to
that side of the road, they need to keep the future sale in mind and make sure the
line is large enough to handle that property as well.
It was also noted there is development across from the properties which is being
served by natural gas lines as well. Ross stated administration would again verify
where the natural gas lines are placed and inform the gas company of the plans for
these properties.

Williams asked administration to consider, when it appears the multi-use facility will
be built, a design/build RFP for that building. He added, doing it this way may bring
in interest of other contractors. Ross stated, the multi-use facility user group had
already discussed this possibility and decided, due to the phasing of the building, a
design/building RFP would not work. He added, the user group want to see the
initial design process show an end product and then bid it in the phases that can be
affordable. Ross continued, the consensus of the group was to do a design and then
build the facility in phases.
Measles stated, he agreed with their decision. He added, ff it was a total package,
there would be a benefit to a design/build RFP. However, with a design/build in
phases, the same contractor may not be building all the phases of the building and
that could bring about legal problems and could confuse the issue.

Bannock asked to what the contribution would be comparable. Komelis explained,
the bid was for about $4,000 including materials. With the city purchasing the
materials, costs would be approximately $3,000.
Bannock stated he would vote against the resolution because, in his mind, he has set
a $1,000 limit to donations. He added, with nothing against Mr. Zubeck, he would
respect~lly vote no. Williams stated he would vote for passage of the resolution due
to years of service to and interest in the community from Zubeck. He added, he felt
the passage of the resolution is a way to thank Zubeck for the offer.

Ross referred to a copy of the proposed contract which was included in the council
packet. He noted, the contract was in the same form which council had given
preliminary approval. The only change, he explained, is in Paragraph 13. The
original wording made reference to the Open Meetings Act. The KVCC Board had
some difficulty with that because it does not apply to them as their relationship with
the city is contractual. The wording was changed to require their Board to have open
meetings.

Approval- 1998 Land Sale- Five Irons Heights Subdivision Lots.
Ross reported he received correspondence from the federal government who had
several additional concerns. However, the letter also stated the "...city may remove
Blocks 1 and 2 of Five Iron Heights Subdivision from 6F2 protection and dispose of
them as proposed." Ross 'Continued, the for sale signs are ready to be placed but
there is a variance required from the Planning & Zoning Commission. Action on the
variance request has been delayed due to the Commission not having a quorum for
their last meeting. The matter will be placed on the August 12 agenda for their
consideration.
Ross reported, language indicating a deed restriction upon conveyance will be added
to the sales brochure. He continued, the deed restriction will be a covenant the city
can enforce as well as the property owners. The covenant will restrict the use of the
lots to one-family dwellings. He added, the property is inside the Recreation Zone
and if the covenant is not included, someone could ask for a recreation business on
site. The city, as the owner of the land, can include the covenant on those lots (not
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
AUGUST 5, 1998
Page 12
Block 3). Ross referred to the draft brochure included in the packet and noted, there
were no other changes to it and the methodology of the sale will be like that for lots
in Inlet Woods.
Williams reported he has had conversations with several individuals who would have
interest in purchasing a lot and building a townhouse and/or tri-plex townhouse.
Williams asked if it is wise to limit the type of construction to one-family dwelling,
noting no commercial businesses would be allowed and construction would be based
on the present zoning laws with conditional use permits, etc. Ross stated those are
arguments that could be discussed when plans are made for the future development
of Block 3 because it is being set aside for that type of development. However, the
restrictions would only apply to individual lots on Blocks 1 and 2.
Bookey stated he always thought Blocks 1 and 2 would be restricted to one-family,
high-end residential dwellings. He added, allowing duplexes or triplexes on the lots
urill limit property owners on the fight or left from building a $250,000 house. He
noted, there are only 13 lots for sale in those blocks and Block 3 can be used for
multi-family dwellings. Measles asked ff the lots were too small for construction of
tri-plexes. Williams stated they are 16,000 to 19,000 square feet.
Bannock stated he would not support restricting the properties for several reasons:
a person still has the ability to build a large one-family dwelling and when the
Recreation Zone was created, this was one of the pieces of ground that was used as a
'test" case for what a recreational zone would look like. Bannock continued, he
appreciated Block 3 being earmarked for multi-family use, he would not favor council
limiting Blocks 1 or 2 from the Recreational Zone.
Smalley stated he believed it unfortunate the Commission had not discussed the
matter. He added, knowing their discussions over the years in regard to other
subdivisions, he felt they would also be considering single-family dwellings. Williams
asked if council would object to sending the matter back to the Commission for
review. Ross stated doing that would delay putting the lots out for sale another two
weeks. That would be council's decision.
Bannock asked what the question was to the Commission for consideration. Ross
answered, administration is requesting a variance for lot size. It was explained the
variance request is to make the lots smaller, based on the Recreational Zone.
Bannock suggested instead of changing the rules and making a special covenant, the
zone be changed. Ross stated, that had been considered, however with the process
required, it would delay the sale for another year.
Williams referred to Lot 6, Block 1 and Lot 1, Block 2 and the old fight-of-way from
Candlelight to the golf course. He asked why it was shown with a dotted line. City
Engineer La Shot answered it has been retained for drainage. Williams asked if it
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
AUGUST 5, 1998
Page 13
as ever to be considered an access easement. La Shot stated no. He added, it is
approximately 40 ft. altogether. Ross noted, the plat had been fried and recorded in
order to submit it.
Smalley questioned whether there is drainage in that area now. La Shot answered,
the intersection at Candlelight requires it to be there for drainage. He added, water
collects there and seeps into the ground. If it was given up, there could be a
problem. Williams noted, the drainage easement is actually a part of Lot 6 and Lot 1,
but will be retained as an easement. Bookey asked ff it was so noted on the plat as a
drainage easement and not a public right-of-way. Bookey added, if it doesn't
specifically state it as a drainage easement and is noted as a public easement, it will
stay a public easement.
La Shot stated he did not believe it was a public easement. It is actually platted part
of the lot with easements on the side the property. Williams stated, the problem is it
will be perceived as a public corridor. Williams added, he would prefer to see it as a
ten foot utility easement. Also, the useful area of the lot will increase and would
bring a more premium price. Williams continued, these are the two largest lots.
Ross noted, the lot sizes were increased because of the drainage easement. He
added, the lots were resized and re-platted since the original design. La Shot added,
if the 20 foot easements were subtracted out of the two lots, the lot size would be the
same width as the other lots.
Smalley asked how the Notice of Land Sale will be handled if the Commission needs
to review it first. Ross stated, a restriction will be needed on the deed when the
variance is approved. The restriction will be the lots are reserved as residential lots.
This will take them out of the permitted use of recreational/commercial. Ross asked
if council was accepting of placing a restriction on the deed. Attorney Graves stated,
the issue would be if council wished solely to restrict the lots to residential use or
residential use and single-family dwellings.
Ross asked if there was a consensus of council to restrict the development to
residential use. Bannock asked if, by definition, residential use would eliminate the
possibility of a home occupation permit or conditional use permit. Smalley answered
no. Bannock asked what it meant if the lots were restricted specifically to residential
use in an area defined as recreational. Measles answered, to eliminate having
someone build a pro shop on one of the lots or anything else allowed under
recreational.
Williams added, someone might want to build a large house and open it as a bed and
breakfast which would require a conditional use permit. Bannock agreed, but if it
was determined to be strictly residential, it would still be allowed. Bannock added~
he understood the comments to mean that calling the lots residential would
eliminate any activity taking place that is not done within a house. Smalley stated, a
conditional use permit speaks to what is allowable, but basically is an activity that
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
AUGUST 5, 1998
Page 14
has no visible impact to the general area. Bannock stated there is a conflict with the
nature of the recreational zone. He added, he was present when the recreational
zone was discussed and developed and these things were discussed. He added, he
could not support the restriction. However, if the zone is changed, he would support
investigating it. Bannock noted, there are only two areas in the city that are zoned
recreational and now council wants to cut it up. He added, he did not want to take
the recreational zone to change it for this piece of property. If council doesn't want to
see the things go in a recreational zone that are allowed, the zone should be changed.
Williams asked Bannock if he recalled whether the Commission, at the time the zone
was developed, intentionally meant to cover an application like Five Iron Heights.
Bannock answered, he remembered discussing two pieces of ground: at or near the
golf course and at or near Angler Acres. He added, the discussion took place that
this would be the applicable thing to do if development took place around the
circumference of the golf course.
Ross asked if the recreation zone developed there because of the BOR restrictions.
Bannock answered he did not know.
Ross suggested, if the lots are put out for sale zoned recreation and do nothing to
preclude the recreation businesses, it will hurt the value of the sale and maybe have
people's expectations not met for the future. Bannock requested a short break.
BREAK TAKEN: 8:43 P.M.
BACK TO ORDER: 8:56 P.M.
Measles asked if two separate covenants and restrictions could be placed on the two
blocks. He continued, allowing multi-family dwellings on Block 1, up to two-family
(duplex) dwellings and restrict Block 2 to single-family residences only. Graves
answered, as the subdivider, the city could place those covenants. Measles added,
because of the small size of the lots, he was concerned that a triplex with three
garages, three families, and three or more vehicles, the lot will be filled and have no
yard, trees, etc.
Bannock stated, the Planning & Zoning Commission would still have to approve the
variance that will allow for lots smaller than allowed by code. He added, he believed
that will only compound a mistake. Williams added, the lot sizes Bannock was
calling for were a special lot size instituted by the Commission specifically to this
area. He added, the minimum lot size in the city is 7,200 square feet. The lots in
Blocks 1 and 2 are twice the minimum lot size required by code in any other area of
the city. Williams added, 15,000 square foot lots are pretty good sized lots.
Smalley stated he agreed with Measles as far as Blocks 1 and 2, with exception of
looking at the size of the lots. He added, even though they are close to the club
house, Block 2 has the larger lots and would probably be better used for no more
than a duplex. Block 1 would be better for single-family dwellings. Measles
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
AUGUST 5, 1998
Page 15
suggested, for that type of an area and type of single-family homes that will probably
be built, the larger lots will be more desirable to the single-family residences than the
smaller ones will be.
Williams stated, sometimes covenants are added to place a minimum value on the
structure built. Swamer stated, across the street from some of the lots would be
dwellings that would not fit into the minimum value. She added, she would rather
have restrictions placed as suggested by Measles than placing a dollar amount. Also,
she agreed Block 2 should be single-family dwellings and Block 1 restricted to
duplexes or single-family dwellings. Swamer added, she also wanted to make sure
the easement is a drainage easement only.
Williams noted, council seemed to be interested in splitting the covenants, i.e. a
maximum of up to duplexes built on Lots 1 through 6, Block 1 and single-family
dwellings only on Lots 1 through 7, Block 2. Williams asked Ross if the variance still
needed to go before the Planning & Zoning Commission. Ross answered, yes.
Williams stated the matter should be sent to Planning & Zoning with the
recommendation from council that a covenant should be included on the deed and
enforceable by the city.
Bookey asked if Administration had any concerns about placing the restrictions on
the deed. Ross answered, no. He added, the covenant they had discussed was
restricting them to single-family dwellings. As owners of the property, the council
can include covenants and the advertisement will note it.
Measles stated he would personally prefer all the lots to be single-family. However,
he agrees there is a lot of interest in the community to build duplexes and tri-plexes.
He added, he would be against anything larger than a duplex being built on the lots.
Williams asked if residential use only remains. Answer was yes.
Bannock stated, with those proposed changes, more than half of the recreation zone
will be discarded. Williams noted, during the development of the zone, it is not
known whether the Commission had considered Five Iron Heights or intended to
consider it. Also the plat had not yet been created. Measles added, with the BOR
restrictions, it could not have been zoned anything other than recreational.
Bannock stated, though those are very true statements, it is just as true to say, by
calling it a recreational zone and putting these covenants on them, half of what the
code says is allowable will be stripped. He added, he believed that is a poor decision.
Smalley stated, as the subdivider of the property, the council is allowed to do that as
any subdivider is allowed to do. Bannock agreed, but added, he personally felt the
role of the subdivider ends when the property is sold.
Williams stated, as council, they have the right to protect the integrity of the city's
treasury, the value of its lands, and the citizens' interests. He added, by placing
covenants on these properties that the city intends to enforce, they are doing that.
KENAI CITY COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
AUGUST 5, 1998
Page 16
Bannock stated, the council does not enforce covenants anywhere else in the city.
Wi!l/ams added, that is because the city is not required to do so. In regard to this
property, the city is the property owner. Bannock added, the city will not be the
property owner after the properties are sold.
Williams stated, generally, after covenants are drawn, the developer relinquishes to
the property owners' association within the subdivision, the fight to enjoy, enforce or
eliminate covenants as they see fit, once more than 51% of the properties have been
sold. Williams suggested writing, within the covenants, once all lots in Five Iron
Heights are sold, the city will relinquish its right to enforcement of covenants and
should the property owners of the subdivision choose to create a home owners'
association, they then have the responsibility for covenant protection.
Bannock stated he would support that more. He asked, when it is said the city has
"the right to" does that mean the city reserves the fight to go back and enforce the
covenants. Williams explained, the city would relinquish its fights once the lots are
all sold. The property owners have the right to create their own property owners'
association within the subdivision.
Measles suggested it should be "relinquished" on the final development of the lots,
not the sale of the lots. Williams agreed. Measles added, in this way, the city would
have some hold over the way the lots are developed. Bannock stated he liked that
better in regard to the covenants.
Williams noted discussion found:
a. Maximum of one or two-family dwellings on Block 1;
b. Single-family dwellings only on Block 2;
c. Covenants that will be enforced by the city until all lots are developed at
which time the authority will be relinquished to a home owners' association.
Williams asked if there was a consensus. He noted there seemed to be one, however
a motion was requested.
MOTION:
Councilman Measles MOVED for the administration to proceed as discussed tonight
and Councilwoman Swamer SECONDED the motion. Councilman Smalley requested

in the way the runways were designed and in doing so, some additional signage was
needed. He noted, the city had originally recommended and FAA had only recently
decided to make the change. La Shot added, there would also be some fie-downs
added to the apron in front of the gravel strip.

I-1. Mayor
a. Congressman Young Letter- Williams reviewed the letter from
Congressman Young responding to his request for funding for the future
construction of a new international airport in Kenai (added as Information Item No. 7
at the beginning of the meeting). He noted, the letter explained the procedure for
receiving AIP funds and that the city is scheduled to receive $677,757 in each of the
fiscal years 1999 through 2002.
In response to Young's stating the FY9 appropriations process had already been
reported to the House, Williams suggested a future request could be made. Williams
added, he believed Young should be put on notice the city continues to be interested
in receiving funding and would like to be included in the appropriation requests next
year. Williams also suggested the city make their request again next year at an
earlier date and go forward with the baseline study.
There were no comments from council.

Measles - Welcomed Atha and noted he would be seeing more of him as the
Airport Commission liaison.
Bannock- Welcomed Atha.
Smalley- Welcomed Atha as well and congratulated Pat Porter and Joe
Harrison for their many years of dedication and work for the City.
Smalley also noted there is interest from a Charter School to move into the Kenai
Elementary School but the School District has denied their request. Smalley
requested the city send a letter to the School District and suggest the Charter School
be allowed to move into the building.
Williams reported People Count has dissolved and will be reorganized, but will be
housed in a different place. The Alternative School will be moving into the area
formerly used by People Count. He added, the remainder of the school is mostly
used for storage. He is aware the Borough Space Allocation Committee did inspect
the building, but he was not aware of their findings°
Ross requested the Charter School's representative give him a copy of the Charter
School's written request for use of the space. From that information, he will compose
a letter and forward it to the School District.
Smalley also reported he thought the city was looking beautiful and thanked the
Parks & Recreation Department and Beautification Committee for their efforts.

Crow Court Assessment District
On June 22, 1998, the City received a petition for paving of Crow Court
as shown on the attached drawing. The petitioners have requested that
an assessment district be formed for this purpose. The percentage that
is proposed for this assessment district is 25% of project costs. This is
the percentage designated in Resolution No. 92-26.
Also attached is the preliminary assessment roll that identifies the
owners and properties involved. There are eight properties, requiring
four or more owners to sign. Eight owners of property actually signed
the petition.
Financing of the project is proposed as coming from the Capital Matching
Grants Program (which has been dedicated to road improvements),
property owners' assessments, and a contribution from the General
Fund. Estimated costs of the paving project have been prepared by Mr.
Kornelis and are attached. Apportionment of the costs of paving is also
in Mr. Kornelis' attachment. A summary of the estimated cost
apportionment is as follows'
Memorandum to Mayor and Council
August 11, 1998
Page 2 of 2
Capital Matching Grants Program (70%)
General Fund Contribution (5%)
Assessed to Property Owners (25%)
Total Estimated Costs
42,000
3,ooo
s,ooo
60,000
The Administration agrees with the scope of the project and believes that
it is worthwhile. Crow Court is an unpaved cul-de-sac off of Tinker Lane.
All lots on Crow Court now have residential structures on them. There
are no foreseen needs for future pavement cuts. Paving of Crow Court
will result in some reduced maintenance as well as dust control. The
project is proposed with curbs and gutters and will improve drainage on
Crow Court.
The costs shown, and the apportionment of costs, are based on
estimates. Actual project costs will be assessed after completion of the
project.

RESOLUTION NO. 92-26
A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI, ALASKA ESTABLISHING
A GENERAL POLICY REGARDING COSTS TO BE ASSESSED TO BENEFITED
PROPERTIES IN SPECIAL ASSESSMENT DISTRICTS.
WHEREAS, by KMC 16.10.070, the City Council has the authority to
determine the percentage of costs to be assessed in special assessment
districts; and
WHEREAS, reduced State financing for public improvement projects makes
it necessary that more costs be assessed to benefited properties; and
WHEREAS, citizens desiring to form assessment districts have a need to
know in advance of the petitioning process the portion of the project
that is likely to be assessed.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF KENAI,
ALASKA, that:
Section 1: The policy of the City Council regarding percentages of
costs to be assessed in special assessment districts, is~a general
rule. It is meant to inform the City administration and citizens of a
usual rule to be followed, and it applies to all types of
improvements. The Council reserves the right to apply percentages
different from those that follow based upon unique characteristics of
each project. It is not implied that the Council must form an
assessment district with each project. The policy is subject to all
State, City Charter, and City Municipal Code requirements and
restrictions.
Section 2: In developed areas that include numerous property
owners, each benefiting somewhat equally, the assessment rate will be
25% of all eligible costs. The Council intends that all eligible
costs include the entire project costs defined by KMC 16.05.090.
Section 3' In partially developed or undeveloped areas that
include one or a small number of property owners, the assessment rate
will be 100% of all eligible costs. This is the rate that will apply
in situations where the owner or owners are essentially acting as
developers, with the intent of marketing and profiting from the
developed land. The owners may have to waive the limitations placed
on assessments, as provided by KMC 16.05.010(b) and Section 7-3 of the
City Charter. In addition, the City may require cash or other assets
to be advanced or pledged to the City as security that the assessments
will be paid. Generally, the unsecured portion of the assessments
should not exceed 30% of the cost of the improvements. The City may
require that the owner or owners enter into a contractual relationship
with the City to ensure payment of the assessments.

Quarterly Investment Report
At June 30, 1998 the City investment portfolio is $ 33,801,197.49 at amortized cost and the
current rate of return is 5.88%. This compares favorably with the budgeted rate of return which
was 5.8%. Rates for securities with maturities of two years or less declined slightly during the
quarter. Interest rates are generally predicted to remain stable with rates between 4.75% and
5.75% for the range of maturities that we invest in.
The portfolio information attached shows the amortized cost, market value and par value of each
secudty in the portfolio at June 30, 1998. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement 31 in response to the Orange County investment debacle. These new accounting
rules require that investments be recorded in the financial statements at market value. This
means that there could be loses or gains recognized at year end which will not actually come to
pass. If interest rates have risen since a security was purchased, the market value of the
security will less than when it was purchased. In this case a loss would have to be recorded.
Conversely, if interest rates have decreased since a secudty was purchased the market value of
the security will be greater than when purchased. You can see from the attached portfolio list
that we have securities that are in both categories. The thing to keep in mind is that in reality we
will probably not have a gain or loss caused by interest rate changes because we almost always
hold our securities to maturity. If held to matudty the security will pay the par value.
The make up of the portfolio, at market value, on June 30, 1998 is:

Proposed gravel road in l zembek
Refuge draws national attention
Stiff opposition,
despite minimal
impact to refuge
by Tadd Owens
RDC Special Assistant
A proposed 27-mile gravel road
connecting two small communities in a
remote corner of Alaska has attracted
the attention of prominent newspapers
from coast to coast, received threats of
veto from President Clinton, and
become the focus of fund-raising
campaigns for several national
environmental organizations.
The one-lane, gravel road would
establish a ground link between the
isolated communities of King Cove and
Cold Bay. King Cove residents currently
have no safe way of reaching the all-
weather airport in Cold Bay for medical
evacuation to Anchorage during
frequent harsh weather. Local residents
say the road would greatly enhance
public safety and improve access.
However, the surface link between
the two communities has attracted stiff
opposition from environmental groups
.as ten miles of the road would be built
inside the southeastern edge of the
~)300,000-acre Izembek National Wildlife
Refuge. Seven miles of the route are
within the refuge's designated
Wilderness area.

A busy summer at RDC
The summer of 1998 has been a
busy one at RDC with special projects
and issue work. June started with the
6th Annual Coal Classic Golf Tourna-
ment featuring 36 teams benefitting
AMEREF. This year's golftournament,
which RDC helps coordinate each year,
was the Alaska Coal Association's larg-
est. A big thank you goes to all those
participants in this year's tournament!
Later in June, RDC held its 24th
Annual Meeting. Over 40 board mem-
bers attended the business meeting
while some 300 RDC members turned
out for the luncheon which focused on~
the impact of the Asian financial crisis
:.
on Alaska's basic industries.
As many of you may have read in '
last month's Resource Review, RDC
had the unique opportunity of helping
host a tour of Alaska for three members
of the Federal Energy Regulatory Com-
mission. This was an important oppor-
tunity to help showcase Alaska before
federal regulators.
Other big efforts this summer in-
cluded a review of the Northstar DEIS.
RDC, as well as many of its members,
testified at public hearings in Anchor-
age and Fairbanks in support of devel-
oping this new oil field, located six miles
offshore Prudhoe Bay. The hearings
were well attended and showed broad
support amOng Alaska industries for
this project.
RDC also sUpported an Alaska
exemption from EPA standards for Iow-
sulfur diesel fuel. Implementing the use
of Iow-Sulfur diesel fuel in Alaska would
have a big impact on Alaska refineries
and many small communities which
utilize diesel generators for energy
production and cannot afford new Iow-
sulfur generators.
There's a host of other issues our
staff has been tackling this summer,
including the National Marine Fisheries
Service's (NMFS) recommendations on
Essential Fish Habitat, proposed
revisions to Alaska's water quality
standards, new regulatory initiatives
under the Alaska Coastal Management
program and implementation of the new
federal clean water action plan in Alaska.
Coming up this month, RDC and
the Alaska Support Industry Alliance
will co-host a special lunch in Anchor-
age featuring Idaho Congresswoman
Helen Chenoweth.
We'll keep you posted on other
events, including RDC's fall board trir'
to Nome and the annual conference
All of us at RDC hope you are
having a great summer and we look
forward to seeing you at a Thursday
breakfast meeting this fall!
.M urkowski pushes new seismic
mapping of ANWR's coastal plain
Senator Frank Murkowski is seek-
ing legislation to open the coastal plain
of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to
advance seismic mapping.
The legislation is sure to touch off
another battle in 1999 with the Clinton
administration and environmentalists
who maintain that no oil drilling should
occur in ANWR regardless of how much
oil may be in place there.
The U.S. Geological Survey re-
leased a report in May revealing there
may be larger quantities of oil beneath
the coastal plain than previously thought.
The new assessment estimates that up
to 11.8 billion barrels of oil may lie under
the area. A 1987 study estimated up to
9.2 billion barrels could be in place.
The new report also estimated that
85 percent of the in-place oil is likely to
Page 2 / RESOURCE REVIEW / August 1998
be concentrated in the northwest sector
of the coastal plain, just east of existing
North Slope infrastructure, instead of in
the isolated southeast corner as
originally thought by authors of the 1987
study.
The new assessment was con-
ducted over three years and utilized
data collected in 1984-85.
Murkowski's bill would seek con-
gressional approval for a new round of
seismic work using advanced three-
dimensional underground mapping. The
new technology, not available in previ-
ous studies, could erase much of tt
uncertainty about ANWR's oil potential.
Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt has
pledged to seek a presidential veto of
any legislation pertaining to new seis-
mic work.
Partnership
works for the
collective good
In the shadows of the DeLong
Mountains of the Brooks Range, two
worlds have come together in a part-
n. ership to produce zinc, create jobs
and improve the quality of life in a
region of Alaska that has typically had a
high unemployment rate.
For more than a decade, NANA,
the region's Native corporation, and
Cominco Alaska have joined together
'to develop and operate the Red Dog
~,.Mine in Northwest Alaska. Both
Cominco and NANA are not only proud
of the fact that Red Dog leads the world
in zinc production, but is a time-tested
model of working cooperatively with
indigenous people.
In 1978, NANA made its most eco-
nomically-significant land selection
when it claimed the 120 square-mile
block of land overlying the Red Dog
zinc and lead ore body. NANA chose
Cominco as its partner because of its
worldwide experience and Arctic ex-
pertise in developing mineral deposits,
as well as its willingness to respect the
traditional way of life of Native Alaskans
who have lived in the region for hun-
dreds of years.
NANA and its new partner worked
to overcome construction and start-up
challenges in a remote Arctic site. The
decision to ship the concentrate from
the existing port site on the Chukchi
Sea involved a land trade to secure an
easement from the federal government
· allowing 20 miles of a 52-mile road to
_..~Mtraverse Krusenstern National
Cape
onument. Road construction required
33 permits from seven different state
and federal agencies.
The Red Dog zinc and lead ore
body is the world's largest zinc deposit,
Using the Peninsula Airways hangar in Anchorage as a back drop, Governor Knowles
signed a bill earlier this summer reauthorizing the bonding authority of AIDEA. The bill,
sponsored by Knowles, included a provision which authorizes bonds to help enhance
operations at the AIDEA-owned port serving the Red Dog Mine. Pictured from left are Randy
Simmons, AIDEA, Edward Rasmuson, National Bank of Alaska, Wilson Hughes, Chair of
the AIDEA Board, Governor Knowles, Orin Seybert, Peninsula Airways, RDC President
Allen Bingham and Representative Ethan Berkowitz.
containing almost 30 percent of all zinc
in the western world. Over 3 million tons
of ore are mined annually at Red Dog
and milled into concentrate. This prod-
uct is transported year-round to Red
Dog's tidewater port, which is ice free
for about four months of the year. When
the port is icebound, the concentrate is
stored in two of the largest buildings in
Alaska.
Under a development agreement
signed well before production began in
1989, Cominco operates the mine and
markets the concentrates while training
and employing shareholders of NANA,
This agreement has allowed the people
of this region to pursue their traditional
lifestyle while receiving training and
good-paying jobs. More than 55 per-
cent of Red Dog's work force consists
of NANA shareholders.
As Red Dog operations expand
and grow, both Cominco and NANA are
confident their relationship will continue
to prosper. The mine is in the final
stages of a construction project aimed
at boosting production by 40 percent.
Part of this confidence is based on
the support Red Dog continues to re-
ceive from the State, particularly the
Alaska Industrial Development and
Export Authority (AIDEA), an agency
that has played a key role in the suc-
cess of the NANA-Cominco partner-
ship. AIDEA issued bonds to help pay
for the $180 million transportation sys-
tem, which includes the road to tide-
water and the port facility to ship the
mined product to smelters. Cominco
has been repaying the bonds with inter-
est on a guaranteed payback schedule
set through user and export fees.
AIDEA continues to play a pivotal
role as it moves forward on authorizing
new bonds to enhance operations at its
Chukchi seaport to handle the projected
increase in production at Red Dog.
Governor Knowles, the Legislature,
Cominco and NANA deserve credit for
fostering a partnership that encourages
new development and works for the
collective good.

King Cove officials insist road is a
genuine pubfic safety issue and bristle
at claims that the surface link would
sacrifice the refuge and harm wildlife
Izembek road
stirs big debate
(Continued from page 1)
Opponents believe the road would
sacrifice the refuge and put wildlife and
waterfowl in jeopardy. They claim the
public safety issue cited by proponents
of the road is really a ruse to open the
area to hunting and fishing.
King Cove and Aleutians East
Borough officials, however, insist the
road is a genuine public safety issue. In
some medical emergencies, it could
make the difference between life and
death. Lost in the debate, they say, is
the fact the proposed route for the road
avoids primary nesting habitat, feeding
and denning areas. Proponents also
note the new road would cross less
than one percent of the refuge and that
13.75 miles of existing roads already
exist inside the Wilderness area itself.
These roads were built during the World
War II era and 75 percent of them are in
use today by local residents and tourists.
King Cove and Cold Bay, towns
with respective populations of 800 and
100, are located on the western edge of
the Alaska Peninsula nearly 625 miles
southwest of Anchorage. These two
communities are accessible only by
plane or boat. This region of Alaska is
subject to some of the most extreme
weather conditions anywhere in the
world. Rain is common and high seas
and hurricane-force gales are frequent.
In the case of a medical emergency,
victims are transported from King Cove
to Cold Bay by either plane or boat in
order to reach superior hospital facilities
in Anchorage. Air travel between King
Cove and Cold Bay during severe
weather is extremely dangerous. Since
1980, 11 people have died attempting
to get in or out of King Cove.
King Cove's port serves as a service center for the region's commercial salmon fleet.
Page 4 / RESOURCE REVIEW / August 1998
The King Cove airport is rated among the
most daJbgerous in Alaska. An aircraft with
a bent propeller sits off the airstrip.
King Cove's airport is located in a
steep valley surrounded on three sides
by mountains and perpetually affected
by venturi-magnified winds. Weather
hazards hamper aircraft operations
nearly every day. Air access to and
from King Cove at night is impossible.
Meanwhile, Cold Bay, 20 miles
northwest of King Cove, is the site of
one of Alaska's largest airstrips. The
Cold Bay airport is an all-weather facility
with full instrumentation, boasting the
state's third largest runway at over
10,000 feet with a crosswind runway
over 5,000 feet. The Cold Bay faci,
serves as an alternate landing
destination for jets flying to and from
Anchorage and is also capable of
serving as an alternate landing
destination for the space shuttle.
Marine travel is currently the only
alternative for residents of King Cove to
reach Cold Bay. However, weather
adverse to flying often creates
treacherous or even impossible boating
conditions. The nearly three hours
required to reach Cold Bay by boat,
coupled with the fact that the harbor
lacks adequate small boat moorage
facilities, makes marine travel between
the two communities an impracticable
alternative in serious medical
emergencies.
Secretary of the Interior Bruce
Babbitt and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service oppose construction of the road
because they say it threatens the nesting
grounds of migratory waterfowl,
valuable brown bear habitat an,"
ecologically-important eelgrass.
"The sacrifice of habitat for millions
of migrating waterfowl-- all remaining

incalculable," Babbitt recently wrote in
a New York Times editorial.
Alaska's congressional delegation
and officials from King Cove and
Aleutians East Borough disagree with
Babbitt's assessment.
"It's time that Secretary Babbitt put
the political influence of special interest
groups behind and to do what's right for
the Aleut people of King Cove," said
Congressman Don Young. King Cove's
mayor, Henry Mack, added, "there are
already 40-plus miles of roads in
Izembek Refuge and they are not
disrupting the 200,000 birds there."
Federal legislation sponsored by
the Alaska congressional delegation
authorizes a land exchange between
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and
.the King Cove Corporation (KCC)in
)~turn for a road easement. KCC would
--trade title to 664 acres of high value
lands for the easement, leaving the
refuge with a net gain of over 550
additional acres of Wilderness.
Furthermore, the legislation grants the
Secretary of the Interior power to
regulate use of the road.
Deborah Williams, Special
Assistant to Secretary Babbitt for
Alaska, told the Alaska Journal of
Commerce legislation for the road and
a land transfer is premature. "Until an
'alternative analysis' is complete, a
lands transfer for a road will not happen,"
Williams said.
Opponents of the road have offered
several alternatives, including
construction of a regional medical clinic,
the use of telemedicine in King Cove,
creation of a ferry system and
construction of a helipad for use by
Coast Guard helicopters from Kodiak.
Construction of a regional medical
facility in King Cove would not only be
expensive, it also would not address
the issue of reliable access to adequate
medical care in the event of a severe
medical emergency. Telemedicine also
cannot adequately deal with cases of
severe injury or medical emergency.
"Telemedicine cannot reduce a
complex fracture, perform cardiac
catheterization on a patient with chest
pain and blocked coronary arteries or
CT scan the head of a fisherman injured
at sea," said Leslie Kerr, a health care
professional at the King Cove Medical
Clinic. "Tourists arriving in Cold Bay
are often told the runway is an
alternative landing site for the space
shuttle, but we frequently can't get there
by Bush plane on 'no fly' days, and
never at night," Kerr pointed out. "A
safe, well-maintained road between King
Cove and Cold Bay would bring us to our
connecting aeromedevac flight and into
the 21st Century of emergency
responsiveness."
A ferry system between King Cove
and Cold Bay would also be expensive
and inefficient. Such a project would
require improvements to the Cold Bay
harbor, enhancements to Lenard Harbor
near King Cove, and the purchase and
maintenance of a suitable marine vessel.
"A 50 to 70-foot vessel advocated
by the Audubon Society is a vessel for
the Potomac River, not the ocean
between King Cove and Cold Bay," said
Mayor Mack. Furthermore, he explained
demand for a regularly-scheduled ferry
does not exist and that the time required
to reach Cold Bay by boat in an
emergency may be too great.
Aviation experts warn that weather
conditions adverse to boating or flying
fixed-wing aircraft would also make flying
a helicopter risky.
"Although the Coast Guard does an
excellent job and its helicopters can fly
in winds as high as 90 mph over the
ocean, high winds in mountainous terrain
create myriad safety problems related
to turbulence," said Chuck Johnson,
President of Era Aviation. Johnson
characterized i~elicopter rescues in King
Cove as "very impractical" because of
local terrain and weather conditions,
particularly at night. He pointed out that
a Coast Guard helicopter departing
Kodiak has approximately 400 miles to
travel before it can reach King Cove and
even consider a landing.
"Politics aside, a road connecting
these two communities is the best
alternative for improving public safety
and providing peace of mind to the
residents of King Cove and Cold Bay,"
said Bob Juettner, Administrator for the
Aleutians East Borough. "Both
communities have worked hard to create
a scenario in which the construction of
the road should be agreeable to all
concerned parties. They should have
something to show for their efforts."
Editor's Note: At press time, negotiations
were reportedly getting underway between
the Interior Department and the Alaska
Congressional Delegation to find a potential
solution, including consideration of a
causeway that would allow the road to bypass
the refuge.

NMFS Essential Fish Habitat program:
Ecosystem management without limits?
By Robert A. Maynard
Perkins Coie LLP
The National Marine Fisheries Ser-
vice (NMFS) is preparing to implement
new "essential fish habitat" regulations
which will subject a very broad range of
natural resource business activities to
yet another layer of federal environ-
mental review.
The regulations would require many
mining, oil and gas, real estate devel-
opment, timber harvest, agricultural, and
other coastal and inland activities to
undergo a cumbersome "consultation"
process regarding potential impacts to
fish habitat. This process would be
much like the time consuming and ex-
pensive procedure established for
projects with potential effects on fish or
wildlife species listed as threatened or
endangered under the Endangered
Species Act (ESA).
The process would in many cases
include detailed watershed or "land-
scape" level analyses of cumulative
"ecosystem" impacts and mitigation
measures. The process would apply
much more broadly than the ESA cur-
rently does in Alaska and many other
states. It could extend to any opera-
tions requiring any federal or state per-
mit and that might adversely affect any
marine or inland salmon habitat identi-
fied as "essential."
The NMFS has recently issued draft
recommendations that virtually all wa-
ter bodies presently or historically ac-
cessible to salmon in Alaska be consid-
ered "essential fish habitat." This in-
cludes thousands of miles of Alaska
streams and other waters where salmon
spend some part of their life cycle,
including the smallest of tributaries lo-
cated hundreds of miles inland. The
agency has also issued guidance pre-
suming adverse impacts on salmon and
other fish from all kinds of coastal and
upland resource development and land
use activities.
The regulations, published in the
Federal Register as an "interim final
"The NMFS has recently issued draft recommendations
that virtually afl water bodies presently or historically
accessible to salmon in Alaska be considered 'essential
fish habitat.' This includes thousands of miles of Alaska
streams and other waters where salmon spend some
part of their fife cycle, including the smallest of tributaries
located hundreds of miles inland. The agency has also
issued guidance presuming adverse impacts on salmon
and other fish from all kinds of coastal and upland
resource development and land use activities."
rule" on December 19, 1997, are mostly
procedural in nature. However, they
can be expected to affect the outcome
of permitting agency decisions.
Federal agencies in particular are
required to complete detailed written
habitat impact assessments at the be-
hest of NMFS and explain in writing the
reasons for not adopting any mitigation
measures recommended by NMFS.
The process may be combined with
agency coordination and public com-
ment procedures already required for
many projects under the Clean Water
Act and other laws, but it adds specific
and potentially very redundant impact
assessment and consultation require-
ments to existing processes.
The "essential fish habitat" (EFH)
amendments in the 1996 Magnuson-
Stevens Fishery Conservation and
Management Act address an objective
that most people readily support--
conservation and enhancement of
essential fish habitat. The amendments
require the various marine fisheries
management councils, in their fishery
management plans, to identify EFH,
minimize adverse effects on EFH from
fishing, and identify ways to conserve
and enhance EFH.
The North Pacific Fisheries Man-
agement Council (NPFMC) adminis-
ters a plan for salmon fisheries off t'
Alaska coast which includes all fl
species of salmon, as well as plans for
specified marine groundfish, king and
Tanner crab, and Alaska scallops fish-
eries. The statute authorizes the Coun-
cil to make recommendations to federal
and state agencies permitting or fund-
ing activities that may affect habitat of a
fishery under the Council's authority.
The Magnuson-Stevens Act re-
quires NMFS to establish by regulation
guidelines to assist the NPFMC and
other councils in identifying, conserv-
ing and enhancing EFH. The Act
separately requires federal agencies to
consult with NMFS regarding any ac-
tions they authorize or fund which may
adversely affect identified EFH. It also
requires NMFS to recommend mea-
sures a state or federal agency can
take to conserve EFH if that agency's
authorized or funded action would ad-
versely affect identified EFH,.
The Magnuson-Stevens Act and
the councils administering the statt,'
focus upon management of marine fi,,
eries and regulation of the offshore
fishing industry. Council membership
and staff support are accordingly domi-
nated by marine fishing interests. The

The results of the first half of a majortwo-year, $1.5 million studY
have shown there has been no increases in sediment contaminants
in Cook Inlet since oil operations began there in the early 1960s.
The U.S. Minerals Management Service (MMS) in Anchorage
ordered the study at the urging of Greenpeace and other environ,
mental and Cook Inlet watchdog groups. The study was conducted
by Arthur D. Little, an internationally-known research firm.

However, the new study didn't find any signs of industry
contaminants in the outer areas either. The study found .that natu-
rally produced trace metals and hydrocarbons from streams and
rivers that run into Cook Inlet--. and crude oil from several natural oil
seepages -- accounted for all but an insignificant fraction of the trace
metals and hydrocarbons found in Cook Inlet sediment cores.
Proposed EFH regulations raise concern
(Continued from page 6)
1996 amendments to the Act were en-
acted with little debate, without involve-
ment of any industry besides commer-
cial fishing.
The plain language of the statute
refers to "essential" or "necessary" fish
habitat. The NMFS regulations, how-
ever, define EFH in the broadest pos-
sible terms to encompass any place
where salmon or other anadromous
fish currently or historically have spent
some part of their life cycle, whether
salt water, estuary, or far inland.
The regulations then set out an
elaborate and confusing "ecosystem"
based formal consultation process to
be imposed on other federal agencies
such as the Forest Service, Bureau of
Land Management, and the Corps of
Engineers, and to which state permit-
ting or funding actions will also be at
least in part subject. The regulations
empower the councils to develop and
9ake recommendations for protection
~Sf EFH for any federal or state permit-
ted or funded activities. However, the
regulations provide no meaningful voice
for permit applicants or for nonfishing
entity expertise in this council function.
Industries besides commercial fish-
ing finally became aware of the EFH
program late in the rulemaking pro-
cess. An informal nationwide coalition
comprised of a wide range of affected
nonfishing interests has for the past
year endeavored to accomplish reform
of the NMFS approach to EFH.
Nonfishing interests sharply criticized
NMFS's proposed and interim final regu-
lations and the process which NMFS
used in developing the EFH program.
Nonfishing interests are asking that
1 ) the scope of the program be properly
scaled back to the marine habitat focus
of the Magnuson-Stevens Act; 2) real-
istic limits be placed on the identifica-
tion of "essential" habitat; 3) the EFH
consultation process be simplified and
redundancies with other fish protection
consultation and coordination proce-
dures be eliminated; and 4) nonfishing
interests be given a meaningful voice in
any NMFS or Council recommenda-
tions for restrictions on nonfishing ac-
tivities based on potential fish habitat
impacts.
The Resource Development Coun-
cji has become active in commenting
on EFH proposals and assisting the
nationwide reform effort. The Alaska
Forest Association, Alaska Miners As-
sociation, and other concerned Alas-
kans have also been actively involved.
The Alaska Congressional delega-
tion and other leaders in Congress are
now aware of the strong dissatisfaction
with the EFH program and are pursuing
steps to bring about change.
NMFS requests to expand funding
for EFH at the expense of other impor-
tant marine fisheries programs has
heightened Congressional concern.
The recently issued Senate Committee
on Appropriations report to accompany
Fiscal Year 1999 appropriations for the
Department of Commerce expresses
concern that NMFS has exceeded the
scope of Congressional intent in imple-
menting Magnuson-Stevens Act EFH
provisions. The report directs NMFS to
reexamine the scope of its regulations
and guidelines, and directs the Govern-
ment Accounting Office (GAO) to re-
port on NMFS implementation of the
statute.
Perkins Coie LLP is providing coordinated legal
services for a large number of nonfishing entities
concerned about the EFH.
