MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council
FROM: Paul Ostrander, City Manager
DATE: November 29, 2017
SUBJECT: 2017 Personal Use Fishery (Dip Net) Report
The Personal Use Fishery, took place July 10, 2017 through July 31, 2017.
The following table depicts the run strength in 2017 relative to the previous three years:

2017 2016 2015 2014
Page 9 of 51
The timing of the 2017 Personal Use Fishery Sockeye run continued a recent trend
where the peak of the fishery seems to be appearing later than what has been
experienced historically. While there were good numbers of sockeye salmon available
during the Fishery, the best fishing occurred later in July, after many of the fishery
participants were done for the year.
Operations in 2017
The no wake zone along approximately 6,000 lineal feet of the Kenai River continued to
work extremely well this year from the first day of the fishery until the last. Fishery
participants expressed their appreciation for having a portion of the River in which to
fish and not be buffeted by the wake from speeding boats.
It is the Administration’s intent to continue to manage the no wake zone in the same
manner in the future.
In 2017 the entrance to the south shore via Old Cannery Road was again closed
through a temporary section-line access closure permit issued to the City by the Alaska
Department of Natural Resources. An application to permanently vacate that section
line has been submitted to the Alaska Department of Natural Resources for processing.
It is Administration’s intent to continue to eliminate all access at Old Cannery Road and
Dunes Road in the future as a result of the construction of the superior Royal Street
access road to the south shore.
Operational Changes in 2017
The only significant operational change in 2017 was an expansion of the no parking
area through the placement of additional jersey barriers at the South Spruce Street
access to the North Beach. This change helped alleviate congestion at the access.
Construction of a New Access to the Beach South of the Mouth of the Kenai River
As a component of eliminating conflicts with private property owners and providing
enhanced access for the personal use fishery and other recreational users, the City
approached the Legislature late in the 2013 session and requested $2.3 million to fund
construction of a new access road and associated infrastructure. The Legislature
appropriated $1.9 million for the project. This access would be constructed to the north
of private properties in the area and eliminate alleged trespass issues across private
property by fishery participants and others attempting to access the south shore at the
mouth of the Kenai River.
The City purchased property and constructed phase I (gravel surfacing) of the new
Royal Street access road in early 2016. The City completed the sale of the surplus
Page 10 of 51
properties in 2017 for $825,000. The proceeds from that sale will be utilized for
additional infrastructure improvements to support the personal use fishery.
Dip Net App
In 2017 the City built a Dip Net App for iPhone and android devices, free to download,
that provided up to date information on the fishery including tide information, fish counts,
weather, fee calculators, general fishery information, web cams, and additional
information that was relevant and useful for fishery participants. The App also allowed
the City to provide “push notifications”, with timely information to help improve the
experience and safety for anyone that downloaded the App.
The City provided an opportunity for businesses to advertise on the App, an inexpensive
way for them to gain exposure to the thousands of Fishery participants. We anticipate
that interest in advertising on the App will grow next year, primarily because we will be
able to make the opportunity for advertising known much earlier than we were able to
during 2017.
The App was very well received with over 8700 downloads to date. The City intends to
continually improve the App in future years.
2017 Financial Summary
The Council adopted budget for the P.U. Fishery was for revenues of $576,562,
expenditures of $512,127, and a lapse of $19,981, or revenues over expenditures of
$84,416. Revenues are projected at $513,972, projected expenses are $447,877, and
the projected lapse is $5,000 or revenues over expenditures of $71,095.
The P.U. Fishery Fund began FY2018 with a fund balance of $203,556 given the above
the ending fund balance for FY2018 is projected to be $274,651.
The purpose of a fund balance is to provide funding for present and future capital
expenditures to support City operations during the Fishery, and to safeguard the City’s
General Fund in the event that the Fishery is closed by emergency order and the City is
unable to recoup expenditures.
Personal Use Fishery Fund Management
Prior to FY2014, the City had instituted accounting controls so that expenses and
revenues associated with the personal use fishery were identified as discretely separate
from other City operations. In many ways, this accounting mirrored the manner in which
enterprise funds capture financial information.
The creation of the P.U. Fishery Fund, provides a funding mechanism where fund
balance can be utilized to provide funding for larger one-time capital expenditures or
other purposes deemed appropriate by Council. Fund balance for FY2014 through
Page 11 of 51
FY2017 was $29,063, $67,662, $139,936, and $203,556 respectively. Ending Fund
balance for FY 2018 is projected to be $274,651.
Administration feels that the Personal Use Fishery fund balance is sufficient to support
capital expenditures to support City operations during the Fishery, and protect the City’s
General Fund. This will allow the use of future revenues generated from the Fishery to
support General Fund capital projects and / or operations.
Capital Improvements for the Personal Use Fishery Fund
As the fishery has evolved and the City of Kenai has responded by creating its overall
management plan, a growing component of the plan has been the capital needs to
manage, react, and respond to the needs of the fishery participants.
Given the State of Alaska’s fiscal issues, it is doubtful that the City of Kenai will receive
additional State grants for capital improvements to respond to Fishery needs in the
foreseeable future.
Proposed Changes to the 2017 Fee Structure
Administration does not recommend any changes to the fee structure for the 2017
Personal Use Fishery.

DATE: November 29, 2017
SUBJECT: 2017 Dipnet Summary
Dipnet Smartphone App
The largest undertaking this year was the creation of a new Dipnet Kenai smartphone app. Beginning in
March, the IT Manager and a consultant began work to create this new smartphone app. This project
also included installing new cameras that would be available to the public. Total cost to develop this app
was $5,103. The cost to install the additional cameras, including new poles and electrical, was $10,946.
In June, 6 new cameras were installed throughout the fishery along with a new streaming video server.
This provided new views of areas including the boat launch, the Kenai River, and for the first time a view
of South Beach. The cameras were the most visited part of the City's website for the month of July and
had over 60,000 visits.
The Dipnet Kenai app was downloaded 8,474 times, and had 317,273 page views for the month of July.
The app included real-time information about the 3 main dipnet sites, daily fish counts from Fish and
Game, weather and tide information, detailed fee information, and live streaming video from the new
cameras. An interactive map was provided that listed some City facilities as well as all of the paid
advertisers. The App also included the ability to send push notifications to fishery participants, this was
used several times by Public Safety to provide warnings about high tides, and also to alert the public to
a vehicle on fire on south beach.
A major goal for the Dipnet Kenai app was to drive fishery participants into businesses located within the
City. To accomplish this, advertisements were sold to be included in the app as well as on the permit
hang tag that. Popup ads were viewed 65,833 times. In addition to popup ads in the app, advertisers
were featured on the interactive map with additional information about the business such as hours and
contact methods. Finally, advertisers that provided content before the printing deadline, were featured
prominently on the back of the hang tag.
In order to create the Dipnet Kenai app in a compressed time frame, and with a limited budget, an app
vendor was selected that would expedite the whole process. Unfortunately, the features that they offered
were not perfect. The current map is very limited to customization, which made it difficult to indicate areas
1
Page 15 of 51
where rules applied such as no vehicles or no parking. Also, we were unable to provide driving directions
to South Beach as the maps hadn't been updated for the new road.
Other advanced features such as tracking participant activities, providing location specific notices, and
integration with the Point of Sale program aren't possible with the current vendor. It is also not possible
to customize the look of the app as we are limited to generic templates. The cost to move to a custom
application would be approximately $20,000.
New Printers
For the 2017 fishery, new printers were purchased, and the method of permit issue was changed. In the
past, permits were printed directly on the hang tags that were provided to customers. These hang tags
were difficult to print on, and the printers that we had been using were beginning to fail due to the difficult
weather conditions they are exposed to. The new system uses industrial label printers that are designed
to be in challenging environments such as loading docks or warehouses. These printers also print at an
exponentially faster rate, and allowed the hang tags to transition from multiple colors to only white as now
the labels are colored. Finally, hang tags could be reused when participants come back multiple times as
they can simply be issued new labels. Over all the new printers were a success, and allowed for faster
transactions as well as a reduction in overtime related to printer maintenance.
FY18 Revenues
The FY18 fee structure remained the same as that of FY17. FY18 non-capital grant revenues, net of
sales tax, are projected to be $513,987, $65,964 less than budgeted and $60,945 less than FY17
revenues excluding non-capital grant revenues. Capital grant revenue is projected to increase $78,275.
The successful sale of the unused real property on South Beach has made approximately $800,000 of
previously expended grant funds once again available for capital purposes. A comparison of FY18 fishery
revenue to prior years is shown below, the breakdown by site and service for FY14 thru FY18 is based
upon actual transactions. Prior year transactions by site and service were estimated. The cashiering
system implemented in FY14 provides this level of detail and will enhance future revenue and fee change
projections.

Participants with a 99611 zip code were 7% of the total. Participants from the Central Peninsula, including
Kenai, Soldotna, and Sterling were 16% of the total. The entire Kenai Peninsula Borough totaled 18%.
The largest user group was from the Municipality of Anchorage at 55% with the Mat-Su Borough at 13%.
2017 marked the 5th year with the new computerized permit sale system. Over the years, many changes
have occurred to the fee structure and also the process the City uses to operate the fishery. As such, only
4 years of data are comparable for the North and South beaches. 5 years of data are available at the dock
as there have been no substantial changes at this location. Several services such as drop off or 1 hour
free parking are also not averaged over the whole period as they have been added or have changed
significantly.
Transactions this year were down 11% from the average, and were also the lowest in 4 years. The number
of free transactions was down 1% over the previous year.
Traffic levels at the dock were down 13% and were also the lowest in 5 years.
South Beach remained similar to last year with only 1 less transaction than the 2016 fishery. However,
compared to the average South Beach was down 8%, and was also the lowest on record. Staffing at the
second shack at south beach was reduced again, this year being open only on weekends. The number of
transactions per hour on south beach only exceeded 40 per hour on 6 occasions. It is recommended that
for FY18 the second shack only be staffed on weekends.
North beach numbers were down 11% and were also the lowest in 4 years. The busiest hour on north
beach saw 103 transactions completed which was a 12% increase from 2016. This is likely due to the
installation of new printers.

The period between 5am and 3pm was again the busiest time for 2017, with 5am having the most
transactions per hour for the day. This is because of the day use parking not beginning until 5am. The
busiest hour saw 190 transactions processed between all of the facilities, which is a 13% increase from
the previous year. Average transactions were 36 per hour for the entire fishery.
Payment of fees by cash was once again the dominant method at 63%, a 4% decrease from last year.
Credit card use increased by 3% to a total of 36%, and checks remained unchanged at 1%. It is expected
that credit card payment percentage will continue to grow in future years. Fees paid for credit card
acceptance totaled $4,701 or 2.52% of fees paid by credit card.
FY18 Expenditures
Detailed budget to actual comparisons are provided. Additional FY18 expenditures are anticipated in
support of the fishery. Capital expenditures, which occurred in FY17, in support of the fishery totaled
$23,600 and were mostly paid for by a grant from the State of Alaska. The following capital expenditures
were made in support of the fishery:
South Beach property maintenance $23,600
FY18 Summary and Recommendations
South Spruce Underground Utilities
Relocation of fee shacks to the top of South Spruce Street has proven to be successful providing greater
control and a safer environment for fishery participants and City staff. To complete this move, permanent
utility vaults should be installed in the roadway for easier and safer installation of fee shacks. The curb
must also be cut and the roadway expanded in the area of the fee shacks to provide the needed width for
safe operations of two shacks in that area. The estimated cost of these permanent upgrades is $35,000.
Main St. Underground Utilities
Cameras were installed at the south end of Main St. for the dipnet app. Power was provided by the nearby
Kenai Bible Church for the 2017 fishery. Power was provided with an above ground extension cord that
went through a culvert and over the grass. This connection proved unstable and was unable to operate
the electric heater. Underground power and data cables should be installed to an adjacent sewer lift
station. Estimated cost for this is $7,500.
Replacement Equipment
Each year various equipment needs to be replaced for the fee shacks as well as the camera system.
Necessary replacements this year include credit card readers, uninterruptable power supplies, printer
parts, cash drawer parts, and several replacement cameras. Estimated cost for this is $4,500.
Dipnet App & Point of Sale Software Improvements
A number of improvements were identified during the 2017 fishery to the Dipnet App. Dipnet App
improvements for 2018 to include: automating fish counts; improve the display of the fish counts;
automating live tide information and improving display, updating fee calculator. Estimated cost for this is
$2,000. Annually updates and improvements are made to the Point of Sale software at an estimated cost
of $1,500.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel and Kenai City Council
THROUGH: Paul Ostrander, City Manager
FROM: Robert J. Frates, Parks & Recreation Director
DATE: October 20, 2017
SUBJECT: Parks & Recreation Dip Net Report - 2017
The 2017 Kenai Personal-Use Fishery opened at 6:00 a.m. on July 10 and closed at 11:00 p.m.
on July 31. There were no emergency openings or closures issued by the Alaska Department
Fish & Game affecting the fishery this season.
There were a number of proposals presented to the Alaska Fish Board several months prior to
the opening of the fishery. One proposal submitted by the City of Kenai was a request to eliminate
the Alaska Department of Fish & Game’s authority to open the Kenai River fishery 24-hours per
day. None of the proposals submitted came to fruition and it will be interesting to see what
materializes for next season.
The department coordinated with the Kenai Watershed Forum and Alaska Department of
Environmental Conservation developing a working plan for the continuation of the Kenai Beach
Bacteria Monitoring program. Updated educational pamphlets were distributed at the fee shacks.
Pending final grant approval, beach sampling and data collection will begin during the 2018
fishery.
As for the department’s involvement this season, a total of 3,580.25 hours have been expended
to date. A bulk of these hours (2,123) included staffing various fee shacks. A total of 592 hours
were spent patrolling the North and South Beaches and assisting with parking and vehicular
traffic; 321 hours providing administrative support; 138.75 hours installing and removing fencing
and signs; 134 hours providing general support to the fishery, including but not limited to, training,
handling repairs and renovations, picking up and delivering materials and supplies,
7
Page 21 of 51
Page 2 of 5
Parks & Recreation Dip Net Report 2017
post dip net cleanup, etc. A total of 178 hours were spent raking the North and South Beaches.
Additionally, a total of 93.5 hours were spent cleaning restrooms and performing trash pick-up
and hauling related to the fishery. Unlike in year’s past, the department did not receive any calls
concerning illegal dumping of fish carcasses throughout the City limits.
WASTE MANAGEMENT
Dumpsters
Peninsula Pumping, Inc. and Alaska Waste provided daily servicing of dumpsters. Alaska Waste
managed six (6) dumpsters not on the beaches. These locations included the City Dock, North
Beach parking lot and Kenai Little League Fields. Peninsula Pumping, Inc. managed all
dumpsters servicing the beach areas (16 total). Twelve (12) were designated for use on the North
Beach with six (6) in service and six (6) stored in the parking lot for rotational purposes. The
South Beach included four (4), 6-yd dumpsters.
One change from last year was the elimination of dumpsters at the end of Kenai Avenue. This
change was necessary due to safety concerns of driving a large 35’ refuse truck down a narrow
and often congested road. Trash receptacles were utilized in this area instead.
In addition to the contracted dumpster service, department staff managed several trash
receptacles serving the North Beach, namely at the end of Kenai Ave., end of South Spruce St.
and at the Kenai Little League Fields.
Restrooms
Peninsula Pumping, Inc. provided all portable restrooms and serviced them daily. This included
five (5) at the City Dock, eighteen (18) serving the North Beach area and eleven (11) serving the
South Beach. Additional services for the portables at the end of Kenai Ave. were required on July
14 and July 17. Servicing included pumping out the vault, cleaning, restocking paper and
replenishing fluid. Hand sanitizers were not included as part of the service due to theft and
improper use.
In addition to the contracted portable restrooms, department staff cleaned and restocked the
permanent restrooms several times daily. These areas included the City Dock, end of Kenai Ave.
and end of South Spruce St.
The supply and servicing of the dumpsters and portable restrooms is a major expense the City
incurs every season. This year’s cost was about $80,700. There was also an additional expense
of $945 pumping out the restroom vaults after the dipnet fishery.
Fish Waste
The North and South Beaches were raked nightly. A temporary staff member was assigned to
each beach and sometimes worked collaboratively, as needed. In addition to raking duties, they
also provided litter control, equipment fueling and cleaning, and were accountable for cleaning
the permanent restrooms on the North Beach throughout the evening. There were no issues with
fish waste accumulating on the beaches this season. Some of the contributing factors for this
was a culmination of staff’s raking efforts, one high tide cycle lasting several day, relatively lower
number of fish caught and participants following proper procedures for discarding fish waste.
An equipment wash down station was set up along Royal Street near the fee shacks and served
as an area for City staff to clean off equipment. The equipment was provided by Public Works
including a holding tank for water, small water pump, and hoses. The Parks & Recreation
Department provided a portable pressure sprayer.

Parks & Recreation Dip Net Report 2017
Enforcement & Compliance
Two temporary staff members were assigned to patrol the North and South Beaches. This was
accomplished by performing foot patrols and utilizing All-Terrain Vehicles. Their primary
objective was to enforce parking and camping regulations either by face-to-face contact or by
issuing warning tickets. These two positions, in particular, spend a lot of time conversing with
participants and in many ways serve as ambassadors to the City of Kenai. They also assisted
with keeping pedestrian and vehicular traffic out of sensitive dune areas, ensured no vehicles
were operating in prohibited areas, mended fences, performed litter patrol, assisted with traffic
control and coordinated with the Kenai Fire Department and Kenai Police Department for any
emergencies or specific issues.

The primary fee shacks at the North Beach and South Beach were staffed on a 24-hour basis;
secondary fee shacks were staffed 12-hours per day during the weekday and longer during the
weekends. Minor staffing adjustments were made here and there particularly toward the end of
the fishery when there was far less vehicular traffic.
As recommended by Dan Castimore, City of Kenai’s IT System Manager, we switched over to
printing colored stickers instead of printing directly onto paper (door hangers). There was an
upfront cost of replacing the old printers, purchasing rolls of stickers, computer/network
replacement and point of sale software modifications. However, this proved to be more cost
effective and drastically improved printing efficiency, thus, increasing the number of transactions
and ultimately greater customer satisfaction.
Other fee shack upgrades championed by Mr. Castimore included the addition of electric heat,
including air conditioning (AC) to the City Dock fee station. The AC was necessary to mitigate
the high moisture problem previously experienced in the metal pilothouse.
The following represents the operations and tasks performed by the department in support of the
fishery:
• Staffing and fee collection at the various fee stations.
• Installation & removal of signs at the Bird Viewing Platform, Eric Hansen Scout Park and
Municipal Park.
• Installation & removal of temporary “No Parking” signs along Dunes Road, Old Cannery
Road, Royal Street, South Forest Drive, Stellar Drive, Toyon Way, Spruce Street, Upland
Street, Cook Avenue, Eagle Rock Road and Ross Street.
• Installation & removal of miscellaneous signs including beach speed limit signs, no
trespass (bluff and beach dunes) signs, fish waste regulatory signs and other general
informational and advisory signs.
• Striped the Kenai Little League parking lot and cordoned off area for staff parking.
• Cleaned out debris from beach fire pits and removed nails from various beach locations.
• Removed excess sand on the North Beach walkways leading over dunes.
• Installation & removal of temporary fencing on the North and South Beaches. Fencing
offered protection to sensitive habitat areas and safety for pick-up and retrieval of North
Beach dumpsters.
• Delivery & retrieval of equipment and supplies necessary for supporting operations, i.e.,
tractors, ATV’s, custodial supplies, fuel, shack supplies, traffic cones, etc.

Parks & Recreation Dip Net Report 2017
• Trimmed vegetation along Meeks Trail, North Beach parking lot and at the bird-viewing
platform.
• Coordinated placement of portable restrooms and dumpsters in support of the fishery.
• Serviced permanent restrooms at the City Dock, Kenai Avenue and end of South Spruce
Street.
• Procurement of miscellaneous material and supplies in support of the fishery.
• Beach raking on the North and South Beaches.
• Coordinated with the KCHS Ski Team on weekly clean-up efforts, including post-dipnet.
• Coordinated with Walmart employee volunteers on post-dipnet cleanup.
• Provided additional waste management services in other areas impacted such as,
Daubenspeck Family Park, Erik Hansen Scout Park, Bluff Overlook area, Little League
complex and the Adult Softball complex.
• Provided two temporary support personnel (Beach Aids) dedicated to providing
enforcement on the North and South Beaches.
• Assisted Public Works with development of bids for contracted services (portable
restrooms and dumpsters).
• Handled a variety of phone calls and inquiries related to the fishery.
• Participated in staff training.
• Provided clerical support to Dan Castimore for collection and entry of local events for the
Dipnet App.
SPECIFIC OBSERVATIONS & CONCERNS
1) Volunteers often pass out balloons on the North and South Beaches. Balloons
intentionally or accidently released can have a negative effect on the environment and
wildlife. Discarded balloons not only lead to unsightly conditions, but can also be ingested
by birds or cause entanglement, particularly if attached to a balloon string.
2) Consideration should be given to installing a vehicular gate at the entrance into the first
parking lot off South Spruce Street serving Little League Fields #1 and #2. This could be
opened as space is needed to accommodate dipnet participants, but until such time, would
allow coaches and parents a place to park while conducting practices.
3) The dipnet app was well received and curtailed some of the call volume for the department.
The app became a valuable tool for participants with features including a Kenai weather
forecast, tide table, maps, fee calculator, fish counts, live camera streams and other
pertinent information related to the dipnet fishery, including community events.
4) Consideration should be given to how to better manage vehicular parking during the
fishery along Toyon Way and Stellar Drive, located off South Forest Drive.
5) Post “Soft Sand Ahead” advisory signs near the South Beach shacks.
6) Consideration should be given to someday replacing the fire rings located on the North
Beach. Currently, there are two (2) concrete rings that are beyond repair and the eight
(8) or so metal rings are beginning to deteriorate.
7) Consideration should be given to performing an inventory of signs in the North Beach
parking lot and eliminating unnecessary signs and maybe consolidating others. Many of
the signs currently in place are unnecessary outside the dipnet fishery season.

Parks & Recreation Dip Net Report 2017
ESTIMATED REMAINING FY18 FUNDING REQUESTS
1) Wages & Benefits
It is estimated $29,649.00 will be utilized for contract administration, interviewing and
hiring of necessary personnel to facilitate the fishery, planning, supervision and cleaning
out the grating (ramps) on the North Beach. A bulk of these wages are administrative in
nature to ensure hiring and supervision of personnel.
2) Office Supplies
Approximately $700 (Office Supplies) will need to be expended for 4”x6” thermal transfer
label paper for the door hangers customers receive at the fee shacks. The labels are
attached to each hanger sold and contains all the pertinent information related to the
transaction. Last year’s cost was $674.
3) Operating/Repair Supplies
This request ($2,500) is for the replacement of the large interpretive sign that gets installed
front and center on the North Beach prior to the opening of the fishery. The goal is to
incorporate pertinent information and regulations onto one master sign, thus, eliminating
some of the need for additional signs.
4) Printing & Binding
It is estimated that approximately $2,500 is needed or ordering 25,000 80# White Door
Hangers measuring 4.25”x11”. The printable thermal transfer labels get attached to the
door hangers for customers to place on vehicles and tents.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Brian Gabriel & Kenai City Council
THRU: Paul Ostrander, City Manager
FROM: Dave Ross, Police Chief
DATE: 10-5-17
SUBJECT: 2017 Dipnet Report - Police
The 2017 Dipnet fishery opened on July 10 and ended on July 31. In 2017, the City employed
six temporary enforcement officers (TEOs) dedicated to Police Dipnet operations. Significant
2017 Police Dipnet information includes:
- Police handled 106 dipnet-related calls for service during the month of July. Those
calls included a wide variety of issues: 5 (9-1-1) misdials, 16 parking problems, 8
traffic congestion, 3 motor vehicle crashes, 3 vehicle unlocks, 3 thefts, 3 stuck
vehicles, 17 lost & found property, 2 Boat collisions, 1 capsized boat, 7 welfare
checks, 4 traffic offenses, 3 disorderly complaints, 3 temporarily lost children, and 28
other miscellaneous calls for service.
- TEOs wrote 228 dipnet related citations (primarily for paid parking and other parking
related violations).
- Salmon Frenzy volunteers were here in large numbers again and provided invaluable
assistance in regards to traffic control during the busy weekend hours, on both Kenai
Ave. and at the City Dock.
- This was the first year of the incorporation of a Dipnet App into the dipnet operations
by the City. It was a convenient place to direct people that were looking for
information on the fishery. It was also used to ‘push out’ information in regards to
extreme tides and heavy equipment removing a vehicle from the river. In the event
of a more serious incident on the beach or near the fishery that ability to push out
emergency notifications may prove invaluable
- Funding remains in the FY18 budget to cover the cost of hiring and training TEOs in
June of 2018.
