4. OLD BUS!NESS.:~_
a. Dock. Swede Freden reported on the Kenai Dock activities
for the 1992 season. The fuel system was busy with over
85,000 gallons of diesel and 28,000 gallons of gas being
sold. The fuel system was tested and will continue to be
tested yearly.
The water system experienced high amounts of iron and
285,876 gallons were used.
Whitney's and Pacific Gold were the 'two companies that
leased the crane and rented the fork lift. The cranes
are holding up and are re-certified yearly.
Some "No Wake Zone" signs are being made up and will be
placed on the dock and at the canneries.
The boat launch ramp received a lot o~ use. Mr.. Freden
would like to see a user ~ee established for the boat
launch as well as the R/V septic dump station and the
waste oil dump station. Altland requested discussion of
user ~ees be placed on the November agenda.
The restrooms took a beating this season with vandalism
such as graffiti, toilet paper dispensers being kicked
off the walls and shower heads being stolen. Mr. Freden
feels if port-a-potties were supplied by the canneries
for their employees' camp sites, much of the vandalism
would decrease.

The floats didn't need much work this season, but the
gabion were pulled out due to ice last winter and spring.
Rocks have been placed in front of them to try to keep
the gabions in place.
Lighting is needed in the lessee area. Messrs. Kornelis
and Jahrig will look into the possibility for three more
lights.
All Commissioners discussed placement and type of ramp
that should be built. To start with Mr. Kornelis will
check with Mr. Nelson to see if he can look over the dock
area and come up wi th an engineering proposal and
estimate of cost. After that, the Commission will try to
get additional funding since it would be ideal to build
the ramp this winter and install it in spring. The City
would have to go out for a competitive bid.
b. Fishing Hole. Discussion delayed until next month.
c. Kenai River Viewing Flats. Eldridge was to be checking
on USGS information for the signs. McCubbins suggested
also contacting the Eagle Scouts to see if they would
like to take it on as a project.
