Discussion -- Dip Net Fishery Update Frates reported the following information: ® Approximately 6,230 lineal feet of safety fencing had been erected around the sand dunes on the north beach. • Efforts were being made to revise the informational brochure handed out to participants of the dip net fishery. HARBOR COMMISSION MEETING JUNE 9, 2008 PAGE 2 The north shore dune protection ordinance had been passed. Discussion followed and included the following: • Because the same environmental disturbances occur, should the ordinance include the south side beach as well. ® Because the property is for sale, a suggestion the city should investigate purchasing the Anchor Trailer Court property. ® Include discussion related to the Anchor Trailer Court property availability on the next Harbor Commission meeting agenda. MOTION: Commissioner Poynor MOVED to request an amendment to the north shore dune protection ordinance to include the south shore. Commissioner Peters SECONDED the motion. There were no objections.

ITEM 8: COMMISSIONER COMMENTS/QUESTIONS Osborn -- • Reported a commercial fisher told him silt deposited on the upstream dock was making it difficult for use, particularly during lower tides. Osborn requested the issue be included for discussion on the next agenda. • Asked the status of the no trespass signs and distance between them. Frates explained, the signs had been ordered and would be approximately 50-80 feet apart. Poynor -- Commented signage along Bridge Access Road and Boat Launch Road warning drivers of slow moving vehicles would be a good idea. ITEM 9: PERSONS NOT 5CHEDULED TO BE HEARD -- None.

Freas, City Clerk HARBOR COMMISSION MEETING JUNE 9, 2008 PAGE 4 NORTON CORROSION LIMITED Tune 3, 2008 City of Kenai Attn.: Wayne Ogle, Public Works Director 210 Fidalgo Avenue, Suite 200 Kenai, AK 99611 Subject: 2008 ANNUAL INSPECTION CATHODIC PROTECTION SYSTEM CITY DOCK Gentlemen: 8820 222"d Street SE, Woodinville, WA 98077 Phone (425) 483-1616 Fax (425) 485-1754 e-mail: sales@nortoncorrosion.com Received JUPJ 9 2000 On May 19, 2008, Norton Corrosion Limited (NCL} conducted an inspection of the galvanized piling that support the City dock. The galvanize coating provides cathodic protection (CP) protecting the piling from external corrosion. Authorization to perform this work was issued on April 25, 2008, per PO No. 87506. Work Performed Testing was performed by John Keppler, P.E., a NACE certified CP Specialist and Level 2 Coating Inspector. Accessible piles were visually inspected above the water and mud lines at low tide. Structure-to-electrolyte potential measurements were recorded at representative test ati ,: to evaluate the level of protection being received. Reathngs were recorded using a loc___o- Fluke Model 87 multi-meter in conjunction with a Borin Model SRE-004-SFB saturated silver- silver chloride half-cell. Criteria The applicable criterion established by NACE International indicates adequate protection is being provided by a potential difference of -0.750 volts or more negative as measured on a steel structure in reference to the saturated silver-silver chloride half=cell used. Results Structure-to-electrolyte potential measurements recorded on the support piling located along the river fi~ont floating dock indicate less than adequate protection is being received. The attached data sheet details the results of NCL's inspection. This is similar to the readings obtained during NCL's most recent dock inspection performed in 1999. Visual inspection of the piling at the mud line indicate extensive general corrosion has occurred as depicted in the photos on the data sheet. Pit depth measurements indicate corrosion to a depth of 210 mils. Please note that active corrosion would not have occurred until the galvanized ~~ NORTON CORROSION LIMITED City ofKenai June 3, 2008 Page 2 coating had consumed, thus limited corrosion would have been expected during the first 10 years of service. The piles are in relatively good condition above the mud line. Reportedly, ice damage during the first winter of operation led to physical damage to piling. The following year the piling were cut open below the cap and filled with concrete. Though these piling are filled with concrete, they have no rebar cage to add additional flexm~al support. The concrete should be effective at eliminating internal corrosion of the piling, thus NCL opines the damage caused to date is limited to the external surface. The interface between the mud zone and intertidal/water zone has apparently resulted in a corTOSion cell where the water zone is cathodic and the mud zone anodic. Thus corrosion damage Yo date has occurred below the mud line. NCL was unable to determine at the time of inspection how extensive the corrosion is below the mud line and if it is more severe at depth. Recommendations NCL recommends an impressed current type CP system be installed to mitigate further corrosion of the support piling. Installation of an impressed current CP system will require electrically bonding all of the dock piling together, installing anode beds and a rectifier unit. The rectifiers will require AC power for operation all year long. The site conditions limit traditional work methods. The dock piling are above the water line much of the time because of the large tidal influence and the mud surrounding the dock limits access to the piling from below. The use of galvanic anodes is ruled out at this time. Prior to providing a design. scope and budget, NCL would like to review drawings of the dock. This will permit us to provide a conceptual design based on a required current output. Please provide a set of dock drawings with pile driven pile depths. Upon our receipt, we will be happy to provide a scope and budgetary costs to design and install CP. I will be in Kenai several more times this season and would be happy to meet with you. regarding this work, or simply in regard to introducing NCL to you. NCL appreciates this opportunity to serve the City of Kenai. Please feel free to contact this office if you have any questions or additional concerns. S~ince~rely, V -`,' `-~ vYohn F.
