RE: FY11 Draft Budget
Attached is the FY1.1 Draft Budget for your review. Significant changes from the FY10 budget are as
follows:
1) Reduction of $15,000 from the Operating /Repair Supplies account, This is due to the fact that
fueling is now being provided by Jackson Enterprises.
2) Reduction of $14,900 in Professional Services. As you recall, the FY10 budget included this amount
for cathodic protection design work and will not be needed in the FY11 budget.
The draft budget, however, does include additional monies for the production of the tide books,
redesign of fee envelopes, a single gate, and four (4) new floats. Mr. Dave Hernandez will provide an
update on these matters during the presentation of the draft budget.
Please review and provide comments during the regularly scheduled meeting of December 7` if you
have any immediate questions, please feel free to contact me at 283 -3692 or 394 -2609.

Enclosed is the City of Ketials annual Dipnet Report for 2009, with reports from police, parks, public
works, and finance. The report highlights the activities, expenditures, and observations of the City
departments that have significant involvement with the annual personal use dinner fishery at/near the
mouth of the Kenai. River. For the 2009 dipnet fishery, the City had total revenues of $254,962 and total
expenditures of $221,189.52,
City departments saw an overall increase in expenditures for 2009. The police department experienced a
decrease in expenditures, primarily due to fewer overtime shifts over the previous year, and the police
command staff was able to spend less administrative ti/DC on dipnetaidated tasks. Parks and recreation had
an increase in expenditures, largely due to the installation of permanent fencing on the North beach. The
parks director spent considerable time applying for a grant to fund $40,000 in permanent fencing on the
North beach. This successful grant award, combined with parks employees installing the fencing, greatly
helped in minimizing the City's financial outlay. Public works had an increase in expenditures mostly due to
additional projects over the previous year: building and instilling informational signs, adding gravel to the
South beach Cannery Road entrance, placing concrete fire rings, and :removing old dock planks. The
finance department had an increase in expenditures, due to increased staff time.
The police department experienced an increase in calls for service, largely due to expanded, and mom
diligent, cash pick-ups. Police responded to three reports of fights/assaults on •the :first busy weekend.
.A local setnet fisherman, who accesses the beach from S. Spruce, gave the City positive feedback and praise
for the S. Spruce gravel extension •onto the beach, and also for the shack workers Whb: allowed lib vehicles
to expeditiously enter the beach.
City departments' have initiated discussions about •diptieurelated vendors. One food vendor parked a. Small
bus briefly on the North beach, but then left the area after being advised of a. city licensing reqUirement.
The City :should consider developing a concessionaire plan, to indude: parking location, feek and quantity
of vendors •allowed.
Overall, the City departments felt the dipnet fishery was successful, with a low number of significant
incidents given the thousands of people who participated from around the. State of Alaska. Please reference
the Parks section of the report for recominendations on fee increases dazing the dipnet fishery,.

The Annual Dipnet Report is presentcd fo your review, It ineludes repo from the Poiice,
Public Works, Finance, and Parks Recreaticrn Dcpartrncnts. You will find a sunirnary
overview of Police Department activity specific to the Kenai River Dipnet Fishery to include
observations, statistics problems encountered, and suggestions f'or improvernent for I8)0,The
Seasonal Enforcement Officer report is also attached,
The Fishery opened at 6a ou Friday, 7'lo~09, and closed n\|lpou Friday, 7'3\'O9. There were
no emergency openings, open extensions. or elosures this ycar; it rernained a Ga.- 1 1 event as it djcj lasi
year.
City departments prepared for anticipated historical challenges, collaborated with planning
management strategies, with this year resulting in an effective overall management of the 3-wcek
fi sh er7.
The greatest managerial challenge this season. similar to last year, was parking in the South
Spruce/North Beach area, parking issues at the City Dock. and an effective camping perrnit
process.
Four Seasonal Enforcement .Officers (SFOs) spent the maj of their July shifts engaged in
Fishcry related activity; all four SFOs worked as SEOs in 2008, so they weTe familiar with all
aspects of the fishery and needed little remedial training prior to the season. Significant issues
SEOs dealt with this year were parking and vehicle operations on the North Beach area, and
ATV onnctn|000i6*&muL68*noh.
The Police Depiutnent handled l4| calls for service this year (77 ofth were
handled by SE0s1; the majority majority ofthe calls for service were cash pick-ups froin thc four pay
shacks, followed by parking complaints and c,umpio& issues ou the North Beach. Other activity
generntin{a Police Department attention involved ATV use (hoth beaches) parking pioh1cns at
the City Dock, lifter and destruction nforuuQc and trampling of ve dunes during
extreme high tides (North Beach),
One vehicle was impounded dzixyeuz,fbruoluv8dyozkio&noBri8ge/\cueasx»udnoxrQoa\
Launch Road (too close to the intersection/blocking view).
Tx'eb1y'fivev[ the I7 eitat issued this ycar were parking related (handicap zone, no pennit.
no parking zone). Police arrested 2 drunk drivers on the South Beach, one of which was leaving
the scene of a Hit Run collision. Over 300 written warnings were left on windshields for
parking violations, with some hcing followed up with citations, Well over 1000 verbal warnings
were issued during day-to-day operations/contacts with Fishery participants, again most of them
parking related.
Police also responded to several fights, reports of theft, and a South Beach camper with a
chainsaw "getting firewood" on private property off Cannery Road. Police and USCG
investigated a report of a commercial gillnetter boat intentionally swamping dipnetters along the
0ortbxborea{,6enuou1bofdb,ri*ur;\hmiov:xd&adoacnucludedmith USCG interaction with
the FN's captain, and no crimin2t1 charges.
The USCG patrolled the boat-dipping area with a State Parks Ranger during July 16-28, made
vessel hoardings and enforced watercraft safety regulations. They also were immediately present
and assisted }[PD8{F[) personnel when *]V` boat capsized, spilling the occupants into the river;
all 4 hoaters were rescued.
There were th.ree significant significant EMS responses, two on the North BeacJi one rnan sutThred a fatai
heari attack, another man sutThred hypothernuia; and the capsized hoat. The hypothermic man
chosc to ride out an cxtrenie high tide in his s]eeping hag whilc water floodcd his tent. He called
9-1-1 later that morning from his tem.
Of the 337 hours worked by SEOs on dipnet activity. the majority was spent on the North Beach
dealing with parkin.g, carnpi.ng, ctunpflres, and ATV use. Police Officers spent 42 overtime
hours on dedicated Fishery-related activity on the beaches, in addition to logging 64 hours
handling 64 Fishery-related calls for service. %8O^ and Officers patrolled the beaches via ATV
and on rare occasion, a Department SUV, The S[}V was used when both ATVs were
temporarily 'm<~of-srrvicoand prompt aceess to the fkr reaches of the beach was necessary,
Alaska Wildlife Troopers (/\0VT>were discreetly present during the Fishery, on the North Beach
and, to a greater extent, at the City Dock. The local AVYT Detachment lent us a new Polaris
Ranger 6-wheeler this year for use during the Fishery; this ATV was an exceptional addition to
our 4-wheeler and greatly enhanced beach patrols wid moving about the long stretches of bvuck.
Four pay shacks were placed at the same locations as the last 2 years, and ooe (S. Spruco)
sustained minor damage after an RV drove into it while pulling up to the pay window.

This season saw a decrease of 23 "on shift" hours and a decrease of 84 dedicated OT hours from
Officers' 2008 total time, artd 16.5 fewer Adrniaistrative hou.rs, The SEOs also spent 73 fewer
hours this season than 2008. The decrease in dedicated OT was a direct result of things going 50

The "Salmon Frenzy" missionary gi was preseni again in this season, with 120 volunteers on

The additional Handica., Parking signs plus fresh blue paint nn the cement barrier helped ns^ku
the spots more visible to those needing them and those who shouldn't. The HCP Parking arca on
the north side ofthe S. Sprucc parking lot was not so dearlv marked and created confusion and
tlie dismissal of one citation due 1n being poorly marked.
The S. Spruce "City Vehicles Only"' parking area was not clearly marked which contributed to
more parking confusion. Those spots are used primarily by Police which can, in all reality, park
anywhere while down there on calls. )fthere isu genuine need for dedicated C/ry Vehicles ()nf/
parking, it might be relocated thereby creating another 2-3 general parking spots.
Last year there were at Ieast Iwo "2-1--ir lirking" signs 011 the hiock wa at uihe end of S. Forest
Drive: this year there were none until the end of the season and that area became heavily
congested as the season promiesseck those signs lasted very briefly, until they were ruined by
rai n.
Parking and camping fees were S15, the same as last year, with cash or check payment options at
the pay shac]cs and/or iron rangers. Many eompaints were received about thc i2-}iour payment
period, with eople suggesting it he knthened to a fufl day (24 hrs),
Non-compliance with camping fees and posting of camping permits was an cnthrcernent issue
due to poor communication and/or misunderstanding of requirements; the SEOs issued many
warnings to gain compliance. Many campers claimed they were not informed of the camping fee
hy shack m1cmJuu1s.
Parking at the City Dock was jam-packed on thc busy tides. The majority of painted parking
spots accommodated 3-deep riruck/trailer) parking, which led to vehicles in the middle getting
boxed in, which led to trailers being moved, police being called "to move him out of my way"
(unoccupied, locked trucks), and nasty windshield notes.
Overflow parking at the Little League fields went smoothly due to the ariticipated need, and
pre-
planned staffing traffic contro] on S. Spruee to )jandie the incrcased traffic on the 2
weekends.
The 6x6 posts 8 chain fencin2 on. the N. Beaeh crcated an excellent harricr for p the
dunes and establishing a horder fur tents canipfires. The orange fc'n however, was again
cut, trampled, and moved by those wishing to accommodate their own desires for space.
The Poit.A4'ottie were well rnaintained and serviced this season, with iittle-to-no complaints
expressed,
bumnsters filled quickly ou busy days and when overflowing, peopie just piled trash hig)r OT
beside them, This created a problem for servicing, as the garbage truck driver( would not
empty dwripsters with trash piied. oo the lids wriru,sb piled piled beside the dumpste Litter trash
isn significant issue during the Fisberv, arid managernent strategy should continue addressing
this.
The presence of four SEOs again this year contributed significantly to smooth operations. They
were a constant presenee to axswer questions, give g direction monitor enforee parking and
traffic flow, and provide immediate assistance with various problems.
Ibe additional ATV was a va resource for traversing the heaches easily quickly, The
larger 6x6 Ranger with cargo area proved to be a terrific asset with greater functionality than the
4`v|`ecler. It was an unexpected loaner from AWT this year, as we'd requested to borrow a
4whee]er as i.n years past. This Polaris Ranger may not he availahle from them next year
The Salmon Frenzv volunteers were a tremendous help on both beaches and the City Dock, with
most of their people on the North Beach, Their presenee provided resources to Di and non
dipytrx,ubUdron,b.affiouon{ro|, and parking monitoring directing. They &so provided free
hotdoas, hot chocolate, activities for children, Lind a first-aid station.
Recomm.endatjons for 2010
Signage
I. Set u line oC "No Vehicles Beyond This Point" signs along t}ie Left side of 5. Spi
extended. for clear direction regarding motor vehicles between S. Spruce/Mouth of the River.
The two there this year. plus their closc-in location, were not very visible nor in a strategic
place.
2, Determine Nv heth er there is a need for dedicated City Vehicles On/v parking and confirm
specific location,
3. Affix durable, weather-resistant "2-Hour Parking" signs to thc wall at thc end of S. Forest
Drive.
4. Attach a dry-erase hoard to tile pay shacics for Iate-ndtiee messages hshing updates. extreme
high tide times, and other generai inforrnation to the publie.
Fencing
Extend post/chain feuicing heyond the end of ICenai Ave, or put nothing there. The orange
fencing merely gets moved, trampled, or vandalized and because irs unmarked private
property there is little KPD can do other than spend a lot of time telling people to move their
stuff, stay out of the grass, and P&R retrieve/repair orange feneing.
6
Camping
1. Provide clear weatherproof bqgs thrpenple to affix to their x, Include fasteners that
are easy to use and don't puneture fabric.
Provide pay shack workers with written guidelines/instructions for campers.
3. Establish a written definition of "camping".
Suuritv Enforcement
1. Continue with four Seasonal Enforcement Officers, and anticipate schedule dedicated
Dipnet Officer shifts teasia to cancel if not necessary. than to last minute call folks in).
2. Purchase a larger ATV similar to this year's loaner 6x6, due to the ereater versatility and
inulti-funetion use; MSRP for a sirnilar ATY is roughly 5] 3,000 with standard equipment.
This additional ATV would complement the Department's 5^Jr old 4x`o`fnc.APolaris

Re: 2009 Kenai River Dipnet Fishery
Introduction
This report includes a summary of Kenai Police Department Seasonal Enforcement Officer
activity specific to the dipnet fishery, observations, statistics, problems encountered, and
thoughts for improvement for the 2010 season.
The fishery opened on Friday, July 10 at 0600 and closed on Friday, July 31 at 2300 hours
There were no emergency openings or closings called for by the Alaska Department of Fish and
Game during the 2009 dipnet fishery,
This season there were again four Seasonal Officers (SEOs) employed by the Kenai Police
Department, The SEOs spent a total of 510 hours working during the dipnet fishery Out of
these, a total of 337 hours were spent for dipnet (time on the beaches, at Kenai City Dock, or
performing other dipnet-related duties) The majority of time spent at these locations was
handling problems and being a general police presence The remaining non-dipnet time was
spent handling other calls for service such as bike thefts, vandalism& illegal camping, and ATV
complaints, or performing other miscellaneous administrative duties at the police

Similar to previous years, the 2009 dipnet season started slowly and increased in intensity until
its peak a little after a week into the season. The lower parking lot at North beach, the overflow
parking at the Little League fields on South Spruce, and parking along South Spruce, was
completely full by July 18 The South Beach, near the mouth, was also highly saturated by this
date. On the 18 fishing had picked up slightly, and many people were on the beach; a story
written in the Anchorage Daily News and the Peninsula Clarion claiming a huge run of fish was
probably the major contributing factor &this huge influx, This weekend has been shown to be
the busiest weekend of dipnet for the past two years. After this weekend the amount of people
began to decline until July 31 By the end of the season the North beach

^EwA/ POLICE DEPARTMENT
Another issue that was dealt with on multiple occasions at
Kenai their
yehicles hlocked iri by other vehicles. Due to the fact that
many of the parking lanes were about three vehicles deep,
often boaters would park their vehicles in the middie ofthe
lanes, ony to retu.rn to discover oth vehicles parked both
ends, blocking them in This was less of'u problem daring

present at the dock to help regulate traffic.

Miscellaneous
Restroorns at the beaches and boat iaunch were well maintained this year On several occasions,
someone put rocks and toilet paper in the bathroom at the inunieipai park, causing it to overflow,
hut the probiem did not continue to occur aiI season. The port-opotties at the end ofKenai
Avenue were the most highly used of all the restrooms and therefore needed the most
maintenance
The dumpsters were frequently overtlowing. in addition the garbage truck drivers would not

Anoth latic area in the North Beach

Parking for maiiiienance vehicles was another problern SEOs experienced du6nAdiyn,t
ln the past the north side of the barrier on the northern most section on the asphalt was
reserved for maintenance vehicles, This was a problem in the past because it is
improperly simed. This year temporary signs (paper signs on posts stuck in traffic cones)
designated the south side of the same barrier as the maintenance vehicle parking area.
These temporary signs did no last long in the ram and wind. The north side ofthe barrier
needs to be the maintenance/city vehicle parking area. It needs to be appropriately signed
with permanent signs and pairned a bright color, such as yellow or red., to designate it as a
no-parking zone for the public.
The new signs at the North Beach entrance were a great improvement to the area. The
color sign that displayed all the camping/fires/ATV rules seemed to cut down on the
number of violations occurring on the beach. The same goes for the color sign at the end
of South Forest,
Unfortunately the signs posted as "no motor vehicles past this point" to the left oythe
North Beach South Spruce entrance were nor. as numerous as hxst ycar. There were only
two and they were up close to th.e frncing. Next year it would be great to have rnany of
these signs in a line do the beach to the water
The new wood post and chain fence at North Beach worked great for protecting the
dunes. Once the chain was strung there were very little problems concerning the dunes.
Prior to8ipnot there were some problems with the removal nf posts, During dipnet there
were no ATVs in the dunes aM minor amounts of foot traflic,
The path from Municipal Park to North Beach lost sorne posts during dipnet. The posts at
the top and bottom of this path were great for cutting down on ATV traffic. Unfortunately
these posts were removed by vandais, Perhaps it would be best ifthese posts were
cemented in place tV ensure their longevity.
Thei e were many complaints received froni the residents on Toyon Way aid South
Forest concerning the amount of traffic at the end of South Forest. During peak days, cars
would be parked on both sides choking the street and rnaking it difficult for the residents
to access their hornes; i.t was less ofa problem during the weekdays. Many ofthese
complainants proposed a no parking zone be instated on one side of South Forest. This
would quickly scive the probiem as long as the no parking zone had enough signs, and
the curb was painted
We received many complaints about people parking for excessive amounts of time at the
end of S. Forest. There was a severe ack oftwo hour parking only signs this year at the
end of the street, This problem occurred mn all days nF the week, not just during peak
days
Thc no parking zone an South Spnice generaied many parki.ng tickets during this dipnet
season, Out ofthe 26 citations that were issued during the peak of the season, a majority

ofthese were written for parking in&actions ori S Spruce. The main concentration of
people parking in the no parking zone purked near the "erflnmce only" sign to the
Cathoiic Church, It may he prudent to post a rio parking sign iri this area to eut down an
this problem. in addition it would be beneficial to repaint the curbs on both sides of South
Spruee in the no parking zones,
At the Ci Dock the lanes for incoming and outgoing boaters need to be marked so that
there is no confusion about where to go There were several calls for service for people
yelling at onc another for cutting in the line, Havirig it clearly rnarked out. would reduce
the conthsion and prohlerns that we had for disgruntled fl One other ibing is to
have the iaunching area designated for twa lanes for Iaunching and twa lanes pick up.
It would help ifthe ATV Helmet Laws were posted on the beach pay shazks, We had an
extreme amount of contacts with people letting their children on ATVs without helmets
m it would hr nice to have u dual purpose vehicle for SB0 use during the dipnet fishery.
One that can be taken on the beach and an paved roadways. That would be more praetieai
thanjust having a vehicte that can only be used on tbe beach
Conclusion
Overal(,SEOs operated efficiently and worked well together it significantly helped that all four
SEOs from 2008 returned to work as SE,Os in 2009 This greatly reduced the amount or SE0
training time that was needed at the
beginning ofthe sunimer, and allowed the
SEOs to he more proactive in the
community during the first weeks ofthe
Throughout the <Upoe< season, O0Os had
the opportunity to work elosely with the
public, being a poliet presence on the
beaches, and buiiding positive puhlic
reiations through service acts for the
public, such as providing assistance with
vehicle bekouts, assisting with stuc.lc
vehicles, and shuttling ofelderly Salmon
Frenzy volunteers
Overall a was urelatively good season. aside from the iack of sun and clear skies in July.
Compared to last year, some problems such as ATV use have declined, while other problems
such as iIIegaJ camping and park.ing have grown. SFOs were kept busy throughout the season
dealing with many various problerns, none ofwhich proved to be too difficuh to handle

M EM ORAND
The 2009 Personal Use Fishery opened 6:00 am on Friday. July 10 and closed at 11:00 pm on Friday,
July 31 Preparation started well in advance of the opening day beginning with the completion of the
north beach fencing project, ordering and installing signs, printing of brochures and maps, conducting
staff training and meetings, securing vendors and placement of fee stations boxes.
The Personal Use Fishery on the Kenai seems to have grown in popularity over the years and
participation Ievels ir Ibis season's fishery appears to have exceeded all others, The Kenai Dock Facility
also experienced an increase in boaters Wth several days marked by boaters exceeding the carrying
capacity of the parking lot. Increased levels on the Kenai were probably influenced by economics (people
wanting to fill their freezers), good return of fish, and river closures in other parts of the state. Steady fuel
prices in July coupled with many residents choosing to vacation in-state with travel plans centered around
the tishery probably contributed to its popularity as wefl.
This summer rnarked the flrst season for the permanent fence proteching the north beach dunes. The
new fencing went a long way toward deterring unwanted foot-traffic resulting in strong growth of beach
rye in areas othenMse typically trampled by pedestrian traffic,
Several concrete fire rings on the north beach (going west from Spruce St.) were placed this season
along with two 4ft x 6ft colored informatior signs, One sgn was placed at the erid of South Spruce St
and the other at the end of South Forest Dr. A third 4ft x 6ft sign was placed on the beach paraliel with
South Forest Dr. prohibiting parking and fire from this point westward. Good compliance was
demonstrated and the department did not receive any complaints from the neighborhood residents along
the b!uff with respect to oud noise or smoke,
As a response to extra traffic being directed onto Overland Ave., the Public Works Department arranged
for pedestrian lanes to be painted along the shouder of this road in addition to providing directional signs
for vehicular traffic. This appeared to have reduced the nurnber of compints from private property
owners in this area,
The North American Mission Board Volunteer effort was in full swing by the week of July 14th, Their
effort was expanded to the South Beach and are currently planning a return for next season. Brenda
Crim reported they had 300 vokjnteers that gave 9,000 volunteer hours (not counting planning,
17
communication, fundraising, setup and take-down). The following is a summary of items given away and
volunteer service provided:

"v- Provided a first aid station
S&R Enterprises provided the necessary dumpsters and removal of hulk trash both on the North and
South Beach. Parks staff supplemented this effort by picldng up trash on a datly basis along with the
North American Mission Board. The KCHS Cross-Country Ski Booster Club assisted with clean up half-
days vnMnAdaysandThursdays. The club donated approximately 120 man-hours in addition to 50 man-
hours setting up the fencing on the South Beach.
Approximat&y 15 man-hours were spent raking the beach during the fishery in an effort the keep the fish
waste to a minimum, Much of Wis effo1 is strictly tide dependant during the evening or early rnorning
hours. Fish waste totes were placed on the beach and received some use, particularly when afilet
station was placed next to it. Waste from the totes was emptied into a dumpster stationed in the parking
Sanitation Facilities
Peninsula Pumping provided portable toiIet service throughout the fishery. Bid specs were generated thi
season and distributed for bidding resulting in very favorable costs compared to last season. Savings
over ast year was approdmately $20760, Portable units were basicaijy serviced twice per day on
Friday, Saturday, and Sundays on the North and Side Beaches due to demand. CorTsideration was given
in 2008 to constructing a permanent restroom at the end of Kenai Ave. Based on 2008 service costs, Ibe
payback time was projected to be around 6 to 9 years. However, based on 2009 service costs the
payback stretches to around 13 to 15 years.
Sand Dune Protection
Measures to protect the North Beach dunes, including permanent fencing, signage and enforcement,
worked extremely well. The fencing was a barrier that served well as a deterrent and provided the
necessary durability to withstand abuse. The dunes were noticeably less trampled and healthier at the
cornpletion of this fishery thari from years pasi.
Parking
The Kenai Little League parking nt was once again used for over-flow parking. The Kenai Little League
hosted a Major boy's tournament during the first weekend of the fishery but did not pose any conflicts,
Parking on Spruce St was very congested going into the second and third weekend but the American
Mission Board vounteers were abte to assist irnrnerisely by distributing fee envelopes wtiich helped keep
the traffic flowing. Allowing parking on the North Beach west of Spruce St this season relieved some of
the congestion that otherwise would have been created in the parking lot and other nearby areas.

Recommendations
Fees
Sub-total $15,562
Grand Total Expenses $18,307
The following recommendations are preliminary based on initial observations and will be further reviewed
throughout the process:
The City adrniriistration supports the inerease of dipnekre{ated parking fees d camping fees only for th
dates that Fish and Game authorizes personal use dipnet fishing on the Kenai River. For the days/dates
hetore and after the authorized dipnet fishery the fees would not ricrease. The increase in fees would
reduce the need for cash exchange arid the need to carry extra five dollar bills in the shacks, as well as
ensure adequate revenues, The recommended fees during the dipnet fishery are as follows:
North and South heach parking (per 12 hrs) 530 (50 fee during non-dipnet dates)
North and South beach camping O (50 fee during non-dipnet dates)
Parking OnIy at City Dock 515 (510 fee during non-dipnet dates)
Boat Launch at City Dock (includes parking) $20 ($15 fee during non-dipnet dates)
Private Propertv on North Beach
Considerat[on shoutd he given to accjuiring remaining privately owned properties along Kena Avenue.
This will add to hetter preservation and protection of the dunes and surroundirig areas.
Increase Funding (hm) for Parks Employees
Many of the currentty funded hours are being dedicated to the Personal Use Fishery (fee shack
operation) leaving shortage of hours for remainder of season, particularly early spring startup and fall.
South Beach Permanent F
South Beach fencing similar to the North Side should be added for the protection of environmentally
sensitive grass areas,
Vendors
Consideration should be given to better defining a program for vendors wishing to capitalize on the
Personal Use Fishery, i.e,, registration process, Iocation, fees, etc.
