Re: Ordinance 2714 -2013, ADEC Grant for Bacteria Level Monitoring in the Kenai River
The purpose of this correspondence is to recommend Council approval of the above referenced
ordinance. This action provides for the appropriation of funds to support testing for coliform and
enterococci bacteria in the Kenai River during the Personal Use Fishery by the Kenai Watershed
Forum (KWF).
This appropriation provides funding for additional testing that was performed under the 2012
agreement and to provide better baseline sampling in advance of the 2013 Personal Use Fishery.
Thank you for your attention in this matter.
