Agenda Statement
Meeting Date: October 2, 2013
To: Port and Commerce Advisory Board
From: Seward Harbormaster
Agenda Item: RECOMMENDING TO THE CITY
COUNCIL CHANGES TO THE 2013 PORT AND
HARBOR TARIFF REGULATIONS FOR 2014 AND 2015
BACKGROUND & JUSTIFICATION:
As you may recall, the Harbor moorage rates (and City electric rates) are automatically adjusted
based on changes in the Consumer Price Index. In 2013, the agreement with Shoreside Petroleum
was also amended to reflect CPI changes. In addition, there are two other changes proposed to the
2014 and 2015 tariffs that are simply clarifying corrections: on the cover and on the list of available
transient (guest) docks.
Here is a list of these changes in sequential order:
1) On the cover of the tariff, the word Industrial needs to be added to differentiate SMIC from
the Seward Marine Center (not part of the Harbor Tariff).
2) On page I I the listing of transient (guest) docks is not accurate and needs to be corrected.
3) On page 12, Section 205 (b) needs to be changed to reflect the correct base years used for
CPI calculations.
4) On page 12, Section 205 c) the Transient (Guest) rates reflect a 2.6% CPI adjustment for
2014 and again for 2015.
5) On page 16, Section 215 (a) the Dockage rates reflect a 2.6% CPI adjustment for 2014 and
again for 2015.
6) On page 16, Section 215 c) needs to be changed to reflect the correct base years used for CPI
calculations.
7) On page 17, Section 225 (a) (2) reflects proposed changes to the Harbor and SMIC electrical
rates. The Electric Tariff states that rates will increase automatically every year based on two
factors: inflation and the cost of electricity. The Harbor and SMIC electrical rates were
increased in 2013 based only on the CPI increase. In February 2013 there was a 7% increase
in rates paid by the Harbor, but it was not passed along to customers. For that reason, the
percentage increases proposed are as follows: 2014 Harbor- 8.3%; 2014 SMIC- 6.25%; 2014
customer charges- 2.6%; 2015 Harbor- 3.8%; 2015 SMIC- 2.9%; and 2015 customer
charges- 2.6%.
8) On page 27, Section 290 (a) the gas and diesel rates are increased by 2.6% in both 2014 and
2015 to reflect CPI changes. (The rates were increased for 2013 by contract, but those
increases did not get included into the 2013 Tariff).
INTENT:
To establish rates for the 2014-2015 Port & Harbor Tariff Regulations.

Note: 2013 Transient moorage revenues were underestimated by approximately 17%.
2013 Small Boat Harbor Power Sales Budget Revenue projection = $286,000
2014 Small Boat Harbor Power Sales Budget Revenue projection = $360,000
2015 Small Boat Harbor Power Sales Budget Revenue projection = $400,000
Note: 2013 Power sales revenues were significantly underestimated. Meanwhile, these revenues
barely cover the cost of purchasing the power.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PORT AND COMMERCE ADVISORY BOARD
OF THE CITY OF SEWARD, ALASKA RECOMMENDING THAT THE
CITY COUNCIL AMEND THE PORT & HARBOR TARIFF REGULATIONS
FOR 2014 AND 2015
WHEREAS, the Seward City Council will review all enterprise fund tariffs in preparation

WHEREAS, the Seward Small Boat Harbor has critical capital asset replacement needs as

private business entities, in that they establish charges intended to cover the full cost of providing
services including operations and maintenance, overhead, system expansion, utilities, and charges for
the use of capital facilities; and
WHEREAS, due to the need to regularly review and update charges to account for the
impact of inflation and other cost increases, it is prudent to update charges annually.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Port and Commerce Advisory Board of
the City of Seward, Alaska recommends that:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Seward approve rates, fees, and charges
incorporated herein by reference and attached hereto as "2014 Port and Harbor Regulations" for

SECTION II - SERVICES AND CHARGES
200 MOORAGE
Outside the Small Boat Harbor: Vessels berthing or departing city docks, wharves, or any other terminal facility,
including the shiplift system, must use sufficient tugs so that vessels can be berthed or removed in a safe manner.
Berthing speed shall not exceed sixteen feet per minute, unless approved by the Harbormaster.
Within the Small Boat Harbor:
(a) Assignment of Berths. The Small Boat Harbor is often congested and it is the policy of the City of Seward
to provide for the maximum public use of available facilities. The Harbormaster shall have discretion to
implement that policy.
Berth assignments to particular slips on the City of Seward float system are made by the Harbormaster.
Berth assignments are made to a particular combination of vessel and owner/operator, are not assignable by
the owner/operator and automatically expire upon sale or transfer of the vessel to another owner/operator.
A berth assignment is not a lease or an exclusive right to occupy any particular slip. In order to maximize
the public's use of existing facilities, it is common for the Harbormaster to temporarily assign vessels to slips
normally used by another vessel when that vessel is out of the harbor.
(b) Waiting List for Permanent Slip Assignment. Due to the demand for slips on the City of Seward float
system, vessels will be assigned permanent slips based on waiting lists maintained by the Harbormaster's
office. Separate waiting lists shall be maintained for the following size floats:
17 feet (accommodates vessel 12 to 21 feet)
23 feet (accommodates vessel 22 to 26 feet)
32 feet (accommodates vessel 27 to 36 feet)
40 feet (accommodates vessel 37 to 44 feet)
50 feet (accommodates vessel 45 to 54 feet)
60 feet (accommodates vessel 55 to 64 feet)
75 feet (accommodates vessel 65 to 79 feet)
90 feet (accommodates vessel 80 to 94 feet)
100 feet (accommodates vessel 95 to 104 feet)
105 feet or longer- side tie only- up to 150 feet
Assignments to a permanent slip from the waiting lists shall be made year round by the Harbormaster based
on the slip size available and the most senior name on the waiting list for that size slip.
There is a fee of THIRTY ONE DOLLARS AND FIFTY CENTS ($31.50) per year per listing on the
waiting list(s) for a permanent slip assignment. The wait list year runs November 1 through October 31.
(c) Permanent Slip Assignments
(1) The Harbormaster may assign a specific slip on the City of Seward float system within the Small
Boat Harbor to a particular vessel on an annual basis.
(2) A permanent slip assignment to a vessel is not a lease or right to occupy a particular slip and may not
be assigned.
(3) To maximize the use of the Small Boat Harbor, a permanently assigned slip may be assigned to a
transient vessel when the permanently assigned owner/vessel is out of the harbor.
Port and Harbor Tariff Regulations City of Seward, Alaska
Revised Effective January], 2014 10
(4) Upon the return of the permanently assigned vessel to the Small Boat Harbor (provided proper
notifications are given and based on harbor congestion and the difficulties involved in moving
vessels), the Harbormaster will attempt to rearrange vessels so that a vessel with a permanent slip
assignment may berth at that assigned slip.
(5) A vessel assigned a permanent slip assignment must notify the Harbormaster when departing the
harbor for more than five (5) days. If away from Seward for more than five (5) days, a permanently
assigned vessel should notify the Harbormaster of its intended arrival date and time back into the
Small Boat Harbor.
(d) Grace Period for Late Renewals. A permanent slip holder who fails to renew by December 31 may renew
prior to January 15 rather than relinquish the slip, provided that (1) all other permanent moorage
requirements are met, and the applicable transient rate is paid on or before January 15.
(e) New permanent slip assignment. For anew permanent slip moorage agreement entered into after January
1, the following rules and charges apply:
(1) If the customer has already paid for transient moorage, the customer charges will be converted from
transient charges to tenant charges on the effective date of the slip assignment. The tenant annual
moorage fee shall be charged on a pro -rated basis and is due in full on the date of the slip
assignment.
(2) If the customer is new to the harbor and has not paid any moorage fees, the annual moorage fee shall
be charged on a prorated basis and is due in full on the date of the slip assignment.
(3) As stated in paragraphs (e) (1) and (2) above, pro -rated basis shall be calculated by dividing the
annual moorage amount by 12, and charging the new tenant 1/ 121h of the annual tenant moorage rate
per calendar month for the remainder of the calendar year. If a slip assignment occurs during a
calendar month, the partial month will be charged the lesser of the daily rate or 11121h the annual
amount.
(f) Permanent and Temporary (Transient) Slip Assignments. There are two types of slip assignments at the
City of Seward Small Boat Harbor. The first is a permanently assigned slip and the second is a transient
slip. Slips that are permanently assigned to a boat/owner may be used for transient moorage when the
permanently assigned vessel is away from the slip.
(g) Notice Upon Arrival. All vessels should notify the Seward Small Boat Harbor office prior to arrival. Those
vessels which have received permanently assigned slips should notify the Harbormaster's office twenty-four
(24) hours prior to expected arrival to allow the harbor staff time to free the slip. If, despite reasonable
efforts, the Harbormaster is unable to clear a permanently assigned slip due to congestion, high winds or
safety considerations, a vessel with a permanently assigned slip may be required to temporarily use a
transient slip or float as directed by the Harbormaster.
Vessels entering the Small Boat Harbor which have not, for any reason, received a berthing assignment by
radio contact or otherwise shall be restricted to the following areas: west side of X float; south side of F
float; K float; L float; I dock; and T dock e .
If, as is frequently the case during periods of congestion, all of the above berths are full, avessel is permitted
to raft to a vessel already berthed.
(h) Vessel Registration. All vessels must have a current registration form (Application and Agreement for
Transient Moorage) on file with the Harbormaster. These forms must be filed immediately upon arrival at
the Small Boat Harbor. However, vessels that arrive after normal Harbormaster office hours must register
before 10:00 a.m. the following day.
Port and Harbor Tariff Regulations City of Seward, Alaska

continue until such vessel is completely freed from and has vacated the berth.
A vessel berthed at any time between 12:01 a.m. and midnight shall be charged a full day's charge;

being repaired by ship repair and maintenance businesses occupying upland facilities at the Seward Marine
Industrial Center will therefore be preferred over cargo operations. Full dockage will be charged if and
when a vessel is permitted to make repairs or alterations, shore for special freight, outfit, store or fumigate
while docked at a City dock or terminal facility.
(d) Preference to Reserved Dock Use. A vessel may be permitted to berth at a City dock or terminal facility of
the City of Seward without having first made written application for a berth assignment and without such an
assignment having been granted. However, priority is given to City dock use reserved in advance with the
Harbormaster. Further, any vessel seeking a berth at a city dock for a period longer than six (6) hours must
complete, within twenty-four hours of arrival in the harbor, an Application and Agreement for Transient
Moorage (see "Forms" in the preface of this document), or have a current copy of same on file in the office
of the Harbormaster. Any vessel planning to remain at a city dock for a period of less than six (6) hours
must notify the Harbormaster's office of such plan prior to arrival in the harbor.
The City docks in the Small Boat Harbor include those adjacent to the fish processor's on -shore facilities,
including the licensed dock area. The dock is to be used first for receiving and delivery of fish and fish
products to the processor's on -shore facilities. In addition, the East SMIC Dock is to be used first for
receiving and delivery of fish and fish products to the processor's on -shore facilities. Reservations remain
effective if such use begins within twenty-four (24) hours of the scheduled use or landing.
Late use or arrival will be rescheduled on a space available basis. Reservation of dock use must specify
arrival and departure dates and the nature and quantity of the freight to be loaded or discharged.
A vessel or vessel agent may secure reserved dock space under the following conditions:
(1) Request for reservation is made on a Vessel Moorage Application (see "Forms" in the preface ofthis
document), indicating berth and date(s) requested.
(2) Reservation request must be received by the Harbormaster a minimum of seven (7) days prior to
anticipated vessel arrival.
(3) The vessel agent or other person requesting a berth ("berthing agent") must provide, as may be
requested by the Harbormaster as a part of the berthing process, to the extent of his knowledge, all
information called for by any Supplement to Vessel Moorage Application (see "Forms" in the preface
of this document) or any other information respecting the vessel including, but not limited to, its
estimated arrival and departure, amount(s) and type(s) of cargo to be loaded/discharged, estimate of
amount of each category of port charges, as enumerated, and party responsible therefor. The
submission of this form, signed by the berthing agent, shall constitute the berthing agent's attestation
as to the accuracy of the information therein supplied, based upon and to the extent of information
made available to the berthing agent at the time of submission; and the berthing agent shall be held
personally liable to the City of Seward for any financial loss suffered by the City of Seward as aresult
of the agent's failure to so report accurately.
Should the berthing agent, subsequent to submission of this form, receive information which
materially differs from the information previously provided, and which information the agent
reasonably believes is not equally known to the Harbormaster, it shall immediately notify the
Harbormaster and, if requested by the Harbormaster, promptly file an amended Supplement to
Vessel Moorage Application with the Harbormaster.
Port and Harbor Tariff Regulations City of Seward, Alaska
Revised Effective January], 2014 14

conflicts be found, the Harbormaster shall mediate a resolution which will attempt to minimize
negative impacts on both (or all) parties.
(5) Full dockage fees are payable to the City of Seward at the time of reservation. Prepaid dockage fees
will be non-refundable unless a written cancellation is received by the Port a minimum of fourteen
(14) days prior to scheduled vessel arrival. (See also Section I, Responsibility for Charges,
Collection and Guarantee of Charge.)
(6) All estimates of terminal charges are subject to approval and/or adjustment by the Harbormaster.
The Harbormaster shall promptly, after receipt of said estimate, advise the berthing agent as to (1) its
approval or adjusted estimate of terminal charges, and (2) whether posting of cash or security is
required for any one or more categories of such charges and the amount thereof.
(7) An agreement is made to work continuously utilizing not less than day and early night shifts (first and
second shifts) and multiple longshore gangs, cranes, and equipment to the fullest extent available in
accordance with circumstances then prevailing.
(8) In addition to the terms for berth reservation and establishment of financial responsibility as set forth
herein, requests for berth reservation and assignments of berths shall otherwise be in accordance
with all local rules and regulations established by the City of Seward.
(e) Berth May be Granted Before Payment. For safety or other reasons, the City of Seward, in some
circumstances, may grant a vessel a temporary berth before the owner or agent has paid all applicable
charges or otherwise complied with all applicable tariff provisions or conditions of berthing. In such
circumstances, the vessel may unload its cargo only if (1) the Harbormaster determines that a regular berth
is available, and (2) the owner or agent pays all applicable charges and complies with all other applicable
tariff provisions and conditions of berthing. If no regular berth is available or the vessel owner or agent
does not pay all applicable charges and comply with other applicable provisions, the vessel may not unload
its cargo and shall sail on the next tide. The vessel shall be assessed appropriate fees as set forth in this
tariff.
(f) Charges on Vessel Shifting. When a vessel is shifted directly from one wharf or berth to another wharf or
berth operated by the City of Seward, the total time at such berths will be considered together when
computing the dockage charge.
(g) Charges to Assisting Vessels. A single vessel, when actively engaged as a tug boat assisting and made fast
outboard of a vessel loading or discharging cargo, will be accorded free dockage.
NOTE: Tug boats leaving a tended vessel for the purpose of assisting any other vessel shallhave waived its
right to free dockage for the entire period of berthing by its tended vessel.
(h) Notice of Hazardous Cargo and Permit Requirement. Notice shall be given to the Harbormaster of any
vessel carrying cargo which is hazardous, extremely flammable, corrosive, explosive or otherwise poses a
significant risk of harm to property or persons at least twenty-four (24) hours prior to landing or use of
docks. The Harbormaster, at his sole discretion, may issue a permit for dock use if he finds that sufficient
precautions have been taken to minimize any potential risks presented by such cargo.
(i) Dockside Lay Time. Dockside lay time may be allowed as scheduling permits. However, all vessels must
be removed from dockside within three (3) hours of receiving notice from the Harbormaster or his agents.

vessel owner/operator to assure that adequate handling lines are placed and manned on the vessel upon its
return to the water.
(d) Dockside Lay Time. Dockside lay time may be allowed as scheduling permits. However, all vessels must
be removed from dockside within three (3) hours of receiving notice from the Harbormaster or his agents.

City's 50-ton Travelift. A separate lift fee is generated whenever a vessel is lifted, even if it is only lifted and
relocated on land. Lift fees do not include overtime labor charges for operation of the Travelift system as
described in Subsection 225 of this tariff.
(b) Lift Fee
Port and Harbor Tariff Regulations City of Seward, Alaska

once a lift has commenced, even if that lift is subsequently interrupted, suspended or canceled for any
reason. The risk of loss because of a suspended or canceled lift by reason of mechanical failure or
difficulty with the Travelift system is the responsibility of the vessel owner/operator. Once a lift is
scheduled and the boat owner fails to show or cancel the lift at least one hour prior to the scheduled
lift time, the minimum lift fee will be charged.

vessel including, but not limited to, its estimated arrival and departure, amount(s) and type(s) of cargo
on board, and estimate of amount of each category of port charges, as enumerated. The submission of
this form, signed by the permit holder or his agent, shall constitute the permit holder's attestation as to
the accuracy of the information therein supplied; and the permit holder shall be held personally liable to
the shiplift operator and the City of Seward for any financial loss suffered by the shiplift operator and
City of Seward as a result of the permit holder's failure to so report accurately.

shiplift operator shall promptly, after receipt of said estimate, advise the permit holder as to (1) its
approval or adjusted estimate of lift charges, and (2) whether posting of cash or security is required
for any one or more categories of such charges and the amount thereof.

Seward Small Boat Harbor Plan
Notes October 2, 2013
To: Port and Commerce Advisory Committee
From: Harbormaster
1. Following the PACAB meeting on September 18, the plan was further reviewed and the
original text was restored so that comparisons can be made.
2. A Table of Recent Projects was prepared. (It may fit best under Plan Section 3.0 Existing
Harbor Facilities with a subsection titled: Developments at the Small Boat Harbor 2003-
2013).
3, Before this plan is finished a new, detailed harbor chart should be prepared and included.
4. Tables 3 and 4 have been revised to show the 12- 40 foot slips on P dock.
5. A table has been started, to show Commercial Passenger Vessel funds, Capital Repair
and Replacement funds, and Raw Fish tax funds.
6. Several hours were spent reviewing the 2013 permanent moorage contracts in order to
categorize the boats in the harbor: motor boats, sail boats, commercial fishing boats, etc.
7. At this point in the preparation of our plan, the key decision that is needed is how to
describe the possible capital projects, rank them in priority order, and decide on a funding
scheme.
