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.

Agenda Statement
e of seik
Meeting Date: October 14, 2013 9
To: City Council P
aCs K
Through: City Manager Jim Hunt
From: Harbormaster Mack Funk
Agenda Item: Changes to the 2013 Port&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 11 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 13, Moorage Rates for Slip Assignments—updated annual rate
6) On page 16, Section 215 (a)the Dockage rates reflect a 2.6% CPI adjustment for 2014 and
again for 2015.
7) On page 16, Section 215 (c) needs to be changed to reflect the correct base years used for
CPI calculations.
8) 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%.
9) 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.

SECTION II- SERVICES AND CHARGES
bum 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 3 I.
(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 January 11, 2013 October 28,2013 Effective Janua+y 21, 2013 January I,2014 /0
(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 a new 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 1/12`x'of the annual tenant moorage
rate per calendar month for the remainder of the calendar year. If a slip assignment occurs during wij
a calendar month,the partial month will be charged the lesser of the daily rate or 1/12th 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/ownermay 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 city-dock.
If, as is frequently the case during periods of congestion, all of the above berths are full, a vessel 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
Port and Harbor Tariff Regulations City of Seward, Alaska
Revised January 11, 2013 October 28,2013 Effective January 2/, 2013 January 1,2014 1

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 Jbr 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 I through October 31.
(c) Permanent Slip Assignments
(I) 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 q/Seward, Alaska
Revised January 14, 2013 October 28,2013 Effective January 21, 2013 January 1, 2015 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 a new 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 1/12`x'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 1/12th 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.

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. lf,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; e lei L float;l dock; and T dock city dock.
If, as is frequently the case during periods of congestion, all of the above berths are full, a vessel is
permitted to raft to a vessel already berthed.
(I1) 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
