Subject: Address to the Council
Jeff,
We had a good discussion at last night's meeting with the Seward City Council about fish research and
enhancement. We signed a letter of support for the Alaska Sealife Center application to the Alaska Sustainable
Salmon Fund that would include a "Fish Workshop" in Seward in the May 2011 time period. We also decided to
invite the Cook Inlet Aquaculture Association Board and Regional Planning Team to meet in Seward to give more
visibility of their efforts (and possibly influence their efforts) in the Resurrection Bay watershed. As a final point,
would like to invite you to address the City Council at our December 13 Council Meeting or the January 24
Council Meeting. We could schedule this as a work session at 6 PM prior to the 7 PM Council Meeting or as part
of the meeting. We would like to make this an information session to the Council to allow us to better understand
the issues and capabilities for fish enhancement in our area. Please feel free to call me if you ned additional
information (Direct: 907-224-4012).
Thank you for considering our request... Phillip

Subject: Seward Salmon Enhancement Program
Attachments: Seward SEP proposal draft.doc
This is what the Advisory Group presented to City Council with respect to Fish Enhancement. If I
remember correctly, Council did not want to raise any fees in order to fund a fish enhancement
program. Council did not provide specific direction to the group following this presentation, nor were
any of the recommendations taken up by Council at a subsequent meeting.
The group did not meet again after this presentation.
Hope this is what you need.

Citizen's Advisory Group
Salmon Enhancement Program
Draft Proposal
March 23, 2006
Mission Statement:
To establish and maintain a community-based funding mechanism that will support
salmon enhancement and restoration efforts in Resurrection Bay.
Overview:
Common property harvest of coho and Chinook salmon that return to Resurrection Bay
provides a significant economic benefit to all whom live and conduct business in Seward,
Alaska. Given the seasonal nature of the many businesses that depend on these fisheries,
maintaining current levels of harvest while expanding opportunities to increase the
number of anglers visiting Resurrection Bay is important to well-being of the Seward
community.
Stocking programs operated by ADF&G, CIAA and ASLC contribute to the current
fishing opportunities within Resurrection Bay. These programs as well as habitat
restoration programs need to be supported by the Seward community to ensure economic
and resource benefits to Seward.
The Seward City Council established a Citizen's Advisory Group for Salmon
Enhancement in December of 2005. The majority of the Group's members have been
involved in the salmon enhancement program for several years. According to the Mayor,
the Council would like the Group to answer the following questions:
1. Should the City be involved in fish enhancement? If so, then how?
2. What funding is needed and what options are available to bring in revenue for
the project.
3. If the enhancement includes stocking, where would the City procure the
desired stocks and what stocks are desirable? (Does this require an RFP?)
4. Would the City have to develop a contract for an ongoing enhancement
project?
The following answers were developed by the Advisory Group.
1. The City of Seward should support the development of a sustainable Salmon
Enhancement Program. The level of involvement should be limited to the
administration of fiscal resources generated.
2. Identify five reasonable revenue sources dedicated to establishing a fund to be
used exclusively for the enhancement of salmon and salmon habitat
restoration. Approximately $100,000.00 is needed in order to launch the
program. Funding from the City of Seward to maintain and increase fishing
opportunities in Resurrection Bay will provide leverage to seek and obtain
additional funds through grants to further support the program.
3. The City can request salmon from CIAA,ASLC and ADF&G. Stocks may
include coho,chinook and other species if desirable.
4. In order to provide the greatest economic benefit and sustainable management
capability, long term contracts for fish stocking with the Cook Inlet
Aquaculture Association and the Alaska SeaLife Center would be most
effective.
Objectives:
1. City Council to appoint a five member Advisory Committee responsible for
the management of the Salmon Enhancement Funding Program(SEFP)to
provide financial support for specific enhancement or restoration projects.
Advisory Committee responsibilities would include but not be limited to
negotiating contracts with the CIAA and the ASLC for the purchase and
release of salmon.
2. City Council to establish and administer a dedicated fund for Salmon
Enhancement.
3. City Council to consider the following methods to generate revenue.
a) Increase local business license fee from $30.00 to $50.00, additional
revenue allocated to Salmon Enhancement.
b) Increase current port fee to $4.00 per head, and request$1.00 of that
amount for Salmon Enhancement.
c) Increase Launch Ramp Fees from$5.00 to $10.00 per day, with the
additional revenue allocated to Salmon Enhancement.
d) Implement a"sport fish processors fee"program whereby local sport
fish processing companies include a 2% surcharge on all sport fish
processing and shipping costs .
e) Asses a marine fuel tax dedicated to Salmon Enhancement.
,3. f) Appropriate funds from the existing Seward Bed Tax.
g) Produce a local "I support Salmon" Sticker to be sold at local
establishments.
h) Solicit donations or sponsorship from local businesses and those that
make a significant income on fish(i.e. Fedex). This may be realized
through(d).
i) Fish derby(both coho and future chinook) to generate funds using the
already developed Chamber of Commerce Coho Derby as a model.
Summary:
Timely consideration of the proposal outlined above is needed to maintain current
stocking levels and also to expand programs that have the potential to significantly
increase the number of anglers that visit Seward and Resurrection Bay. The Chamber of
Commerce as well as the Alaska SeaLife Center have historically provided support to the
stocking programs in Seward,but in order for this to continue a greater base of funding is
required. All citizens and businesses of Seward benefit from the common property
salmon fisheries in Resurrection Bay and their support is needed to maintain and improve
fishing opportunities. Approval of the program outlined above at the April Council
meeting would allow the City to account for the administration costs during budget
development which will occur this summer(2006).
Additional Considerations and Short-term Funding Solutions:
1. City of Seward should strive to obtain any additional salmon smolt that may be
available from CIAA this year.
2. Consider the possibility of"borrowing" funds from the bed tax for the 2006 year
and purchase any available salmon smolt to be stocked this year.
3. Solicit donations from local businesses that directly benefit from increased
salmon returns.

contribute more coho to the harvest than CIAA releases coho
