Background and justification:
The City of Seward' s enterprise funds are operated in a manner similar to private business entities,
in that they establish charges intended to cover the full cost of providing services (including direct
and indirect costs) for operations and maintenance, overhead, system expansion and charges for
the use of capital facilities. Equitable rates provide for the operating and capital needs of the
Harbor and SMIC while simultaneously attracting commerce to Seward and business providing
support services in the maritime trades.
Resolution 2009-116 was passed on November 9, 2009, and provided for automatic annual
adjustments to moorage and dockage rates by an amount equal to the five previous full years'
average increase in the Anchorage consumer price index for all urban customers. This resolution
recognizes the Port and Harbor Tariff Regulations.
The Harbor annually provides a copy of the Tariff to the Federal Maritime Commission. The Federal
Maritime Commission (FMC) is the independent federal agency responsible for regulating the U.S.
international ocean transportation system for the benefit of U.S. exporters, importers, and the U.S.
consumer.

about Dock, Float System and Passenger fees See below and in attachment A and B.
Replace 100 (b) City Dock with the definition of Dockfrom city code, and from 100 (c) remove the
wording (the city), add 100 (d) definition of Harborfrom city code, and change 230 (a) (to remove

(b) 100 (b)Dock."Dock" means any pier,float,slip,wharf,finger,ramp,
gangway, bulkhead, dolphin, or sea wall within the harbor or on city
tidelands.
(c) 100 (C) Float;Float System. Those portions of docks located within the
Boat Harbor that rise and fall with the tide, including the pilings, ramps,
ladders and utility connections.
(d) 100 (d) Harbor. "Harbor" means all waters, tidal areas, and adjacent
upland areas within the rubble mound breakwater which is listed and
identified in the land use plan as "harbor commercial and industrial,"

of vessels, including the port facilities located at SMIC, and all docks,
pilings, hoists, parking areas, leased water areas, concessions and/or
service facilities located within the area defined herein.
Also 230 (a) Passenger fees. Fee. In addition to other tariff provisions,the terms and
conditions of this item apply,and charges are assessed to passenger vessels,sport
fishing vessels,guide and outfitter vessels,and all other vessels carrying passengers
for compensation.A passenger fee of$3.50 per passenger shall be paid for each

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 Boat Harbor:
(a) Assignment of Berths.The 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 aparticular combination ofvessel 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 Reserved Slip Assignment.Due to the demand for slips on the City of Seward float
system,vessels willbe assigned reserved slips based on waiting lists maintained by the Harbormaster's
office.Separate waiting lists shall be maintained for the following size floats:
23 feet(accommodates vessel 19 to 26 feet)
32 feet(accommodates vessel27 to 36 feet)

50 feet(accommodates vessel45 to 54 feet)
75 feet(accommodates vessel65 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 reserved slip from the waiting lists shall be made 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 FORTY DOLLARS(S40.00)per year per listing on the waiting list(s)for a reserved
slip assignment.The wait list year runs November I'through October 31'.
(c) Reserved Slip Assignments
(1) The Harbormaster may assign a specific slip on the City of Seward float system within the Boat
Harbor to a particular vessel on a semi-annual basis.
(2) A reserved 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 Boat Harbor,a reserved assigned slip may be assigned to a transient
vessel when the reserved assigned owner/vessel is out of the harbor.
(4) Upon the return ofthe reserved assigned vessel to the BoatHarbor(providedproper 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 reserved slip assignment
may berth at that assigned slip.
Port and Harbor TariRegulations City of Seward,Alaska

reserved tenant 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 reserved 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
semi-annual moorage amount by 6,and charging the new tenant 1/6'of the reserved tenant
moorage rate per calendar month for the remainder of the moorage agreement. If a slip
assignment occurs during a calendar month,the partial month will be charged the lesser of the
daily rate or 1/6'the semi-annual amount.
(f) Reserved and Temporary(Transient)Slip Assignments.There are two types of slip assignments at the
City of Seward Boat Harbor.The first is a reserved assigned slip and the second is a transient slip.

vessels which have received reserved 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 reserved assigned slip due to congestion,high winds or

transient slip or float as directed by the Harbormaster.
Vessels entering the Boat Harbor which have not,for any reason,received a berthing assignment by
radio contactor otherwise shall be restricted to the following areas:west side ofX float;south side ofF
