ACTION NARRATIVE
1:03:11 PM
CO-CHAIR GERAN TARR called the House Resources Standing
Committee meeting to order at 1:03 p.m. Representatives Tarr,
Josephson, Parish, Talerico, Rauscher, and Lincoln were present
at the call to order. Representatives Birch and Johnson arrived
as the meeting was in progress.
HB 354-DIVE FISHERY ASSESSMENTS
1:05:01 PM
CO-CHAIR TARR announced that the only order of business would be
HOUSE BILL NO. 354, "An Act relating to dive fishery management
assessment procedures."
1:05:26 PM
REPRESENTATIVE DAN ORTIZ, Alaska State Legislature, speaking as
the sponsor introduced HB 354. He said the bill is necessary
for the Southeast Alaska Regional Dive Fisheries Association
(SARDFA), the only dive fishery association in the state
regulated by AS 43.76.150-210, to amend the process undertaken
to modify the tax assessed on the geoduck, sea cucumber, and sea
urchin fisheries that the association represents. Each fishery
can tax itself at a different rate.
REPRESENTATIVE ORTIZ explained that under current policy a
majority of the permit holders is required to change an
assessment tax. This is problematic, he said, because many of
the permits are nontransferable and less than half of the
Commercial Fisheries Entry Commission (CFEC) permit holders in
these fisheries are actively participating in the said
fisheries. Due to the low involvement of permit holders, a
majority participation of permit holders is unrealistic. He
said HB 354 would allow for a change in assessment tax to be
initiated by a three-quarter vote from the board of directors
and the vote to accept the change pass with a majority vote of
permit holders participating in the vote.
REPRESENTATIVE ORTIZ further explained why this proposed change
in self-assessment is needed. These permits are nontransferable
and a larger percentage of permit holders were participating [at
the start of] the fishery. Now, 20-30 years later, some of the
folks owning these nontransferable permits have transitioned out
of the fishery and so are not participating in the regular
activities of the fishery, including the voting process.
Therefore, he said, under the current rules it is hard to get
the vote threshold required to do any change in assessments.
1:08:45 PM
REPRESENTATIVE RAUSCHER inquired whether there are other [dive]
fisheries not regulated by AS 43.76.150-210.
1:09:08 PM
LIZ HARPOLD, Staff, Representative Dan Ortiz, Alaska State
Legislature, replied that the Southeast Alaska Regional Dive
Fisheries Association is the only regional dive fisheries
association in the state and it oversees all of the permit
holders within Southeast Alaska. There may be a small sea
cucumber fishery, say in Kodiak, but it would not fall
underneath the jurisdiction of this regional dive association.
MS. HARPOLD, on behalf of Representative Ortiz, continued
introducing HB 354. She explained SARDFA is a private nonprofit
economic development organization representing the harvest
divers, processors, and communities of Southeast Alaska. The
number of permit holders is just shy of 400, she noted. This
was established in 1998 after the legislature fashioned the
framework to create a dive fisheries association. The
association is governed by a board of directors that makes up a
good collection of different people within the industry. The
association works cooperatively with the Alaska Department of
Fish and Game (ADF&G) to develop an annual operating plan, which
determines how the dive assessment, this self-imposed tax being
talked about, will be spent. Without these taxes going into
ADF&G, she continued, ADF&G doesn't have the money to do the
assessments to manage these fisheries. The assessment is
collected by the Department of Revenue (DOR) and then passed
along to ADF&G.
MS. HARPOLD pointed out that anyone who is a dive fishery permit
holder in Southeast Alaska belongs to SARDFA. She elaborated on
the difficulties of having permit holders participate,
explaining that the permit holders are the only ones who can be
fishing. The permit holder must physically get into the water
and harvest the sea cucumbers or geoducks with their own hands.
Permit holders cannot be standing on the boat letting someone
else do the diving for them, she said. As people get older or
less interested in diving they cannot pass on their
nontransferable permits. She noted that there are transferable
permits within this industry that are being actively fished.
She reiterated that HB 354 only affects SARDFA and it is SARDFA
that is encouraging the sponsor to move forward with the bill.
1:12:03 PM
REPRESENTATIVE RAUSCHER asked whether a permit is owned by a
family or by an individual. For example, he asked whether a son
could use the permit to vote or harvest the products.
MS. HARPOLD answered it is only the individual who is the permit
holder. In the case of a nontransferable permit, the individual
is unable to pass it along to a family member or to sell it.
1:12:50 PM
REPRESENTATIVE JOHNSON inquired whether there is any opposition
to HB 354.
REPRESENTATIVE ORTIZ replied he has received no complaints or
concerns about the bill. He added that it seems unlikely there
would be concern given it deals only with an internal issue
within SARDFA itself. The issue, he said, is that as these
nontransferable permit holders have aged out of the fishery they
are participating less in the fishery and the votes.
1:13:59 PM
REPRESENTATIVE PARISH asked about the number of people on the
SARDFA board of directors and how they are selected.
REPRESENTATIVE ORTIZ deferred to Mr. Phil Doherty for an answer.
1:14:25 PM
REPRESENTATIVE BIRCH inquired whether dive fishing is permitted
for crab and scallops and whether HB 354 addresses these.
MS. HARPOLD responded that the Southeast Alaska Regional Dive
Fisheries Association represents permit holders for sea
cucumber, geoduck, and urchin divers only.
1:15:14 PM
CO-CHAIR TARR opened invited testimony.
1:15:43 PM
PHIL DOHERTY, Co-Executive Director, Southeast Alaska Regional
Dive Fisheries Association (SARDFA), testified in support of HB
354. He noted he has been the co-executive director of SARDFA
for the past 11 years. He thanked Representative Ortiz and Ms.
Harpold for their time on HB 354 and stated the bill was under
SARDFA's request.
MR. DOHERTY said SARDFA has a nine-member board that represents
several regions within Southeast Alaska the Ketchikan area,
the Petersburg-Wrangell area, the Prince of Wales area, the
Sitka area, Southeast Alaska at-large, and Washington state at-
large since a number of members are from out of state. Also on
the board are a processor and a representative for Southeast
Alaska municipalities, who are voted in via a majority vote of
the permit holders. The board is active and meets six or seven
times a year, he continued. Underneath the board are committees
that help the board in directing the association's fisheries as
well as the association's direction. The fisheries are sea
urchin, geoduck clam, and sea cucumber, with the geoduck clam
and sea cucumber committees being the most active. About 20
divers on the committees, he continued, so there is good
representation throughout the suite of dive fisheries and the
number of divers involved in the committees.
MR. DOHERTY pointed out that SARDFA proposed this change in its
regulatory laws. It was voted on at the committee levels and
involved the geoduck and sea cucumber committees, he said. The
committee votes as well as the board votes were 100 percent in
favor of working with Representative Ortiz to get this change
passed. There is no opposition within the association's
committees or divers who are not on the committees, he noted.
MR. DOHERTY explained SARDFA is seeking to make it easier to
vote on the assessment imposed upon its members. The current
assessment is 7 percent on geoduck clams, 5 percent on sea
cucumbers, and 5 percent on red sea urchins. This is an
internal tax, he said, but it is collected by the state. This
tax is above and beyond the 3 percent fisheries assessment tax
that is imposed upon on all the fisheries in Alaska. [These
self-imposed assessments], he continued, are based on the ex-
vessel value of the product as it comes off the fishing boats
and over the dock and are collected just like the state
fisheries taxes on the fish ticket. The money goes to the
Department of Revenue (DOR) and at the end of the fiscal year
DOR sends that money back to SARDFA. The assessment tax is
usually around $250,000-$300,000 a year per fishery. He
explained the association has an annual operating plan with
ADF&G that identifies what needs to get done for the future year
for assessment work, for management work, and for research work,
and then the association gives the assessment money to ADF&G for
both fisheries.
1:20:30 PM
MR. DOHERTY further noted that SARDFA pays $150,000-$200,000 a
year to the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) to do
testing for paralytic shellfish poisoning, water quality, and
arsenic for the geoduck clams. The geoduck assessment money for
the department is about $80,000 a year, he said, and SARDFA
gives the department about $80,000-$90,000 a year out of its sea
cucumber funds. The association is also involved in a sea
cucumber enhancement project with the Alutiiq Pride Shellfish
Hatchery, he continued, which is where some of the other monies
go. Lastly, some of the monies come back to the association to
pay for the association's costs.
MR. DOHERTY related that the association tried to lower its sea
cucumber fishery assessment from 5 percent to 3 percent a couple
years ago because of having quite a bit of money in that fund.
A vote of 50 percent plus one was needed to pass that change,
but the association was unable to get enough votes to lower the
tax and put more money into the fishermen's pockets. A number
of permits are not active these days, he explained, but they are
renewed each year and so are in the CFEC database. There are
about 326 permits in the sea cucumber fishery so, by regulation,
a vote of a little over 150 was needed. This bill, he stressed,
would drastically change that and make it much easier for the
tax structure within the association to be changed.
MR. DOHERTY pointed out that the proposed change in the
regulation would not affect anyone else in Alaska because there
are no other dive associations in the state. He said the
association would always meet its financial obligations to the
State of Alaska, ADF&G, and DEC because if it doesn't pay, its
divers don't fish. He added that SARDFA has enough money built
up in its sea cucumber fund that it can lower its tax assessment
there, but not in the geoduck fishery. He reiterated SARDFA
support for HB 354 and said it shouldn't cost the state a penny.
1:23:24 PM
REPRESENTATIVE LINCOLN offered his understanding that currently
there are 326 outstanding permits.
MR. DOHERTY replied there are over 400 within the association.
He explained that as soon as someone buys a CFEC card he or she
technically becomes a part of SARDFA. There are 110 geoduck
permits, he continued, and currently about 70 geoduck divers
actually fish. Of the 326 sea cucumber permits, about 180 of
them are actively fished.
REPRESENTATIVE LINCOLN asked what the cost is to renew. He
further asked whether people are sitting on them and not using
the permits or coming in and out in different years.
MR. DOHERTY responded that the cost through CFEC to renew a sea
cucumber permit is $75. The cost to renew a geoduck clam permit
is [$225]. A sea cucumber permit today sells for about $32,000
and a geoduck clam permit sells for around $60,000-$65,000,
depending on the year. When these fisheries first started, he
explained, a lot of people got in the water because they knew it
was going to go limited entry. One problem with the limited
entry fishery is that at the beginning a lot of people tried to
get a permit and if they didn't get enough points within the
CFEC structure they got a nontransferable permit. This is not
an easy fishery to stay in, he continued. The permit holder is
the diver and as they get older some of these guys don't want to
get in the water anymore. However, they do maintain their
permit, which has made it difficult for the association to reach
the majority vote, especially for the assessment tax, and that
is why SARDFA is trying to lower the standard a little bit.
1:25:57 PM
REPRESENTATIVE RAUSCHER inquired why people hang on to these
permits if they aren't going to utilize them anymore.
MR. DOHERTY replied that the answer to the question would be on
an individual fisherman's basis. He said if someone had a
nontransferable permit and wasn't going to fish again and it
cannot be sold, there would seem to be little reason behind
holding on to the permit. But, he noted, who knows what will
happen. A medical transfer can be done on a nontransferable
permit and there are permits that are used each year on a
medical transfer. So, he posited, perhaps some of the permit
holders feel that if they get the opportunity to give their
permit to someone in a medical transfer, maybe they feel that
somewhere down the road these nontransferable permits may be
worth something.
REPRESENTATIVE RAUSCHER asked whether there is a cost to
transfer a nontransferable permit for a medical reason.
MR. DOHERTY answered he is pretty familiar with CFEC regulations
and he doesn't believe there is a cost to medically transfer a
permit on an emergency basis. He offered his belief that the
paperwork is done with the state. He said he knows that in
Ketchikan a person can go to the local ADF&G office and fill out
the emergency transfer paperwork, get it to the CFEC, and if it
is approved the permit is transferred for at least that season.
1:28:01 PM
REPRESENTATIVE RAUSCHER inquired whether there is anything in
the bill that speaks to nontransferable permits that aren't
being used. He further inquired whether there is anything in
the bill that would end the nontransferable program.
REPRESENTATIVE ORTIZ replied no.
MR. DOHERTY responded no, there is nothing in this regulation -
unfortunately from his point of view - that addresses the
nontransferable permits. He said it 100 percent addresses the
standards in which the association can conduct an election to
change its assessment taxes.
REPRESENTATIVE RAUSCHER surmised the aforementioned is basically
a quorum.
MR. DOHERTY answered it is not a quorum but 50 percent plus one
of the permit holders; it is not a quorum of the board or a
quorum of the committees. The association would like to lower
the bar a little bit, he continued. The association wants to
get good participation in an assessment tax change and so
doesn't want to make it very, very easy to do. That is why the
association said it needs at least 75 percent of the board to
approve a changing of the assessment and also at least 25
percent of the permit holders.
1:29:36 PM
CO-CHAIR TARR asked whether it is going to become an issue at
some point in terms of managing the fishery if people hang on to
these permits and don't use them. She further asked whether it
is limiting people who would like to get into these fisheries.
MR. DOHERTY replied it used to be if a permit holder didn't pay
for his/her permit for, he believed, every 2 or 5 years, then
that permit would be retired, but the permit holder could go
back and renew. The association has worked with CFEC to get
some latent permits retired out of this fishery, he said, and
was pretty successful. When these fisheries first became
limited entry fisheries in the 1990's there were well over 450
permits, now it is down to about 350. He said SARDFA is also
actively seeking an internal buyback program, especially in the
sea cucumber fishery. The association has some money in its
fund, he continued, and would like to see the number of permits
reduced in the fisheries and is looking at different ways. One
way is a private CFEC buyback program and SARDFA is trying to
work out the details with CFEC. However, HB 354 would not
affect the number of permits in the fisheries.
CO-CHAIR TARR inquired whether the number was set too high when
the fishery was created and so that is why an imbalance is now
being seen between the number of permits and the number of
people actually using them.
MR. DOHERTY offered his opinion that limited entry has done very
well for the state of Alaska. But, he continued, when people
knew that [unlimited] fisheries were going to be limited, they
made an effort to get out and harvest something so they could at
least get a nontransferable permit, and he believes that this
happened in the dive fisheries. He offered his opinion that
most divers would agree that when it did go limited entry there
were too many permits in the fisheries to begin with.
1:32:30 PM
REPRESENTATIVE PARISH offered his understanding that when a fish
ticket is issued a dive fisherman pays the 3 percent tax, plus
the fisherman pays the 5 or 7 percent tax depending on the
fishery, which results in $250,000-$300,000 a year. He asked
whether he is correct on the annual monetary figure.
MR. DOHERTY responded correct, but noted it changes year to year
because the guideline harvest level changes year to year as
ADF&G does its assessments and sets the quota. Also, the ex-
vessel value changes each year based on market. The $250,000-
$300,000 is about what the association gets from each of the two
fisheries. He demonstrated the importance of these late fall
and winter fisheries by pointing out that the geoduck and sea
cucumber fisheries combined generate between $10 million and $12
million in ex-vessel value in Southeast Alaska. Except for the
Dungeness crab fishery in some years, he continued, these are
probably the two most important wintertime fisheries in
Southeast Alaska.
1:34:13 PM
REPRESENTATIVE PARISH recalled Mr. Doherty stating that SARDFA
pays for paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) and arsenic testing
for geoducks, as well as the cost of operating the association.
He inquired as to the overall cost.
MR. DOHERTY requested clarification of the question.
REPRESENTATIVE PARISH said his question is whether there is a
level to which the association could cut its taxes that would
interfere with its ability to adequately fund the operation of
the board and important testing like PSP and arsenic.
MR. DOHERTY answered that the association's board members do not
receive any compensation for being on the board. Money coming
into the association pays the cost of administration, he said,
such as staff salaries and travel, building rent, phone, web,
and so forth, which is usually about $200,000 a year. Most of
the association's expenses are for the geoduck clam fishery,
which costs between $150,000 and $200,000 for PSP, arsenic, and
water quality testing. Plus, he continued, the association pays
the department about $80,000 a year to conduct the sea cucumber
fisheries. If the association did not have enough assessment
money to pay DEC or ADF&G then there would not be any fisheries
or there would be reduced fisheries the following year.
1:36:23 PM
REPRESENTATIVE PARISH asked whether his understanding is correct
in that if there were not adequate money to remit to ADF&G, then
the following year the fishery would be limited by ADF&G.
MR. DOHERTY replied correct. He related that when these dive
fisheries first started in the early 1990's people were mostly
from the Lower 48 because these fisheries already existed in
Washington state and California. They knew there was a resource
in Alaska so they started diving here and were getting permits
through the department and CFEC, but there were no regulations
or assessments of the populations in place. As the harvest grew
over the years the department became nervous that maybe the
fisheries were getting out in front of the resource, so the
department put the brakes on the fisheries. The department told
the divers and processors that it didn't have the money to look
at big fisheries like this because it takes a boat and many
divers. The department told the divers to figure out how to pay
for these fisheries and that is what the divers did they went
to Juneau and got this [statute] in place and assessed
themselves a tax and that tax has turned into fisheries now
worth $10 million to $12 million a year.
1:38:53 PM
CO-CHAIR TARR opened public testimony on HB 354.
1:38:59 PM
JERRY MCCUNE, President, United Fishermen of Alaska (UFA),
testified in support of HB 354. He noted SARDFA is a member of
UFA and said the association has built a good record of funds
that cover everything. Making the proposed change would be a
good change, he said. The association could lower its
assessment and the fishers and processors in the state could
make a bit more money in the process.
1:40:36 PM
REPRESENTATIVE LINCOLN remarked that HB 354 seems to be a decent
solution to the problem. He inquired whether this solution is
preferable to addressing the root cause of the issue, which is
that there are lots of permits that aren't being used.
MR. MCCUNE responded that getting into CFEC laws is totally
different than what HB 354 is addressing. He said the bill
would address the current permit holders that are taking part in
the fishery and would help the association. Regarding latent
permits, he noted that Alaska has a few fisheries with latent
permits and those people are like in this dive fishery case -
some divers are now too old to participate because diving is
dangerous. Latent permits is a whole different issue than
working with CFEC laws, he reiterated.
MR. MCCUNE, regarding CFEC laws, pointed out that a threshold of
permits needs to remain in a fishery to make it limited entry.
Too low a number could be too exclusive, he explained. Limited
entry must have enough permits in a fishery to turn over every
year so there can be new entry. But, he continued, when some
fisheries were created there was more available resource than
there is today. An optimum numbers study can always be done to
see what a fishery is producing and how many participants should
be in it, he advised. This gives the state a good number so
that if someone challenges whether there are enough permits in
the fishery like was done in the Sitka herring fishery - the
court can say that an optimum numbers study was done.
1:42:46 PM
REPRESENTATIVE LINCOLN asked whether there is ever a case where
an active permit user benefits from having latent permit holders
who don't use them, because it inflates the numbers so that the
fishing remains limited and the people who are using their
permits benefit from a restrained competition.
MR. MCCUNE answered that having lots of latent permits is either
due to the price or to not having enough of that particular
fishery species, in which case the remaining people actually
fishing do benefit a lot. He noted Bristol Bay is a fully
utilized fishery and also noted that there are no latent permits
in the Copper River fishery in which he fishes because it is a
very lucrative fishery so everyone is fishing his or her permit.
But, he continued, in many of the little fisheries like the dive
fisheries, there are people who go do other things or it doesn't
look good for diving so they put it off for a year. In any
particular fishery, he explained, a permit holder who is not
fishing must renew that permit every two years or the permit
goes away. A permit holder can get one year off because he or
she isn't taking part in the fishery. The latent permits, he
reiterated, help the remaining fishermen in the fishery make a
little bit more money.
1:45:34 PM
CO-CHAIR TARR closed public testimony after ascertaining no one
else withed to testify.
CO-CHAIR TARR held over HB 354.
