10:50:33 AM
CO-CHAIR MCGUIRE announced a presentation by the Arctic
Waterways Safety Committee (AWSC). She described the presenters'
previous efforts on Artic issues.
10:51:27 AM
PAUL FUHS, Chair, Alaska Marine Exchange Board of Directors,
Lobbyist, North Slope Borough, presented information on the
Arctic Waterways Safety Committee. He introduced himself.
WILLIE GOODWIN, Member, Arctic Waterways Safety Committee (AWSC)
and former-Chair, Alaska Beluga Whale Committee, presented
information on the Alaska Waterways Safety Committee. He
introduced himself.
MR. FUHS introduced the members of AWSC who were in the
audience. Among them were Charlie Brower, Eskimo Walrus
Commission, Barrow; Vera Metcalf, Eskimo Walrus Commission,
Koyuk; George Noongwook, Alaska Eskimo Whaling Commission,
Savoonga; John Goodwin, Alaska Ice Seal Committee, Kotzebue,
Jack O'Neill, Executive Director, Alaska Nanuuq Commission,
Wendi Schaeffer, Public Services Director, Northwest Arctic
Borough; Arnold Brower, Jr., Alaska Eskimo Whaling Commission,
Barrow; Jenny Evans, staff support, AWSC Barrow, Alaska.
CO-CHAIR MCGUIRE welcomed the members of AWSC.
10:54:25 AM
MR. FUHS noted AWSC works together with the Department of
Environmental Conservation and the Coast Guard. He said various
water safety committees exist throughout the U.S. for local
people to set rules for safe operations in their areas. They are
officially recognized by the Coast Guard and are a collaborative
effort between municipalities, industry, maritime operators,
government regulatory bodies, and non-governmental organizations
to promote safe maritime operations. He said Arctic policies
refer to safe vessel operations and AWSC is a means to get
there.
10:56:02 AM
MR. GOODWIN described his role helping to create the Arctic
Water Safety Committee. He shared AWSC's vision as follows:
As we all know, the changes we are seeing in the sea
ice of the Western Arctic Ocean is opening the waters
of the Bering, Chukchi, and Beaufort Seas to new uses.
Those of us who live in the coastal areas of the
Arctic see the changes in our ice and weather patterns
on a daily basis. And, we see the signs of coming
commercial uses in the form of increasing numbers of
large, foreign-flagged vessels moving through our
waters and passing through the Bering Strait.
In 2012 at the suggestion of the U.S. Coast Guard, the
five tribally and federally recognized marine mammal
co-management groups - the Eskimo Walrus Commission,
the Ice Seal Committee, the Nanuuq Commission, the
Alaska Eskimo Whaling Commission, and the Alaska
Beluga Whale Committee - came together to see what we
could learn about this new activity that we have been
observing. We were joined in this effort by the North
Slope Borough, the Northwest Arctic Borough, Kawerak,
and the Inuit Circumpolar Council. What we learned, as
I am sure you know, is that our waters are being
looked at as a new shipping route between Europe and
Asia. The Arctic is also becoming a marine tourist
destination. We also learned that there are other
foreign interests coming into our waters to conduct
scientific research and to explore to find what
resources are there.
Like any new activity, this increase in vessel traffic
might bring essential economic opportunities to our
state and to our communities. But the size of these
ocean-going vessels, the speed at which they travel,
and the projected increase in their numbers can also
be destructive to the activities that already exist in
our waters. Because of this, we need to find ways to
manage these new uses, so that economic development
can happen in safe and healthy concert with the other
existing uses of the waterways.
Among our five marine mammal co-management
organizations, we represent all of the coastal marine
mammal subsistence hunters of Arctic Alaska, from the
Bering Straits Region, north to the Canadian border.
Along with our hunter organizations, our two boroughs
and the communities take each year, and share through
our subsistence sharing networks, form a critical part
of the food and economic security of the north.
With the changes occurring in our sea ice, we are
seeing more fall, open-water hunting. Having our
hunters, in their small boats, on the water at the
same time as the peak season for large ocean-going
vessels creates a great risk to both human life and to
disturbance of the subsistence food gathering, unless
we have a well-designed system for traffic management.
At the same time, the offshore oil and gas operators
working in Alaska have very significant assets on the
water and are planning to add more assets in the
Chukchi Sea. It is in their interest and the interests
of our state that commercial and other foreign traffic
moving through the lease sale areas be routed so that
they do not interfere with development activities or
endanger assets or human life.
In 2012, our marine mammal co-management groups,
working together as the Arctic Marine Mammal
Coalition, began meeting with the Coast Guard, NOAA,
and the Alaska Marine Exchange to explore what steps
can be taken to begin developing a traffic management
regime for the Arctic. Initial successes include the
inclusion of notifications on the Coast Pilot and
Maritime Charts about marine mammal aggregations and
presence of subsistence hunters. Such information
exchange is a critical component of ensuring the
health and safety of our hunters and resources.
We have provided input to the Coast Guard on its Port
Access Route Study, which will be submitted to the
International Maritime Organization. We also have been
working with the Coast Guard and NOAA to get
bathymetric surveys started in the Bering Straits
Region east of St. Lawrence Island. Sea floor mapping
in this area will make it available to deep draft
vessels. For vessels on a south-southeast course, this
new route will be shorter than the route to the west
of St. Lawrence. This also should help to reduce
traffic in our marine mammal hunting areas to the west
of the island. It is a win-win initiative for both
industry, who can enjoy shorter transit routes, and
subsistence hunters, who will experience less vessel
traffic in their hunting areas.
Working as a coalition, we also have been interacting
regularly with the Alaska Marine Exchange to learn how
it might help to facilitate the expansion of the AIS
network along the Arctic Coast.
Finally, in 2014, at request of the Coast Guard, we
met with other marine stakeholders, including
representative of oil and gas, the Alaska Marine
Pilots, the City of Nome, our two boroughs, and
Kawerak. We also invited the state, representatives of
the tug and barge operators working in Alaska, and
representative of the tourism industry to join us.
Our purpose in coming together was to plan for a
Harbor Safety Committee. We chose the name "Arctic
Waterways Safety Committee" since there are no harbors
in the Arctic, but our goals are the same: to
establish best lawful practices to ensure a safe,
predictable, and efficient operating environment for
all users of the Arctic waterways.
We incorporated the Arctic Waterways Safety Committee
on October 30, 2014, under the laws of the State of
Alaska, and have submitted an application for 501 c(3)
status.
This afternoon we will hold the committee's initial
meeting, where we will adopt bylaws and elect
officers. I have attached to my testimony a schematic
showing the makeup of the committee: the five marine
mammal co-management organizations representing the
hunters on the water in small vessels, the offshore
oil and gas industry representing those with
exploration and development operations and the vessels
supporting them, the Alaska Marine Pilots Association
representing those who are responsible for piloting
vessels through U.S. Arctic waters, tug, barge, and
cargo operators responsible for destinational traffic
in the north, mining interests - as the Red Dog Mine
is an important waterway user, commercial fishing
interests, the City of Nome, the Northwest Arctic
Borough, the North Slope Borough, regional tribal
organizations, and the marine tourism industry.
11:03:46 AM
We are inviting ex-officio observers from the
University of Alaska, the Alaska Marine Exchange, the
Inuit Circumpolar Council, Marine Salvage, the
scientific research community, and the U.S. Coast
Guard. We would be honored if the state of Alaska were
to join us as an ex-officio member of the Arctic
Waterways Safety Committee. Not all of the committee's
seats are filled at this time, but we are working very
hard on our outreach to make sure that all
stakeholders with an existing interest in Arctic
marine waters are represents.
As Alaskans and residents of the Arctic, we have a
long custom of sharing and of making decisions by
consensus. This is how Alaskans have always survived.
When the world around us changes, we incorporate those
changes into our lives and find ways to learn from
them and to gain benefit so that our lives are made
better.
When offshore oil and gas first came to our waters in
the late 1970's and early 1980's, we found ways to
work with the oil and gas operators. We taught them
how we use the waters and what we need to have a safe
and successful hunt for the animals. They learned how
to work with us and we learned how to work with them.
One example of our very successful efforts, where
offshore oil and gas and subsistence hunters have
learned how to work together to share the waters, is
the Alaska Eskimo Whaling Commission's Open Water
Season Conflict Avoidance Agreement. We have other
examples like this.
Our goal in forming the Arctic Waterways Safety
Committee is to take this history of sharing, of
collaborating, and of working by consensus, and to
apply it to this new activity that is coming into our
waters. By bringing all of the existing stakeholders
together, we can define what the existing interests
are and identify consensus on how we can best share
our waters with new users.
Starting with these existing uses, and users, we will
develop a system of best practices for the safe
management of vessel traffic in our waterways. As we
are able to identify commercial and other interests
that are new to our waters, we will invite
representatives to sit down with the committee and to
work with us to benefit from the existing experience
of Arctic Waterways users and implement these best
practices in a manner that benefits everyone.
This is an exciting undertaking. And while we have our
work cut out for us, it is work that will serve a
great public purpose, by ensuring that Alaska's waters
remain safe for all users. This will enable us to
maintain the food security of our northern
communities. And it will help to preserve
opportunities for continuing the safe development of
our great state's resources for the benefit of all of
our citizens.
11:06:28 AM
DENISE MICHELS, Mayor of Nome, and Member, Arctic Waterways
Safety Committee, presented information on the Arctic Waterways
Safety Committee. She read from a prepared statement as follows:
I was born and raised in Nome, a long descendent of
Inupiaq people who have relied on the sea and land to
sustain us in one of the harshest climes in the world.
I'm a tribal member of Nome Eskimo. I currently serve
as the Mayor for the City of Nome and the Director of
Transportation for Kawerak, Inc., our regional non-
profit.
I'm honored to be here to share my thoughts and
recommendations today. Many of us in the room were
members of the Alaska Arctic Policy Commission (AAPC)
and are proud of the work for the implementation plan
recommendations which the City of Nome supports. The
AAPC's Implementation Plan ties in with the
foundations of the Arctic Waterways Safety Committee
(AWSC), which is the process of identifying projects
for our work plan for the next two years.
I'll paraphrase the D17 Admiral Abel's description
that AWSC is one leg of the three-legged stool. The
other two legs are the Bering Strait Port Access Route
and the International Maritime Organization's Polar
Code. Pull one of those legs of that stool and it
becomes unbalanced. AWSC allows open participation to
address conflicts to be resolved with all users of the
waterway without and attorneys or 10-year court
battles that cost thousands of dollars. We thank the
U.S. Coast Guard District 17 for their technical
assistance with AWSC.
Globally, nationally, and statewide there are many
forums, conferences, studies, and workshops happening
with regards to the Arctic and many international,
federal, and state agencies are working towards
policies for governance of the Arctic which may impact
our way of life and provide opportunities for economic
development. It is an overwhelming process to keep on
top of all the activities to ensure that we, who live
in the Arctic, are at the table and we are part of the
process in the formulation of any rules and
regulations that govern our way of life. AWSC will be
the forum for all information to be disseminated to
all users of the waterway to identify, assess, plan,
communicate, and implement those operational and
environmental best practices that promote the safe and
efficient use of Arctic waters from St. Lawrence
Island through the Alaskan and Beaufort Seas.
The Bering Strait and the Port of Nome have seen an
increase ten-fold with the number of dockings at 446
in the 2014 shipping season. Many of these vessels
have successfully traversed the Northwest Passage from
sailboats, cruise ships and foreign-flagged ice
breakers. Add that in with destination traffic from
companies that have been operating in our waters
successfully for years, and the Bering Strait will
require a traffic vessel scheme within that 51 miles
to avoid any accidents. Adventure tourism has
increased with kite boarders, jet skiers, swimmers,
kayakers, and winter ice driving expeditions
attempting to cross international borders. There is a
lot of water activity traversing through the Bering
Strait in a short window of time during the open ice
season.
There have been a few near misses. A fuel barge broke
loose from its tug, but the company was able to launch
another tug to get it controlled in rough waters. A
tug traveling south sank off St. Michael.
The Port of Nome has vested interest in AWSC
activities, as we are the only medium draft port north
of Nunivak and have just recently been identified as
the Arctic deep draft port by the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers and Alaska Department of Transportation's
Tentative Selected Plan. The need is immediate for a
deep draft port and a place of refuge.
Climate change impacts ocean temperatures and water
chemistry, and impacts the biodiversity with unknown
plant and animal life in locations where they have
never been seen before. Nome's port commissioners have
provided concerns which the city has submitted to AWSC
in regards to early spring season ice breaking and
what the effects on the biodiversity it will have on
the fish. The Bering Strait's regional fishing fleet
is one of the economic drivers that home ports at the
Port of Nome. Members of AWSC have one thing in common
- sea ice coverage. The Port of Nome has had to
address user conflict in the port with subsistence,
dredging, and commercial users with waterway
management, so we felt it was important to participate
in AWSC due to our strategic location.
The AAPC's Arctic Policy #2 - "Collaborate with all
levels of government, tribes, industry, and NGO's to
achieve transparent and inclusive Arctic decision-
making resulting in more informed, sustainable and
beneficial outcomes including efforts to (c) pursue
opportunities to participate meaningfully as a partner
in the development of federal and international Arctic
policies, thereby incorporating state and local
knowledge and expertise." This body's makeup does
exactly that; tribal and municipalities are at the
table and part of the solutions process.
The AAPC's Arctic Policy #3 - "Enhance security of the
state through a safe and secure Arctic for individuals
and communities include (b) provide safe, secure and
reliable maritime transportation in the areas of the
state adjacent to the Arctic" are issues that AWSC
will address.
Most importantly, the AAPC's Arctic Policy #4 - "Value
and strengthen the resilience of communities and
respect and integrate the culture and knowledge of
Arctic peoples, including efforts to (a) recognize
Arctic indigenous people's culture and unique
relationship to the environment including traditional
reliance on a subsistence way of life for food
security, which provides a spiritual connection to the
land and seas." AWSC had the marine industry and
subsistence users at the table to address substance
security.
AAPC's strategic line of effort #2 - "The state of
Alaska will address the response capacity gap in
Alaska's Arctic support efforts to 2 (c) expand
development of appropriately integrated systems to
monitor and communicate Arctic maritime information,"
and strategic line of effort #3 - "The state of Alaska
will support healthy communities 3(c) support long-
term strategic planning efforts that utilize past
achievements, leverage existing methods and strengthen
local planning that asses and directs economic,
community and infrastructure development, as well as
environmental protection and human safety," will be
addressed by AWSC.
We request support to fund the administration of AWSC
through the cruise ship head tax. Again, I thank you
for allowing the City of Nome to participate.
11:13:24 AM
CO-CHAIR MCGUIRE thanked her for integrating AWSC's strategic
lines of effort into her community.
MR. FUHS noted an important point; Alaska is occupying its space
and does not need outside help or interference. The process is
in place and the AWSC board makeup is broad and inclusive. He
highlighted potential policy areas AWSC is looking at: traffic
routing, sensitive habitats/areas to be avoided, whale migration
timing and areas, conflict avoidance with local vessels,
emergency response capability/SAR, marine pilotage, navigation
aids/tracking and communication systems, and international
cooperation. He mentioned the commitment by Canada to work
together and the Marine Exchange Tracking System in place.
He turned to the publication process: publish policies on AWSC's
website, provide adopted policies to USCG, DEC, Arctic Council,
and Arctic maritime operators and insurance carriers, USCG
publishes policies in Navigation and Vessel Inspection
Circulars, in the Coast Pilot and in Notices to Mariners, and
DEC incorporates the policies in their sub-area response plans.
He noted that the insurance industry is concerned about the lack
of Safe Practices and assured AWSC that they would aid in
getting a certificate of insurance if AWSC develops Best
Practices. He termed AWSC's process a streamlined process.
11:16:21 AM
MR. FUHS described the funding mechanisms, such as the use of
excess cruise ship head tax funds request. He said AWSC would
request $160,000 from the head tax to cover basic administrative
expenses. He concluded that AWSC is looking out for Alaska's
future and is a strong implementation piece of Artic policy.
11:17:50 AM
CO-CHAIR MCGUIRE thanked the presenters. She commented on the
Pacific Northwest Economic Region Meeting, noting that there is
great interest by Canada in collaborating on shared issues. She
said Alaskans take care of themselves by collaborating with many
groups and using technology, to solve a problem. She asked
whether AWSC should contact Canada about creating a similar
commission that would work across borders.
MR. FUHS replied that they did meet with Canada. He pointed out
that the maritime industry likes consistent standards. There is
a lot of opportunity for working with Canada. He provide two
examples of vessels that had issues. He stressed that
international cooperation is vital.
11:20:48 AM
CO-CHAIR MCGUIRE mentioned the lack of emergency response
capability in the Arctic and asked for AWSC's limits of
authority when requiring vessels to have an emergency
preparedness and response spill plan in place. She asked if Mr.
Fuhs envisioned that to be within AWSC's power.
MR. FUHS said yes. He noted that all available resources must be
used. He used the adrift Shell tug as an example. He stressed
that vessels must have a safety plan in place. He said DEC is
working with AWSC on a compliance plan. He stressed the
importance of prevention first.
11:22:54 AM
SENATOR OLSON asked if ASWC has any interaction with the Bering
Sea Alliance.
MR. GOODWIN said there would be opportunities for sub-committee
groups to work on various issues with different user groups.
MR. FUHS said ASWC has had discussions with the group regarding
training local people to work on the response plan.
SENATOR OLSON asked how to encourage responsible development
without inhibiting Shell's activity.
MR. FUHS explained that Shell is a founding member of AWSC and
they want to have safety standards in place. They want to
protect their reputation and want to work together in a
collaborative effort.
11:26:07 AM
SENATOR BISHOP pointed out one word from the presentations that
resonates; sharing. He said it is a powerful concept for the
people and adds value.
MR. GOODWIN said the Native people have survived by sharing and
will continue to share knowledge to ensure their own safety. He
provided an example of how AWSC worked with Shell.
CO-CHAIR MCGUIRE related Senator Murkowski's intent to continue
federal hearings and educating her colleague about Alaska's
efforts in the Arctic and the importance of working with local
and indigenous people and sharing information.
11:28:52 AM
SENATOR COGHILL opined that AWSC is a labor of love. He noted
how hard it is for Alaska to work with Russia on a national
level, but not as hard on a local level. He asked for
suggestions on how to deal with Russia.
MR. GOODWIN said they have worked with the Russians on marine
mammal issues. He shared a story about a hunter. He maintained
that the issues are with the government, not the people.
SENATOR COGHILL asked if the state could work with local dumas.
MR. GOODWIN said it would be a first step.
11:31:20 AM
CO-CHAIR MCGUIRE noted regular exchanges in the past with the
dumas. She said the Governor has made a commitment to renew
Alaska's membership in a Northern Forum.
MR. FUHS suggested there could be a bi-lateral agreement with
Russia that does not have to go through the international
maritime organization. He noted that the Coast Guard does have
direct communication links. Response capabilities are unknown,
so Alaska needs to participate in joint drills. Russia has three
new rescue tugs. He concluded that agreements need to be in
place in advance of an event.
SENATOR COGHILL said steaming time across the Chukchi Sea is
wide open. He said it is nice to know that deep water mapping is
occurring.
CO-CHAIR MCGUIRE said Russian diplomacy has been a disaster at
the federal level and suggested trying it at the local level.
SENATOR COGHILL voiced appreciation for AWSC.
MR. GOODWIN requested help with AWSC's budget.
CO-CHAIR MCGUIRE agreed to help with it.
11:36:01 AM
SENATOR OLSON asked about a budget item for $40,000 regarding
subcontracted work for studies and research.
MR. FUHS explained that the funds are for identification of
habitat areas, putting zones on a GIS map, technical work for
publishing the plans, and legal work.
CO-CHAIR MCGUIRE thanked the presenters.
SENATOR OLSON requested testimony from the local perspective of
AWSC members.
11:38:05 AM
GEORGE NOONGWOOK, Alaska Eskimo Whaling Commission and AWSC,
presented information on the Arctic Waterways Safety Committee.
He said the key to his people's survival has been sharing, and
cooperation and that method of communication is also used in the
AWSC network. He said he appreciates the efforts of the
committee and the commission.
SENATOR OLSON said St. Lawrence Island was the site of many
ships and boats that have sunk and warrants attention.
MR. NOONGWOOK noted that the corridor of the Bering Sea and the
Beaufort Sea also warrants careful undertaking due to marine
life.
11:40:59 AM
ARNOLD BROWER, JR., Executive Director, Alaska Eskimo Whaling
Commission and AWSC, presented information on the Arctic
Waterways Safety Committee. He reminded the committee of an
event in 1988 - the rescue of three gray whales with the help of
the Whaling Commission and the Russians. As a result, there are
bi-lateral scientific studies with Russia on oceans and bowhead
whales. Last month they signed an agreement with Russia on
sharing whale quotas and continuing scientific studies. He said
those are the types of things that are happening from a local
perspective. They also have relationships with Finland, Norway,
Iceland, and Japan in the international whaling commission. They
are also working together on a whale population census and a
renewable resource plan. He stressed the importance of
irrefutable science data, such as determining the age of bowhead
whales through carbon dating, which showed one whale that lived
during the time of Hiroshima.
SENATOR COGHILL pointed out that the native people already do
what the rest of the U.S. should do, recognized that Alaska is
an international state. Alaska has unique international
relationships and is more connected than most states.
11:45:57 AM
There being nothing further to come before the committee,
Chair McGuire adjourned the Senate Special Committee on the
Arctic at 11:45 a.m.
