Emergencv Moratorium on the FilinA' and Processing of Shoreline Substantial Development Permits for the Growth and CUlture of Fish in the Marine Waters of Jefferson County: In June of 1988, David Goldsmith reported, the Board passed a moratorium on the acceptance of applications for new fish farms in an effort to buy some time to allow the Planning and Building Department to research the issue and develop base information to begin working on developing policy to update the Shoreline Management Master Program. On June 10, 1988 this moratorium was extended to December 10, 1988 when it will expire again. David Goldsmith further reported that the policy has not been drafted to date to allow updating of the Shoreline Management Master Program. Over the past year a study was completed to provide a synopsis of the information available on this matter. The Shoreline Commission will review this report at the meeting this month and then they will figure out a strategy to begin updating the shoreline program. There are three requests to make applications for fish pen facilities waiting until this moratorium is lifted by the County. It is David Goldsmith's recommendation that the moratorium be extended for a period of no longer than six months. Roger Katz, President and Owner, Blue Water Farms: Mr. Katz stated that he feels that the County has under-utilized his company's willingness to serve as a model fish pen farm which could be examined from a variety of perspec- tives. This farm has been operational for almost two years and he reported that people from the puget Sound Water Quality Authority have taken sediment samples from directly under the fish pens and they found no leaching of toxic substances that is any different from the twelve sites that they monitor in Port Townsend Bay. Mr. Katz added that he does not know of any other active net pen operations in Jefferson County right now. His company employs 20 people, with about another 15 to 20 employed at the processing facility which is about to go into full operation. This business has spent about $2 million dollars in this community to date. : VOL 1" ....~ r. 0.- [';.u: OC'~ r - 4110 ... ,:,'; :4 Commissioners' Meeting Minutes: Week of December 6, 1988 Page: 4. The fish pen industry would like an opportunity to exist and be a going concern. Unless there is a limit given to the term of this moratorium, the County will put his company out of business arid may be permanently shutting fish pens operations out of this County. The moratorium does not effect his business as it exists currently, but Port Townsend Bay experiences a toxic algae in the spring and summer that severely impact fish pen operations. There is a way to work around this toxicity problem which is to introduce fish into the water of Port Townsend Bay at the end of the algae period (October) and grow them through the beginning of May and then move them to a deep water, off shore, secondary site within the confines of Jefferson County. Mr. Katz concluded by stating that he would not be ready to pursue a secondary site in the County until 1989, but he needs to know that the application can be made and urged the Board to put a limit on the extension of this moratorium. After discussion of how long the Shoreline Commission will need to develop the necessary policy, Commissioner Dennison mo~ed to extend the moratorium for an additional six months (until June 10, 1989) or until the Board adopts the policy, whichever comes first. Commissioner George Brown seconded the motion. The motion carried by a unanimous vote. COOPERATIVE EXTEflSION AGREEMENT.
