Domsea Farms, Inc., Tom McVane re: Army Corps Notice 071-0YB- 1-004408R and Threshold Determination, Shoreline Management Application *14-77. Planner Tom Aumock reported that the Corps Notice has been revised due to a change in the location of Domsea fish pens off Crane Point. Tom McVane of Domsea Farms appeared and reported on the responses from the Navy and the Tugboat Association. The Navy has officially responded that the present location is no problem. The Northwest Tugboat Association in a letter of February 22, 1978 has agreed with Domsea to utilize a tail- boat service to control the end of any log tow passing north until it has cleared Crane Point. This will allow a log tow to be pulled sufficiently to the west to clear the fish pen installation. Therefore, the Northwest Tugboat Association has withdrawn its objection to Domsea Farms. Commissioner Brown pointed out that many persons in the area are opposed to the placement of the fish pens, although the greatest opposition was probably to the Hadlock site instead of Crane Point as the petition cir- culated was over the Hadlock site. McVane reported he has met with many residents and showed them the present site at Manchester. Later in the day the Board viewed the Planning Department's slides of the fish pen sites at Manchester and Fort Ward and photographs of the proposed site at Crane Point. Planner Tom Aumock explained the status of the Threshold Determination and reported that all the appropriate agency comments have been received for a final threshold agreement.
