Info

quantitative estimate would require extensive data about Sitka’s harbor facilities as well as facilities elsewhere in Southeast Alaska and beyond. Permanent moorage holders who live in Sitka, and those who fish commercially out of Sitka, are the most motivated to keep their vessels in Sitka. Residents of other Southeast communities with other reasons for being in Sitka are likely not as strongly committed to keeping their vessels there in the face of increasing rates. Of the permanent moorage holders, those who live outside Alaska and who do not fish in the vicinity of Sitka are the least likely to stay in Sitka’s harbors if the rates increase. Additional data are needed to have a better sense of why permanent moorage holders have kept their vessels in Sitka. It may be helpful to survey harbor users to present the situation and ask users what they would prefer be done. On the transient side, these vessels are least likely to stay in Sitka in the event of large rate changes, relative to other locations. This is a critical issue, since 20 percent of moorage revenues come from transient users. That said, the effect of higher rates on transient use is harder to define as vessel owners may change their usage patterns rather than relocate to another facility. For example, transient users may still use Sitka’s harbors but reduce their time there. It is difficult to assess what these changes in behavior might be. While a comprehensive analysis is not feasible given the multitude of decision variables, we have included a rate comparison that looks at Sitka’s current rates, the proposed rates, and the rates for selected other Southeast Alaska communities: Juneau, Wrangell, Petersburg, and Ketchikan. Table 17, on the next page, shows a rate comparison for permanent annual and transient daily moorage at each community. As shown in the table, with the proposed increase, Sitka’s rates would be among the highest of those shown. However, a phased implementation plan may help to keep rates more in line with the region since presumably other harbors would need to make inflation adjustments over that time as well.
