Kodiak
is once again amongst the top fishing ports in the nation, both in terms of
tons of fish landed and the value of the catch.
The
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration released its annual list of the
top fishing ports today (Thursday). For 2007, Kodiak ranked fourth in the
nation for landings with about 320 million pounds of fish crossing the docks.
That’s the same position the city was in on the 2006 list, even though about
13-million less pounds of fish was landed last year compared to the year
before.

With a
launch expected from Narrow Cape as early as Saturday, the U.S. Coast Guard has
laid out the coordinates for a maritime safety zone around the launch complex
and in the splashdown areas to the south.
The safety
zone will go into effect on Friday, and last through Monday, between the hours
of 10 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. each day, or until cancelled.
The
hazardous impact areas are the points where the booster rockets are expected to
splashdown. The nearest is about 90 miles southeast of Kodiak Island, with two
others 100 miles southwest of Dehlinger Seamount and 75 miles west of Erben
Tablemount. Mariners are strongly urged to avoid the areas.
There are
criminal and civil penalties for violating the safety zones, with fines of up
to 32-thousand dollars.
