SALMON IS BIG BUSINESS
i tie value of the salmon
pack for 1960 was $83,000,000
compared to $56,000,000 during
1959, The current year prom
ises an even greater pack,”
HEA Explains Plans
In order to avoid confusion
on the building of future line
extensions, the following guide
lines will be used:
1. There must be at least
three consumers, to the mile of
line.
2. There must be a house on
each of three properties in or
der to comply with this mini
mum.
3. If there are three houses
within any one mile of line,
and the line passes another
property that is occupied by a
trailer or other buildings, serv
ice may be obtained but will
be considered on a separate
basis.
4. There should be a patent
on each piece of property to be
served. Lack of a patent would
require service on a separate
basis.
5. Special minimums will be
considered but will be based on
the amount of KWH consump
tion that w'ould seem reasonable
for the consumer in question.
If anyone has any questions
concerning new service, please
feel free to contact us.
Very truly yours.

Alaska's Gov. Wiliam A. Egan
said July 19-20 at bond sale
informational meetings in New
York and Chicago.
‘ Recent catch statistics re
leased by our Department of
Fish and Game indicate the
rich Bristol Bay salmon run
may reach 1,000,000 cases for
the first time since 1948. Even
more optimistic estimates indi
cate that this year's salmon
pack will exceed the bountiful
year of 1948. Southeastern
Alaska is also experiencing an
improved fishing season which
further indicates that our rich
fishing industry is being
strengthened by local control
and management.”
On January 1, 19C0, Alaska
was handed the management
responsibilities of what was
once a rich and prolific salmon
fishery. Alaska took over at a
time when production had
dropped to its lowest level in
60 years.
"During its first season of
management the State Depart
ment of Fish and Game won
praise from industry and indi
vidual fishermen alike for a
sound program and the elimina
tion of distant control,” Gov
ernor Egan added. “Decisions
are now made on the fishing
grounds without reference
either to Juneau or to Washing
ton, D. C. I firmly believe that
state management of its fish
eries was one of the contribut
ing factors for the increased
salmon pack during 1960 which
exceeded that of the prior year
by almost 50 per cent.

Possible Fire Ins. Reduction
Fire insurance rate reduction
has been promised the City of
Kenai by the Pacific Fire Rat
ing Bureau, provided certain
recommendations have been
carried out.
Thomas A. Lloyd, assistant
division engineer for tiic bu
reau, recently inspected the
Kenai V dunteer f ire Depart
ment equipment and suggested
the addition of needed equip
ment to place in effect the de
sired rate reduction. Lloyd,
meeting with ..lay- r John
Swanson and other members of
the City Council at a luncheon
suggested the addition of equip
ment needed to place in effect
the desired rate reduction.
It was pointed out that the
Kenai Volunteer Fire Depart
ment is now being included a
part of the city budget and that
it has S4.000 for the fiscal year
for use for department improve
ment.
Lloyd requested the City to
send him information concern
ing the proposed city water sys
tem. Once the city water sys
tem is installed, bid target date
being the spring of 1962, the
city can expect as much as a
40 Jr reduction in fire insurance
rates, Lloyd said.
