Fisheries committee  I don't know. We have a parking lot. It's paid parking at our place. There's the boat launch. There's extra revenue there. We have loading and offloading areas that generate revenue. That's about it, I think. We have a black water pump-out. There's a nominal fee of $20 to get y

Fisheries committee  I'll be brief. It's fairly redundant to go through what everybody has seen this morning. I just want to state, though, that as far as the users of our docks, we have everything from commercial fishing vessels to commercial boats--that being tugs, charters, work boats, barges, a

Fisheries committee  I'm Pat McPhee, District of Port Hardy Harbour Authority.

It would have to be something that would be looked at in conjunction with the district office. They're ultim

Fisheries committee  I should have made notes.

Fisheries committee  I think our percentages are low compared to the number of boats we have in the harbour at any given time. The year we took over, I think there were three boats taken out and a couple more that should have been taken out or were in the process of being removed from the harbour, bu

Fisheries committee  You're welcome. One of the questions that was asked was how we got along with the small craft harbours people, and whether we had a good working relationship with them. Then in the same question was what you could look at as improvements. One of them was closed-circuit TV or sur
