Annual Report for SASSCo, DBA Taku Fisheries/Smokeries 

. Please find attached our Annual Report for activity for the year 2005. We 

have no changes to our Notice of Intent to be covered under our NPDES 

general permit. 

Enclosed is our extensive dive survey and charts, as well as our received and 

discharged pounds, as well as copies of our shoreline and grinder log 

observations. 

Overall the year was uneventful regarding discharge issues. Total production 

was down by 13% in received pounds and by 12% in discharged lbs. Our 

discharge pile on the seafloor remains in the low Tier 1 category. Our dive 

team performed some bracket repair so as to insure the discharge line was 

securely fastened to the concrete anchors. The divers noted.no anaerobic 

activity regarding our discharge pile area .. 

The shoreline and sea surface remain pristine and were virtually unaffected 

by our activity. We did institute a change on our pump system as 

recommended by the EP AlDec inspection in the summer of 2004 where we 

installed a 55 gallon drum to receive the pump return water in orderto 

further reduce the foaming activity caused by the water drop. We had a hose 

come out of the bottom of this drum which discharged below the water line 

and basically eliminated any residual foam caused by the fish pump. 

Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments.

A.nnual Report for SASSCo, Inc. - DBA Taku Fisheries/Smokeries 

Please find attached our annual report for 2006. We have no changes to our 

Notice ofIntent and we do intend on operating in 2007. We have enclosed 

the dive survey which was done after production had ceased for 2006. Our 

discharge pile remains in the Tier I category. 

~ 

In general, production was up at the plant in 2006 which was mostly due to a 

very large Chum salmon run which occurred in our district in the summer. 

There are no periods ofnon compliance to report. The plant operated 216 

production days in 2006. Our Shoreline survey was done daily by Dan 

Pardee who is our Q.C and Compliance director .. We did have notations of 

19 instances where some foaming discharge on the water from tenders 

occurred and. also 7 instances offloating ice which was discharged from 

longline vessels. The Facility operates under its Best Management Plan on a 

daily basis. 

Thank you for your consideration on this matter and feel free to contact me 

with any questions.

Annual Report for SASSCo, Inc. DBA Taku Fisheries/Smokeries 


NPDES Permit # AK-G52-0412 


Please find attached our annual report for 2007. We have no changes to our 

NOI and we do intend on operating in 2008. I have enclosed the dive survey 

which was done in the late fall when we were 990/0 done with 2007 

production. Our discharge area remains in the Tier 1 category. 

In general, plant production was down 20% in 2007 and discharges were 

down 23%. We had reductions in Halibut and Black cod quotas and a pretty 

weak salmon season. 

There are no periods ofnon compliance to report. The Plant operated 196 

days in 2007. Our Shoreline survey and Best Management Plan inspections 

were done daily by Dan Pardee who is our Q.C and Compliance Person. We 

did note 9 days ofboat foam primarily from Salmon Tenders while pumping 

fish. We used 3 x $800 barrels of defoamer through the summer. 

Thank you for your consideration on this matter and feel free to contact me 


with any questions.

Noncompliance statement: 

We noted 3 instances of foam on the water near the dock on July 23, 

Aug. 21, and Sept. 1 as a result of pumping salmon from tenders. 

There were a few more instances but when the shoreside monitoring is 

done daily there mayor may not be anything present at that time. As I 

have stated on prior annual reports we spend $3,000 a year on de 

foamer which generally does a great job of eliminating the foam. As a 

rule the foam dissipates quickly on the water. 

We also had a situation in early September where we had some totes 

full of water and fish which were leaking due to bad plugs and we had 

some bloody water escape the totes near the dock. We have inspected 

the plugs and have new ones and a wrench to tighten the plugs to not 

allow them to leak.

INTRODUCTION 

This report is an underwater survey of the Taku Smokeries Plant to assess the seafloor condition 

around the waste outfall line, in accordance with EPA guidelines. A team of two divers conducted 

this survey on November 06,2009. 

PURPose 

This survey is designed to comply with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) permit 

monitoring requirements of the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit 

for Alaska Seafood Processors. 

SCOPE OF WORK 

The Scope of Work included a radiating transect, in 45 degree increments, originating from the 

end of the waste outfall pipe. All areas of deposited seafood processing waste were measured and 

recorded by still camera. 

METHODS 

The center point of reference is a point approximately 60' from the end of the discharge pipe at a 

depth of 86'. Measuring points began at the first observed area of accumulated fish waste and 

continued until fish waste became inSignificant. At each sample point, the diver recorded; 

pertinent data, water depth, depth of waste and coverage of waste. Transects were labeled with 

their magnetic compass heading. During each transect, a still camera was used to document sample 

points as well as to document the accumulation of fish waste. Each photo was shot to provide visual 

references to each sample.

1 
OBSERVATIONS 

Transect # 3. 0 - 180 Degrees 

The outfall pipe end is located approximately 55' from the corner edge of the city dock. This is 

located approximately 75' below the surface, attached to cement anchors with metal brackets 

bolted on the top of the pipe to hold the pipe in place. There was a significant amount of fish 

waste under the outfall pipe. All of the fish waste extended seaward, down a steep slope. The 

waste pile continued seaward, with the surface of the waste pile varying in depths as followed 

according to the survey tape. A length of 0.0' on the tape at a depth of 4.0', at a length of 15' on 

the tape at a depth of 6.0', at a length of 25' on the survey tape a depth of 6.3', at a length of 35' a 

depth 6.6', at a length of 50' on the survey tape at a depth of 9.4', at a length of 60' at a depth of 

8.6', at a length of 90' on the survey tape a depth of 6.0', at length of 100' on the survey tape a 

depth of 4.5', at a length of 120' on the survey tape a depth of O. The center point of this 

transect was at approximately 60' from the end of the waste outfall pipe at a depth of 90'. 

This transect began at 180 degrees magnetic compass, with the waste pile beginning at 0' and 

extending to 120' on the survey tape, the waste pile water depth began at 65' and ended at a depth 

of 115'. The depth of the fish waste measured along this Transect # 30 - 180 Degrees fallows:

Ending comments and observations 

In the area just under the outfall pipe, there was the most amount of fish waste. Digging down 

through the waste revealed a very fine black material that dispersed easily. No bacterial mat 

indicating an anaerobic condition, which would inhibit normal decomposition, was present. 

Particle Size, and Calculated Area. 

One waste pile exists with maximum particle size approximately 1.2 inch in size. Percent of waste 

pile under t inch is about 92cro. 

The total area measures approximately 120 ft Width X 150 ft in Length giving a calculated area of 

approximately 18,000 sq. ft, of an acre. t acre equals 21,780 sq. ft.

Annual Report for SASSCo, INC. - DBA Taku Fisheries/Smokeries 

APDES permit # AK-G52-0412 

Please find enclosed our Annual report of operations and discharges for 

2009. We intend on operating again in 2010. 

I have attached the dive and sea floor survey which was once again 

performed by Douglas Island Diving. Overall plant production/purchases 

and discharges were down slightly from 2008. I have also noted a few 

instances of foam around the dock and some bloody water. 

The plant operates daily under its Best Management plan guidelines. 

Thank you for your consideration on this matter and feel free to contact me 

with any questions.
