"Of course with the boat coming out of the boat slip and having to be on a trailer, our response time will be increased slightly. We are working different operational plans to ensure that increase is not too high," Beseda said.

Beseda says that the time frame is about 11 minutes. He says their lease at Bluff’s Landing Marina is good until September 30th.

Chief Beseda also said ESD2 will update the community when it decides on a permanent solution.
