Managers of halibut in the Pacific will be setting catch limits in January and could be considering a small decrease for commercial and guided sport fishing fleets in Southeast Alaska. The International Pacific Halibut Commission held its interim meeting at the end of November and scientists presented the latest information on catches and stock estimates for the valuable bottom fish.

Residents on nearly a dozen unpaved streets in Petersburg could have an avenue to get new asphalt under a program that received tentative support from the borough assembly Monday night. The catch is the residents on those streets would have to pay for that paving.
