But after a $260,000 fed- eral loan te outfit processing plants in Port Simpson and Masset means the rest of the fish can now be marketed, says Joe Whitney of the 16- 37 Community Futures De- velopment Corporation (CFDC) in Terrace. Whitney studied the feasibility of the project and coordinated the loan through the Fisheries Legacy Trust Fund — a coastal community-based trust made up of federal money . ‘‘We wanted to have a better look at what’s in our area here and talk to native fishermen,’’ said Whitney. He said the money will provide steady jobs for 40 processors in Port Simpson and 50 more in Masset for six to eight months of the year. Add to that those who will be catching the fish during the salmon off-season, spinoff industries like truck- ing and airlines, and you have a considerable amount of people getting back to work, Whitney said.

Because the Official Community Plan designation is also to be changed, the rezoning will require a public hearing.
