CBJ Docks & Harbors announced Friday morning that Harbormaster Matt Creswell has been recognized by the Alaska Association of Harbormasters & Port Administrators (AAHPA) as the 2023 Alaska Harbormaster of the Year.
“Juneau is fortunate to have a high caliber of harbor staff overseeing the needs of our waterfront,” said CBJ Port Director Carl Uchytil. “Harbormaster Creswell, leading the efforts, is an extremely competent public servant who is dedicated to providing exceptional harbor services as well as demonstrating the highest standards of integrity.”
Harbormaster Creswell, in receiving the award, noted, “I am thankful to be recognized for this honor but my appreciation is to the Docks & Harbors staff for their professionalism and support which led to this award.”
Creswell was cited for his management of Juneau’s $250 million port and harbor infrastructure and supervision of 50 personnel.
As a Facility Security Officer, he expertly coordinated 1.6 million cruise ship passengers to Juneau, exceeding the 2019 record and representing a 25% increase from 2022.
He was also instrumental in a successful focused effort to ensure compliance with the removal of derelict vessels and derelict vehicles throughout the harbors.
Creswell has achieved professional credentials from the International Association of Maritime and Port Executives, and the Association of Marina Industries and is pursuing a Professional Port Manager certification through the American Association of Port Authorities.
He has been a CBJ employee since 2016 and the Docks & Harbors Harbormaster since 2020.
Statter Harbor Supervisor Jeremy Norbryhn was also recognized during the AAHPA conference as the Juneau Harbor Employee of the Year.
Norbryhn’s leadership in managing Statter Harbor’s new for-hire-floats has resulted in efficient summer operations.
He was also key in the tedious process of renewing Docks & Harbors certification for Alaska Clean Harbors, which only two harbors statewide have achieved.
The citation credited Norbryhn’s positive influence not only with the public but also in the professional development of the Docks & Harbors staff.
He has been a CBJ employee since 2021.
