On today’s episode of the Kenai Conversation, we’re joined by Seward City Manager Kat Sorensen to talk about what’s going on the eastern Kenai Peninsula, from a new influx of federal money for the U.S. Coast Guard, to the latest on plans for a new cruise ship terminal, to what's next for the city's electric utility.

This interview was recorded Feb. 17.
