  • Patrick-Murray Administration Announces Federal Grants to Seven Buzzards Bay Watershed Communities
    For Immediate Release - August 27, 2010 Patrick-Murray Administration Announces Federal Grants to Seven Buzzards Bay Watershed Communities BOSTON - August 27, 2010 - Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA) Secretary Ian Bowles today announced $282,512 in federal grants to help seven South Coast communities protect and restore Buzzards Bay. The grants will fund land conservation and infrastructure improvement projects designed to conserve open space and rare species habitat, protect drinking water resources, and restore herring migration grounds. Administered by the Office of Coastal Zone Management's (CZM) Buzzards Bay National Estuary Program, the grants help South Coast and Cape Cod communities to protect and restore water quality and natural resources in Buzzards Bay and its surrounding watershed. "These funds help communities protect their coastal environments, which are some of the Commonwealth's most treasured landscapes," said Governor Deval Patrick. "These Buzzards Bay communities are prime examples of environmental stewardship and leadership," said Secretary Bowles, whose office includes CZM. "The Commonwealth is proud to partner with them by providing grants that will continue important efforts to protect our precious coastal resources." The federal grants, which last year totaled $167,000 for eight southeastern Massachusetts communities, are funded by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Buzzards Bay National Estuary Program is one of 28 similar programs designated by the EPA. In 1985, Congress designated Buzzards Bay an Estuary of National Significance. The effort was led by the late Senator Edward M. Kennedy, who joined with other legislators to pass legislation that led to the creation of the National Estuary Program in 1983.

  • Chapter XVII. Water Rights
    Chapter XVII WATER RIGHTS Watuppa Ponds and the Quequechan River The North Watuppa Pond and the South Watuppa Pond are eac h great ponds, situated along the east boundary of the City of Fall River . The North Pond is about four miles long and from three-quarters of a mile to a mile and a quarter wide and is fed by springs beneath it, by surface water from surrounding land and a few insignificant streams. It is connected with the South Watuppa Pond by a narrow passage . There is no per- ceptible current in the North Watuppa Pond, but at its south end there i s a slight current toward the South Watuppa Pond. The South Watuppa Pond is of approximately the same area as the North Watuppa Pond bu t at its north end it is considerably wider. It is fed by the waters from the Sawdy Pond and Davol Pond at its south end, by the waters from Staffor d Pond from the southwest, and the Christopher Borden Brook supplies som e water from the southeast. The Quequechan River is unnavigable and is th e only outlet of both ponds . It flows in a general westerly direction from th e northwest shore of the South Watuppa Pond and passes through the city , emptying into Mount Hope Bay with an average daily flow of twenty-si x million gallons. For a mile and a half the current of the Quequechan River is sluggish , but in the last half mile it falls rapidly for one hundred and twenty-nine feet, down a succession of ledges, into the Bay .
