EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) of 1972, as amended, established the National Estuarine Research Reserve System (NERRS). Section (§) 312 and §315 of the CZMA require the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to conduct periodic performance reviews or evaluations of all federally designated National Estuarine Research Reserves (NERRs); §312 and their implementing regulations describe the evaluation process requirements. The review described in this document examined the operation and management of the Elkhorn Slough National Estuarine Research Reserve (ESNERR or “the Reserve”) during the evaluation period of April 2005 through July 2010. The California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG or “the Department”) administers ESNERR. This document describes the evaluation findings of the Director of NOAA’s Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management (OCRM) with respect to ESNERR during the evaluation period. These evaluation findings include discussions of major accomplishments as well as recommendations for program improvement. The conclusion of the findings is that the State of California successfully implemented its federally approved NERR during the evaluation period. The evaluation team documented a number of accomplishments during this review period. ESNERR strategic planning led to a new management plan that integrates conservation goals across its sectors and emphasizes ecosystem-based management for the Reserve. CDFG memoranda of understanding with strategic partners NOAA, the California State Coastal Conservancy (“Coastal Conservancy”), and the Elkhorn Slough Foundation (“Foundation”) clarify and codify these collaborative, evolving partnerships. The Reserve’s productive staff performed a wide breadth and large quantity of noteworthy programmatic work. The Reserve’s monitoring and research activities aligned with its conservation goals and generated high quality data that provide a unique look at the continued evolution of the Elkhorn Slough ecosystem, inform land management decisions and education, and document the state of the Reserve. The Coastal Training Program built and nurtured collaborative learning networks that inform and connect decision makers. The Reserve’s science-based approach to protecting species and habitats addressed many of the stressors to these resources. ESNERR volunteers supported the Reserve’s work towards conservation goals across the research, education, and stewardship sectors and increased the number of ambassadors of Elkhorn Slough All but two of the recommendations for the Reserve are Program Suggestions, and describe actions that OCRM believes CDFG should take to improve the program but that are not currently mandatory. Related to the Coastal Conservancy requesting CZMA § 315 operation and management funds for Reserve on behalf of CDFG, OCRM strongly urges CDFG to undertake efforts needed to empower CDFG to become the sole applicant for these financial assistance awards. OCRM encourages the Reserve to collaborate with the Elkhorn Slough Foundation, NOAA, and other appropriate partners to establish thoughtful criteria for ESNERR boundary expansion. OCRM strongly encourages the Reserve to update its education market analysis and ELKHORN SLOUGH NATIONAL ESTUARINE RESEARCH RESERVE 2 FINAL EVALUATION FINDINGS FOR APRIL 2005 – JULY 2010 needs assessment, and inform the upcoming management plan, educational curricula, and training materials updates through an education strategic planning process. In addition, the findings include a necessary action for CDFG to fill the vacant reserve manager position prior to July 1, 2011 and a necessary action for the Reserve to take action to obtain spending authority over Minhoto property lease income. ELKHORN SLOUGH NATIONAL ESTUARINE RESEARCH RESERVE 3 FINAL EVALUATION FINDINGS FOR APRIL 2005 – JULY 2010 II. PROGRAM REVIEW PROCEDURES A. OVERVIEW NOAA began its review of the Reserve in April 2010. The §312 evaluation process involved four distinct components: an initial document review and identification of specific issues of particular concern; a site visit to California, including interviews and a public meeting; development of draft evaluation findings; and preparation of the final evaluation findings, partly based on comments from the state regarding the content and timetables of recommendations specified in the draft document. The recommendations made by this evaluation appear in boxes and bold type and may be of two types: Necessary Actions address programmatic requirements of the CZMA’s implementing regulations and of the Reserve designated by NOAA. These must be carried out by the date(s) specified; Program Suggestions denote actions that OCRM believes would improve the program, but are not mandatory at this time. If no dates are indicated, OCRM expects the state will consider

Justin Brown, (814) 863-8370, [email protected]; professional presentation Historically, viral-induced neoplasia in wild turkeys has been rare and most often associated with reticuloendotheliosis virus. In 2009, lymphoproliferative disease virus (LPDV), an uncommon source of lymphotumoral disease in domestic turkeys in Europe and Israel, was first identified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequence confirmation in a wild turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) from Arkansas with lymphoid tumors in multiple organs. Subsequent surveillance identified LPDV in a total of 41 wild turkey diagnostic cases from 18 states in the eastern United States of America (USA). Based on gross and microscopic lesions, lymphoid neoplasia was determined to be the cause of morbidity or mortality in a minority (15%) of these LPDV positive wild turkeys.

    1 Musiker zum Mitnehmen Das CD- und DVD-Angebot der Bibliotheken zum Festival 2018 2 Enjoy Jazz – in der Metropolregion Vom 2. Oktober bis 17. November findet in Mannheim, Heidelberg und Ludwigshafen das 20. Internationale Festival für Jazz und Anderes statt. Fast sieben Wochen lang wird in weit über 60 Veranstaltungen jede Menge Musik aus den Bereichen Jazz, Weltmusik, Indierock, Ethnopop, Crossover und auch Klassik präsentiert. Viele international bekannte Namen sind dabei wie z. B. der norwegische Jazzpianist und Romanautor Ketil Bjørnstad, der ebenfalls norwegische Saxofonist Jan Garbarek oder der Saxofonist Joshua Redman aus den USA. Auch viele große Ensembles treten auf, z. B. das australische Jazz-Trio The Necks, das deutsche Pablo-Held-Trio oder die Schweizer Jazz-Band Nik Bärtsch’s Ronin, die inzwischen fast jedes Jahr dabei ist. Mit der kanadischen Indie-Rockband Esmerine, der amerikanischen Soul-Sängerin Avery Sunshine und der Musik im Kontext Bernd Alois Zimmermann wird die Brücke zu anderen Musikgattungen geschlagen. Auch die deutsche Jazz-Szene ist reich vertreten mit Künstlern wie dem Pianisten Michael Wollny, der Cellistin Anja Lechner oder dem Träger des diesjährigen SWR-Jazzpreises Sebastian Gille. Regionale Größen wie der stil-prägende Gitarrist Claus Boesser-Ferrari oder der in Ludwigshafen lebende Schlagzeuger Erwin Ditzner ergänzen das vielfältige Angebot. Und wieder kann man die Musik nicht nur live auf der Bühne erleben, sondern auch bequem daheim auf dem Sofa oder entspannt in Straßenbahn oder Auto, denn die drei Stadtbibliotheken Mannheim, Heidelberg und Ludwigshafen beteiligen sich ebenfalls an dem Event, indem sie ihren Kundinnen und Kunden eine große Auswahl an CDs und DVDs der auftretenden Künstlerinnen und Künstler anbieten.
