  • Preserve Cape Cod to Association
    Association to Preserve Cape Cod Association to Preserve Cape Cod, Inc. 2011 Annual Report P.O. Box 398, 3010 Main Street Barnstable, MA 02630 Never Forgotten & Still Making a Difference Maggie Geist retired as executive director of the Association to Preserve Cape Cod in 2011. For a dozen years, Maggie steered our organization over many challenges and established her reputation as both a passionate environmentalist and a creative businesswoman. Capewind, county government reform, the Cape Cod Water Resources Restoration Project, the Upper Cape Water Supply Reserve on 15,000 acres of the Massachusetts Military Reservation, the No Discharge Area designation for Cape Cod Bay and, most of all, clean water were all positively impacted by her proactive style. She is still working with APCC developing a regional wastewater plan. Maggie led APCC and lives her life by the creed instilled upon her by her mom: “Leave the world a better place than you found it.” In her honor, the board of directors established the Geist Internship. The Geist Internship is intended to be a perpetual fund established to permit APCC to help train the next generation of environmental scientists, planners, engineers and creative thinkers. Each summer APCC will hire a promising college student to work on a project to help preserve Cape Cod. The fund is over one third the way toward being a self-perpetuating dedicated fund for this purpose. Member generosity, especially from current and past board members, made this possible.

  • A. Geology, Soils and Topography Geology and Topography Glacial Deposits Formed the Shape of Cape Cod
    Section IV: Environmental Inventory and Analysis A. Geology, Soils and Topography Geology and Topography Glacial deposits formed the shape of Cape Cod. Approximately 25,000 years ago the Canadian Ice Sheet reached its southernmost point at Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. Three lobes of ice covered Cape Cod: the Cape Cod Bay Lobe, the South Channel Lobe, and the Buzzards Bay Lobe. About 15,500 years ago the sheets of ice began retreating, depositing rock debris, known as drift, as they receded. Drift ranges from till, an unstratified mixture of fine to coarse material, to deposits sorted by the flow of water and spread across the landscape. The drift deposited by the ice created the major landscape forms found in Falmouth and the Cape: moraines, outwash plains, kames (knobs), and kettle holes. Moraines are terminal ridges that represent the edge of a glacier. As the glacier retreated, drift was churned up and deposited in a ridge. The Buzzards Bay Moraine runs northeast from the Elizabeth Islands through Woods Hole to Sandwich. Outwash plains slope gradually away Map 4-1: Geologic Map of Cape Cod from the Buzzards Bay Moraine to the sea (Figure 4- 1). They are formed by sand Lake deposits and gravel deposits left by water streaming out of the Younger ice-contact deposits melting glacial lobes. Kames and kettles are known as ice Younger outwash deposits contact features. Kames are knobs of drift deposits left by Moraine deposits debris once embedded in ice. Kettles are holes in the ground Older outwash deposits formed by large ice blocks.

The Massachusetts Bay Hydrodynamic Model: 2005 Simulation. Boston: Massachusetts Water Resources Authority. Report 2008-12. 58 pp. Massachusetts Water Resources Authority Boston, Massachusetts The Massachusetts Bay Hydrodynamic Model: 2005 Simulation Prepared by: Mingshun Jiang & Meng Zhou Department of Environmental, Earth and Ocean Sciences University of Massachusetts Boston 100 Morrissey Blvd Boston, MA 02125 July 2008 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Boston Harbor, Massachusetts Bay and Cape Cod Bay system (MBS) is a semi- enclosed coastal system connected to the Gulf of Maine (GOM) through boundary exchange. Both natural processes including climate change, seasonal variations and episodic events, and human activities including nutrient inputs and fisheries affect the physical and biogeochemical environment in the MBS. Monitoring and understanding of physical–biogeochemical processes in the MBS is important to resource management and environmental mitigation. Since 1992, the Massachusetts Water Resource Authority (MWRA) has been monitoring the MBS in one of the nation’s most comprehensive monitoring programs. Under a cooperative agreement between the MWRA and University of Massachusetts Boston (UMB), the UMB modeling team has conducted numerical simulations of the physical–biogeochemical conditions and processes in the MBS during 2000-2004. Under a new agreement between MWRA, Battelle and UMB, the UMB continues to conduct a numerical simulation for 2005, a year in which the MBS experienced an unprecedented red–tide event that cost tens of millions dollars to Massachusetts shellfish industry. This report presents the model validation and simulated physical environment in 2005.

  • 2019 WATER HEALTH REPORT-Draft
    State of the Waters: Cape Cod 2019 Cape Cod Water Health Report State of the Waters: Cape Cod 2019 Cape Cod Water Health Report Association to Preserve Cape Cod October 1, 2019 Prepared by: Andrew Gottlieb, Jo Ann Muramoto, Ph.D., Jordanne Feldman, Bryan Horsley, Kristin Andres and Don Keeran 1. Introduction The State of the Waters: Cape Cod is an assessment of the Cape’s water quality, designed to help you understand the water quality problems that we face and the actions that are needed to address these problems. The Association to Preserve Cape Cod (APCC) launched this project in 2019 in order to answer the question: “How healthy are Cape Cod’s waters?” This website is the place to find out about the Cape’s water quality and what can be done to address water pollution and achieve clean water. For this multi-year project, APCC collected existing data on water quality on Cape Cod for the purpose of determining the health of Cape Cod’s waters. APCC evaluated water quality in coastal waters (saltwater), freshwater ponds and lakes, and public drinking water supplies. APCC used existing methods to score water quality and used the scores to distinguish between degraded surface waters where immediate action is needed to improve water quality vs. surface waters with acceptable quality where ongoing protection is needed to avoid any decline in quality. The results are summarized in this annual water health report. To guide public action, APCC prepared a Water Action Plan that contains recommendations for changes in policies, actions, and regulations to improve and protect our waters.

Air Quality Conformity Analysis Calculation Procedures for Determining Air Emissions In order to evaluate the applicability of this Clean Air Act statute, annual air emissions were calculated for each of the three mitigation tasks. Air emissions were estimated based on equipment types, engine sizes, and estimated hours of operation. The calculations made were of a "screening" nature using factors provided for diesel engines in the USEPA AP-42 Emission Factor document (EPA 1995). The emission factors used were expressed in lb/hp-hr. The factors utilized were as follows: • 0.00668 lb CO/hp-hr • 0.031 lb NOx/hp-hr • 0.00072 lb PM10/hp-hr • 0.00205 lb SO2/hp-hr Emissions were calculated by simply multiplying the usage hours by the equipment horsepower and then by emission factor. To be complete, emissions were calculated for the four primary internal combustion engine related air pollutants. Total project emissions were calculated by adding the number of specific projects anticipated over a given 12-month period.
