  • Proposed Wisconsin – Lake Michigan National Marine Sanctuary
    Proposed Wisconsin – Lake Michigan National Marine Sanctuary Draft Environmental Impact Statement and Draft Management Plan DECEMBER 2016 | sanctuaries.noaa.gov/wisconsin/ National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) U.S. Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker Under Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and Atmosphere and NOAA Administrator Kathryn D. Sullivan, Ph.D. Assistant Administrator for Ocean Services and Coastal Zone Management National Ocean Service W.

Credit: Tamara Thomsen, Wisconsin Historical Society. Bottom: Photomosaic of the schooner Walter B. Allen. Credit: Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution - Advanced Imaging and Visualization Laboratory. 1 Abstract In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA, 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and the National Marine Sanctuaries Act (NMSA, 16 U.S.C. 1434 et seq.), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Office of National Marine Sanctuaries (ONMS) has prepared a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) that considers alternatives for the proposed designation of Wisconsin - Lake Michigan as a National Marine Sanctuary. The proposed action addresses NOAA’s responsibilities under the NMSA to identify, designate, and protect areas of the marine and Great Lakes environment with special national significance due to their conservation, recreational, ecological, historical, scientific, cultural, archaeological, educational, or aesthetic qualities as national marine sanctuaries. ONMS has developed five alternatives for the designation, and the DEIS evaluates the environmental consequences of each under NEPA. The DEIS also serves as a resource assessment under the NMSA, documenting present and potential uses of the areas considered in the alternatives.

  • Plastic Bag Ban Frequently Asked Questions
    PLASTIC BAG BAN FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS BACKGROUND On April 22, 2014, the city council unanimously voted to ban the use of single use plastic bags in Beverly Hills. WHY ARE PLASTIC BAGS BEING BANNED? Plastic bags have detrimental effects to our environment. A single plastic bag can take up to 1,000 years to degrade. Plastic bags are the second-most common type of ocean refuse, after cigarette butts. Plastic bags remain toxic even after they break down. Every square mile of ocean has about 46,000 pieces of plastic floating in it. Plastic bags are difficult to recycle. Less than 5% of the 19 billion (19,000,000,000) plastic bags used annually in California are actually recycled. WHEN DOES THE ORDINANCE GO INTO EFFECT? The plastic bag ban will be carried out in two phases. The First phase of the ordinance went into effect on July 1, 2014. Phase two, which bans plastic bags at small grocery stores, convenience stores, pharmacies, and food markets, will be put into practice on January 1, 2015. WHICH STORES ARE AFFECTED? Only stores selling breads, sodas, snacks, or other convenient items are affected. Phase 1 stores include: Ride Aid (Canon Dr.) Ride Aid (Bedford Dr.) CVS (Wilshire Blvd) Pavilions Whole Foods WHAT IF I DON’T HAVE REUSABLE BAGS? Since the ordinance’s adoption, the city has distributed reusable bags to residents at community events. As part of the ordinance, stores are required to carry inventory of reusable bags, which may be purchased by customers if needed. Stores are also required to sell paper bags for .10 cents each, so remember to bring your reusable bags when you shop! ARE PAPER BAGS STILL HARMFUL TO THE ENVIRONMENT? Yes, paper bags still have damaging effects to the environment.

  • AN INVESTIGATION of BED ARMORING PROCESS and the FORMATION of MICROCLUSTERS Joanna Crowe Curran, Assistant Professor, Dept. of C
    2nd Joint Federal Interagency Conference, Las Vegas, NV, June 27 - July 1, 2010 AN INVESTIGATION OF BED ARMORING PROCESS AND THE FORMATION OF MICROCLUSTERS Joanna Crowe Curran, Assistant Professor, Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Virginia, PO Box 400742, Charlottesville, VA 22904, 434-924-6224, [email protected]; Lu Tan, Graduate Student, Dept. of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Virginia, PO Box 400742, Charlottesville, VA 22904, [email protected] Abstract Armoring is a recognized phenomenon in gravel bed rivers that have been subject to periods of extended low flows. Coarsening creates a bed surface where greater intergranular friction angles increase the surface stability and the stress necessary to entrain the bed. We will present results from a series of flume experiments investigating the processes of bed armoring and microcluster formation with the purpose of quantifying the change in overall bed stability. Where a gravel bed river incorporates structure in its bed surface, overall bed stability increases. This structure forms a microtopography that increases the roughness of the bed. Microclusters, or discrete particle groupings on the bed surface, are common features in surface microtopography. The influence and interaction of the sediment grains and channel flow hydraulics during the armoring process has yet to be fully defined. Recent research on microclusters has focused on how the turbulent flow field is affected by their presence. Where 2D flow fields have been measured, the results point to a strong 3D component to turbulence around microforms, which has not been fully elucidated. The flume experiments presented here are designed to quantify the influence of independent variables over bed armoring, link the bed armoring process to the occurrence and distribution of microclusters on the armored bed, and measure the stability of the final, armored beds.

  • A Portfolio of Early Restoration Projects, Addressed to the Deepwater Horizon Natural Resource Damage Assessment Trustees
    To: Deepwater Horizon Natural Resource Damage Assessment Trustees Date: July 9, 2012 Subject: A Portfolio of Early Restoration Projects From: Environmental Defense Fund The Nature Conservancy National Audubon Society Ocean Conservancy National Wildlife Federation Oxfam America ____________________________________________________________________________ The Gulf of Mexico suffered significant and long-term environmental impacts in the wake of the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill. As recovery continues, it is critical that the injured resources and lost services be restored through a process that is comprehensive and scientifically based and that considers both cumulative and complementary projects to support true restoration across the Gulf – from coastal wetlands to marine waters and from Texas to Florida. We are a group of conservation, environmental and social equity organizations that have worked to support long-term recovery in the region for decades. As your agencies continue to chart the best path for restoring the Gulf environment, we encourage you to consider input from a variety of groups and weigh approaches that account for possible economic and community impacts in the region. We recognize that as trustees for the Deepwater Horizon Natural Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA), you have a task that is critically important to the well-being of the Gulf region, both now and in the future. As you continue to navigate this daunting effort, we offer you tools that we hope will be useful in shaping a comprehensive approach to restoration. Recommended policies and guidelines for restoring the Gulf environment. This broad set of guiding principles and criteria for early restoration projects is designed to help you evaluate which projects will be most helpful for the environment, communities and economies of the Gulf region.
