  • Massachusetts Commercial Fishing Port Profiles
    MASSACHUSETTS COMMERCIAL FISHING PORT PROFILES The Massachusetts Commercial Fishing Port Profiles were developed through a collaboration between the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries, the University of Massachusetts Boston’s Urban Harbors Institute, and the Cape Cod Commercial Fishermen’s Alliance. Using data from commercial regional permits, the Atlantic Coastal Cooperative Statistics Program’s (ACCSP) Standard Atlantic Fisheries Information System (SAFIS) Dealer Database, and harbormaster and fishermen surveys, these profiles provide an overview of the commercial fishing activity and infrastructure within each municipality. The Port Profiles are part of a larger report which describes the status of the Commonwealth’s commercial fishing and port infrastructure, as well as how profile data can inform policy, programming, funding, infrastructure improvements, and other important industry- related decisions. For the full report, visit the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries website. Key Terms: Permitted Harvesters: Commercially permitted harvesters residing in the municipality Vessels: Commercially permitted vessels with the municipality listed as the homeport Trips: Discrete commercial trips unloading fish or shellfish in this municipality Active Permitted Harvesters: Commercially permitted harvesters with at least one reported trans- action in a given year Active Dealers: Permitted dealers with at least one reported purchase from a harvester in a given year Ex-Vessel Value: Total amount ($) paid directly to permitted harvesters by dealers at the first point of sale file Port Port SCITUATE Pro Located on the South Shore, Scituate has three harbors: Scituate, North River, and South River- Humarock. Permitted commercial fisheries, which may or may not be active during the survey period, include: Lobster Pot, Dragger, Gillnetter, Clam Dredge, Scallop Dredge, Rod & Reel, For Hire/ Charter.

    COMPARING POLICIES FOR ENCOURAGING RETREAT FROM THE MASSACHUSETTS COAST Michael Graikoski and Porter Hoagland1 I. Introduction Along the US Atlantic coast, the lands and infrastructure located on barrier islands and beaches and in backbay estuarine environments face mounting threats from king tides, storm surges, and sea-level rise.2 From the late 19th century to the present, sea-level rise on the United States’ Atlantic coast has been more rapid than any other century-scale increase over the last 2000 years.3 Even slight increases in sea-level rise now have been hypothesized to significantly increase the risks of coastal flooding in many places.4 In New England, some of the most severe northeast storms (“nor’easters”) have become notorious for consequent extreme losses of coastal properties.

  • Town of Falmouth
    Town of Falmouth Plan for an Improved Transportation Network for Bicycling January 6, 2016 Town of Falmouth: 2015 Bike Plan Prepared by the Cape Cod Commission in cooperation with the Town of Falmouth and the Massachusetts Department of Transportation This report was funded in part through grants from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration (FTA), United States Department of Transportation (USDOT). The views and opinions of the Cape Cod Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) expressed herein do not necessarily state or reflect those of the USDOT. The Falmouth Bikeways Committee, consisting of citizen volunteers widely experienced in bicycling, transportation, and educational issues, contributed immeasurably to this Plan. They are Scott Lindell (Chair), Ed Gross (Vice-Chair), Ted Rowan (Treasurer), Jonathan Murray (Secretary), Bob Fitzpatrick, Kevin Lynch, Pamela Rothstein, JoAnn Fishbein, and Chris McGuire. We also had help from members of the Falmouth Bike Lab (Jeremy Tagliaferre and Anne Broache) and Friends of Falmouth Bikeways (Patty Leonard). The Bikeways Committee thanks Lev Malakhoff and Glenn Cannon for their valuable assistance. More information is available at [email protected] Executive Summary The 2015 Falmouth Bike Plan is a result of collaboration between the Town of Falmouth’s Bikeways Committee and the transportation staff of the Cape Cod Commission. Between 2010 and 2012 there were 43 reported crashes involving bicycles in Falmouth. It is widely accepted that many more occur but are unreported. This fact serves as one catalyst for action. The Plan identifies numerous problems on roads that would be desirable for bicycling if corrective actions such as reducing motorist speed and installing wider shoulders or bike lanes were implemented to encourage people who want to ride bicycles to feel safe.

Starting from outside the Manly Beach Lifesaving Club, the walk leads you along the coast, past an assortment of unique sculptures and the historic Fairy Bower Pool. The largest dog-friendly park in Sydney, almost half of this huge park in Sydney is off-leash. The off-leash dog section is located adjacent to the Bonna Point Reserve carpark, in between the third and fourth rock groynes.

  • Fish and Morse Family and Descendents
    Woods Hole Historical Collection P.O. Box 185 Woods Hole, MA 02543 REGISTER Fish-Morse Collection Accession Number 92-10 1724-1995 and to date 25 boxes FISH-MORSE COLLECTION HISTORY The Fish family of Quissett traces its ancestry to Nathan Fish, born 1660, probably in Sandwich, Massachusetts. His son Samuel was born in Falmouth and so was Samuel’s son Samuel. The second Samuel’s son Thomas (1762-1848) was the founder of the family which settled in the Quissett Harbor area between Falmouth and Woods Hole. Thomas Fish was a ship-builder, fought in the Revolutionary War and later became a teacher, a Justice of the Peace and a Barnstable County Commissioner. Most importantly, he was a representative to the Massachusetts State Legislature for 21 years. This position resulted in long absences from his beloved Quissett. In Falmouth he was important in the Congregational Church and became a Deacon of that church. This title preceded his name for the rest of his life. Thomas built the family “Homestead” on the east side of Quissett Harbor. During the time it was owned by his son Joseph (1804-1899) and later by his grandson, Thomas Dunham Fish (1840-1928), a porch was added to the front of the center-hall five-bay Colonial. Joseph married a lovely lady from Martha’s Vineyard, Albinia Daggett, and this firmly cemented the family to families from the Vineyard, including members of the Yale family. Thomas Dunham Fish married Albina Daggett Yale and Albina’s sister Sarah Smith Boardman Yale married Stephen W. Carey, a man of great influence in the later history of the Quissett Harbor area.

  • Spatial Heterogeneity of Microplastic Pollution on Cape Cod Beaches and the Impacts of Different Hydrographic Sources
    Microplastic pollution on Cape Cod beaches 1 Plastic Beach (The Arrival) Spatial heterogeneity of microplastic pollution on Cape Cod beaches and the impacts of different hydrographic sources Hector Ricardo Salazar Connecticut College Project Mentors: Rut Pedrosa Pamies*, JC Weber, Maureen Conte Ecosystems Center Marine Biological Laboratory Semester in Environmental Science Class of 2018 *Corresponding author: Rut Pedrosa Pamies [email protected] Microplastic pollution on Cape Cod beaches 2 ABSTRACT Plastic has become a large source of global pollution; it has entered our marine ecosystems and we are only beginning to see the effects on ecosystem health, animals, and humans. Plastic is a great threat to the environment due to its non-biodegradable properties and long resonance time once in the environment. Plastic debris now contaminate sandy, estuarine, and subtidal habitats in the Europe, Asia, and the Americas, with the global extent of microplastic contamination remaining unknown. This study aimed to assess the distribution of microplastics on Cape Cod beaches, and understand how microplastic contamination is influenced by various hydrodynamic sources as well as local and regional contamination sources. Microplastics are the result of these degraded discarded plastics that become ubiquitous in the marine environment; they are defined as plastic particles less than 5 mm in size. The results of this study suggest that microplastics are ubiquitous in coastal systems of Cape Cod, with a highly variable distribution. Total abundance was about an order of magnitude higher in Nantucket Sound (60g/m3) and Buzzards Bay (120g/m3) than Cape Cod Bay and Atlantic Ocean beaches (~15g/m3), possibly reflecting seasonal and year-round population trends.

  • Cape Cod Lighthouses TCCI
    Cape Cod Lighthouses Locations Click on a lighthouse on the map for more information The climb up circular stairs to the top of a lighthouse tower is not for the squeamish or for those afraid of heights. Most lighthouses have interesting stories related to their history. Some are open to the public and have “visiting hours.” Others are open only on special occasions. Usually a tour guide will take you through the building and offer you tales of lighthouse living. The winding staircases, the distant echo of your footsteps, waves hitting against the rock, distant ship hooting…that’s the dejavu you get when you visit the Cape Cod Lighthouses. It is as if you are part of the whole system that emits navigational lights to guide hundreds of ships to dock safely. Lighthouses are navigational aids that mark the perilous reeds, hazardous shoals and poorly charted coastlines for safe harbor entry. Once upon a time, the lighthouses were the marine pilot’s most important aids but the advent of electronic navigation has led to their decline. The system of lights and lamps on the lighthouses are also expensive to maintain. The vantage points occupied by the lighthouses make them a tourists’ attraction. You’ll go up the winding staircase with your pair of binoculars and voila! The beautiful Cape Cod Coastline spreads right before your eyes. Race Point Light Located in Provincetown, Massachusetts, the Race Point Lighthouse is one of the historical building in the National Register of Historic Places. It was first built in 1816, but the current 45-foot tall tower was built in 1876.
