The refuge is located in the towns of Stueben, Milbridge, and Addison in Washington County, Maine. Petit Manan Peninsula has a rugged, windblown character. Its habi­ tats consist of red spruce forests with some mixed hardwoods, coastal raised heath peatlands, fresh and saltwater marshes, blueberry barrens, jack pine stands, old hayfields, rocky shores and cobble beaches. It is noted for its use by waterfowl, especially black ducks, shorebirds, and raptors—especially bald eagles. ^ At the turn of the century most of the peninsula was owned by the Maine Coast Club, a group of wealthy spo'rtsment from Philadelphia and Boston.

  • Notice of Agency Emergency Rule-Making
    MAPA-4 NOTICE OF AGENCY EMERGENCY RULE-MAKING AGENCY: Department of Marine Resources CHAPTER NUMBER AND TITLE: Chapter 11.08, Targeted Closures: (7) Gouldsboro/Dyers Bays Rotational Area, (8) Upper Machias Bay Rotational Area, and (9) Vinalhaven Islands in the Lower Penobscot Bay Rotational Area CONCISE SUMMARY: The Commissioner adopts this emergency rulemaking to implement conservation closures in Gouldsboro Dyers Bay Rotational Area, Upper Machias Rotational Area and Vinalhaven Islands in the Lower Penobscot Bay Rotational Area. These closures are required to protect Maine’s scallop resources from the risk of unusual damage and imminent depletion. The Department is concerned that continued harvesting for the duration of the 2018-19 fishing season will further reduce the abundance of remaining broodstock that is essential to the ongoing recruitment, regrowth and recovery of the scallop resource. For these reasons, the Commissioner hereby adopts an emergency closure of Maine’s scallop fishery in these areas as authorized by 12 M.R.S. §6171(3)(A). EFFECTIVE DATE: February 10, 2019 AGENCY CONTACT PERSON: Melissa Smith (207-624-6558) AGENCY NAME: Department of Marine Resources ADDRESS: State House Station 21 Augusta, Maine 04333-0021 WEB SITE: http://www.maine.gov/dmr/rulemaking/ E-MAIL: [email protected] FAX: (207) 624-6024 TTY: (888) 577-6690 (Deaf/Hard of Hearing) DEPARTMENT OF MARINE RESOURCES Chapter 11 Scallops 11.08 Targeted Scallop Conservation Closures Targeted closures are imposed as conservation measures to assist in rebuilding specific areas of the state. Targeted closures may be implemented based on depletion, seed, the presence of spat-producing scallops, and other conservation factors as determined by the Commissioner.

Emergency Regulations CONCISE SUMMARY: The Commissioner adopts this emergency rulemaking for the implementation of conservation closures located in Gouldsboro & Dyer Bays, Wohoa Bay & Jonesport Reach and Inner Machias Rotational Area in order to protect Maine’s scallop resource due to the risk of unusual damage and imminent depletion. Scallop populations throughout the state are at extremely low levels. The Department is concerned that unrestricted harvesting during the remainder of the 2015-16 fishing season in these areas may deplete a severely diminished resource beyond its ability to recover. Continued harvesting may damage sublegal scallops that could be caught during subsequent fishing seasons, as well as reducing the broodstock essential to a recovery. These immediate conservation closures are necessary to reduce the risk of unusual damage and imminent depletion. For these reasons, the Commissioner hereby adopts an emergency closure of Maine’s scallop fishery in Gouldsboro & Dyer Bays, Wohoa Bay & Jonesport Reach and Inner Machias Rotational Area as authorized by 12 M.R.S. §6171(3). In addition, a clarification to the access in the Muscle Ridge Limited Targeted Closure is needed to ensure that access to this area does not overlap with that for the

SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE MARINE SCIENCES NUMBER 25 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian FolMife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.
