Coastal Cleanups COASTAL January 28th 2015 CLEANUPS Improving ocean health and building community one cleanup at a time Clean Ocean Access Improving ocean health and building community one cleanup at a time This page is intentionally left blank. Page 1 of 151 Clean Ocean Access Improving ocean health and building community one cleanup at a time EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Living on Aquidneck Island almost guarantees that each person has a personal connection with our natural resources, whether it is enjoying a walk on the coastline, days at the beach with family or a multitude of ocean activities with your friends. Our CLEAN program is to make sure these activities can occur on a beautiful shoreline of a healthy ocean for future generations. With 4,379 volunteers we have performed 143rd coastal cleanups in locations across Newport, Middletown, Portsmouth and Barrington, Jamestown and Little Compton and removed 59,486 pounds of small to medium size marine debris from the shoreline since September of 2006. Although this amazing accomplishment has possibly improved ocean health and undoubtedly had a noticeable positive contribution to beautifying our coastline, the biggest accomplishment of the program is the abundance of friendships and building momentum of positive energy within the entire community. When people get outside, connect with nature and meet other people that care deeply about the coastline; that is when we start to talk openly and easily about the issues facing our island and realize that making the right decisions for the environment is within our reach and something we can achieve. Check out this report to see how Clean Ocean Access is improving ocean health and building community one coastal cleanup at a time. You might even see a picture of yourself!

Department of Geology Weston Observatory University of Kentucky Dept, of Geology & Geophysics Lexington, KY 40506 Boston College Weston, MA 02193 INTRODUCTION The older rocks of Newport, Rhode Island have been extensively described (full bibliography in Quinn, 1971). In recent years these rocks were dis­ cussed by Kay and Chappie (1976), mapped by Moore (1975), and Smith (1978) has dated the Newport granite which intrudes the bedded rocks. The bedded succ­ ession has been referred to, on incomplete evidence but correctly,as a meta sedimentary sequence overlain by volcaniclastic rocks (Quinn, 1971). Each of the two sequences is of a considerable thickness and the informal terms, New­ port and Price's Neck formation have been given to the metasedimentary and the metavolcanic sequence respectively (Rast and Skehan, in press 1981).

  • Lila Katzen's Stainless-Steel Oracle Provided a Meditative Perch for Two
    Lila Katzen’s stainless-steel Oracle provided a meditative perch for two visitors to Monumenta in 1974. All illustrations in this article are courtesy of the William and Gael Crimmins Papers and Photos on Monumenta, Salve Regina University Special Collections, McKillop Library, Salve Regina University, Newport. Newport and Monumenta: The Ambition, Controversy, and Legacy of Contemporary Sculpture Diane M. Patrella As the late 1960s gave way to the 1970s, there was a cultural revolution in the United States. Gone were the conservative 1950s. This was the Vietnam era with its mood of counter-cultural uprising. In the 1970s, the United States experienced the worst recession in forty years. There were anti-war riots, anti-government riots, and the tragedy of Kent State in Ohio, where a university student was killed during a peaceful protest. The country experienced an oil embargo, leading to very long gas lines. The space program was going strong; the computer was being refined; the landmark abortion rights case of Roe vs. Wade divided the country. The memories of an assassinated president, John F. Kennedy, and a martyred civil rights leader, Martin Luther King, were still fresh. Instead of CNN, Walter Cronkite gave us the nightly news. The Newport Bridge, later renamed to honor Senator Claiborne Pell, opened in 1969, linking the Newport to Jamestown, and ultimately to mainland Rhode Island. In 1973, shortly before leaving the Presidency in disgrace, Nixon pulled the Navy out of Newport. This had terrible financial consequences for the city. Historically, Newport was a city renowned for its traditional architecture with quaint colonial houses and Gilded Age mansions.
