The information contained within the database and this report reflect the comments and additional data provided by the reviewers during the summer of 1994. Direct any comments, questions or problems relating to the National Coastal Pollutant Discharge Inventory (NCPDI) Point Source Inventory to Percy A. Pacheco or Daniel R. G. Farrow at the address on the inside of the back cover. Acknowledgments The Project Team wishes to thank those individuals in the five jurisdictions of the Gulf of Maine Program who reviewed the data and the draft of this report. The comments and the additional data they supplied improved the reliability of the Point Source Inven­ tory. The Project Team would also like to acknowl­ edge the support provided by NOAA's Coastal Ocean Program and Region I of the EPA. Finally, the Team would like thank our colleagues in the Strate­ gic Environmental Assessments Division for their contributions in completing this project, particularly Manyu Swain and John J. Hayes for assisting in the data review, and Mitchell J. Katz for his editorial comments.

  • A Review of Ice and Tide Observations in the Bay of Fundy
    A tlantic Geology 195 A review of ice and tide observations in the Bay of Fundy ConDesplanque1 and David J. Mossman2 127 Harding Avenue, Amherst, Nova Scotia B4H 2A8, Canada departm ent of Physics, Engineering and Geoscience, Mount Allison University, 67 York Street, Sackville, New Brunswick E4L 1E6, Canada Date Received April 27, 1998 Date Accepted December 15,1998 Vigorous quasi-equilibrium conditions characterize interactions between land and sea in macrotidal regions. Ephemeral on the scale of geologic time, estuaries around the Bay of Fundy progressively infill with sediments as eustatic sea level rises, forcing fringing salt marshes to form and reform at successively higher levels. Although closely linked to a regime of tides with large amplitude and strong tidal currents, salt marshes near the Bay of Fundy rarely experience overflow. Built up to a level about 1.2 m lower than the highest astronomical tide, only very large tides are able to cover the marshes with a significant depth of water. Peak tides arrive in sets at periods of 7 months, 4.53 years and 18.03 years. Consequently, for months on end, no tidal flooding of the marshes occurs. Most salt marshes are raised to the level of the average tide of the 18-year cycle. The number of tides that can exceed a certain elevation in any given year depends on whether the three main tide-generating factors peak at the same time. Marigrams constructed for the Shubenacadie and Cornwallis river estuaries, Nova Scotia, illustrate how the estuarine tidal wave is reshaped over its course, to form bores, and varies in its sediment-carrying and erosional capacity as a result of changing water-surface gradients.

Canadian Manuscript Report of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences Manuscript reports contain scientific and technical information that contributes to existing knowledge but which deals with national or regional problems. Distribu- tion is restricted to institutions or individuals located in particular regions of Canada. However, no restriction is placed on subject matter, and the series reflects the broad interests and policies of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, namely, fisheries and aquatic sciences. Manuscript reports may be cited as full publications. The correct citation appears above the abstract of each report. Each report is abstracted in Aquatic Sciences and Fisherics Abstracts and indexed in the Department's annual index to scientific and technical publications. Numbers 1-900 in this series were issued as Manuscript Reports (Biological Series) of the Biological Board of Canada, and subsequent to 1937 when the name of the Board was changed by Act of Parliament, as Manuscript Reports ( Biological Series) of the Fisherics Research Board of Canada. Numbers 901-1425 were issued as Manuscript Reports of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada.

  • Annapolis Basin Bay of Fundy Estuary Profile Annapolis Basin
    Bay of Fundy Estuary Profiles Annapolis Basin Bay of Fundy Estuary Profile Annapolis Basin The Annapolis Basin is a sub-basin of the Bay of Fundy along the northwestern shore of Nova Scotia and at the western end of the Annapolis Valley. The Annapolis River is the major water source flowing into the estuary. At the NB mouth of the estuary, a narrow channel known as the Digby Gut connects the 44 NS estuary to the Bay of Fundy. Annapolis Royal and Digby are the main communities along the shore of the estuary, and Kingston-Greenwood is within the catchment area. Near Digby, there is a ferry port that connects to Saint John, New Brunswick. The estuary also hosts a tidal power generating station, which is near Annapolis Royal. The economy within the catchment area is largely driven by agriculture. However, Estuary surface area 104.07 km2 there are also several shellfish and finfish aquaculture tenures, and some Width at estuary mouth 1.85 km commercial fisheries near the mouth of the estuary that largely target Shoreline length 200.63 km invertebrates such as crab, lobster, and clams that inhabit tidal mudflats. The Catchment area 2322.05 km2 extensive tidal mudflats within the estuary are important habitat for Shorebird colonies 2 shorebirds. Within the catchment area there is freshwater habitat for wood Protected area 94.81 km2 turtles, and two protected areas that overlap with the landward boundary of Paved roads 1028 km the estuary.

  • Wampanoag, Tribespeople “Of the Dawn”
    THE WAMPANOAG, TRIBESPEOPLE “OF THE DAWN” “Ye see, Hinnissy, th’ Indyun is bound f’r to give way to th’ onward march iv white civilization. You ’an me, Hinnissy, is th’ white civilization... The’ on’y hope f’r th’ Indyun is to put his house on rollers, an’ keep a team hitched to it, an’, whin he sees a white man, to start f’r th’ settin’ sun.” — Finley Peter Dunne, OBSERVATIONS BY MR. DOOLEY, New York, 1902 HDT WHAT? INDEX WAMPANOAG WAMPANOAG When the English settlements first commenced in New England, that part of its territory, which lies south of New Hampshire, was inhabited by five principal nations of Indians: the Pequots, who lived in Connecticut; the Narragansets, in Rhode Island; the Pawkunnawkuts, or Womponoags, east of the Narragansets and to the north as far as Charles river;1 the Massachusetts, north of Charles river and west of Massachusetts Bay; and the Pawtuckets, north of the Massachusetts. The boundaries and rights of these nations appear not to have been sufficiently definite to be now clearly known. They had within their jurisdiction many subordinate tribes, governed by sachems, or sagamores, subject, in some respects, to the principal sachem. At the commencement of the seventeenth century, they were able to bring into the field more than 18,000 warriors; but about the year 1612, they were visited with a pestilential disease, whose horrible ravages reduced their number to about 1800.2 Some of their villages were entirely depopulated. This great mortality was viewed by the first Pilgrims, as the accomplishment of one of the purposes of Divine Providence, by making room for the settlement of civilized man, and by preparing a peaceful asylum for the persecuted Christians of the old world.
