The Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary Is a Difficult Task, and the Authors Should Be Commended for Their Efforts 2008 OLYMPIC COAST NATIONAL MARINE SANCTUARY CONDITION REPORT REVIEWERS AND AFFILIATIONS James Delgado, Institute of Nautical Archaeology Sarah Dzinbal, Washington Department of Natural Resources Dave Fluharty University of Washington, School of Marine Affairs Rikk Kvitek California State University, Monterey Bay The document that follows is a copy of the DRAFT Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary Condition Report that was disseminated to four individuals who served as peer reviewers. In December 2004, the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) issued a Final Information Quality Bulletin for Peer Review (OMB Bulletin) establishing peer review standards that would enhance the quality and credibility of the federal government’s scientific information. Among other information, these standards apply to Influential Scientific Information (ISI), which is information that can reasonably be determined to have a “clear and substantial impact on important public policies or private sector decisions.” The Condition Reports are considered Influential Scientific Information. For this reason, these reports are subject to the review requirements of both the Information Quality Act and the OMB Bulletin guidelines. Therefore, following the completion of every report they are reviewed by a minimum of three individuals who are considered to be experts in the field, were not involved in the development of the report, and are not Office of National Marine Sanctuaries employees. Following the External Peer Review the comments and recommendations of the reviewers were considered by sanctuary staff and incorporated, as appropriate, into a final draft document. In some cases sanctuary staff reevaluated the status and trend ratings and when appropriate, the accompanying text in the document was edited to reflect the new ratings. The comments and suggested edits that were received from the reviewers are embedded in the below draft. The final Olympic Coast NMS Condition Report may be downloaded from: http://sanctuaries.noaa.gov/. Peer Review Draft i Olympic Coast NMS Condition Report 2008 Comment [kb1]: Thank you for the opportunity to review the Olympic Coast NMS Condition Report. My comments will address a few general areas and then some specifics. Olympic Coast I found the report overall to be well researched and presented, and in particular, the environment, setting National Marine Sanctuary and natural resources of Olympic Coast NMS were very capably addressed from my perspective. Comment [kb2]: Summarizing the status and trend of a complex, multispecies system such as the Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary is a difficult task, and the authors should be commended for their efforts. The report is reasonably well Condition Report 2008 organized and thorough, and we generally agree with the OCNMS condition status findings. We do have a few comments/concerns on factual issues, inconsistencies and omissions, which are itemized below. Comment [kb3]: Overall, I think that the OCNMS has done a good job following the format and providing well-justified statements about conditions in OCNMS given the often limited data available. The collective judgments that are presented in the ratings reflect internal and external expertise, although they are by design quite broad in lumping many activities or conditions into one rating. My primary concerns are with some details and with a few issues of consistency across the report. These matters, I believe, are easily addressed in the final Conditions Report. I raise some of these comments as questions where I am seeking review of existing information to ensure accuracy. I am assuming that there will be further editing by a professional editor to deal with some awkward and run-on sentences. This document must communicate to the broad spectrum of interested parties in tribes, government agencies, and the general public. Comment [kb4]: I have gone through the OCNMS Condition Report. Very impressive document. The treatment appears to be comprehensive, thorough and accurate as far as available resources will allow. I found no glaring oversights, misstatements or interpretations that I would substantially disagree with. The document does appear to offer an accurate overview of sanctuary resources, conditions, threats and actions taken or proposed. I commend you and your colleagues on a job well done. My only regret is that I do not have more time to spend reading the document in greater detail, but my work schedule with the California mapping project simply does not allow it at this time. Comment [kb5]: a specific goal for submerged cultural resources assessment and then management is strongly recommended. This could include the preparation of a specific submerged cultural resources assessment, a detailed document similar to that prepared by the NPS and NOAA for Gulf of the Farallones NMS and its bordering NPS units, Golden Gate NRA and Point Reyes NS, in 1990. This report would detail the particulars and contexts for maritime activity in the region, vessel losses, and known encounters, impacts and archaeological activity related to submerged cultural resources at Olympic Coast NMS.

I decided on leaving them to be dealt with through the slow process of the law, as being in the end more severe than a summary infliction." L INTRODUCTION IT IS CONVENTIONAL TO SEEK THE HISTORICAL ROOTS of British Columbia labour in the colonial era, that is to say, beginning in 1849 or thereabouts. That was when Britain established Vancouver Island, its first colony on the North Pacific coast, and granted the Hudson's 1991 CanLIIDocs 164 Bay Company fee simple title on the condition that they bring out settlers.' It is a good place to begin, because the first batch of colonists were not primarily gentlemen farmers or officials but coal miners and agricultural labourers, and neither the Company nor Vancouver Island lived up to their expectations.' The miners were Scots, brought in to help the Hudson's Bay Company diversify and exploit new resources in the face of declining fur trade profits, but * Hamar Foster is an Associate Professor at the Faculty of Law, University of Victoria, teaching a variety of subjects, including legal history.

Through a close analysis of fort journals and related documents, I track the relationships between the Hudson‟s Bay Company newcomers and the Ts‟msyen peoples who lived in or around the fort. Based on the journal and some other accounts, I argue that a mutually intelligible – if not equally understood – world evolved at this site.

  • The Wilkes Exploring Expedition in the Pacific Northwest Columbia Magazine, Spring 1987: Vol
    The Wilkes Exploring Expedition in the Pacific Northwest Columbia Magazine, Spring 1987: Vol. 1, No. 1 By David M. Buerge On April 19, 1841, the men on board the United States exploring vesselsVincennes andPorpoise, two weeks out of Honolulu, felt a change in the wind. The warm air blowing up from the tropics was overwhelmed by a great surge from the north, and within 24 hours the temperature dropped 30 degrees. Only a third of the way on their journey from the Hawaiian Islands to North America, the crews already felt the continent's cold breath. Nine days later they raised Cape Disappointment, the headland at the entrance of the Columbia River. The bar spanning the river mouth was marked by an unbroken line of white breakers forbidding passage. To men grown used to the brilliant foliage of the tropics, the majestic gloom of the American coast inspired feelings of awe, but perilous as it was, the scene was a thoroughly welcome one, and it had the feeling of home. Two years and four months had passed since they had last seen the continent's shore as they sailed out of Norfolk, Virginia, to the sound of brass bands and booming cannon, full of hope and enthusiasm for the voyage they were beginning. On that languorous August day in 1838 they had been 490 officers, sailors and civilians on board a naval squadron of six sailing ships. Largest was the three-masted sloop-of- war Vincennes, the flagship of the expedition's commander , Lieutenant Charles Wilkes. Forming a lovely line behind Vincennes as they passed the Virginia capes were the storeship Relief, the brig Porpoise, the sloop-of-war Peacock, and the schooners Flying Fish and Sea Gull.
