  • Summary of 2017 Massachusetts Piping Plover Census Data
    SUMMARY OF THE 2017 MASSACHUSETTS PIPING PLOVER CENSUS Bill Byrne, MassWildlife SUMMARY OF THE 2017 MASSACHUSETTS PIPING PLOVER CENSUS ABSTRACT This report summarizes data on abundance, distribution, and reproductive success of Piping Plovers (Charadrius melodus) in Massachusetts during the 2017 breeding season. Observers reported breeding pairs of Piping Plovers present at 147 sites; 180 additional sites were surveyed at least once, but no breeding pairs were detected at them. The population increased 1.4% relative to 2016. The Index Count (statewide census conducted 1-9 June) was 633 pairs, and the Adjusted Total Count (estimated total number of breeding pairs statewide for the entire 2017 breeding season) was 650.5 pairs. A total of 688 chicks were reported fledged in 2017, for an overall productivity of 1.07 fledglings per pair, based on data from 98.4% of pairs. Prepared by: Natural Heritage & Endangered Species Program Massachusetts Division of Fisheries & Wildlife 2 SUMMARY OF THE 2017 MASSACHUSETTS PIPING PLOVER CENSUS INTRODUCTION Piping Plovers are small, sand-colored shorebirds that nest on sandy beaches and dunes along the Atlantic Coast from North Carolina to Newfoundland. The U.S. Atlantic Coast population of Piping Plovers has been federally listed as Threatened, pursuant to the U.S. Endangered Species Act, since 1986. The species is also listed as Threatened by the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife pursuant to Massachusetts’ Endangered Species Act. Population monitoring is an integral part of recovery efforts for Atlantic Coast Piping Plovers (U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 1996, Hecht and Melvin 2009a, b). It allows wildlife managers to identify limiting factors, assess effects of management actions and regulatory protection, and track progress toward recovery.

Samples were collected between 6 and 9 AM. More intensive sampling of nutrients was conducted at the three stations at two week intervals between July and August for organic nitrogen, particulate organic carbon, dissolved nitrogen, dissolved phosphorus, and chlorophyll a. Two large dairy farms are located north of the embayment along Interstate 95. The Coalition noted that nitrogen and chlorophyll a concentrations are elevated and oxygen depletion is periodically below 60% saturation.

  • 2.5 Water Transportation
    2.5 WATER TRANSPORTATION The primary form of public water transportation on Cape Cod is ferry service, carrying passengers between the mainland and the islands of Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. A significant amount of freight is carried by water transportation as well. As a result, the region’s seaports and channels are vital in addressing the economic and transportation needs of Cape Cod. 2.5.1 CAPE COD SEAPORTS Cape Cod has 586 miles of tidal coastline, with many inlets and bays that provide marine access to the land. Seaports have been constructed along several of these bays and inlets to facilitate the transfer of people and goods from water to land transportation. Significant Cape Cod seaports are recognized in reports by the Army Corps of Engineers, the agency that maintains many of them. These and other seaports are discussed in this section. 2.5.1.1 Woods Hole Harbor Woods Hole Harbor, located in Falmouth, is a primary seaport for Cape Cod. It is split into two harbors by Juniper Point: Great Harbor and Little Harbor (Figure 2 and Figure 3). Little Harbor is located in the 550,000 square feet of water between Juniper and Nobska Points. In 1906, the Army Corps of Engineers completed a 1,600 foot-long channel from the Little Harbor to Vineyard Sound, as well as a turning basin. The Coast Guard widened and deepened both projects in the 1960s to a depth of 17 feet and a width of 200 and 400 feet respectively. Located on the western side of Little Harbor is a Coast Guard station, which is also used for recreational purposes.

    SUMMARY OF 2009 CENSUS OF AMERICAN OYSTERCATCHERS IN MASSACHUSETTS Compiled by: Scott M. Melvin Natural Heritage and Endangered Species Program Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife Westborough, MA 01581 July 30, 2010 SUMMARY OF 2009 CENSUS OF AMERICAN OYSTERCATCHERS IN MASSACHUSETTS INTRODUCTION This report summarizes data collected during a statewide census of the American Oystercatcher (Haematopus palliatus) in Massachusetts during the 2009 breeding season. This census was conducted by observers affiliated with a statewide network of cooperating agencies and organizations. The American Oystercatcher is a large, strikingly colored shorebird that nests on coastal beaches along the Atlantic Coast from Maine to Florida. Although the species has expanded its range and increased in abundance in New England over the past 50 years, its range extension northward along the Atlantic Coast may well be a recolonization of formerly occupied habitat (Forbush 1912). On a continental scale, the American Oystercatcher is one of the most uncommon species of breeding shorebirds in North America and is designated a Species of High Concern in the United States Shorebird Conservation Plan (Brown et. al. 2001). METHODS Data on American Oystercatcher abundance, distribution, and reproductive success were collected by a coast-wide group of cooperators that included full-time and seasonal biologists and coastal waterbird monitors, beach managers, researchers, and volunteers. This is the same group that conducts annual censuses of Piping Plovers and terns in Massachusetts (Melvin 2010, Mostello 2010). Observers censused adult oystercatchers during or as close as possible to the designated census period of 22 - 31 May 2009, in order to minimize double-counting of birds that might move between multiple sites during the breeding season.

  • JYC 2011 Annual Cruise
    Jamestown Yacht Club 2011Annual Cruise Guide Hello and welcome to the 2011 Jamestown Yacht Club annual cruise. We expect a wonderful trip into Buzzards Bay, through the Cape Cod Canal, and onto Provincetown, Massachusetts. This document is your reference for the cruise. The goal is to provide information and structure, but you can of course set your own schedule. Our motto this year is "TideTide waits for no man!man!!!!!". It was planned so we could have favorable current through the canal. A special thanks to Vic Calabretta for his help on this critical part. Our fleet consists of 10 boats and 23 sailors. Everybody is welcome and everybody is included. Its likely that not all will want to do the same thing at the same time. We will have several happy hours and are planning two events in Provincetown. One is a whale watch tour and the other is a scavenger hunt. We traditionally have one night out for a nice dinner. We encourage everyone to participate, but respect if you want to go off on your own. If you have any questions please email me at [email protected] . While underway I will be monitoring Channel 16 and on the top of each hour we will broadcast on Channel 72. We look forward to sailing with you and very happy that you are part of this great adventure. Edward Doherty Sailing Vessel "Patriot" JYC Cruising Chair Boat Name Manuf.

  • Massdot Is Committed to Improving the Quality of Stormwater Runoff from Its Highways
    MassDOT is committed to improving the quality of stormwater runoff from its highways. Through the “Impaired Waters Program,” MassDOT addresses stormwater runoff from its roadways draining to impaired water bodies as part of compliance with the NPDES Phase II Small MS4 General Permit. Stormwater best management practices (BMPs) are implemented to the maximum extent practicable through two methods: retrofit projects and programmed projects. Retrofit projects are tracked within the MassDOT Impaired Waters Program Database, while programmed projects are tracked through this Water Quality Data Form (WQDF). The goal of the WQDF is to raise awareness of the necessity to implement stormwater BMPs during programmed projects and to capture information about stormwater BMPs that are implemented. There are two WQDFs required as part of each programmed project. One is specific to the 25% design stage, and the other is specific to the 75% design stage. Please download the latest version of the WQDF from the MassDOT website. Please fill out the tab titled “75% Design Form,” and check the box at the bottom of the form to ensure that all questions have been answered adequately. Please submit this form in Excel format only and name your file with the convention WQDF25_projectnumber.xlsm. Submit the form to your MassDOT project manager as part of the project's electronic submittal. An interactive web map is available to aid in filling out the WQDF. It is available at http://mass.gov/massdot/map/wqdf. If MassDOT has requested that the form be revised and resubmitted, resubmit the form using the naming convention WQDF75_projectnumber_rev.xlsm.
