Arter BSA Environmental Consulting And Barbara Snapp, Ph. D. January 2006 Sponsored By The Narraguagus River Watershed Council Funded By The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation Narraguagus River Water Quality Monitoring Plan Preface In an effort to enhance water quality monitoring (WQM) coordination among agencies and conservation organizations, the Project SHARE Research and Management Committee initiated a program whereby river-specific WQM Plans are developed for Maine rivers that currently contain Atlantic salmon populations listed in the Endangered Species Act. The Sheepscot River WQM Plan was the first plan to be developed under this initiative. It was developed between May 2003 and June 2004. The Action Items were finalized and the document signed in March 2005 (Arter, 2005). The Narraguagus River WQM Plan is the second such plan and was produced by a workgroup comprised of representatives from both state and federal government agencies and several conservation organizations (see Acknowledgments). The purpose of this plan is to characterize current WQM activities, describe current water quality trends, identify the role of each monitoring agency, and make recommendations for future monitoring. The project was funded by the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation.

Over 120 estuaries are included (Appendix 3), representing over 90 percent of the estuarine surface water and freshwater inflow to the coastal regions of the contiguous United States. Each estuary is defined spatially by an estuarine drainage area (EDA)—the land and water area of a watershed that directly affects the estuary. The EDAs provide a framework for organizing information and for conducting analyses between and among systems. To date, ORCA has compiled a broad base of descriptive and analytical information for the NEI. Descriptive topics include physical and hydrologic characteristics, distribution and abundance of selected fishes and inver- tebrates, trends in human population, building permits, coastal recreation, coastal wetlands, classified shellfish growing waters, organic and inorganic pollutants in fish tissues and sediments, point and nonpoint pollution for selected parameters, and pesticide use. Analytical topics include relative susceptibility to nutrient discharges, structure and variability of salinity, habitat suitability modeling, and socioeconomic assessments. For a list of publications or more information about the NEI, contact C. John Klein, Chief, Physical Environ- ments Characterization Branch, at the address below.

More than 70 marine, estuarine, and diadromous species are harvested commercially, caught by saltwater anglers, or reared by aquaculture. Maine ranked second in value of marine resources landed in commercial fisheries in 2005 in the Northeast Region (Maine-Virginia). Landings were stable in 2005 at about 263 million pounds with a value of $413 million (APPENDIX 1, Figures 1 & 2). Lobster continued to be the most valuable species landed in the region and the state with Maine accounting for 77% of the revenues ($312 million) from the 2005 lobster harvest (APPENDIX 1, Table 1). Other species of importance include the groundfish complex, soft-shell clam, Atlantic herring, sea urchin, and blood worm Maine’s saltwater recreational fishery is valued in excess of $27 million by about 362,000 anglers as striped bass and other species have rebounded.

No general list of Maine shells—including land, fresh-water and marine species—-has been published since 1843, when Dr. J. W. Mighels’ list was printed in the Boston Journal of Natural History. Dr. Mighels may be called the “Pioneer” conchologist of Maine. By profession a physician, in his leisure hours he was a most enthusiastic collector and student of all forms of molluscan life. Enthusiasm such as his was “contagious” and he soon had gathered about him a little band of active students and collectors. Of these Capt. Walden of the U. S. Revenue Cutter “Morris” was dredging in deep water and exploring the eastern shores and among the islands, and “by his zeal procured many rare species;” Dr.
