    A LATE MARITIME WOODLAND PESKOTOMUHKATI FISHERY FROM THE MAINLAND QUODDY REGION, SOUTHWESTERN NEW BRUNSWICK, CANADA by W. Jesse Webb B.A. (Hons.), Anthropology, 2009 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate Academic Unit of Anthropology Supervisors: Susan E. Blair, Ph.D, Anthropology, Chair Matthew W. Betts, Ph.D, Anthropology Examining Board: Darcy J. Dignam, M.A., Anthropology Richard A. Cunjak, Ph.D., Biology This thesis is accepted by the Dean of Graduate Studies THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW BRUNSWICK April 2018 © William Jesse Webb, 2018 ABSTRACT The nature of precontact Indigenous fisheries and their significance to subsistence economies, seasonal mobility, and diachronic cultural change remain underdeveloped in the archaeology of the Maritime Peninsula, northeastern North America. This thesis presents an analysis of a precontact fishery from BgDs-15, a small shell-bearing site located on the northern mainland of Passamaquoddy Bay, southwestern New Brunswick, Canada. Several hundred bones recovered during the 2004 field excavations and over 3,000 fish remains from midden column and bulk feature samples were examined. Most of these fish bones are attributable to Atlantic tomcod (Microgadus tomcod Walbaum, 1792) and unidentified, tomcod-sized gadids, with some herring (Clupeidae) present. Multiple lines of complementary evidence, including taxonomic composition, relative abundances, skeletal element frequency, seasonality, and the ethnohistoric record were examined to produce a high-resolution analysis of the BgDs-15 fishery and provide insight into ancestral Peskotomuhkati settlement-subsistence strategies during the Late Maritime Woodland period (ca. 1350–550 BP). ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The process of developing this thesis has, on the one hand, been the ideal of curiosity-driven academic research and, on the other, a Sisyphean personal struggle.

Introduction and Recent History Natural tidal flow to the salt marshes on the West Branch of the Pleasant River was shut off in 1940 by the installation of a “clapper dam” at its mouth. Deprived of tidal flow the former salt marsh ceased to perform its role at the head of the food chain in the Pleasant River estuary and became overgrown with fresh water species of vegetation. Since their construction the tide gates have failed several times and required frequent and expensive repairs. In 1998 the Maine DOT carried out a major renovation. During the same period of time land owners along the Branch asked the Town of Addison to con- sider removing the tide gates and restoring the historic salt marshes.

  • Maine Coastal Nesting Islands Gulf of Maine
    U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Update Maine Coastal Nesting Islands Maine's coastal islands provide a rich tapestry of habitats harboring a unique Gulf of Maine assemblage of wildlife. Maine islands represent the only breeding sites in the United Coastal Program States for Atlantic puffins and razorbills. With the possible exception of a few islands south of the state, Maine islands provide black guillemots, Leach's storm petrels and common eiders their southernmost breeding territories. Some islands support rare birds such as bald eagles, peregrine falcons and roseate terns. Many islands and their associated mudflats are used for feeding and resting by Atlantic brant and large numbers of migrating waterfowl and shorebirds. Islands also provide important habitat for neotropical migratory birds. Today, as development spreads along the eastern seaboard, islands are becoming more important than ever for supporting bird populations, but islands are also attracting increased attention from potential human users. Disturbances associated with second home developments and subdivisions, timber harvesting, recreational use and aquaculture ventures are increasing, and sometimes threaten critical island habitat. In the early to mid-1990s, federal, state and local conservation partners worked together to update information on nationally significant coastal nesting islands. Gulf of Maine Coastal Program biologists analyzed existing data on nesting seabirds, wading birds and bald eagles for Maine's 3,500 coastal islands and ledges, ultimately identifying 377 nationally significant islands, based on the diversity and/or abundance of nesting birds. About half of the islands are owned by conservation organizations, but the remaining half do not enjoy any form of permanent protection.

  • Notice of Emergency Rulemaking
    MAPA-4 NOTICE OF AGENCY EMERGENCY RULE-MAKING AGENCY: Department of Marine Resources CHAPTER NUMBER AND TITLE: Chapter 11.08, Targeted Closures: (7) Upper Englishman Bay RA; (8) Addison RA; (11) Cobscook, Whiting & Dennys Bays; (12) Upper Frenchman Bay; (13) Damariscotta River LAA; and (14) West Casco Bay CONCISE SUMMARY: The Commissioner adopts this emergency rulemaking to establish scallop conservation closures in Cobscook, Whiting and Dennys Bays, Upper Frenchman’s Bay, Damariscotta River and western Casco Bay; and, to expand existing closures in Englishman Bay and Addison rotational areas. In Cobscook, Whiting and Dennys Bays, there is an exception to the conservation closure to allow the harvest of scallops by drag on Monday, February 15, 2021 and to allow the harvest of scallops by diving on Saturday, February 20, 2021. The Department is concerned that continued harvesting for the remainder of the 2020-2021 fishing season in these areas will reduce scallop broodstock further, as well as jeopardize sublegal scallops that were observed in the 2020 Spring Scallop survey that is essential to the ongoing recruitment, regrowth and recovery of the scallop resource. An immediate conservation closure is necessary to reduce the risk of unusual damage and imminent depletion of the scallop resource in these six scallop resource areas. For these reasons, the Commissioner hereby adopts an emergency closure of Maine’s scallop fishery in these areas as authorized by 12 M.R.S. §6171(3)(A). EFFECTIVE DATE: February 14, 2021 AGENCY CONTACT PERSON: Melissa Smith (207-441-5040) AGENCY NAME: Department of Marine Resources ADDRESS: State House Station 21 Augusta, Maine 04333-0021 WEB SITE: http://www.maine.gov/dmr/rulemaking/ E-MAIL: [email protected] FAX: (207) 624-6024 TTY: (888) 577-6690 (Deaf/Hard of Hearing) DEPARTMENT OF MARINE RESOURCES Chapter 11 11.08 Targeted Scallop Conservation Closures Targeted closures are imposed as conservation measures to assist in rebuilding specific areas of the state.

  • Eelgrass Metadata on Northeast Ocean
    Eelgrass Beds Northeast United States November 29, 2017 Prepared for: Northeast Regional Ocean Council (NROC) www.northeastoceandata.org Updated by: Emily Shumchenia Northeast Ocean Data Portal Working Group from original July 1, 2014 version by: Kate Longley SeaPlan 1. INTRODUCTION Eelgrass (Zostera marina) beds are critical wetlands components of shallow coastal ecosystems throughout the region. Eelgrass beds provide food and cover for a great variety of commercially and recreationally important fauna and their prey. Eelgrass and other seagrasses are often referred to as "Submerged Aquatic Vegetation" or SAV. This distinguishes them from algae, which are not classified as "plants" by biologists (rather they are often placed in the kingdom protista), and distinguishes them from the "emergent" saltwater plants found in salt marshes. In addition to the term SAV, some coastal managers use the term SRV or submerged rooted vegetation. EelgrassBeds was created from five separate datasets for the states of Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine. Where possible, polygon datasets depicting the most recent eelgrass surveys were used. Attributes with common themes for each dataset were integrated in order to better represent eelgrass density and year sampled. The data user is encouraged to read this and the metadata of each individual state’s data carefully, as geometry, attribute details, and timeliness are not necessarily consistent among datasets used to develop this layer. Details of each state’s data source are described in the data processing section. 2. PURPOSE The purpose of mapping the distribution of eelgrass (Submerged Aquatic Vegetation - SAV) is to determine areas where eelgrass is present throughout coastal New England waters in order to support coastal and ocean planning.
