    Proposed Wisconsin – Lake Michigan National Marine Sanctuary Draft Environmental Impact Statement and Draft Management Plan DECEMBER 2016 | sanctuaries.noaa.gov/wisconsin/ National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) U.S. Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker Under Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and Atmosphere and NOAA Administrator Kathryn D.

Credit: Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution - Advanced Imaging and Visualization Laboratory. 1 Abstract In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA, 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.) and the National Marine Sanctuaries Act (NMSA, 16 U.S.C. 1434 et seq.), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Office of National Marine Sanctuaries (ONMS) has prepared a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) that considers alternatives for the proposed designation of Wisconsin - Lake Michigan as a National Marine Sanctuary. The proposed action addresses NOAA’s responsibilities under the NMSA to identify, designate, and protect areas of the marine and Great Lakes environment with special national significance due to their conservation, recreational, ecological, historical, scientific, cultural, archaeological, educational, or aesthetic qualities as national marine sanctuaries. ONMS has developed five alternatives for the designation, and the DEIS evaluates the environmental consequences of each under NEPA. The DEIS also serves as a resource assessment under the NMSA, documenting present and potential uses of the areas considered in the alternatives.

  • O. O. Mcintyre Broadway Populist 79
    o. o. mcintyre broadway populist e. I. huddleston Editors and publishers given to exploiting the nostalgia craze might consider resurrecting Odd (pronounced "Ud") Mcintyre, for his appeal would be broad. Many Americans under fifty would laugh at how his kitsch could enjoy the widespread acceptance it did; those over fifty would relish meeting an old acquaintance on a sentimental journey to yesteryear; and students of mass culture, regardless of age, would find clues in his enormous popularity to help explain a persistent naivete in those citizens Mencken characterized as the "booboisie" and who today go as middle America or the "new majority." In the two decades between World Wars Oscar Odd Mcintyre sus­ tained a formula with his 800-word column "New York Day by Day" that made him the highest paid and the "most widely enjoyed newspaper feature writer of his time," reaching (as a conservative estimate) over seven million readers daily and Sunday.1 Additionally, his monthly piece for Cosmopolitan ran from 1922 to his death in 1938, and his "best" columns and essays were gathered into four books in the 1920's and '30's. Warner Brothers even planned a movie based on his life, which his sudden death aborted.2 Amid the turbulence of the Jazz Age human interest reporting seemed to most editors the surest bet for building circulation amid tough competition, and columnists became national institutions. Among the leaders—Arthur Brisbane ("Today"), Franklin P. Adams ("The Conning Tower"), Christopher Morley ("Bowling Green"), Heywood Broun ("It Seems To Me")—Mcintyre occupied a prominent if not wholly deserved place.
