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.

  • SEAFARING WOMEN: an Investigation of Material Culture for Potential Archaeological Diagnostics of Women on Nineteenth-Century Sailing Ships
    SEAFARING WOMEN: An Investigation of Material Culture for Potential Archaeological Diagnostics of Women on Nineteenth-Century Sailing Ships by R. Laurel Seaborn April, 2014 Director of Thesis/Dissertation: Dr. Lynn Harris Major Department: Department of History, Program in Maritime Studies ABSTRACT During the 19th century, women went to sea on sailing ships. Wives and family accompanied captains on their voyages from New England. They wrote journals and letters that detailed their life on board, adventures in foreign ports, and feelings of separation from family left behind. Although the women kept separate from the sailors as class and social status dictated, they contributed as nannies, nurses and navigators when required. Examination of the historical documents, ship cabin plans, and photos of those interiors, as well as looking at surviving ships, such as the whaleship Charles W. Morgan, provided evidence of the objects women brought and used on board. The investigation from a gendered perspective of the extant material culture, and shipwreck site reports laid the groundwork for finding potential archaeological diagnostics of women living on board.

The National Park Service also manages a 14th shipwreck area in the waters around Isle Royale, located in western Lake Superior, about 70 miles northwest of Houghton. Dense fog and high traffic, for instance, has led to ship-to-ship collisions, while sudden lake gales have capsized vessels or pushed them off-course and aground on shallow reefs and rocky outcrops. There are no places ships can duck out of a storm, and many have gone down. Wilde dives many of the wrecks along the eastern portion of Shipwreck Coast, especially those within the square-mile Whitefish Point Underwater Preserve. Today, divers visit about two dozen shipwrecks there. Many wrecks found in Great Lakes preserves lie on the bottom between feet and feet deep. But shallower wrecks dot the shoreline on all three lakes. Found in 60 feet of water or less, they appeal to recreational divers, according to Bloomfield. Several dozen wrecks are even shallow enough for snorkelers. One popular wreck in Whitefish Bay is the wooden steamer Yosemite, which sank in Located about 10 miles south of Paradise and a mile from shore, it rests in a mere 10 feet of water, and its boilers reach to just below the surface. One of the more harrowing Shipwreck Coast tales, according to Wilde, is that of the Nelson, a three-masted schooner that was caught in a gale in Whipped with mile-per-hour winds and pelted with freezing rain, the ship became encased in ice.
