2012 ANNUAL REPORT FROM THE PRESIDENT AND CHAIR

The Buzzards Bay Coalition’s 25th year found us right where our founders would have wanted us: deep in the trenches working to protect and restore this ever-magical but increasingly threatened Bay and its watershed. And thanks to the outstanding support of you – our members and friends – we think they’d be proud of the scale and depth of the Coalition’s programs and accomplishments. While the challenges facing Buzzards Bay – most importantly nitrogen pollution – are increasing, one critical fact remains: the threats to our region’s waters and lands are primarily local. They are within our power to ignore or tackle, to accept or change. That fact more than any other keeps us excited and empowered in our work. It’s also at the core of the Coalition’s strength and effectiveness. It took generations to create the land development patterns that have led to the overpollution of our Bay and its harbors with nitrogen. And the fix – changes in town infrastructure, financing, and improved planning – will take another generation for Bay communities to fully absorb. But like the global threat of climate change, ignoring our local nitrogen problem and avoiding the hard work ahead will only make restoration more difficult, more expensive and potentially less successful. So the time to act is now. And that is what the Coalition is doing through legal action, advocacy with public officials, and pushing for quicker delivery of sound science and concrete cleanup. Our major federal lawsuits against the U.S. EPA are forcing officials to deal with septic systems on Cape Cod; our legal challenge and eventual Settlement Agreement with the town of Falmouth and the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection put West Falmouth Harbor, after more than a decade of pressure, on a clear path to recovery; and our watchdogging of long-delayed Massachusetts Estuaries Project reports for harbors from Dartmouth to Wareham all reflect the significant investments we’ve made in aggressive advocacy this past year. But legal advocacy is only one facet of our strategy. Proactive land conservation to acquire the watershed’s most important forests and wetlands is critical – both for preserving natural, nitrogen-absorbing landscapes and for maintaining healthy river and coastal ecosystems for wildlife and fish. To that end, we permanently preserved another 470 acres in 2012. These lands – clustered around the Bay’s most important rivers – bring the total amount of land we’ve saved to 6,250 acres since we began this program in 1998.

2012 also saw dramatic growth in our work to inspire, excite and engage many, many more people in Bay protection. Saving Buzzards Bay is multigenerational work and the victories of today will need watchdogging tomorrow. Joining us in this effort are the more than 4,000 area youth who participated in our year-round field education programs, the 1,000 people who came out for the Buzzards Bay Film Festival, and the hundreds that flexed their muscle and passion in outdoor events like our Swim and Watershed Ride that celebrate everyone’s right to a clean environment. The pages of this Annual Report provide an all-too-short glimpse into the daily work of our talented staff, dedicated Board and tireless volunteers. But the most important players are you – our growing family of members and supporters – who make it all possible. You continue to amaze us with your generosity, your enthusiastic impatience for more action, and most importantly, your vision for the future of our local environment. We’re excited for the work ahead. Thank you!

Mark Rasmussen Tom Gidwitz President/Buzzards Baykeeper Chair, Board of Directors Issue Highlight: Why is New Bedford Harbor getting one of the worst cleanups in America?

No corner of Buzzards Bay has suffered more damage than New Bedford Harbor. It is the Bay’s largest urban waterway, home to more than one hundred thousand residents and the United States’ richest commercial fishing port. It is also heavily contaminated with cancer-causing toxins called PCBs, ongoing raw sewage discharges, and too much nitrogen.

For decades, toxic pollution in particular has deprived the New Bedford Under the EPA’s cleanup plan, these signs community of its greatest natural asset: its Harbor. Now, after years of may never come down. waiting, New Bedford Harbor still isn’t getting the cleanup it deserves. The Coalition has always been an active advocate for the Harbor, but we significantly ramped up our efforts in October 2012, when the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced an inadequate $366 million settlement with AVX Corporation, the largest company responsible for the Harbor’s PCB pollution. Although this figure sounds like a lot of money, the settlement is a bad deal for the New Bedford community. Under the settlement – a fixed amount that allows AVX to walk away forever – the EPA will be locked into cleanup choices that put cost savings ahead of harbor health and the public good. New Bedford Harbor is slated to receive one of the worst PCB cleanups of its kind in America, with up to fifty times more toxic pollution left behind than in similar waterway cleanups. In response, we mobilized more than a dozen elected officials and over 2,000 community members to join our call for a full cleanup of New Bedford Harbor. The settlement comes at a critical point for the Harbor, where the tide is turning for a long-neglected waterway. Along its shores, developers are transforming old factories into new waterfront loft homes. Abandoned spaces are being re-imagined as public parks where families can enjoy nature, right in their own urban backyard. Active citizens row the Harbor’s waters, taking back a waterway that residents have been robbed of for far too long. The New Bedford community deserves a Harbor cleanup that will protect the health of its residents, provide a safe home for fish and wildlife, and preserve its coastal heritage for future generations. That vision for the future can – and will – be a reality if we fight today for a full cleanup.

2 | BUZZARDS BAY COALITION Baykeeper® Advocacy

On July 30, 2012, as the R/V Baykeeper® cruised towards its monitoring station in Mark’s Cove in Wareham, Coalition Senior Attorney Korrin Petersen noticed the water taking on a murky, rusty color. She snapped a picture and shared it with the Coalition’s science staff, who agreed that this was likely the season’s first reported sighting of “rusty tide”: an algae bloom caused by nitrogen pollution and warm water. 2012 was the eighth straight year that rusty tide was reported in Buzzards Bay, but the first time it was seen as early as July. By the end of the summer, rusty tide sightings were reported in towns from Dartmouth to Falmouth, covering more of the Bay than ever before.

The fact that rusty tide is becoming routine and coves are not so lucky. Five of the Bay’s estuaries – the widespread is more evidence of the serious threat that Wareham River, Slocums River, Apponagansett Bay, nitrogen pollution poses in Buzzards Bay. The severity New Bedford Harbor, and Nasketucket Bay – have of the problem is well-documented by over twenty been waiting as long as nine years for final nitrogen years of comprehensive water quality data collected pollution studies to be released by the Massachusetts through our Baywatchers program.

4 | BUZZARDS BAY COALITION Watershed Protection

Clean water doesn’t just happen. The technology to produce clean water with filters, pumps, and chemicals can easily cost millions. Or you can do it the old-fashioned way: with a healthy, vibrant watershed that provides our communities with clean water for drinking, swimming and fishing. Protecting watersheds means protecting forests that absorb rainwater and recharge groundwater aquifers, wetlands that filter pollutants and reduce flooding, and plants and animals along our rivers and coastlines that naturally consume the nitrogen that fouls the Bay. In 2012, to ensure clean water for our communities and for Buzzards Bay, the Coalition permanently preserved 470 acres of land and advanced projects to restore rivers and wetlands across the region.

In Mattapoisett, we worked with the Mattapoisett downstream at the Acushnet Sawmill received $1.2 Land Trust to permanently protect 300 acres of coastal million in funding from the New Bedford Harbor forest, wetlands, and streams that flow into Pine Island Trustee Council. With that funding, the Coalition Pond and outer Mattapoisett Harbor. In Dartmouth, hired ecological restoration scientists and engineers the Coalition partnered with the Lloyd Center for the to manage the project, which will remove acres of Environment and the Dartmouth Natural Resources pavement, restore wetlands, reestablish riverbank Trust to protect 26 stunningly scenic acres along the vegetation, and create public walking trails and a canoe Little River Estuary. And in preparation for what is launch. The Sawmill will open to the public in 2014. the largest coastal land protection project underway in In February, the Coalition added another 63 acres to Massachusetts, the Coalition received a $2,000,000 our Mattapoisett River Reserve, expanding to over 350 grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture towards acres of lush forests, freshwater wetlands – including a the protection of 400 acres of land along Nasketucket retired cranberry bog – and walking trails for the public Bay. In addition to protecting coastal land, the Coalition to enjoy. Conserving this land protects a drinking water also helped residents in Falmouth advance a project to aquifer serving five Bay communities and provides an restore three salt ponds that have been overtaken by opportunity to restore a more natural flow of water into invasive species. This project will restore habitat and the Mattapoisett River and Buzzards Bay. protect water quality on the Cape Cod coast. Equally important to protecting coastal lands is the protection of the forests, wetlands and stream buffers along the Bay’s tributaries. Along the Weweantic, Acushnet and Mattapoisett rivers in 2012, we protected land, advanced restoration and invited the public to explore these special places by opening three River Reserves. In Wareham, two major land protection projects formed the cornerstone of the Weweantic River Reserve. The Coalition protected 10 acres along the lowerPalmer’s Weweantic, Island where the river meets the salty waters of Buzzards Bay. Further upstream in West Marsh Island Wareham, the Coalition, along with the Wareham Land Trust and the town of Wareham, protected 20 acres of pine and oak forest along the river.

6 | BUZZARDS BAY COALITION EDUCATION AND PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT

“Dear Buzzards Bay, thank you for letting boats float, letting fish swim, and letting us swim in you. I will pick up all the trash in you.” This was the message delivered by a nine-year-old New Bedford girl who attends afterschool at the YMCA. Like her peers, she initially knew very little about Buzzards Bay, but after five weeks exploring the Bay and its watershed with the Coalition, her appreciation – and her sense of responsibility – speaks for itself.

The spirit of appreciation and enjoyment of Buzzards The festival included the popular Cellphone Cinema Bay was the theme of 2012 as the Coalition celebrated contest, in which residents submitted short videos our 25th anniversary.

Through our programs, children explored beaches in Falmouth, marshes in Wareham, forests in Mattapoisett, and went quahogging in New Bedford’s Clarks Cove. We also offered our first week-long Bay stewardship camp in partnership with YMCA Southcoast, where campers explored the Mattapoisett River from its headwaters to Buzzards Bay.

On May 22, 2012, the Buzzards Bay Coalition hosted its first ever Golf Outing in partnership with the Bay Club at Mattaposiett, raising over $36,000 to fund clean water projects that reduce nitrogen pollution in New Bedford Harbor. Sixty-eight golfers enjoyed 18 holes on this picturesque, ‘International Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program’ certified course followed by a cocktail party reception and auction at the Bay Club’s Golf House Restaurant. The fundraiser included a live auction led by guest auctioneer, and former New Bedford Mayor, John Bullard. Citizens Bank served as a lead sponsor for the event.

Twenty-fourth Annual Meeting The 24th Annual Meeting of the Buzzards Bay Coalition on May 10, 2012 at the Kittansett Club in Marion was a celebration of the organization’s work in 2011 and the contributions of three community members who received Buzzards Bay Guardian Awards. The Coalition recognized Simone Bourgeois of New Bedford Public Schools Sea Lab for over 40 years of Bay stewardship education, Mack Phinney for his tremendous leadership on education and restoration projects in Wareham, and Dick Payne for leading a saltmarsh restoration project at Little Sippewisset Marsh in Falmouth. The Coalition also honored Dexter Cate and Rhea Teves-Cate as volunteers of the year for their work as educational docents, event volunteers, and office support. The meeting concluded with a talk and discussion by Dr. Joe Costa, Executive Director of the Buzzards Bay National Estuary Program since 1989, who discussed how the effort to Save Buzzards Bay has changed over the past 25 years and the impact of today’s expanding nitrogen pollution problem.

2012 Annual Report | 23 TREASURER’S REPORT FISCAL YEAR 2012 (JULY 1, 2011-JUNE 30, 2012)

Having closed our very successful Campaign for Buzzards Bay in 2011, the Buzzards Bay Coalition is pleased to reflect a year of continued growth and financial stability. As of June 30, 2012, the Coalition’s net assets were $8.9 million, compared to pre-campaign net assets of $3.3 million thanks to a broad base of generous supporters. More important, with expanded infrastructure and endowment as well as new programs we have greatly increased the resources we bring to bear to tackle the challenges that face Buzzards Bay. As expected following a capital campaign, overall donations decreased this year by about 30%, but support for operations continued a growth trend, with membership and annual fund income increasing by more than 35% from the prior year. The annual Buzzards Bay Swim and Watershed Ride events also generated 70% more revenue than the prior year, with the important added benefit of engaging hundreds of people with their irreplaceable Bay and watershed. Expenses for the year increased as well, a reflection of growth in our work to protect and restore Buzzards Bay. The Coalition has a very capable and dedicated staff and most generous supporters. This is a very dynamic and exciting organization. I am very confident we will continue to be a strong force for the Bay’s preservation. Copies of audited financial statements are available upon request.
