That’s because awaiting coverage were the topics of Propulsion, Lubri- cants, Fire & Safety, Workboat Repair and our annual look at North America’s all-important fourth coast – the Great Lakes. Not to worry. This edition contains all of that and more, much of which emanates from a focused trip to the Port of Cleveland, Ohio. There is a great deal happening on the Great Lakes. Beyond that, a great deal more in poten- tial commerce is lurking just over the horizon. At the Port of Cleveland, William D. Friedman has his port on the right course for what comes next, including the re-introduction of box ship- ping to the region and the exciting advent of offshore wind. The latter development involves [email protected] the culmination of almost ten years of sweat equity by local stakeholders that looks set to bear fruit, possibly by the end of this year. Friedman, recently named 2018-19 chairman of the American Association of Port Authori- ties (AAPA), has a full agenda ahead of him as he looks to grow his intermodal hub while at the same time helping to drive AAPA’s infrastructure funding advocacy. That’s no small task. Hence, and while his selection as our INSIGHTS Q&A featured executive should come as no surprise to MarineNews readers, what he has to say about the future of the Great Lakes just might. And, while Friedman’s offi ces may have been our fi rst stop in the Rock & Roll Capital of the World, it certainly wasn’t our last. At the Great Lakes Group – the largest operator of assist tugs in the vast fi ve lake region – it quickly became apparent that no one in the Cleveland maritime cluster sitting on their hands. Great Lakes Group President Joseph Starck presides over a myriad of small but regionally critical fi rms, whose missions span the gamut from ship repair, newbuild construction, ship as- sist tug work, line handling, subchapter M expertise and, believe it or not – icebreaking. Starck, now engaged in the modernization of his considerable fl eet of 30 vessels, also has a weather eye on the possible emergence of local offshore wind operations. Already operating in 11 ports between Duluth and Buffalo, no one else is arguably better positioned to service any and all aspects of what comes next. That story begins on page 34. Circling back to the fi rst sentence of this missive, I suddenly realize that my initial fears were completely unfounded. It turns out that propulsion, lubricants (inside you’ll see that there’s more than one way to get to the Promised Land), shafts, seals and bearings and the Great Lakes all have one thing in common: the environment and the regulatory machine that protects it. Touching on each and every one of these bullets within the confi nes of a 64-page folio wasn’t easy, but it does make perfect sense. See if you don’t agree.

  • The Great Lakes Group and Its Affiliated Companies Are Committed to Policies and New Equipment That Support a Sustainable Environment
    Est. 1899 THETHE GREAGREATT LAKESLAKES GROUPGROUP October 2013 THE OLD SHIPYARD __________ THE NEW SHIPYARD The new temporary white Shipyard building was completed February 1, 2012 involved a company investment of $500,000, required 1,700 construction hours, and will create approximately 40 new full-time local jobs. The temporary building will be replaced in Phase IV by a 65,000 square foot permanent production facility with the goal of a 100-person sustainable work force. Supplemental berthing on the Cuyahoga River has been used for performing winter work maintenance and repairs to various lake carriers (e.g., M/V BUFFALO in Winter 2011-2012 and M/V AMERICAN COURAGE and S/S ALPENA in Winter 2012-2013). October 7, 2013 ABOUT OUR NEW SHIPYARD Great Lakes Shipyard, a division of The Great Lakes Towing Company, operates a full-service shipyard with a 770-ton Travelift and a drydock in Cleveland which specializes in all types of marine construction and repairs for vessels, tugs, supply boats, ferries, barges, excursion vessels, dinner boats, research vessels, large yachts, and off-site topside work of every kind. The Company and its Shipyard are “small businesses.” Located on a former underutilized “superfund” site in Wards 3 and 15, both are federally-designated HUB Zones in inner-city Cleveland with continuing high unemployment and under employment. A recent Shipyard Expansion Project was envisaged to take advantage of Cleveland’s central location on the Great Lakes; its great port and river; opportunities to expand our skilled manpower pool utilizing local schools and colleges; availability of underdeveloped and under-utilized land; and our conviction that by utilizing advanced technology, we could diversify and meet the competitive manufacturing challenges of the next century.

  • (Cladophorales, Chlorophyta) in North America by Sa
    Molecular Phylogeography and Species Discrimination of Freshwater Cladophora (Cladophorales, Chlorophyta) in North America by Sara J. Ross A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfilment of the thesis requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biology Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2006 ©Sara J. Ross 2006 I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required finalrevisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii ABSTRACT Cladophora is a widespread freshwater filamentous cholorophyte genus and is frequently observed in eutrophic waters where it can produce large nuisance blooms. These blooms can have direct impacts on water intake for power generation, irrigation canals and can be aesthetically unpleasant. Much of the ecological and physiological studies on Cladophora have assumed that the populations of this genus in North America belong to the species Cladophora glomerata. However, this has never been tested despite that it is well- documented that identifying freshwater Cladophora to the species level is difficult due morphological variability under different ecological conditions. In addition, the species epithets for freshwater Cladophora are based on European collections and it is not clear if these should be applied to North America. This study examines approximately 40 collections of Cladophora from the Laurentian Great Lakes and 43 from various locations in North America ranging from the Northwest Territories to Puerto Rico. Initially we determined the nucleotide sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the nuclear ribosomal cistron and observed sequence divergence to be low (0-3%), demonstrating an inability for this marker to resolve species delineation as divergence of this region was low.
