Publication of this Document approved by the Supervisor of Administration. Stye Comtnontoeoltt) of Jtla00acl)U0ett0. REPORT. To the Honorable the Senate and House of Representatives of the Common- wealth of Massachusetts. The Commission on Waterways and Public Lands, pursuant to the provisions of law, respectfully submits its first annual report, covering the period from Aug. 3, 1916, to Nov. 30, 1916, and including the doings of the Directors of the Port of Boston and of the Board of Harbor and Land Commissioners from Dec. 1, 1915, to Aug. 3, 1916, to whose powers and duties the Commission succeeded under the provisions of chapter 288 of the General Acts of 1916. In presenting this report it would seem not out of place to briefly review the organization of the different departments of public service which have been consolidated under the present Commission. The Board of Harbor and Land Commissioners, created under chapter 263 of the Acts of 1879, provided in itself a consolida- tion of the departments of service which had, under the titles of Board of Harbor Commissioners, Board of Land Commis- sioners, and other agencies, exercised the powers and duties with which they were charged with respect to the lands, rights in lands, flats, shores and rights in tidewaters belonging to the Commonwealth up to that time. The personnel of the original Board of Harbor Commis- sioners, established by chapter 149 of the Acts of 1866, was such as to create a viewpoint from which not only that Board worked out wisely and efficiently the important functions en- trusted to it, but likewise a viewpoint from which the later Boards and Commissions have worked out problems that have come in the succeeding years. 4 WATERWAYS AND PUBLIC LANDS. [Jan. The various members of the Board of Harbor and Land Com- missioners during the period 1879-1916, inclusive, were: — Albert Mason (chairman), 1879-1882 Willard P. Phillips, 1879-1881 Francis A. Nye, 1879-1883 Henry L. Whiting, 1881-1884 John E. Sanford (chairman), . ' . 1882-1891 John I. Baker, 1883-1897 Joseph K. Baker, 1884-1886 Charles H. Howland, 1886-1898 Henry W.

Harlow, 1914-1916 Beginning with the discharge of its duties, which in 1879 were largely confined to dredging operations in Boston Harbor; the reclamation, improvement and development of the terri- tory commonly known as the South Boston Flats; the sale, following reclamation, of the Back Bay lands in Boston; and other important transactions, the scope of this Board's work, by legislative enactments and otherwise has been consider- ably increased, and its jurisdiction, originally limited almost exclusively to projects previously defined above, extended, up to the establishment of the Commission on Waterways and Public Lands, to the Connecticut River; to the non- tidal part of the Merrimac River; to great ponds belonging to the Commonwealth; to the allotment of funds placed at its disposal by the Legislature for river and harbor improvements, and to other matters.

  • Massachusetts Commercial Fishing Port Profiles
    MASSACHUSETTS COMMERCIAL FISHING PORT PROFILES The Massachusetts Commercial Fishing Port Profiles were developed through a collaboration between the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries, the University of Massachusetts Boston’s Urban Harbors Institute, and the Cape Cod Commercial Fishermen’s Alliance. Using data from commercial regional permits, the Atlantic Coastal Cooperative Statistics Program’s (ACCSP) Standard Atlantic Fisheries Information System (SAFIS) Dealer Database, and harbormaster and fishermen surveys, these profiles provide an overview of the commercial fishing activity and infrastructure within each municipality. The Port Profiles are part of a larger report which describes the status of the Commonwealth’s commercial fishing and port infrastructure, as well as how profile data can inform policy, programming, funding, infrastructure improvements, and other important industry- related decisions. For the full report, visit the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries website. Key Terms: Permitted Harvesters: Commercially permitted harvesters residing in the municipality Vessels: Commercially permitted vessels with the municipality listed as the homeport Trips: Discrete commercial trips unloading fish or shellfish in this municipality Active Permitted Harvesters: Commercially permitted harvesters with at least one reported trans- action in a given year Active Dealers: Permitted dealers with at least one reported purchase from a harvester in a given year Ex-Vessel Value: Total amount ($) paid directly to permitted harvesters by dealers at the first point of sale file Port Port SCITUATE Pro Located on the South Shore, Scituate has three harbors: Scituate, North River, and South River- Humarock.

    COMPARING POLICIES FOR ENCOURAGING RETREAT FROM THE MASSACHUSETTS COAST Michael Graikoski and Porter Hoagland1 I. Introduction Along the US Atlantic coast, the lands and infrastructure located on barrier islands and beaches and in backbay estuarine environments face mounting threats from king tides, storm surges, and sea-level rise.2 From the late 19th century to the present, sea-level rise on the United States’ Atlantic coast has been more rapid than any other century-scale increase over the last 2000 years.3 Even slight increases in sea-level rise now have been hypothesized to significantly increase the risks of coastal flooding in many places.4 In New England, some of the most severe northeast storms (“nor’easters”) have become notorious for consequent extreme losses of coastal properties.

  • Transportation Timetables, 1880-2007
    MSS #015, page 1 Transportation Timetables, 1880-2007 MSS: # 016 Processed by: Jason Freitas, December 2014 Volume: 10 boxes Abstract: Timetables for railroads, bus companies, airlines, steamship, and boat transportation companies comprise this collection. The collection was accumulated over the course of about fifty years by various individuals. Though the bulk of items date from the 1940’s to the 1960’s, earlier and later periods are also well- represented. The majority of the collection consists of both employee and public timetables from railroads of New England, with other items coming from New York and Canadian railroads, a wide variety of smaller New England railroads, bus and steamship companies, and railway companies that preceded the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority. Collection Creator: Beverly Historical Society, Walker Transportation Collection Provenance: This collection has been amassed through various donors since 1969. Conservation/Processor's Note: The majority of items consist of saddle-stitched booklets and folded pamphlets. Modern items are more likely to be plastic-coated or synthetic paper and in good condition. Items older than the 1960’s are generally more fragile and should be handled with care. Four different box shapes are used to accommodate the variety of shapes and sizes: standard letter-size boxes for booklets and fragile pamphlets, flip-top pamphlet boxes for sturdier pamphlets, flip-top photo boxes for pocket pamphlets under seven inches, and custom-size boxes for unique items. “Folders” in the pamphlet and photo boxes are not actually folders, but dividers that sit in front of the items they describe. Copyright: Request for permission to publish material from the collection must be submitted in writing to the Curator of Collections in the Cabot House of the Beverly Historical Society & Museum.

    7_15_2020: Winthrop Boat Ramp to Lovells Island, Boston Harbor. 9:45am – 2:30pm. NSPN Wednesday Lunch Paddle. Bob L in white Explorer, Nancy H, Jane C, Sue H, Prudence B, Al C, Amy C, and Michael H.

This was a leisurely paddle through the inner harbor islands. It included some discussion of geological features that will be topics in an upcoming NPSN geology paddle. The launch site at the Winthrop Boat Ramp (Ferry Station) is great – a friendly harbormaster and plentiful parking steps to the put-in. Because all registered paddlers were present we launched about 15 minutes early into an overcast, wet and cool morning. Figure 1 shows the ground track for the paddle. Figure 1: Ground track for 7_15_2020 paddle from Winthrop Boat Ramp to Lovells Island (blue line) Approximate offset for President Roads current (red arrows). As we rounded Point Shirley, I was struck by the dead quiet. There were very few planes taking off from Logan Airport, and what a joy! I remember earlier paddles here cursing the continuous roar of jets, one after another, and wondering where the heck everyone was flying to when paradise existed just below them. Well, COVID is not worth it in exchange; but the peace that descended on this little corner of Boston Harbor was wonderful. Over the airport we saw a spectacular view of Boston framed by a clouded sky.
