<p class=CZ-MailParagraph><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>The
Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA) and CZM are actively
developing the building blocks for the ocean management planning process, which
include filling the legislatively prescribed bodies of the Ocean Advisory
Commission (OAC) and the Ocean Science Council (OSC), as well as working on
generating the data and materials needed to get these bodies up and running. It
is anticipated that the OAC and OSC will be empanelled in August and will begin
actively working to advise EEA Secretary Bowles on the development of the ocean
management plan. To coordinate these ongoing ocean planning efforts, on August
5, CZM will welcome back former Boston Harbor Regional Coordinator, John Weber
as Ocean Services Manager (see CZM Staff & People below). John will be
working at EEA as a key member of the ocean planning team. Stay tuned to the </span></font><a

<p class=CZ-MailParagraph><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>In
July, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approved the state’s
proposals to designate the coastal waters of <st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Boston</st1:PlaceName>
<st1:PlaceType w:st="on">Harbor</st1:PlaceType> and <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName
w:st="on">Cape Cod</st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceType w:st="on">Bay</st1:PlaceType></st1:place>,
as vessel No Discharge Areas (NDAs). In Boston Harbor, the ban on discharge of
all boat sewage applies to the state waters of Winthrop, Chelsea, Everett,
Boston, Quincy, Milton, Weymouth, Braintree, Hingham, and Hull. The Boston
Harbor NDA also includes the waters of the Charles River in Watertown, Newton,
and Cambridge. In Cape Cod Bay, the discharge ban would apply to the bayside
coastal waters of Bourne, Sandwich, Barnstable, Yarmouth, Dennis, Brewster,
Orleans, Eastham, Wellfleet, Truro, and Provincetown. The designations are in
response to EEA nominations for NDA status. Both applications were prepared by
CZM with assistance from Urban Harbors Institute in Boston, and the Association
to Preserve Cape Cod and Nantucket Soundkeeper on Cape Cod—all working
closely with the communities involved. With these latest designations, more
than two-thirds of the <st1:State w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">Massachusetts</st1:place></st1:State>
coastline is covered by an NDA. For details, see the </span></font><a

Notice</a> and the <a href="http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2008/E8-17101.htm">Cape

vessels in the harbor. The Provincetown facility, completed in July, will serve
more than 800 vessels. These CPR-funded facilities can handle boat waste from
both the recreational and commercial fleet in each harbor and provide a vital

- MORIS, the Massachusetts Ocean Resource Information System, is an online
mapping tool created by CZM and the <a
href="http://www.mass.gov/mgis/massgis.htm"
title="http://www.mass.gov/mgis/massgis.htm">Massachusetts Office of Geographic
and Environmental Information</a> (MassGIS). MORIS can be used to search and
display spatial data pertaining to the Massachusetts coastal zone. Users can
interactively view various data layers (e.g., tide gauge stations, marine
protected areas, access points, eelgrass beds, etc.) over a backdrop of aerial
photographs, political boundaries, natural resources, human uses, bathymetry,
or other data. Users can quickly create and share maps and download the actual
data for use in a Geographic Information System (GIS). While designed for
coastal management professionals, MORIS can be used by anyone interested in
these data and maps. See <a href="http://www.mass.gov/czm/mapping">CZM’s
MORIS web page</a> for more information and to launch MORIS.<o:p></o:p></p>

- COASTSWEEP, the state-wide beach cleanup sponsored by CZM and the Urban
Harbors Institute at UMass Boston, will kick off its 21<sup>st</sup> year on
September 20 at Salisbury Beach. Volunteers throughout Massachusetts turn out
in large numbers each year for this event, which is part of an international
campaign organized by The Ocean Conservancy in Washington, DC. Participants all
over the world collect marine debris and record the types of trash they collect.
This information is then used to help reduce future marine debris problems.
Cleanups will be scheduled throughout September and October. To get involved,
go to the <a href="http://www.coastsweep.umb.edu/">COASTSWEEP website</a>.<o:p></o:p></p>
