<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>After completing her Bachelor
of Science Degree in Environmental Science at the University of Massachusetts
in Amherst Ms. Boretos, began her career in natural resource protection in 1981
as a Conservation Commission member in Falmouth, Massachusetts. She
served as the Conservation Administrator in Barnstable during its rapid
development in the mid 1980s, implementing the state <i>Wetlands Protection Act
Regulations</i> and the local <i>Wetlands Protection By-Law</i>. Diane
was also an Assistant District Coordinator for Vermont’s Land Use Plan,
Act 250, which regulated projects such as ski resort expansions, black bear
habitat protection, water supply withdrawal wells and sub-division
projects. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>For six years Diane was a
wetland biologist with the Massachusetts Department of Protection’s
Division of Wetlands where she specialized in the wildlife habitat regulations,
under the state <i>Wetland Protection Act Regulations</i>. She has
provided expert testimony on behalf of towns and states on wetland and wildlife
issues and has authored numerous articles on wetlands and wildlife.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>She is co-author of Stackpole
Book’s <i>Bird Tracks and Sign</i> and editor of <i>Wetlands</i> by Paul
Rezendes. She has extensive experience dealing with protection of
endangered species under state and federal regulations. Diane has been
tracking wildlife in New England and in the Rocky Mountains for 15 years and
has studied with master trackers such as Jim Halfpenny and Paul Rezendes.
Diane teaches wildlife tracking programs for adults throughout New
England. She is a certified Professional Wetland Scientist and the
principal biologist and founder of Call of the Wild Consulting And Environmental
Services.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Since Scott Hecker first stepped foot on the beaches of
Plymouth and Cape Cod in May 1987 as a tern warden for the Massachusetts
Audubon Society, his affection for protecting these beach-nesting birds and
their and habitats has only increased. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Between 1987 and 2003, Scott served as Director of the
Coastal Waterbird Program for Mass Audubon, where he played a vital role
developing research, advocacy, and education efforts aimed at protecting
threatened terns and plovers. The work of his staff and partners in this
endeavor contributed substantially to the state’s dramatic rebound of
Piping Plovers from 126 pairs in 1987 to 530 pairs in 2002. From
2003 to 2008, Scott continued his work as the Director of the National Audubon
Society’s Coastal Bird Conservation Program, where he broadened the reach
of this effective model to include more threatened coastal bird species and
additional states on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Since 2008 Scott has served as Executive Director of the
Goldenrod Foundation, where he continues to develop research, advocacy, and
educational programs with all interested partners to increase conservation of
coastal birds and habitats from breeding sites in southeastern Massachusetts to
wintering sites elsewhere in the western hemisphere.<o:p></o:p></p>
