CZM Announces Coastal Pollutant Remediation Grants to Communities

On December 9, Massachusetts Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA) Secretary Rick Sullivan announced $399,120 in funding through CZM's Coastal Pollution Remediation (CPR) Grant Program<http://www.mass.gov/eea/agencies/czm/program-areas/coastal-water-quality/cpr/> for projects to protect coastal waters in Massachusetts. The CPR grant recipients are the communities of Barnstable, Bourne, Falmouth, Hingham, Kingston, and Plymouth. Projects include local efforts to design and implement controls for runoff pollution from roadways and parking areas and to install pumpout facilities for boat sewage from commercial vessels. The grants are being matched by $154,583 from municipal sources, further extending the power of the grant program. The projects funded through this year's CPR awards are:

*         Barnstable - $113,700 to construct a boat sewage pumpout facility in Hyannis Harbor for commercial vessels and support compliance with the South Cape and Islands No Discharge Area (NDA).

*         Bourne - $60,000 to construct a stormwater treatment system to address runoff pollution to Fisherman's Cove in the Buzzards Bay watershed.

*         Falmouth - $9,603 to replace the heavily used pumpout station in the inner area of Falmouth Harbor and support compliance with the South Cape and Islands NDA.

*         Hingham - $21,958 to study and complete preliminary designs for a stormwater treatment system to address contaminated runoff to Walton's Cove.

*         Kingston - $116,627 to develop final design plans and install stormwater treatment systems at key discharge locations and improve water quality and open shellfish beds within the Jones River Estuary.

*         Plymouth - $12,232 to purchase and install a pump at the Plymouth Harbor shoreside pumpout facility, prevent boat sewage discharges into Plymouth Harbor, part of the Plymouth, Kingston, and Duxbury NDA.

CZM Releases Sea Level Rise Guidance

CZM has released Sea Level Rise: Understanding and Applying Trends and Future Scenarios for Analysis and Planning<http://www.mass.gov/eea/docs/czm/stormsmart/slr-guidance-2013.pdf> (PDF, 3.2 MB), a new guidance document to help coastal communities and others plan for and address potential sea level rise effects on residential and commercial development, infrastructure and critical facilities, and natural resources and ecosystems. The document includes background information on local and global sea level rise trends, summarizes the best available sea level rise projections, and provides general guidance in the selection and application of sea level rise scenarios for coastal vulnerability assessments, planning, and decision making for areas that may be at present or future risk from the effects of sea level rise. The document is intended to be updated as new science and information becomes available.



Great Marsh Sea Level Rise Symposium

On November 14, the Great Marsh Coalition held the Great Marsh Symposium 2013: The Value of Natural Systems in Protecting Great Marsh Communities at the Great House at The Trustees of Reservations Crane Estate in Ipswich. This full-day event invited coastal decision makers and interested local citizens from the region to discuss the value of natural systems in mitigating sea level rise impacts in the Great Marsh, the largest continuous stretch of salt marsh in New England. This second annual sea level rise event filled the venue to capacity, attracting more than 130 participants from the Great Marsh area and surrounding communities. Fine weather on the day of the event allowed participants to take a tour of the Great Marsh from the roof of the Great House, with spectacular views of the entire region. For more information, including the 2013 symposium presentations, see the Great Marsh Coalition website<http://www.greatmarsh.org/>.

CZ-Tip - When the Weather Outside Is Frightful, Here's Where to Track the Storm

Last year, the Massachusetts coast was hit by some serious northeasters<http://www.weather.com/encyclopedia/winter/noreast.html> (often spelled "nor'easters"): the June Northeaster<http://boston.cbslocal.com/2012/06/04/weather-forecast-continued-coastal-flooding-likely-from-june-noreaster/>, the November Northeaster<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/November_2012_nor%27easter> (on the heels of Hurricane Sandy), and the December North American Blizzard, also known as Winter Storm Freyr<http://www.weather.com/news/weather-winter/winter-storm-freyr-20121228>. Northeasters are named for their predominant winds, which come from the northeast. Although they can occur all year long, October through April is prime northeaster season, when cold arctic air from the north combines with warm, moist air from the south and forms strong areas of low pressure. The resulting storms can pack a real punch to the shoreline, with battering waves, storm surges, and winds that sometimes reach hurricane force. And don't forget the precipitation-rain, sleet, freezing rain, snow, or sometimes all of it together! For information on how to track these storms and stay safe this winter, see CZ-Tip - Tracking Northeasters and Staying Safe in the Storm<http://www.mass.gov/eea/agencies/czm/program-areas/communications/cz-tips/cz-tip-northeasters.html>.
