COASTSWEEP 2022 - Still Plenty of Time to Organize or Join a Cleanup
COASTSWEEP—the annual statewide beach cleanup sponsored by CZM—officially kicked off on Saturday, September 17, as part of the International Coastal Cleanup organized by Ocean Conservancy (See the EEA Press Release<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mass.gov%2Fnews%2Fbaker-polito-administration-announces-the-2022-coastsweep-beach-cleanup-program&data=05%7C01%7Csemco%40whoi.edu%7Cd8d2976ad0c8414f7ea508daa2f0d749%7Cd44c5cc6d18c46cc8abd4fdf5b6e5944%7C0%7C0%7C638001453508834980%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=UVD211NHLepI5vA4iq7pC%2FFCct7%2BOfVfOsB49Vg5NmI%3D&reserved=0> for details.) COASTSWEEP cleanups will continue well into November, so there’s still plenty of time to join a cleanup or to sign up to be a local cleanup coordinator for your favorite beach, marsh, dive site, and riverbank. As part of the International Coastal Cleanup, which draws hundreds of thousands of volunteers to coastal cleanups in more than 150 countries worldwide, volunteers remove trash and other marine debris and record data about what they find. This information is entered into Ocean Conservancy’s international marine debris database, which helps researchers and policymakers better understand the sources of global marine debris and develop solutions for prevention.

CZM Staff and People
Marine GIS/Mapping Specialist - In September, CZM’s Marine GIS/Mapping Specialist, Samantha Coccia-Schillo left CZM to be closer to family and friends in upstate New York. Hired in 2016 after completing her master’s degree in Geographic Information Science for Development and the Environment from Clark University, Samantha worked on a variety of projects that touched nearly all CZM programs, including port and harbor planning, coastal access, project review, grants, as well as all manner of data development, analysis, and cartography. Three large projects encapsulate her contributions to CZM. First, Samantha took the lead in developing Coast Guide Online<https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmass-eoeea.maps.arcgis.com%2Fapps%2FMapSeries%2Findex.html%3Fappid%3D35ba833bdc704d49b71a71c511224eb6&data=05%7C01%7Csemco%40whoi.edu%7Cd8d2976ad0c8414f7ea508daa2f0d749%7Cd44c5cc6d18c46cc8abd4fdf5b6e5944%7C0%7C0%7C638001453508834980%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=Ncb4f9uPEcUYtgKf%2FzswH3EVnQrU6utndqBG1R3j0vs%3D&reserved=0>, CZM’s interactive map that displays the more than 1,900 sites along the Massachusetts coast owned by government agencies and nonprofits and open to the public.

More recently, Samantha had been involved in helping to guide wind energy siting in the Gulf of Maine, using her experience with spatial models to conduct high-level site suitability analyses by balancing multiple competing criteria. While her mapping and analytical skills were apparent to all, so was her work ethic, flexibility, reliability, and ever friendly and professional demeanor. She will be missed. Best of luck to you Samantha in all your future endeavors!
