2015 ANNUAL REPORT

IT IS OUR GREAT PLEASURE TO SHARE THIS 2015 ANNUAL REPORT

with you - our members and supporters – whose outstanding commitment

to our success made possible such amazing achievements over the past year.

The accomplishments featured in this report are wonderful investments

in the future of our Bay. And they point the way to so much exciting

work ahead.

They are models, not end points.

The Acushnet Sawmill is not simply the best waterfront park created in

Greater New Bedford in decades; it is a template we can use to restore

fish and wetlands at dozens of similarly-damaged sites on all of the

Bay’s rivers. The protection of 411 coastal acres on Nasketucket Bay is

not simply the biggest land preservation victory on Buzzards Bay in a

generation; we can apply the public-private funding model we created to

thousands of new acres of threatened land. The installation of 20 new

septic systems on West Falmouth Harbor is not simply another step in

the ongoing restoration of that degraded waterway; neighborhoods all

along the Bay can apply this model to select technologies and engage

homeowners to create workable solutions to local wastewater pollution.

These successes were built around the Coalition’s unique approach:

strong collaborations with towns, neighborhoods, and landowners; a

commitment to seeking out new ways to solve tough problems; and

unabashed doggedness.

The challenges facing our Bay require nothing less.

Coalition founder George Hampson’s last day on the Bay last fall was

spent on our boat, the R/V Buzzards Baykeeper®, teaching staff how to

monitor the health of the tiny creatures that live in the Bay’s bottom.

Having tracked these “canaries in the coalmine” for more than half a

century, George had become alarmed at the dramatic decline in both

the total numbers but also diversity of these critters. As was his nature,

George – marine scientist, local advocate, and beloved teacher – wanted

to empower the Coalition to continue his work. And we will.

We hope you share our pride in the expanding impact and scale of the

Coalition’s accomplishments. None of it would have been possible without

your strong support. Thank you!

2 BUZZARDS BAY COALITION

CHALLENGE By far, the most serious and difficult challenge facing Bay restoration is nitrogen pollution. It leaches from our septic systems, seeps from our streets, lawns, and cranberry bogs, and flows from aging sewer plants into the Bay’s sensitive harbors and coves. The Bay also faces challenges from bacterial contamination, toxic pollution, and the constant threat of oil spills.

STRATEGY For 25 years, the Coalition has kept a watchful eye on Buzzards Bay’s health through our award-winning Baywatchers water quality monitoring program. But we don’t just study the Bay; we put this science to work. Sound science forms the foundation of all of our advocacy efforts to restore and protect clean water.

RESULTS We pursue the restoration and protection of the Bay ecosystem at all levels of government: local, state, and federal. We’ve secured limits on nitrogen pollution, developed new laws to make the Bay safer from oil spills, and fought for a full cleanup of toxic pollution in New Bedford Harbor.

ON THE WATER

WE ALL SHARE THE SAME VISION FOR BUZZARDS BAY: A SCENIC SHORELINE WITH safe swimming beaches, open shellfish beds filled with quahogs, and healthy waters where fish and wildlife thrive. Our Bay is resilient; with sound science, the right laws, and proper enforcement, it can bounce back from the harmful effects of nitrogen and other pollution.

Through science and advocacy, the Buzzards Bay Coalition is leading the way to protect and restore our local waterways for fish, shellfish, wildlife, and most importantly, people.

Cleaning up nitrogen pollution in West Falmouth HarborHOMEOWNERS INSTALLING NEW SEPTIC SYSTEMS TO SLOW ONE OF THE HARBOR’S BIGGEST SOURCES OF NITROGEN POLLUTION

LEFT West Falmouth homeowner Bob Kretschmar’s twin stepsons love swimming in the harbor outside their family cottage every summer. By upgrading his septic system to a nitrogen-reducing system, Bob is making a difference to speed up the harbor’s recovery for future generations to enjoy. (Image: Bob Kretschmar)

When most people think of Cape Cod, the first thing

that comes to mind is water. Swimming, boating,

fishing – these are the reasons why thousands of

people love visiting the Cape every summer.

But Cape Cod’s coastal waters are suffering from

too much nitrogen pollution – the greatest long-

term threat to the health of Buzzards Bay. Perhaps

no place is more aware of the nitrogen pollution

problem than West Falmouth Harbor. For the past

20 years, the harbor’s health has been in a slow,

steady decline. Clumps of green algae often cover the

shoreline, and eelgrass has vanished from many parts

of the harbor.

Falmouth’s wastewater treatment plant was upgraded

in 2005 to reduce nitrogen loads to West Falmouth

Harbor. Today, septic systems are one of the largest

sources of nitrogen pollution. One hundred percent

of the homes around the harbor are on septic systems

and cesspools, which aren’t designed to remove

nitrogen at all.

Through an innovative pilot program coordinated

by the Coalition in partnership with the town of

Falmouth, 20 local homeowners are making a

difference for the harbor’s health by upgrading

their septic systems. Each homeowner is receiving

a $10,000 subsidy and technical support to upgrade

to new technology that reduces nitrogen. By

participating in this program, these homeowners are

taking action to speed up the harbor’s recovery and

setting a strong example.

This successful pilot project is a model for dozens

of other harbors and coves on Buzzards Bay that

are polluted with nitrogen from septic systems. The

Coalition will work to bring proactive solutions like

this to a community near you.

BY THE NUMBERS West Falmouth Harbor septic system pilot program

2,740 pounds of nitrogen pollution reduced every year!

4 different septic system technologies used out of 15 evaluated

$10,000 subsidy per home, funded by $250,000 EPA grant


In 2015, we continued our ongoing fight against nitrogen pollution in Buzzards Bay, defended the Bay against oil spills, and worked to prevent new pollution from fouling the Bay. You can learn more about our work to protect clean water through science and advocacy on our website, www.savebuzzardsbay.org.

ON THE WATER | Highlights of 2015

For the first time, the Coalition’s Baywatchers monitoring data is being used to

evaluate the effects of climate change on the Bay. Using 22 years of data, researchers

from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, the Buzzards Bay National

Estuary Program, and the Marine Biological Laboratory found that average

summertime temperatures throughout the Bay have warmed by roughly 4ºF since

1992. What’s more, the study suggests that warmer water is fueling more algae

growth, resulting in decreasing water quality.

Analyzing the effects of a warming Bay on water quality

In 2015, the Coalition honored five individuals as Buzzards Bay Guardians, our

highest award for outstanding service to Buzzards Bay:

• Paul Niedzwiecki of the Cape Cod Commission for leadership in development of

the Cape 208 Water Quality Plan

• Jennifer Howard of the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and

Recreation for the preservation of Nasketucket Bay State Reservation

• Massachusetts’ Assistant Attorneys General Seth Schofield and Pierce Cray for

defense of the Massachusetts Oil Spill Prevention Act

• Joe Costa of the Buzzards Bay National Estuary Program for a lifetime of

contributions to Bay science and management

Honoring the guardians of Buzzards Bay

New Bedford Harbor won a hard-fought battle in the fight to clean up toxic PCB

pollution in 2015. With strong community input from the Coalition and others,

the U.S. EPA abandoned its plans to bury contaminated sediment directly along

the upper estuary’s shoreline in large, bulkheaded cells called Confined Disposal

Facilities (CDFs). Instead, the toxins will be shipped to a safe, secure disposal facility

along with more than half a million cubic yards of contaminated mud from the

harbor bottom over the next decade.

Advocating for a full, safe cleanup of PCBs in New Bedford Harbor

Brandt Island Cove has a brighter future now that owners of a local marina have

replaced decaying foam floats that littered a nearby salt marsh with thousands of

broken pieces of polystyrene. The Coalition supported the Mattapoisett Conservation

Commission in its work to require the marina to remove these outdated floats and

clean up the mess they made.

Expanding world-class wastewater treatment in upper Buzzards BayFIRST-OF-ITS-KIND COLLABORATION BRINGS TOGETHER WAREHAM, BOURNE, PLYMOUTH, AND THE MASSACHUSETTS MARITIME ACADEMY TO REDUCE NITROGEN POLLUTION

Buzzards Bay’s nitrogen pollution problem is huge,

and demands bold action from municipalities. Now,

a unique regional partnership is bringing together

three Buzzards Bay towns – Wareham, Bourne,

and Plymouth – and the Massachusetts Maritime

Academy to tackle nitrogen pollution in the upper

portion of Buzzards Bay.

The project centers around the Wareham wastewater

treatment plant – a highly advanced facility that

removes far more nitrogen than any other plant in

our region. If the Wareham sewer plant moves its

discharge pipe out of the Agawam River to a less

sensitive location near the Academy, the three towns

could expand sewer lines to neighborhoods currently

served by septic systems and cesspools. By coming

together across town lines, these communities can

take advantage of a system that treats wastewater to

the best level possible.

These four partners are combining their resources

to achieve a common goal: clean water in upper

Buzzards Bay. Most importantly, this partnership

will serve as a model for other communities

grappling with the same nitrogen pollution problems.

The Coalition recently received a $200,000 grant from

the EPA-funded Southeast New England Program for

this effort and is now pursuing additional funding to

make this innovative project a reality.

It will be an opportunity to clean up the

rivers in Wareham, to clean up other

waterways in the region, and to clean up

Buzzards Bay.”

Guy Campinha, Wareham Water Pollution Control Facility Director

“

The Wareham wastewater treatment plant discharges its treated sewage into the Agawam River (at the spot seen here): a small, relatively shallow river that’s far from Buzzards Bay’s open waters. By moving this discharge pipe to a less sensitive location at Massachusetts Maritime Academy, neighborhoods in Wareham, Bourne, and Plymouth can connect to the Bay’s best wastewater treatment plant and reduce a significant amount of nitrogen pollution to the upper Bay.

CHALLENGE Just about half of the land in the Buzzards Bay watershed – the 432-square-mile area that drains to the Bay – is undeveloped and unprotected. The fate of these lands is fundamental to our effort to protect clean water. Without saving the most important forests, streams, and wetlands, the Bay cannot survive the harmful effects of poorly planned sprawl development.

STRATEGY We pursue a Bay-focused land protection strategy that focuses on the watershed’s most vulnerable forests, streams, and salt marshes – natural areas that the Bay cannot afford to lose. We also restore damaged rivers, wetlands, and streambanks and help towns and land trusts preserve land in every corner of our watershed.

RESULTS The Coalition manages the largest land conservation program in southeastern Massachusetts. Since 1998, we’ve protected more than 7,000 acres throughout the Buzzards Bay watershed. We’re also restoring damaged streams, rebuilding wetlands, and creating better access for people to explore the outdoors in their community.

IN THE WATERSHED

WATERSHED PROTECTION IS ABOUT CONSERVING ALL OF THE PARTS OF THE Buzzards Bay ecosystem – not just its harbors and coves, but its forests, wetlands, rivers, streams, and groundwater. These critical areas provide important habitats, protect our drinking water sources, and act as natural filters for the Bay.

Through watershed protection, the Buzzards Bay Coalition is forever protecting the region’s valuable forests, streams, and wetlands and restoring damaged areas so the Bay ecosystem can thrive.

Celebrating land conservation in Fairhaven and MattapoisettCOALITION CAPS FOUR-YEAR NASKETUCKET BAY PROJECT WITH PUBLIC OPENING OF SHAW FARM TRAIL

LEFT Officials from Fairhaven, Mattapoisett, the federal and state governments, and the Coalition celebrated the opening of Shaw Farm Trail at a public ribbon-cutting ceremony in July. Pictured (L-R): Christine Clark (USDA-NRCS, obscured), Mike Gagne (Mattapoisett Town Administrator), Mark Rasmussen, Bob Espindola (Fairhaven Selectman), Philip Denormandie (obscured), Congressman Bill Keating, State Rep. Bill Straus, Matthew Sisk (DCR), and Brendan Annett.

2015 was a year to celebrate land conservation on

Buzzards Bay. And for thousands of people who

love the outdoors in our region, 2015 was also a

year to share in these celebrations by opening brand

new places on the Acushnet River (see page 14) and

Nasketucket Bay to get outside and explore.

In July, the Coalition welcomed local, state, and

federal officials and community members to stunning

views of Nasketucket Bay to mark the completion

of the Nasketucket Bay Land Conservation Project.

This extraordinary four-year, $6.25 million initiative

has forever protected 416 acres of forests, fields, and

coastal farmland in Fairhaven and Mattapoisett – the

largest land conservation project on Buzzards Bay’s

shores in a generation.

Few coastal bays in Massachusetts have such

plentiful natural resources as Nasketucket Bay. That’s

due in large part to land conservation. Preserving

forests, meadows, and salt marshes around

Nasketucket Bay protects the bay’s clean water: its

sparkling blue shores, its dense eelgrass meadows,

its abundant fish, shellfish, and wildlife populations.

Without conservation, this beautiful place could have

been lost forever to development.

As part of this project, the Coalition doubled the size

of Nasketucket Bay State Reservation and created

a new public trail called Shaw Farm Trail. This

mile-long trail created a missing link between the

state reservation and the popular bike path that runs

through Fairhaven and Mattapoisett. Thousands of

local residents can now walk from their homes all the

way to the shores of Nasketucket Bay.

By protecting this land, we’re continuing a legacy

of conservation on Nasketucket Bay that everybody

can celebrate.

BY THE NUMBERS Nasketucket Bay Land Conservation Project

226 acres of woods, fields, and streams opened for public recreation

190 acres of active farmland protected

5 miles of trails through Nasketucket Bay State Reservation

$6.25 million raised for conservation


In 2015, we continued our role as a regional leader in land conservation by protecting and restoring more of the Bay’s special places. You can learn more about our work to conserve land and restore damaged natural areas on our website, www.savebuzzardsbay.org.

IN THE WATERSHED | Highlights of 2015

Wickets Island is the centerpiece of scenic Onset Bay, a place treasured

for its natural shorelines and rich outdoor recreation. In 2015, Wareham

residents helped save Wickets Island forever by approving funding for

the Coalition to purchase the island. Wickets Island will soon be open to

all for swimming, paddling, fishing, quahogging, and exploration.

Protecting a landmark island for people in Wareham

The Coalition is working with the Westport Land Conservation Trust

to protect 102 acres of forested land along Angeline Brook. This unique

coldwater stream, which flows to the West Branch of the Westport River,

is one of the few remaining habitats in southern New England for native

sea-run brook trout, or “salters.”

Saving a salter stream in Westport

At the entrance to Westport Harbor lies a barrier beach that leads out

to the dramatic Point of Rocks, or “the Knubble.” This sensitive barrier

beach protects the Westport River inlet and provides outstanding

views of the Bay. The Coalition has been working to support the

town of Westport in restoring the beach’s fragile dunes and provide

environmentally responsible access for all Westport residents.

Restoring a river for migratory fish in WarehamCOALITION AIMS TO BRING BACK WEWEANTIC RIVER’S RICH FISH POPULATIONS

What happens when migratory fish like river herring,

eels, and white perch reach the crumbling remains of

a dam at the head of tide on the Weweantic River?

It’s like hitting a wall – and most of these fish just

can’t get past.

Because of this blockage, fish populations on the

Weweantic have been falling for decades. With its

rocky riffles and rare tidal mix of fresh and salt water,

this spot on the river is critical for spawning fish.

Still, the Weweantic River is home to the most

diverse community of migratory fish that exists

anywhere on Buzzards Bay. Historically, we know

that even Atlantic salmon, shad, and sturgeon lived

in this river. There’s an opportunity to restore fish

communities here on the Bay’s largest freshwater

river that have been lost everywhere else.

The Coalition has begun a process to restore the river

at Horseshoe Mill, where the dam is located. Our

vision here is similar to The Sawmill on the Acushnet

River (see page 14): restoring critical habitat for fish

by reopening both the river and a former industrial

site for all.

In December, we kicked off a feasibility study with

a public meeting in Wareham. An engineering

firm is now developing and examining a variety of

restoration alternatives, which we’ll present back to

the community this year.

It’s not just that fish love to use this

spot – fish need to use this spot, but it’s

deteriorating and it’s limited.”

Brendan Annett, Vice President of Watershed Protection

“

The crumbling remains of a dam sit at the head of tide on the Weweantic River. This structure blocks migration and limits spawning habitat for fish. The Coalition has kicked off a project to restore the river at Horseshoe Mill in Wareham for fish, wildlife, and people.

CHALLENGE Buzzards Bay faces a crisis of disengagement. Fewer people today know the Bay, and most children grow up in front of screens instead of on sandy shores. Without connections to the natural world, people have turned a blind eye to the Bay’s decline. If we don’t address this disengagement, our work will ultimately fail.

STRATEGY Connecting people to the Bay is a fundamental part of the Coalition’s work. We tackle this crisis of disengagement head-on through outdoor programming, engaging events and workshops, and vibrant print and digital communications. These efforts build stronger connections to our local environment to support the long-term stewardship of Buzzards Bay.

RESULTS Every year, thousands discover the Bay as part of our outdoor exploration programs. We’re expanding a network of Bay discovery sites where all people can get outside, and giving local decision makers solutions to pressing pollution problems. Through annual events like the Swim and Watershed Ride, we’re rebuilding connections to our irreplaceable Bay.

THE KEY TO A CLEAN, HEALTHY BUZZARDS BAY IS AN ENGAGED COMMUNITY THAT understands the threats the Bay faces and their role in protecting it. The long-term health of our local environment depends on people knowing, loving, and valuing the Bay as important to their lives.

Through community engagement, the Buzzards Bay Coalition is creating a new generation of Bay stewards: People who understand their place in the Bay ecosystem and support its protection for decades to come.

Increasing outdoor exploration across our regionTHOUSANDS OF PEOPLE GET OUTSIDE AND DISCOVER BUZZARDS BAY WITH THE COALITION

LEFT At The Sawmill in Acushnet, children and adults of all ages are discovering a new side of Buzzards Bay. Since The Sawmill opened in November (see page 14), the Coalition has already led several programs for local schoolchildren, families, birders, and hikers. Here, students from Jireh Swift Elementary School in New Bedford see a crayfish from the Acushnet River for the first time.

Over the past five years, the Coalition has invested

deeply in outdoor exploration programs for youth

and adults in our region. And in 2015, more people

than ever got outside and discovered forests, beaches,

streams, wetlands, and waters on dozens of Bay

Adventures and field programs.

Our focus is simple (and fun!): connect more people

to the vibrant natural world that lives here on

Buzzards Bay and across our watershed through

hands-on outdoor exploration.

Last year, we led over 4,000 students on field

programs at schools from New Bedford to

Falmouth. Kids got muddy in marshes, found frog

eggs in vernal pools, and splashed paddles through

the water on kayaks. At Minot Forest Elementary

School in Wareham, all third- and fourth-graders

discovered the forest behind their school on

programs with our partners at the Wareham Land

Trust. For many, it was the first time they’d ever

ventured into these woods.

For adults and families looking to get outside

and explore, the Coalition also leads weekly Bay

Adventures. These programs are exciting, engaging

outdoor experiences for people of all ages – like

“Build Your Own Fishing Pole,” where participants

use sticks from the forest to build fishing poles, and

then cast their line into a local river. Other popular

Bay Adventures include stand-up paddleboarding,

seal and seabird watches, and Itty Bitty Bay

Explorers, a series for families with young children.

With each person who digs up their first quahog,

holds a jumping frog in their hand, and finds a new

favorite forest trail to the shore, we’re reconnecting

our communities to the Bay we cherish.

2, 2016, which will feature a new 100-mile route and 10-mile family ride.

Biking for clean water in Buzzards Bay

With the opening of new Bay discovery sites across the region, the

Coalition is enlisting the help of dedicated volunteers who love these

places and want to make a difference. Volunteers can “adopt a reserve”

at places like The Sawmill, The Bogs, and LaPalme Farm, giving us

more eyes on the ground at these popular outdoor destinations.

Volunteering to keep a watchful eye on the Coalition’s trails

2015 marked the fifth year of our successful Decision Makers Workshops

series, designed for local leaders in government, business, and agriculture

whose daily decisions affect the health of the Bay and our local

environment. Last year, these free workshops provided real-world tested

strategies to reduce nitrogen from cranberry bogs and septic systems.

Making it simple to Discover Buzzards BayTHE COALITION IS YOUR SOURCE FOR INFORMATION AND IDEAS TO GET OUTSIDE AND EXPLORE

“Discover Buzzards Bay” is an idea that’s much

bigger than Bay Adventures and field trips for youth.

It’s about giving people like you the tools to find new

trails to walk, routes to cycle, waterways to paddle,

and shellfish beds to dig. And it’s about creating the

means and motivation for people to get outside and

explore woods, wetlands, and waterways.

That’s why we’re investing deeply in our mission to

become a constant, energetic source of information

that everybody can use to get outside and explore.

Our new website at www.savebuzzardsbay.org

(launching this May) is a portal to hundreds of

Bringing the Acushnet River back to health

AT THE EDGE OF NEW BEDFORD’S URBAN NORTH

end sits The Sawmill: a 19-acre former lumber yard

on the Acushnet River. The river flows gently through

The Sawmill from its headwaters in Freetown to New

Bedford Harbor and Buzzards Bay.

The river here has experienced centuries of industrial

use. For nearly 300 years, a dam blocked migrating

fish from reaching their freshwater spawning

grounds. Four acres of pavement and buildings

covered the ground, sending pollution directly into

the river with every rain storm.

Now, all that has changed.

Over a two-year period that began in 2013, the

Coalition restored The Sawmill to bring back natural

swamps, meadows, and riverbanks that once grew

here many years ago. The Sawmill you see today

protects clean water, provides better habitat for fish

and wildlife, and offers people like you a beautiful

place to explore the outdoors.

On November 6, 2015, the Coalition unveiled The

Sawmill to the public at an opening ceremony

attended by hundreds of officials and local residents.

Since then, thousands of people have visited The

Sawmill for hands-on field education programs,

family hikes, and quiet reflections along the banks of

the beautiful Acushnet River.

The children who walk, fish, and paddle here today

will only ever know a thriving river where they can

discover their Buzzards Bay.

RIGHT The Buzzards Bay Coalition restored native meadows, a red maple swamp, and natural riverbanks along the Acushnet River at The Sawmill. This public park is now open, inviting visitors like you to walk the trails and paddle the river’s scenic waters. (Image: Paul Curado)


Let me begin by saying ‘Welcome

Back to the Acushnet River.’ The

river has been here all along, but we

as a community lost it for a while.

For decades we turned our back on

it. Some would argue that we killed

it with industrial toxic waste and

sewage in the 20th century. It was a

disgrace, but it wasn’t dead.

And now, here in our time, the

people of this area have turned their

eyes back to the Acushnet River

and are beginning to see a new

future of opportunity, beauty, and

neighborhood revitalization instead

of blight.”

beauty for years to come.”

Growing up around and on the Bay gave me an appreciation and love

for the ocean. Now, I live by the Bay with my husband and young son.

We have to restore, respect, and care for this body of water to ensure a

clean and healthy environment for our families and everyone else who

values it as much as we do.”

THE BUZZARDS BAY COALITION CONTINUES TO BENEFIT FROM THE

increasing support from its membership and supporters. At September 30,

2015, the Coalition’s financial position remains strong, with net assets of

$7 million and a $2 million endowment fund.

In a move to better align its operations with its financials, the Coalition

transitioned to a new fiscal year that runs from October 1 to September 30.

This past fiscal and transition year includes the 15-month period, July 1,

2014 and ended on September 30, 2015. The quarter ending September

30 is traditionally a quieter period in our annual fundraising cycle.

Consequently, and as anticipated, this one-time inclusion of a fifth

quarter combined with planned spend-down of funds raised through our

2008-2011 Campaign for Buzzards Bay produced an organizational deficit

reflected below.

The Coalition has a very capable and dedicated staff and most generous

supporters. This is a very dynamic and exciting organization. I am very

confident we will continue to be a strong force for its preservation.

Copies of audited financial statements are available upon request.

TREASURER’S REPORTFISCAL YEAR 2015

JULY 1, 2014 TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2015

In May 2015, Buzzards Bay

Brewing launched Sow &

Pigs Ale, named for the

striper-filled reef at the Bay’s

entrance off Cuttyhunk

Island. Long an advocate of

clean water, Buzzards Bay

Brewing generously donated

a portion of profits to support

the Coalition’s work. A light,

easy drinking beer, Sow &

Pigs was a hit with both beer

aficionados and lovers of

Buzzards Bay. Sow & Pigs is

now an annual tradition. It

can be found at restaurants

and package stores from May

until July.

OUR VISION

• A Bay shoreline defined by safe swimming beaches, open shellfish beds, and stretches of scenic natural areas for all to enjoy.

• Healthy waters that support abundant fish, shellfish, and wildlife populations.

• A Bay safe from the threats of oil spills, industrial and sewer discharges, and ocean dumping.

• A watershed where rivers, streams, inland forests, and wetlands that buffer the Bay are protected.
