    Extractions: Press Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FOR MORE INFORMATION December 5, 2000 Ted Forsgren (850) 224-3474 OUTLAW NETTING TAKES ITS TOLL ON MARINE LIFE - FOUR ENDANGERED SEA TURTLES FOUND DEAD IN ILLEGAL GILLNET Stepped up enforcement efforts against illegal gillnetting have resulted in numerous arrests and recoveries of abandoned gillnets. In St. Joe Bay (Gulf County) Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) officers discovered an abandoned illegal gillnet with four endangered green sea turtles entangled and dead in the net. Another abandoned gillnet was found by FWC officers in Bay County. The gillnet was 200 yards long and was full of dead skipjack, catfish, Spanish mackerel, and three sharks, one of which was a six-foot blacktip shark. The FWC is continuing to actively investigate the St. Joe Bay incident. Major Kent Thompson, head of FWC Marine Law Enforcement in Northwest Florida, indicated that they are working with the National Marine Fisheries Service and are offering a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the person(s) responsible for abandoning the gillnet which killed the four sea turtles. Some of the illegal netting arrests made by the FWC in recent weeks are: In Wakulla County, numerous fishermen have been arrested for possessing illegal gillnets on boats less than 22 feet in length. (Several years ago, CCA Florida advocated and the Florida Legislature passed several net ban enforcement laws, including prohibiting possession of gillnets on small boats which are obviously not capable of fishing nets legally in federal waters more than 10 miles offshore.)

    Extractions: We encourage responsible, rather than harmful, human interaction with ocean mammals. And we seek to educate the public as to what these species need in order to enjoy life, bear and nurture offspring and endure. What are our roots? PMLF was founded in 1984 by two internationally recognized marine mammal veterinarians, Rae Stone and Jay Sweeney, who were doing pioneering work with dolphins at Waikoloa, Hawaii. The name they chose for their new non-profit organization was Waikoloa Marine Life Fund, and they put much energy and imagination into its early years. The organization became Pacific Marine Life Foundation in 1998 to expand its arena of concern and influence to the entire Pacific Basin.

Scripps, of La Jolla, Calif., is authorized to conduct a proposed two-year pilot project that will attempt to assess and evaluate the potential effects of certain sound transmissions on the distribution and behavior of marine animals, and to identify ways to avoid any potential disruption that the transmissions may cause. This project is part of a larger effort by Scripps to monitor long-term changes to ocean temperature by measuring transmission times of low frequency sound. Scripps must follow nearly 50 special measures to protect marine life, including safeguards formally agreed to by Scripps and six environmental organizations on the location and operation of the research. Signatories to the agreement were Scripps, the Humane Society of the U.S., American Oceans Campaign, Earth Island Institute, Environmental Defense Fund, League for Coastal Protection, and the Natural Resources Defense Council.

    Extractions: NOAA 95-R147 Contact: Scott Smullen - NMFS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE The federal government today gave the Scripps Institution of Oceanography of La Jolla, Calif., approval for a two-year research project to determine the effects of low-frequency sound on marine animals in an area nearly 15 kilometers north of Kauai, Hawaii, announced the Commerce Department's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Scripps is authorized to conduct a proposed two-year project north of Haena Point, Kauai, that will attempt to assess and evaluate the potential effects of certain sound transmissions on the distribution and behavior of marine animals, and to identify ways to avoid any potential disruption that the transmissions may cause. This project is part of a larger effort by Scripps to monitor long-term changes to ocean temperature by measuring transmission times of low frequency sound. Scripps must follow 26 special measures to protect marine mammals and sea turtles, including safeguards to shut down the sound source immediately if any adverse effects are observed. The NOAA agencies conclude that the research should have little effect on marine mammals and sea turtles if the protective measures are followed. However, NOAA will require Scripps to modify their research if significant adverse effects to the animals are observed. NOAA held Hawaii public hearings and extended several comment periods over a two-year period to collect all available scientific data about the potential effects of Scrippsþproposed Acoustic Thermometry of Ocean Climate (ATOC) research. In addition, the Advanced Research Projects Agency, sponsor of the Scripps project, and NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service developed an environmental impact statement under the National Environmental Policy Act.

    Extractions: Storybooks About Marine Life And Habitats These are some great books to read about marine life. There are simply too many books to list, but I consider these to be the very best. Although written on a primary level, I still use these books with my older students. The illustrations and messages are simply too wonderful not to share with them. Also, it often inspires the older students to write stories for the primary grades. Click on the book for a link to Amazon.com. Pagoo By Holling I first saw this book in 1982, and I have loved it and used it ever since. It follows the life of a hermit crab from birth to death. It is filled with wonderfully accurate information and illustrations about marine life. Even my 6th graders love this book. Definitely a read aloud for younger students. A House for Hermit Crab By Eric Carle I know you've all seen it, but this one is too good not to list. This is the story of a hermit crab who has grown too big for his shell and has to find a new one. The new home is not very decorated, and hermit crab meets some delightful new ocean creatures to help him

    Extractions: Endangered Oceans Activities Our oceans and many of the creatures that live in them are in big trouble! We must do everything we can to protect them! The ocean covers more than seventy percent of the surface of the earth. Our oceans are in trouble as the result of pollution and over fishing. Many species of marine wildlife are in danger of extinction, and our coral reefs, wetlands, and kelp forests are disappearing. It is important that we teach children about protecting our oceans which are a major source of resources for our planet. Activities: To teach the concept of entanglement which is one of the greatest dangers to sea turtles and shorebirds, give each student a rubber band which they loop around their thumb and fourth finger. They must try to get the rubber band off without using their other hand. Clean up an oil spill: Fill a tub with water. an oil spill. Get used oil from an automotive shop and pour some into tubs. Give the students, detergent, sponges, strainers, alum, coffee filters, etc. Each group tries to get their water as clean as possible.

    Extractions: Welcome to our Marine Life Directory, These pages were started to show the types of life to be found in the sea, some pictures and likely places to find them. We are always willing to show photographs, so any help you can give will be appreciated, credited to you and a link placed to your own site if you want it. Two words of advice when you dive looking for them (and it should be obvious): fish are creatures of habit but they do move, so you may not always find them in the same place - they act like we do and they follow their food or suitable water. Secondly, soft corals open when there is a current - so diving at slack tide can often look like diving a desert. What do you want to know about? Fish: E.g. Angels, Butterflies, Cod and Trumpet fish.

    Extractions: The dramatic and destructive impacts of ocean dumping are illustrated by these mind-boggling statistics: During the one-day Hawaii beach cleanup in October 1995, 3,564 people covered 82 miles of beaches. They picked up 32,200 pounds of garbage from our beaches. On Maui alone during the 1995 cleanup, 724 volunteers covered 16.2 miles, picking up 100,381 bags of debris. In addition, each year between 1987-1994, the military, Pacific Whale Foundation, Community Work Day and the Protect Kahoolawe Ohana removed between 6-8 tons of debris from a single uninhabited beach on Kahoolawe. People dump more than 14 billion pounds of garbage each year into the world's oceans. People dump more than 650,000 plastic bottles into the oceans each day. People dump an additional 100,000 metric tons of mono-filament lines and fishing gear into the ocean each year. Worldwide estimates of lost netting translate this amount into anywhere from 12,400 to 135,000 miles annually.

    http://www.nature.nps.gov/wv/tes.htm
    
    Extractions: Text Version Currently the Endangered Species Act (ESA) is in the process of reauthorization. The National Park Service (NPS) strongly supports the reauthorization of the Act as it exemplifies our mission to "...conserve the scenery and the natural and historic objects and the wild life therein...and leave them unimpaired for...future generations". Recognizing that some feel the Act is not working as well as it might, the Administration and the Department have proposed (March 1995) a ten-point plan of administrative and legislative changes. These would give states greater ability to guide species protection and recovery, increase the role of science in decision making and provide more flexibility and less regulation for small landowners. The Administration also wants to show its willingness to work with other federal agencies, states and tribal governments. Congress recognized the importance of preserving a diversity of wildlife and plant species, and set the course for a new direction in wildlife conservation with the passage of the Endangered Species Act (16 USC 1531 et seq.) of 1973. The ESA is the most far-reaching law ever enacted by any nation for the preservation of endangered species. It states that endangered and threatened species "are of aesthetic, ecological, educational, historical, recreational, and scientific value to the Nation and its people." The goals of the act are to provide a means whereby the ecosystems upon which endangered species and threatened species depend may be conserved and to restore all federally listed endangered and threatened species to the point where their numbers again make them viable, self-sustaining members of their ecological communities.

    Extractions: March, 2003 MIAMI, FL — Nearly three-quarters of American cruise ship passengers say raw sewage should not be dumped anywhere in the ocean, and a majority would pay more to help big cruise companies improve onboard waste treatment, according to a recent poll released. The survey was commissioned by the Washington-based environmental group Oceana, which called on the cruise industry to stop all dumping of untreated sewage in the ocean and to upgrade onboard waste treatment systems. Major cruise lines, including No. 1 industry player Carnival Corp and No. 2 Royal Caribbean Cruises, have paid tens of millions of dollars in fines over the past several years to settle ocean pollution charges. The International Council of Cruise Lines, the industry's trade group, said cruise lines have come a long way in treating sewage. At a Miami Beach news conference across the road from the convention center where industry executives are holding their annual Seatrade meeting, Oceana said the poll indicated cruise passengers were appalled to learn that cruise ships can legally dump untreated waste into the ocean. Seventy-two percent said raw sewage should not be dumped anywhere in the ocean, while 25 percent said it would be OK to dump treated sewage far enough from shore that it would not impact local areas, according to the survey of 633 U.S. cruise passengers conducted by the Washington-based Greenberg Quinlan Rosner Research, Inc.
