22. Guide To California's Marine Life Management Act ~ Introduction off California. Several species of marine life have been listed underthe endangered Species Act of 1973. The endangered Species http://www.dfg.ca.gov/fg_comm/mlma/introduction.html

CALIFORNIA'S MARINE LIFE is both rich and diverse. Thousands of species of marine plants, crustaceans, mollusks, other invertebrates, fish, seabirds, and marine mammals use an astonishing diversity of habitats. Some species, such as squid, may swarm by the millions in relatively small areas near the coast. Other species, such as blue whales, come in small numbers from distant waters to feed on blooms of krill. Marine mammals, seabirds, and fish migrate from one part of the California coast to another or across the boundaries between Mexico and California. Some fish and shellfish spend their entire lives in a particular area, though they may have begun life as a tiny egg that currents carried a great distance from where it was spawned. The Marine Life Management Act or MLMA seeks to assure that the way we use this richness and diversity of life is sustainable. The MLMA recognizes that the way we fish for one species, for instance, may affect other species or their habitats in ways that harm marine ecosystems. The MLMA also recognizes that research and an understanding of marine life are essential to making good decisions about our stewardship of marine living resources. As a result, the MLMA promotes the use of scientific information about the lives and needs of marine plants and animals. There are other aspects of the human side of the conservation equation. For instance, the MLMA recognizes that when people become involved in management decisions, their stake in the stewardship of marine life grows. Fisheries managers also need to understand the effects of management measures both on the fish themselves and on the users. Failure to examine how fishermen will respond to specific management measures often has undermined effective management. Finally, the effectiveness of management measures depends greatly upon public confidence in the way in which decisions are made and put into practice. Critical to building and maintaining this confidence is an openness in decision making that goes beyond traditional, formal processes.

State Water Quality Protection Area The following terms are defined in Fish and Game Code Section 2852: Adaptive Management "Adaptive management," with regard to marine protected areas, means a management policy that seeks to improve management of biological resources, particularly in areas of scientific uncertainty, by viewing program actions as tools for learning. Actions shall be designed so that, even if they fail, they will provide useful information for future actions, and monitoring and evaluation shall be emphasized so that the interaction of different elements within marine systems may be better understood. Back to Top Biogeographical Regions "Biogeographical regions" refers to the following oceanic or near shore areas, seaward from the high tide line or the mouth of coastal rivers, with distinctive biological characteristics, unless the master plan team establishes an alternative set of boundaries (emphasis added): The area extending south from Point Conception.

The Personals Style Street Heroes and Zeros Locker Room ... Work It Courtesy of NOAA Listening to Marine Life Susan Parks might not be able to communicate with marine animals but she still listens in on their conversations. The marine biologist is studying how the endangered North Atlantic right whale communicates when finding and selecting a mate. "Marine mammals are exciting subjects to study in this area because most species produce distinctive sounds that may be used for communication," Susan explains online. What She Does Most of her time is spent in the lab (about nine to 10 hours a day, five days a week) analyzing data that has been collected. When she does work in the field (about one to three months a year) everything depends on the weather . In good weather she works long hours, in bad weather she might even have to stop working for a few days. Susan is currently a graduate student in the M.I.T - Woods Hole Courtesy of NOAA Oceanographic Institution Joint Program. "I took classes at M.I.T. for about a year and now I am working at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution that is both an educational and research institution." Susan takes courses, collects and analyzes her own data, helps advisors with research projects and applies for funding for her own research. She even gets to travel. So far she's been to Maui, Vancouver, London and Rome.

CURRICULUM BRIDGES: MARINE LIFE MATH LANGUAGE ARTS SOCIAL STUDIES VISUAL/PERFORMING ARTS ... LITERATURE LINKS MATH: Return to Top Grade Level: Beginning MAMMALS: There are 5 whales swimming through the ocean. They meet up with 7 dolphins. How many mammals are there altogether? Grade Level: Beginning A WALRUS CALF: A walrus calf (baby) is learning to swim. During his lessons a calf will sometimes hold onto its mother's flipper. The calf swims awhile and then clings to the flipper of his mom. He then holds onto his mom's flipper 5 more times. How many times does the calf hold onto his mother's flipper? Grade Level: Beginning HOW MANY FISH: In the ocean depth many fish are swimming. Pretend that you can swim with the fish and that you have a net to catch some with. You catch 2 fish at one time and then swim farther and catch 6 more fish. How many fish have you caught altogether? Grade Level: Intermediate TWELVE DOLPHINS: 12 dolphins are swimming through the water at 20 miles per hour. There are 4 plastic rings and each of the dolphins swim through the rings. How many times are the rings used by the dolphins to swim through? Grade Level: Intermediate MARINE ANIMALS: Many marine animals are masters of "flight" and speed under the water. Some can swim up to 12,500 miles to migrate. These are the Gray Whales that migrate from the far north to breeding grounds off California. If they swim about 200 miles a day, how many days will it take for them to reach their destination in California?

It is prepared from Daily Event Reports (DER) filed by nuclear power station operators as required by the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission. NOTE: This list does not constitute an actual total number of marine life deaths with particular concern for endangered species, specifically extremely rare sea turtles. Current NIRS investigations reveal that not all coastal and river nuclear power operators are publicly reporting marine kills to the NRC. For example, at least nine threatened or endangered sea turtles have been killed at the Brunswick, NC reactor site since 1997. 09/19/1999 SAINT LUCIE, Hutchinson Island, FL Event # 36199

"Tragically, under the present regulatory system, the nuclear power industry's needs almost always prevail over the interests of marine life," said Scott Denman, Executive Director of the Safe Energy Communication Council (SECC). "Instead of applying sanctions when a nuclear plant kills more than its allotted quota of endangered species, NRC almost always supports industry attempts to raise the limits on the number of animals that can be killed or captured during reactor operation," Denman added.
