the Buzzards Bay Coalition invites you to our:

24th AnnuAl MeetIng at the Kittansett Club – 11 Point Road Marion, MA

May 10, 2012

2012 marks the 25th anniversary of the founding of the Buzzards Bay Coalition by a dedicated group of citizens spanning the Bay from Woods Hole to Westport. They were brought together by the loss of shellfish beds to contamination from sewage, by the ongoing threat of oil spills from barges, by toxic pollution in need of cleanup in New Bedford and at Otis, and by the spread of sprawl development and loss of open space throughout the watershed. In 1987, these problems were reaching an all-time peak and the Bay’s citizens came together to create a new future for our region’s environment.

They believed that local citizens from all watershed towns should work together; for they had the most to gain from the Bay’s preservation and the most to lose by its degra-dation. They created the Buzzards Bay Coalition to carry forth that mission.

So a sign was hung on a donated cadets room at Mass Maritime, a phone line estab-lished, and from the keys of a typewriter, the Bay Coalition began its work to build a citizens movement to clean up the Bay.

The accomplishments in this 2011 Annual Report speak volumes about how far we’ve come as an organization and how the challenges facing our Bay have changed in the past quarter century. But one thing that remains as true today as it was in 1987 is that people are the engine of the Buzzards Bay Coalition. Our members and generous sup-porters who volunteer their time, money, and ideas are at the heart of our efforts and make our work possible.

And, as our 2011 State of Buzzards Bay report documents, the challenges ahead are daunting. The continuing spread of nitrogen pollution is affecting every corner of our region and altering the Bay ecosystem in fundamental ways. Caused by inadequate wastewater treatment and poorly-planned development throughout the watershed, it is the driving force behind nearly all the Bay Coalition’s advocacy, education and land protection efforts today and our efforts are already yielding results.

It is our pleasure, then, to present the challenges and victories highlighted in this Annual Report. We hope you are proud of what we are accomplishing together and that you’ll encourage your friends and family to join us. Thank you!

Sincerely,

Mark Rasmussen President/Buzzards Baykeeper

FROM the PReSIDent AnD ChAIR

The evening will begin with a Reception for Members at 6pm, followed by the Annual Meeting at 7pm. The meeting will include a discussion

2011 STATE OF BuzzARDS BAY

nitrogen Pollution Prevents Improvement in 2011 State of the Bay Score

Every four years the Buzzards Bay Coalition leads a comprehensive review of the health of Buzzards Bay. Developed in collabo-ration with scientists and land use experts and using the best available current and historical information, the State of Buzzards Bay report provides an important tool to assess the effectiveness of Bay cleanup and protection efforts and to guide our work in coming years.

In 2011 the State of the Bay Score, a summation of nine different indicators of the health of the Bay and watershed, did not change since the last report in 2007. While that fact may suggest stability, the State of Buzzards Bay is in fact changing dramatically – in both positive and negative ways.

the greatest gains in the health of Buzzards Bay in recent years have been in the slow cleanup of “Old Pollution” sources – like bacteria and toxics - and the impact of that ongoing success story is evident in the State of the Bay report. But these improvements, while enough to prevent the overall State of the Bay score from falling this year, were not enough to overcome the expanding sources of “new Pollution” – nitrogen - and its impacts.

Nitrogen discharges, from poorly-planned development, are worsening water quality and degrading habitat in all corners of Buzzards Bay. The consequence is a slow suffocation of the Bay we all cherish and the significant declines in the Nitrogen, Eelgrass and Bay Scallop scores in the report are all related to this problem.

We are very proud to have played a part - along with dedicated town officials, state and federal agencies, and citizens - in the ongoing cleanup of the “Old Pollution.” However, what the 2011 State of Buzzards Bay report makes clear is that the “New Pol-lution” has the potential to undo many of these achievements. For this reason, as you will see in the pages that follow, our work today is focused on the greater challenge ahead – managing wastewater and watershed development while increasing commu-nity stewardship in order to reduce nitrogen pollution.

2011 ANNUAL REPORT


The seriousness of the nitrogen pollution problem has been documented by extensive bay health data collect-ed by our nationally-recognized Baywatchers volunteer water quality monitoring program, which celebrated its twentieth sampling year in 2011. Over half of the harbors and coves in Buzzards Bay suffer from nitro-gen pollution. That fact demands action and the Bay Coalition continued our work to stop nitrogen pollu-tion throughout the Bay.

To advance the cleanup of Cape Cod’s waters, we took additional legal action against the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in a lawsuit that calls on the EPA to approve an annual Action Plan for cleaning up Cape Cod’s waters, a requirement of the Clean Water Act that has gone unfulfilled since 1978. This suit builds on earlier action to require the EPA to properly identify septic systems, stormwater, and wastewater treatment plants on the Cape as sources of pollution that can be properly regulated. These cases, which have gained national attention, are fundamental to restoring clean water on Cape Cod.

We also highlighted a missing link for attacking nitrogen across the region, by asking what has happened to the long-delayed Massachusetts Estuaries Project reports that seek to identify how much nitrogen is too much for the Bay. Seven years of delays have stalled action to clean up many of the Bay’s harbors and coves, particularly on the western shore of the Bay.

Solid science and comprehensive advocacy are core elements of the Bay Coalition’s efforts to restore clean water throughout the Bay and watershed. In 2011, with two decades of bay health data demonstrating the growing threat, we continued to attack nitrogen pollution at all levels and across the watershed while securing important protections against oil spills and serving as a watchdog for toxic waste clean up.

While pushing for comprehensive solutions for nitrogen pollution, the Bay Coalition also took action on behalf of individual harbors and coves. In Marion, we led an in-vestigation that found nitrogen pollution leaking from sewage lagoons at the town’s wastewater treatment plant. In Wareham, we built on momentum from the Wareham Nitrogen Consensus by helping the Board of Health draft regulations to reduce nitrogen pollution primarily from new development. If passed by the town, these regula-tions will help protect Wareham’s previous investments in wastewater infrastructure and continue moving the town towards clean water. In West Falmouth, we mobi-lized members and supporters and filed a legal appeal to prevent the issuance of an insufficient discharge permit for the town Wastewater Treatment Plant.

While our work on nitrogen pollution builds, we main-tain our diligence to eliminate toxic pollution in Buzzards Bay and scored a big victory when the First Circuit Court of Appeals found that the US Coast Guard failed to do the required environmental review in passing rules that were weaker than the MA Oil Spill Prevention Act (MOSPA). The ruling lifted an injunction on MOSPA which means that the Bay is now guarded against oil spills by the strict, smart regulations outlined by MOSPA such as require-ments for escort tugs and local pilots.

Finally, we responded to the EPA’s decision to change its plan for disposing of toxic sediments in lower New Bedford Harbor by launching a detailed technical review of the proposed project.

2011 ANNUAL REPORT


In 2011, the Bay Coalition protected 200 acres along Tripps Mill Brook, a tributary of the Mattapoisett River Valley, an important achievement for several reasons. Not only will it be the site of an extensive wetland restoration that will improve water quality on the Mattapoisett River and in the drinking water aquifer, but it is a cornerstone in completing an ambitious effort by the Bay Coalition to protect 500 acres of land in the Mattapoisett River Valley. This initiative, launched in 2010, is part of a partnership with the four surrounding towns and the regional Mattapoisett River Valley Water Supply Protection Advisory Committee to protect drink-ing water and reduce pollution entering Buzzards Bay. When added to previously conserved land, reaching this goal will mean almost 1,000 acres in the Mattapoisett River Valley have been permanently protected due to Bay Coalition efforts.

While this major project was taking significant steps forward, we continued to tackle land conservation and stewardship work across the watershed, includ-ing protecting 54 acres along the Little River estuary in Dartmouth, 48 acres along the Weweantic River in Wareham, 22 acres in Rochester, and 31 acres in the great South Meadow Cedar Swamp of Carver, while also caring for conserved properties all across the watershed.

While nature endowed the Buzzards Bay watershed with all the forests, wetlands, and stream buffers it needs to keep its waters healthy, it is up to us – the Bay Coalition and its partners – to protect the watershed lands that are most important to Bay health and restore the natural areas that have been degraded from human action. In 2011, the Bay Coalition made huge gains towards protecting drinking water in the Mattapoisett River valley, advanced a comprehensive land pro-tection and restoration vision for new Bedford harbor, and continued our restoration and stew-ardship work across the region.

No corner of Buzzards Bay has suffered more damage than New Bedford Harbor but in 2011 the tide is turning for the estuary. At the head of tide in the harbor, con-struction equipment could be found deconstructing the remaining structures at the Bay Coalition’s Acushnet Saw Mill complex in the latest phase of restoration at that site. The Bay Coalition is also working with the City of New Bedford to support funding to restore Palmer’s Island at the mouth of the harbor. These two projects, coupled with the Bay Coalition’s work to restore Marsh Island in the center of the harbor, mean that over 40 acres of coastal habitat will be restored in the coming years.

At the same time, we took further steps towards pro-tecting the largest remaining undisturbed coastal land in New Bedford Harbor. The Bay Coalition acquired 11 more acres of waterfront property along the upper Harbor to continue making strides toward a long term goal of a 50+ acre Acushnet River Reserve.

In addition, the vision for restoration of the Sippican River took shape as the Bay Coalition reached an agree-ment with Beaton’s Inc to work together in the coming years on efforts to restore the River while securing a sustainable water supply for the company’s cranberry bogs. In the short term, the agreement will permanently protect 10 acres on the river, create public access to hun-

dreds of acres of conserved land, and lead to improvements in fish passage with the construction of a new fish ladder to pass Hathaway Pond Dam. It also lays out a clear path for finding a sustainable water source for Beaton’s Inc’s cranberry bogs and completing the full restoration of the Sippican River.

2011 ANNUAL REPORT


In 2010 we celebrated the opening of the award-winning Buzzards Bay Center including the dynamic Richard C. Wheeler Bay Learning Center in New Bedford. With over 1300 adults, families, and school children visit-ing last year the center is quickly becoming the starting point for discovering Buzzards Bay and its watershed.

On the eastern shore of Buzzards Bay, 2011 marked the opening of a redesigned Woods Hole Outreach Center - a seasonal learning center in the heart of the scientific and maritime community of Woods Hole. With colorful exhibits and a touch tank filled with animals right out of Buzzards Bay, the center was an instant hit drawing over 1500 guests in its first season.

In 2011, we also launched our field-based learning pro-grams for youth. These hands-on programs are designed to create a sense of pride and shared responsibility towards the Bay and watershed through exploration, ex-perimentation, and action. In an exciting collaboration with YMCA Southcoast, we helped 1400 youth explore their Bay at Camp Massasoit in Mattapoisett and Camp Fredrick Douglass in New Bedford. Campers from age 6-14 explored salt marshes and shorelines, measured weather and water quality, and gave back through a shoreline cleanup of their camp.

Our innovative vision for connecting the region’s youth with Buzzards Bay was recognized when the Bay

Coalition was awarded a highly com-petitive grant from the Environmental Protection Agency to provide after-school and summer programs to 6000 youth from New Bedford to Wareham in the next two years. We got right to work last fall working with 75 youth in afterschool programs in New Bedford, Mattapoisett, and Wareham.

All our work to Save Buzzards Bay can only be sustained by an engaged and active citizenry serving as stewards of the region’s environment. In 2011, our work to educate and engage the community expanded across the watershed - through our learning centers, field-based educa-tion programs, and decision-maker workshops - reaching over 3,500 people in the first year.

It wasn’t just kids who were discovering Buzzards Bay in a new way during 2011. In the summer we offered Bay Adventures for the general public with two trips to Pekinese Island. Over 35 adults and children explored this pristine part of Buzzards Bay, studying water qual-ity, exploring the shoreline, and learning about oyster aquaculture. With the success of these programs, Bay Adventures around the region are planned for every month in 2012.

In addition to our long-term investment in Bay stew-ardship among youth and the public at large, we also focused on engaging today’s decision makers in govern-ment and business whose work impacts the health of Buzzards Bay. The 2011 decision-maker workshop series focused on reducing nitrogen pollution from wastewa-ter in both large scale municipal wastewater treatment facilities and in on-site treatment systems like septic systems. The two workshops in March featured presen-tations by experts from around the northeast on existing and innovative technologies for reducing nitrogen pollu-tion and field visits to see the technologies in action. The audience of 50 included municipal officials, wastewater engineers, and conservation professionals from across the watershed and many commented that these were among the most helpful trainings they had attended.

On a crystal clear July morning, 216 swimmers dove into Buzzards Bay to demonstrate their support and appre-ciation for a healthy Bay. They came in droves to kick off the July 4th weekend by taking part in the 18th Annual Buzzards Bay Swim and raising over $113,000 for the Bay Coalition.

Registration for the 1.2 mile open water swim surged to new records with the help of a motivating challenge from long time Bay Coalition member and swimmer Larry Fish of West Falmouth. The challenge was to register over 200 swimmers and raise over $75,000. Those goals were eclipsed with 230 registrations and over $88,000 in do-nations to which Mr. Fish added another $25,000.

Fifteen-year-old Nathan Garner of Nashua, NH led the crowd across the course reaching the finish line in 20 minutes and 56 seconds. He was part of a team from Lawrence Vocational Technical High School, who won the Quicks Award and $1,000 as the fastest high school team. Morgan McCarthy of Orleans, MA was the top female fin-isher in a time of 22:17.

The Bay Coalition also showed their appreciation for veteran swimmers and top fundraisers. Sarah Frost of Newport, RI and Chris Parks of Fairhaven, MA completed

their 10th Buzzards Bay swim. Cambridge restaurant own-er, Steve Johnson, led in individual fundraising, gathering over $5,000 in donations for Buzzards Bay Coalition. All of the money raised in the event goes to support the edu-cation, research, conservation and advocacy work of the organization.

The 19th Annual Buzzards Bay Swim will be held on Saturday July 7, 2012.

A record 216 swimmers raced across the Bay in the 18th Annual Buzzards Bay Swim.

Gray skies gave way to sunshine as 116 riders began the Buzzards Bay Coalition’s 5th Annual Watershed Ride on Sunday, October 2nd, 2011. Pedaling through the bucolic back roads of Westport and Dartmouth, the beaches and working waterfront of New Bedford, the bike paths of Fairhaven and Mattapoisett, the farmland and bogs of Rochester and Wareham, and the coastal roads of Bourne and Falmouth, cyclists and volunteers were on the road to support and celebrate the Buzzards Bay watershed.

Cyclists raised over $55,000 this year to support the advocacy, research, education and conservation efforts of the Bay Coalition. Leslie Knowles of Dartmouth and Cindie Aadland of Rochester were the top fundraisers, each raising $1,800.

The 75-mile route took riders past many of the places that benefitted from the work of the Bay Coalition. Over 20 riders took advantage of the 35-mile option that started

at Dexter’s Recreation area in Rochester and followed the second half of the course to the finish line at Quissett Harbor.

Bike mechanics provided on-the-road support and over 70 volunteers helped ensure the success of the event by safely guiding cyclists to the finish line where cheering fans awaited the riders and volunteers to celebrate with food, music, helmet decorating contests and smoothies made from a bicycle-powered blender.

Join us for the 6th Annual Buzzards Bay Watershed Ride on Sunday October 14th, 2012.

Cyclists hit the road at the start of the 5th Annual Watershed Ride in Westport.

Coggeshall Counting house / Buzzards Bay Center • new BedfordRehabilitation & Restoration

The Coggeshall Counting House was built in 1832, during the city’s famed whaling era, by New Bedford merchant and ship owner John Coggeshall, Jr. The four-story, commercial building originally had a first-floor chandlery and second-floor counting rooms, with the top floors used as sail and rigging lofts. The building is a contributing property of the Bedford Landing Waterfront National Historic Landmark District, and is also part of the New Bedford Whaling National Historic Park. Over its history, the building had been severely damaged by a succession of fires, including a particularly large conflagration in 1939 that destroyed the original hipped roof. Prior to the

adaptive reuse project, the upper floors had been vacant for many years.

The Coalition for Buzzards Bay, the only membership-based, non-profit organization dedicated to protecting Buzzards Bay and its watershed, chose to rehabilitate the Coggeshall Counting House rather than construct a new building for its headquarters, the Buzzards Bay Center. Historic photos were used as a basis to replicate missing original doors and windows, as well as the lost original cornice. Exterior brick was repaired and repointed. The project also utilized several “green” principles, including the installation of innovative energy-efficient technology and

a vegetated roof that absorbs half of the rain it receives during storms, helping to protect the bay from runoff pollution. The building, which is the first permanent home for the coalition in its 23-year history, also houses the Richard C. Wheeler Bay Learning Center, Riggs Lab, and a library and large conference room. The Buzzards Bay Center now honors the city’s maritime history, boosts economic development, and raises environmental awareness, while playing an important role in the ongoing revitalization of the New Bedford waterfront.

BuzzARDS BAY CenteR WInS AWARDS

In the span of three days in May 2011 the Buzzards Bay Center earned three awards for its innovative combination of historic preservation and green, energy-efficient design. The building at 114 Front Street, on the New Bedford Waterfront, was built in 1832 as the Coggeshall Counting House and reopened in August 2010 following an extensive green renovation.

Leading the awards, the Massachusetts Historical Commission bestowed its highest honor – the Massachusetts Preservation Award – upon the Buzzards Bay Center for “the careful restoration of the Coggeshall Counting House and its new role as an important community resource.”

In addition, the center was recognized with the “George C. Perkins President’s Award” from WHALE, New Bedford’s preeminent preservation organization. The award is “given annually to an individual or organization whose contributions have made a positive impact on the quality of life in Greater New Bedford.”

Finally, the New Bedford Preservation Society awarded the Elm award, established in 1997 to honor outstanding preservation, restoration, or adaptive reuse of buildings in New Bedford.

23RD AnnuAl MeetIng

The 23rd Annual Meeting on May 5, 2011 marked a new look and name as the membership voted to officially become the ‘Buzzards Bay Coalition’ and update the organization’s logo. Also at the meeting, 2011 Guardian Awards were presented to William “Nick” Nicholson for extraordinary leadership in protecting land in the Mattapoisett River Valley, Jonathan Ettinger, Esq. for his outstanding pro bono legal rep-resentation to protect the Bay from oil spills, and the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus & Mary for spurring the conservation of over 300 acres of coastal land in Wareham. The Bay Coalition also honored David Straus as volunteer of the year for his outstanding work guiding the Wareham Nitrogen Consensus process.

The evening concluded with a talk by Jon Mueller, Vice President for Litigation with the Chesapeake Bay Foundation in Maryland, on the organization’s precedent-setting work to clean up nitrogen pol-lution in the Chesapeake Bay and the legal and political implications for Buzzards Bay.

President Mark Rasmussen opens the 23rd Annual Meeting at the Buzzards Bay Center.

tReASuReR’S RePORt FISCAL YEAR 2011 (JULY 1, 2010-JUNE 20, 2011)

The Buzzards Bay Coalition enjoyed another year of financial stability and growth due to the consistent and very generous support of its membership and supporters. At June 30, 2011, the Coalition’s net as-sets had increased $1.9 million to close the fiscal year at $8.8 million.

Donations were up more than 20% from the prior year, benefiting from the surge in capital campaign gifts as we neared the close of the Campaign for Buzzards Bay. We also experienced a strong increase in our event activities, with a 45% increase in gross revenues from our Ride and Swim fundraising events.

We were pleased to see that membership revenue remained fairly consistent with the high-er levels set the prior year as a result of the membership challenge and pursuant growth.

As expected, our reliance on government grants continues to decline as we strive to build our financial strength on non-government income sources.

The Coalition is a very exciting organization served by a most capable and dedicated staff and generous supporters. While we face many challenges in protecting the Bay we love, I am very confident we will continue to be a strong force for its preservation.

Copies of audited financial statements are available upon request.
