On Tuesday evening July 24, 2007 LIDA will present an outstanding seminar on the Wreck of the RMS REPUBLIC, Free to LIDA members, $5.00 Fee to all others.

Details to follow, but briefly in the the summer of 1986, 37 men sailed to the last known location of the RMS REPUBLIC which had sunk in 1909 following a collision with the vessel SS “FLORIDA”, about sixty miles south of the Nantucket Light. It involved Helium/Oxygen saturation and 12 to 16 hours per day diving on the wreck, in addition to use of submarines and robot vehicles to probe the wreck and document thousands of rare artifacts including a working Edison light bulb. The REPUBLIC was the first ship to utilize the Marconi radio in an emergency and the first ship to be electrified with Edison lights. The history of the wreck will be presented by REPUBLIC diver GLEN BUTLER, CEO of Life Support Technologies, Boston Sea Rover, and BTS “Diver of the Year” among other many other accomplishments.
The Seminar will have limited seating at the Nassau University Medical Center Amphitheatre. Reserve your seat NOW by e-mail to steveburke@optonline.net
We will present this seminar on a Tuesday night to avoid interference with anyone’s weekend dive plans.

See you there. More details to follow, but you can begin reserving your spots now.

U.S. Navy Being Sued

Five environmental groups have filed a federal lawsuit against the U.S. Navy for its use of high-intensity, active sonar in training exercises around the Hawaiian Islands, which they

state,”will harm whales and other marine mammals.” The lawsuit also cites the National Marine Fisheries Service for inadequately assessing the Navy’s plans to be sure its actions

do not harm endangered marine life.

For more info go to:

http://starbulletin.com/2007/05/17/news/story05.html

The New Jersey Bureau of Marine Fisheries, within NJDEP’s Division of Fish and Wildlife, joined the efforts of other agencies by entering the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service’s (USFWS) Cooperative Coastal Striped Bass Tagging Program in 1989. The Cooperative Tagging Program has provided valuable information for striped bass restoration and conservation. The tagging information has provided biologists with a better understanding of striped bass migration, mortality and spawning behavior. Through 2006, over 33,000 striped bass have been tagged in New Jersey alone and 7,614 have been recaptured and reported by fishermen from locations up and down the East Coast.

However, there is still a lot to be learned from the tagging program and angler assistance is needed in collecting and reporting striped bass tags.

Some striped bass tagged this spring carry new tags that offer a reward of $125. Rewards are also being offered for several other type tags. Help continue the valuable striped bass data collection effort. Be on the lookout for tags on striped bass when fishing this year. For more information on the different striped bass tags, various rewards and how to go about reporting, visit the following link http://www.njfishandwildlife.com/images/marine/strbass_tag_flyer07.jpg

Great News for the Coast and Ocean!
Congress Defeats Attempt to Open America’s Coasts
to Offshore Gas Drilling

From COA

This morning, the US Congress declared its commitment to protecting America’s pristine beaches and coastlines from dirty oil and gas drilling.

Members of the US House of Representatives Appropriations Committee voted 39-25 to overwhelmingly defeat an amendment introduced by US Representative John Peterson (R-PA) that would have opened coastlines to natural gas exploration–a move that would have opened the floodgates for both gas and oil drilling up and down our coasts.  Natural gas exploration and drilling have most of the same destructive and polluting impacts as offshore oil activities.

We need to leave polluting, risky offshore drilling behind and focus on readily available and cleaner alternatives.  The real solution to addressing our nation’s energy problems is energy conservation and efficiency.

The New York and New Jersey coast has been protected from offshore oil and gas activities since 1982.  Citizens and local, state, and federal officials have vehemently opposed drilling and worked to maintain these protections to protect the environmental and coastal economies.

Atlantic Coast Diving Councils, Clubs and divers,

The Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission American Lobster Board has issued a press released dated May 8, 2007 approving their Addendum XI establishing “measures to rebuild SNE (Southern New England) stock of American lobster”.  In April of this year the Addendum was released for public comment. When approved, the Addendum had changed to include male lobster in its maximum carapace section.  This change was not in the original Public Comment Document.  This change effectively bans the taking of trophy size lobster from Massachusetts to Virginia.  As we are a small portion of the many user groups of this fishery we need to have a loud voice if we do not wish to loose our right to  take trophy size lobster.

I am sending this via email as we all need to start working with our respective State Marine Fisheries Councils to appeal the addition of male lobster to the Addendum without public comment.  We have a deadline near June 25th to appeal.  Your individual representatives on the ASMFC Lobster Board also need to be informed of our displeasure in allowing this to occur.
Their contact information can be found at  <http://www.asmfc.org/>

We all must stand united, or we shall fall before an uncaring bureaucracy whose ignorance and disdain of our sport will deprive us of our rights to participate in this fishery.

Innovative Scuba Concepts Recalls Diving Regulator Components Due to Drowning Hazard

The recall involves the HO110 Swivels sold as an aftermarket regulator component. There are no markings such as a date or production code embossed on the unit. Contact Innovative Scuba Concepts for information on where the recalled units were sold.

(Media-Newswire.com) - WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with the firm named below, today announced a voluntary recall of the following consumer product. Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed.

Name of product: Swivel for a Scuba Regulator
Units: About 170
Importer: Innovative Scuba Concepts Inc., of Colorado Springs, Colo.

Hazard: The swivel, which is attached to a diving regulator, could separate while diving. This will result in a complete and sudden loss of the diver’s air supply, causing the diver to engage in emergency ascent procedures. This poses a risk of decompression sickness due to rapid ascent, and air embolism or drowning if the diver panics or the emergency ascent procedure fails.

Incidents/Injuries: The firm has received one report where the swivel separated during a dive and caused the diver to ascend using the buddy breathing technique. No injury was reported. Description: The recall involves the HO110 Swivels sold as an aftermarket
regulator component. There are no markings such as a date or production code embossed on the unit. Contact Innovative Scuba Concepts for information on where the recalled units were sold.

Sold at: Specialty retail dive stores nationwide from January 2006 through March 2007 for about $40. They also could have been installed by a dive shop regulator technician.

Manufactured in: Taiwan

Remedy: Consumers should stop using regulators with the swivel attached and contact the dive store where purchased for a refund.

Consumer Contact: For additional information, contact Innovative Scuba Concepts Inc. at ( 800 ) 472-2740 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. CT Monday through Friday, or visit the firm’s web site at www.innovativescuba.com

Seldom has legislation designed to improve recreational fishing in New Jersey waters received such widespread support as the two bills that would prohibit traps and pots on artificial reefs.

Four powerful recreational groups - Recreational Fishing Alliance, Jersey Coast Anglers Association, New Jersey Council of Diving Clubs and Reef Rescue - are leading the charge, and together they represent most anglers and divers with an interest in the reefs.

Further, organizations such as the American Littoral Society have weighed in favor of the legislation, and more are expected to join the effort. The Assembly version of the legislation - A-3986 - was passed out of that body’s Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee 4-1 May 21, and now must be posted by Assembly Speaker Joe Roberts for a final vote.

Assemblyman Sean Kean, R-Monmouth, introduced the bill several months ago, and since then it has gotten considerable support from members of both parties.

James A. Donofrio, executive director of the Recreational Fishing Alliance, said he regards the bipartisan support as a real example of democracy in action. “There are no party lines here,” he said. “These are lawmakers from both sides of the aisle doing the right thing - listening to the majority of the people.” Thomas P. Fote, legislative chairman of the Jersey Coast Anglers Association, said he is pleased to see the bill advancing with such broad
support. “Recreational fishing is important to our state, and it is good to see our
legislators recognizing this,” he said. Pete Grimbilas, a spokesman for Reef Rescue, said the reefs have been a success story for recreational anglers and the state’s Department of
Environmental Protection. “A handful of potters are dominating the reefs, and they’re fishing them seven days a week, 24 hours a day,” he said.

The four organizations - RFA, JCAA and Reef Rescue - began disseminating a joint letter Friday in which they appealed to anglers and divers to write, call or talk to their legislators about the legislation.

It was determined several years ago that 90 percent of the bottom-fishing effort has been centered on the 15 artificial reefs, two in state waters and 13 in federal waters, off the New Jersey coastline. Commercial gear has been increasingly hampering that opportunity.

“In recent years, the artificial reefs have been taken over by commercial fishermen who have overrun our reef areas by their proliferation of fish traps and pots on sites that were specifically built for hook and line fishing and diving,” they pointed out in the letter.

“This gear has restricted access to hook and line anglers, interfered with the goals and objectives of the Artificial Reef Program, and has also hindered additional reef construction and expansion efforts,” they continued.

“Once an isolated problem on the northernmost reefs, the lack of restrictions on the number of pots a commercial fisherman can fish has allowed the problem to rapidly expand to every reef along the entire Jersey coast,” they added.

“Essentially, the reefs have become dominated by a relatively small group of commercial fishermen, and that was not the original intention of the Artificial Reef Program,” they stressed.

The bills being considered by the Assembly and the Senate would limit fishing gear on reefs to hook and line and spear only. Donofrio said he has talked with members of the Senate Environment Committee, which is expected to hold a hearing on the Senate bill - S-2635 - soon, and he said they understand the issue.

Capt. Joe Bogan, skipper of the Jamaica II, Brielle, said access to the reefs is important to his business and the anglers he carries, and he has long advocated getting the commercial pots, flags and other gear off the grounds.

Bogan was targeting wreck fish until the fluke season opened Saturday, but the emphasis is now on sea bass and flatfish. Both species are found on the artificial reefs.

Clean Ocean Action thought the diving community would be interested in this outrage! (Peggy Note : see article at the bottom)

This week, USEPA announced that it will no longer be conducting dissolved oxygen (DO) and bacterial tests off New Jersey. This is an outrage. The state of NJ uses this data to determine the health of the ocean. Monitoring is essential to detect low DO, fish kills, and, of course, for trends. Fishermen and divers have the right and the need to know if an area is impacted so they can plan and adapt. Divers are also particularly helpful in seeing and reporting the magnitude and extent of the problem if made aware of problem areas. Federal and state officials also need to know the ocean conditions in order to respond to problems. We are left now deaf, dumb, and blind about the health of ocean resources.

In response, Clean Ocean Action is hosting a press conference with Congressman Frank Pallone, Senator Frank Lautenberg (tentative), a representative from NJDEP, and a variety of groups, to urge EPA Region 2 to reconsider and restart the helicopter-based DO testing program. Come one, come all! The press conference will be held this coming Monday, June 4, at 11:30am at the Public Beach in Sea Bright, NJ.

> DEP scientist: Algae bloom in coastal waters dissipating

> http://www.app.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070531/NEWS03/705310384

> Posted by the Asbury Park Press on 05/31/07

> BY TODD B. BATES

> ENVIRONMENTAL WRITER

>

> Algae blooming in Raritan and Sandy Hook bays and the ocean south to  Manasquan Inlet appears to be diminishing, a state DEP official said Wednesday.

> “I would say it is a little less intense than it has been,” said Virginia Loftin, a Department of Environmental Protection research scientist. “It’s  sort of breaking up, I think.”

The dominant species of algae in the heavy bloom, a diatom called  Dactyliosolen fragilissimus, is not harmful to human or ecological health, unless it goes to the bottom and depletes dissolved oxygen, according to officials. The bloom, which turned waters brown and triggered complaints from beachgoers and boaters last weekend, is the heaviest DEP officials can remember in years, according to Loftin.

> Tommy Yerves, who lives in the Elberon section of Long Branch, said he saw “floating fecal matter” last weekend from West End Beach in Long Branch to Allenhurst.

> “There was no way in hell that was algae,” said Yerves, although some algae might have been around it. On Wednesday morning, the matter was still “lingering around,” he said.

> “It’s not as bad,” but it was still on jetties, he said. But Loftin, who oversees New Jersey’s Cooperative Coastal Monitoring Program, said the material was “absolutely not” fecal waste.

> “Wastewater from a sewage treatment plant doesn’t look like this,” she said.”It’s gray.”

> Materials from combined sewage and stormwater overflows in the New York-New Jersey Harbor area would have “trash and other sewage waste associated with it,” Loftin said.

> But officials in a state plane did not see any trash in the water Wednesday or in recent days, she said. What they did see Wednesday was algae in the bays and “patches of heavy algae . . . in the surf to approximately 300 yards offshore from Sandy Hook south to Manasquan Inlet,” according to the DEP Web site.

> Disagreement with EPA

> Meanwhile, Rep. Frank J. Pallone Jr. and U.S. Sen. Frank R. Lautenberg, both D-N.J., urged the immediate reinstatement of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s helicopter monitoring program for dissolved oxygen and bacteria off the New Jersey coast, according to an e-mail from Pallone’s office

> “We find this sudden change in EPA policy inappropriate,” they wrote to Alan J. Steinberg, administrator of the EPA’s Region 2 office in New York City.

> “EPA’s unilateral decision to shut down this testing with no public discussion or input is unacceptable,” they wrote.

> Dead and decaying algae can deplete ocean waters of oxygen, potentially harming shellfish and bottom-dwelling fish and leading to massive fish kills, the letter said.

> Without the monitoring, “New Jersey and New York lose the first alert system for signs of water quality problems,” according to the letter.

> But the EPA stands behind its decision to change the program for scientific reasons, according to an e-mail from EPA spokeswoman Mary Mears. The EPA is “filling a scientific need by evaluating a new cutting-edge rapid water quality test that can identify harmful pathogens in a fraction of the time the traditional test takes,” said a statement by Steinberg.

> At New Jersey’s request, “we are also actively seeking a contract for a helicopter that will be used to sample shellfish beds,” the statement added.

> Sampling for bacteria and dissolved oxygen are “areas where there is either redundant capacity or the usefulness of the data collected is limited,” it said.

> It makes more sense to gather information regarding the widespread problem of low dissolved oxygen and algal blooms - which stretches to New England - with other means, such as using the EPA’s ocean research vessel, the statement said.

> Loftin, of the DEP, said the loss of helicopter sampling for dissolved oxygen is “unfortunate. That’s data we’re going to miss.”

> But the EPA sampling for bacteria was “not particularly valuable to our program” because it was done outside the swimming area, she said.
