| FORM 990, PAGE 2, LINE 4A | CONFEDERACY OF MAINLAND MI'KMAQ, NOVA SCOTIA, CANADA MI'KMAQ CONSERVATION GROUP REEF BALL PROJECT CONTINUED. THE GOAL OF THEIR PROJECT IS TO RESTORE COASTAL HABITATS ALONG THE NORTHUMBERLAND STRAIT & THE BAY OF FUNDY. THE CUSTOM REEF BALL SYSTEM THAT WILL BE DEPLOYED TO PROVIDE SHELTER AND HABITAT FOR FISH AND LOBSTER. MEMBERS OF THE MI'KMAW CONSERVATION GROUP, A PROGRAM RUN BY THE CONFEDERACY OF MAINLAND MI'KMAQ, SPENT THE SUMMER BUILDING THE LARGE CONCRETE REEF BALLS, WHICH WEIGH BETWEEN 70 AND 90 KILOGRAMS. THE UNIQUE PROJECT HAS BEEN MET WITH ENTHUSIASM FROM MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, MANY OF WHOM HAVE BEEN HIRED OVER THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS TO BE PART OF IT, SAID FRANCIS. IT'S BEEN REALLY GREAT FOR ME TO BE ABLE TO DO GOOD WORK LIKE THIS IN MY OWN HOME COMMUNITY," HE SAID. N THE FUTURE, FRANCIS HOPES TO USE ARTIFICIAL REEFS TO OFFSET DAMAGE DONE BY DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS. COMPANIES WOULD PAY TO CREATE THE HABITAT IF THEIR PROJECTS ENCROACH ON SENSITIVE ECOSYSTEMS, HE SAID. TO MAKE SURE THE ARTIFICIAL REEFS ARE DOING WHAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO, A DIVE TEAM WILL CHECK ON THEM OVER THE NEXT FEW YEARS. "WE'LL BE RECORDING SPECIES THAT HAVE COME IN AND COLONIZED [THE REEF BALLS] AND WHAT SORT OF CHANGES ARE GOING ON DOWN THERE," FRANCIS SAID. PRESIDIO TRUST: SAN FRANCISCO BAY, CALIFORNIA CONTINUING OUR PROJECT IN SAN, FRANCISCO. THIS PROJECT WAS INITIATED BY THE PRESIDIO TRUST IN PARTNERSHIP WITH OTHER LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS TO RESTORE THE OYSTER POPULATION AND HELP FORGE OUT THE WATER. ONE OF ITS KEY FUNCTIONS IS ITS ABILITY TO ACT AS A MINI-FILTER. ALTHOUGH SMALL, THE OYSTER CAN TAKE IN LARGE QUANTITIES OF SEA WATER - AS MUCH AS 20 TO 30 QUARTS AN HOUR - AND EXTRACT POLLUTANTS AND ALGAE-CAUSING PLANKTON.THE REEFS MAY ALSO SERVE TO PROTECT SHORELINES FROM WAVE ACTION AND EROSION, KEY AS THE REGION FACES SEA-LEVEL RISE. THE WORK IS PART OF A LARGER PROJECT TO CREATE A LIVING SHORELINE AND IMPROVE HABITAT FOR PACIFIC HERRING, SALMON, FISH, BIRDS, AND A VARIETY OF OTHER SPECIES IN THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY. CHESAPEAKE BAY FOUNDATION CONTINUED LONG TERM PARTNERSHIP WITH CBF. PROJECTS FOR OYSTER HABITAT RESTORATION, SHORELINE RENEWAL, RESEARCH AND COMMUNITY EDUCATION.
