Northern Redwoods Oceanic External Array Proposal “D” Presented by William Lemos NCRSG Member 24 March 2010

Overview of EX D Collaborative Research Effort Based on Conservation Community and Consumptive Community Needs Used SAT and BRTF Science Guidelines Factored in Scio-Economic Impacts Modified original ideas after receiving local input Placed primary emphasis on enhancing biodiversity through thoughtfully placed MPAs

Literature Exploration EXAMPLE: “Effects of Noncompliance on the Success of Alternative Designs of Marine Protected-Area Networks for Conservation and Fisheries Management” by Jacob P. Kritzer, Dept of Biological Sciences, Windsor, ON From Conservation Biology, Volume 18, No. 4, August 2004 “The benefits (of MPAs) have been well documented, with numerous studies demonstrating higher densities and larger body sizes of exploited species and greater overall bio- Diversity within MPAs.”

EX D Contributors Conservation First Sierra Club, Mendocino Chapter Defenders of Wildlife National Resources Defense Council Ocean Conservancy Coastal Action Group School of Natural Resources Coast Land Trust Local Individuals

EX D Goals Use MLPA science guidelines Include high quality habitats Keep MPAs as far as possible from harbors Minimize socio-economic impacts Select “science laboratory” areas Create public awareness for marine conservation Protect ceremonial gathering and traditional usage rights of California tribes and tribal communities

Areas of Special Importance Southern River Estuaries (Ten Mile, Big, Albion, Navarro) Mendocino Headlands Point Cabrillo Cape Visciano Big Flat/Delgada Canyon Punta Gorda Humboldt Bay Reading Rock Saint George Reef
