保护行动动态
布莱克沃里尔河护水者(美国阿拉巴马州) 的法务专员伊娃・迪拉德近期就阿拉巴马州露天采矿委员会暂停对扩建煤矿进行甲烷监测的决定发表了看法。阿拉巴马州官员已告知联邦政府,他们不会要求这些煤矿开展甲烷监测 —— 而此类煤矿存在潜在爆炸风险。在当地居民数月的施压下,联邦官员向阿拉巴马州发出了一份为期 10 天的通知,旨在迫使该州官员解决在产煤矿甲烷排放的危害问题。然而,州官员在同意给予煤矿企业 90 天时间提交更新计划(详细说明其将如何遵守相关要求)后,将期限延长了 6 个月。该期限已于 9 月 30 日到期,而阿拉巴马州露天采矿委员会主任凯西・洛夫却决定无限期暂停所有关于甲烷监测计划的要求。伊娃・迪拉德认为这一决定十分鲁莽,将煤矿企业的经济利益置于周边社区的安全之上。
拉巴斯护水者(墨西哥) 参与了由墨西哥基金会举办的 “自然保护知识共享周”(SICC)活动。在此次活动中,该组织与致力于墨西哥自然资源保护工作的合作伙伴交流想法、分享经验,并共同探讨所面临的挑战。“自然保护知识共享周” 为各方提供了加强合作的机会,也为提升保护工作成效探索了新策略。
下萨斯奎哈纳河护水者(美国宾夕法尼亚州) 与切萨皮克护水者联盟(美国马里兰州),经过十多年的倡导与法律行动,以及 1 年半的保密调解,最终就科诺温戈大坝为期 50 年的运营许可达成和解协议,协议涉及金额达 3.41 亿美元。星座能源公司同意出资实施运营改进措施与环保项目,通过减少和缓解大坝排水及运营对萨斯奎哈纳河、切萨皮克湾及其支流造成的影响,达到可执行的水质标准。协议条款包括运营改进措施,以及为水质与抗灾项目、垃圾杂物清理、野生动物通道建设、淡水贻贝恢复、疏浚工程和入侵物种治理提供前期资金与持续年度资金支持。该组织推动并实现的一项重要成果是:为大坝水库的疏浚开辟了路径 —— 目前该水库已蓄满泥沙,丧失了拦沙能力。此外,在未来 50 年里,下萨斯奎哈纳河护水者与切萨皮克护水者联盟将与马里兰州环境部合作,继续参与该大坝运营许可认证及和解协议部分内容的执行工作。
奥兰治县海岸护水者(美国加利福尼亚州) 联合当地码头所有者,通过其 “贝壳串养项目”成功培育了 1600 只本土奥林匹亚牡蛎!奥兰治县海岸护水者海洋恢复项目主任凯莎・肯尼解释道,一只成年牡蛎每天最多可过滤 50 加仑(约 189 升)水。奥林匹亚牡蛎还能为鱼类及其他海洋生物提供栖息地,帮助海岸线抵御海平面上升的影响,并增强海岸生态系统的恢复力。“贝壳串养项目” 旨在利用收集并处理后的牡蛎壳,在修复后的牡蛎床上培育牡蛎;该项目将在未来多年内改善水质、稳固海岸线,并为海洋生物多样性提供支持。
圣安东尼奥湾护水者(美国得克萨斯州) 近期宣布,埃克森美孚公司将推迟其在得克萨斯州墨西哥湾沿岸新建大型塑料生产厂的计划 —— 该工厂最初计划建于卡尔霍恩县。
坦帕湾护水者(美国佛罗里达州) 与皮内拉斯县桑科斯特女子飞钓与少女协会合作,在第二届年度 “桑科斯特女子飞钓锦标赛” 期间,教授少女们飞钓技巧。活动结束后,坦帕湾护水者从主办方处获得了 1585 美元捐赠,这笔资金将用于支持该组织持续开展相关工作。

NEWS FROM THE MOVEMENT
Altamaha Riverkeeper (Georgia, U.S.) along with The Center for Biological Diversity, One Hundred Miles, Skidaway Audubon, and Coastal Plain Conservation Group, submitted a petition on September 30 to the State of Georgia, urging officials to require bycatch reduction devices on all blue crab pots in near-shore waters where terrapins are frequently found. When installed on crab pot entrance funnels, these small and inexpensive devices prevent most terrapins from entering the pot, while having little to no effect on crab haul.
Black Warrior Riverkeeper (Alabama, U.S.) Staff Attorney Eva Dillard recently discussed the Alabama Surface Mining Commission's decision to suspend methane monitoring for expanding coal mines. Alabama officials have informed the federal government that they will not require methane monitoring in these mines, which pose potential explosion risks. After months of pressure from local residents, federal officials issued Alabama a ten-day notice meant to force state officials to address the dangers of methane emissions from active coal mines. However, state officials extended the deadline by six months after agreeing to give coal mining companies 90 days to submit updated plans detailing how they intend to comply with the requirements. The deadline passed on September 30, and Alabama Surface Mining Commission Director Kathy Love decided to suspend any requirements for methane monitoring plans indefinitely. Eva Dillard believes this decision is reckless and prioritizes the financial interests of coal companies over the safety of surrounding communities.
La Paz Waterkeeper (Mexico) attended the Knowledge Sharing Week in Conservation (SICC), organized by Fondo Mexicano. During this event, the group exchanged ideas, shared experiences, and discussed challenges with allies dedicated to conserving and protecting the country’s natural resources. The SICC provided an opportunity to strengthen partnerships and discover new strategies to enhance their efforts.
Lower Susquehanna Riverkeeper (Pennsylvania, U.S.) and Waterkeepers Chesapeake (Maryland, U.S.) secured a settlement agreement on the Conowingo Dam's 50-year license, valued at $341 million, after over a decade of advocacy and legal actions, and 1 1/2 years of confidential mediation. Constellation agrees to fund and implement operational improvements and environmental projects to meet enforceable water quality standards by reducing and mitigating the impacts associated with the dam's discharge and operation on the Susquehanna River, the Chesapeake Bay, and its tributaries. The terms of the agreement include operational improvements, as well as upfront and ongoing annual payments for water quality and resiliency projects, trash and debris removal, wildlife passage, freshwater mussel restoration, dredging, and invasive species management. One thing they pushed for and achieved was a pathway to dredge the dam's reservoir, which is full and has lost its trapping capacity. In addition, Lower Susquehanna Riverkeeper and Waterkeepers Chesapeake have an ongoing role in implementing aspects of the certification and settlement agreement for the next 50 years, in partnership with the Maryland Department of the Environment.
Orange County Coastkeeper (California, U.S.) along with local dock owners, has successfully recruited 1,600 native Olympia oysters through its Shell String Project! Kaysha Kenny, Marine Restoration Director at Orange County Coastkeeper, explains that one adult oyster can filter up to 50 gallons of water every single day. Olympia oysters also provide habitat for fish and other marine life, help buffer coastlines against rising sea levels, and strengthen the resilience of coastal ecosystems. The Shell String Project aims to use collected, cured oyster shells to grow oysters on restored beds, which will improve water quality, stabilize shorelines, and support marine biodiversity for years to come.
San Antonio Bay Waterkeeper (Texas, U.S.) recently announced that Exxon Mobil will postpone its plans for a large new plastics production plant on the Gulf Coast of Texas, where it initially planned to build in Calhoun County. Tampa Bay Waterkeeper (Florida, U.S.) partnered with Suncoast Ladies Fly and Girls Inc. of Pinellas to teach young girls how to fly fish during the second annual Suncoast Ladies Fly Tournament. Tampa Bay Waterkeeper then received a donation of $1,585 from the organizers, which will be used to support their ongoing efforts.
