With Summer Approaching, EPA Offers Connecticut $224,290 to Monitor Coastal Beaches
Launched two summers ago, EPA's New England Beaches Initiative selected 11 flagship beaches across New England, including Ocean Beach Park and Rocky Neck in East Lyme. These beaches were chosen as models for other beach managers and are based on several criteria: serving large populations; a history of beach closures due to pollution; high quality monitoring already in place; and a strong potential for state and federal resources to be used. ... Across New England last year, about one fourth of the region's 1,000 coastal beaches were closed at least one day last summer due to pollution, for a total of about 1,000 missed beach days. That's a tangible improvement from 2001, when the region's coastal beaches had nearly 1,400 beach closure days. ... [Read More]

The couple was to have five daughters and six sons, but many of them died at an early age. ... [Read More]
Miami Beach Wins All-America City Award
Dorothy Ridings', Chairwoman of the AAC Jury, introduced Miami Beach by saying: "This community embraced diversity and embraced cultural cooperation. This community created a broad based collaborative to improve public services. This community came together to commit new resources to its neighborhoods. The City of Miami Beach!" ... "Neighborhood Services" works to improve the coordination of neighborhood assets and helps residents access and align City resources through training, education, enhanced communication and information sharing, and to assist in the identification and representation of community needs for the continued development and revitalization of the community. "Planned Progress" began as a coalition, spearheaded by the Miami Beach Chamber of Commerce in conjunction with concerned residents, community organizations, and the city government to obtain input and identify the improvements that the community felt was needed. After an aggressive "My Neighborhood Now" grassroots campaign and extensive community meetings, residents agreed to pass general obligation bonds so that the improvements would become possible. The $92 million dollars of GO Bond-funded "Planned Progress" capital improvements are now being implemented in each of the City's 13 separate neighborhoods. TIP (Truancy Intervention Program ...
