  8. The “Ideal” Restoration Wheel

  9. But “Reality” Confounds Wheel MULTIPLE PARTNERS DIFFERENT AREAS OF INTEREST DIFFERENT FUNDING SOURCES MULTIPLE AGENCIES

  10. Despite Difficult Issues, This is Where We’re At: And getting better at this We are pretty good at this! But have some work to do with these others!

  11. So then….how to build coherence, prioritization, and goal setting into oyster restoration planning in Rhode Island?Five first steps….

  12. I. Shellfish Restoration Technical Working Group • Provides framework for coordination and communication, prioritization and goal setting • Multiple group representation • Form ‘break-out groups’ • Act as centralized body commenting on RI shellfish restoration = FACILITATES COMMUNICATION JAM

  13. II. Developing a systematic monitoring protocol • Monitoring is primary mechanism for understanding restoration project effectiveness • Thus, monitoring is a key activity for ensuring science-based management • Systematic —we should be monitoring similar parameters with comparable methods across projects Photo credit: Tristan Peter -Contesse.

  14. III. Integrated Monitoring: The Oyster Database • Coordinated data manage and storage abilities • Standardized data management • Data analyses • Explicit mechanisms for analyses to inform priorities and project implementation • Dissemination of results

  15. IV. Shellfish Bio-security Advisory Board • The CRMC BioSecurity Board is an advisory board to the Council concerning matters of aquatic diseases, genetically modified organisms, importation of non-indigenous species and other management issues necessary to protecting cultured and wild aquatic species.

  16. V. Rhode Island State Shellfish Restoration Coordinator • Secured by RWU with help from RISA and Senator Reed through NOAA Restoration Center • “Work-horse” of the technical working group • Facilitate the coordination and communication between shellfish restoration projects throughout the state; e.g.: • project monitoring • disease sampling • regional analysis
