SUMMARY:Webinar: Keeping Your Assets Above Water
DESCRIPTION:Climate change and its impact on water supplies is obviously a hot topic in today’s news\, especially as agencies look again towards mandatory water conservation measures and cutbacks in water deliveries for a broad range of uses. One of the most hotly debated topics is the subject of water storage. We hear a lot about the potential for new dams\, and that is certainly worth discussing\, but we are only recently looking at opportunities to manage our existing dams and reservoirs differently in order to maximize their water storage capabilities.  \nWe are looking at a paradigm shift in the way things have been done over the last hundred years or more\, and now water managers are looking at applying technology (such as the newly coined “Forecast Informed Reservoir Operations” or “FIRO” programs)\, or through changes in operations\, such as the restoration of the water storage capacity of the existing dams that has been lost through sedimentation.  Fortunately\, there are now examples throughout the state of initial efforts to address this challenge. \nThis presentation provides several examples of how communities are preparing (or not) for the anticipated effects climate change and the “new normal” of expected water supplies and storage. We will consider the environmental and social impacts\, as well as potential impacts to flood protection and hydropower energy production that might result from a paradigm shift in future reservoir and water storage operations.

SUMMARY:The Long Road from Pollution to Protection: 50 Years of the Clean Water Act
DESCRIPTION:We all live in a watershed\, and our human footprints impact them all. Join us for a living history of the state of water quality in Maine by aquatic biologist Matt Scott. Matt will focus on the history of Maine’s polluted waterways based on past records and deep personal and work history. The beginning of this living history perhaps dates back to the industrial revolution with Maine’s recovery from the great depression and World War II. Water quality degradation of our aquatic environment continued and it took decades for this problem to become evident and influence public policy. During this time\, Maine’s major rivers (St John\, Penobscot\, Kennebec\, Androscoggin\, Presumpscot\, Saco and their major tributaries) were heavily impacted by pollution. However\, with the passage of the Clean Water Act (CWA) in 1972\, led by Maine Senator Ed Muskie\, things were set to change for the better. We made progress in lake protection and river and stream water quality improvement\, beginning with treatment of major municipal and industrial waste We also saw the adoption of biological with narrative and numerical standards developed by the Maine Dept. of Environmental Protection’s Biological Division led by David Courtemanch and his staff. From 2005-2015\, Maine was able to demonstrate how far it had come with a new classification system and mapping of those waters that have been protected by revised and new water quality standards.

SUMMARY:Getting into the Habit(at): Assessing Shallow Water Habitat in Maine Lakes
DESCRIPTION:Habitat in the shallow areas of lakes is important for all lake life\, but it can be degraded by loss of shoreland vegetation and poorly managed human development on lakeshores. We have developed methods to determine what natural shallow water habitat looks like in Maine lakes\, and measure how it is affected by human-induced activities along lakeshores. These surveys will help to determine which lakes need the most shoreland rehabilitation to help support healthy habitat. This presentation will discuss how those surveys are conducted and what the results mean for lakes in Maine.

SUMMARY:Benthic Harmful Cyanobacteria Bloom (HCB-2) Training
DESCRIPTION:Strategies for Preventing and Managing Harmful Cyanobacteria Blooms (Two Part Series)\nThe Harmful Cyanobacteria Blooms (HCBs) training reviews key information found in the two ITRC HCB Guidance Documents\, the 2021 Strategies for Preventing and Managing Harmful Cyanobacterial Blooms (HCB-1) and the 2022 companion document focused on benthic HCBs (HCB-2). ITRC’s HCB-2 focuses on the ecology\, toxin production\, management\, and mitigation of benthic HCBs and is a companion document to the HCB-1 document released by ITRC in March 2021. \nCyanobacteria are microscopic\, photosynthetic organisms that can be found naturally in all aquatic systems. Under certain conditions\, cyanobacteria can multiply and become very abundant\, discoloring the water throughout a water body or accumulating at the surface. These occurrences are known as “harmful cyanobacterial blooms (HCBs).” HCBs can occur in many parts of a water body. Planktonic HCBs occur when cyanobacteria dominate the open water of water bodies. ITRC’s HCB-1 guidance includes information about planktonic HCBs. \nIn addition to being suspended in the open water\, some cyanobacterial species grow attached to surfaces in a water body. These attached cyanobacteria can grow at the bottom of a water body (benthic zone) but may also be found nearer to the surface growing on submerged vegetation or woody debris. In any of these habitats the benthic cyanobacterial mats can produce and release cyanotoxins into the environment. When cyanobacteria proliferate as attached mats in benthic habitats instead of planktonic blooms\, they present unique challenges to evaluating and communicating the public health and environmental risks caused by this less familiar appearance of cyanobacteria. \nHCB-1 Training\nThe Harmful Cyanobacteria Bloom (HCB-1) training provides an overview of cyanobacteria (particularly planktonic blooms) and their management\, covering five sections from the ITRC HCB-1 guidance document: \n\nIntroduction to the Cyanobacteria (Section 3)\nMonitoring (Section 4)\nCommunication and Response Planning (Section 5)\nManagement and Control (Section 6)\nNutrient Management (Section 7)\n\nHCB-2 Training\nThe Benthic Harmful Cyanobacteria Bloom (HCB-2) training provides an overview of benthic cyanobacteria and their management\, covering five sections from the ITRC HCB-2 guidance document: \n\nIntroduction to the Benthic Cyanobacteria (Section 1)\nCyanotoxins (Section 2)\nMonitoring for Benthic Cyanobacteria (Section 3)\nIntroduction to Treatment Strategies (Section 4)\nCommunication and Response Planning for Benthic Cyanobacteria (Section 5)\n\nAfter both training’s\, you should understand: \n\nThe basic ecology and physiology of planktonic and benthic cyanobacteria\, and the harmful effects they have on health\, the environment\, and local economies\nAn overview of cyanotoxin classes and available cyanotoxin thresholds for human health (recreational and drinking water) and domestic animals\nCommon approaches to monitoring for cyanobacteria and cyanotoxins\, and how to build a monitoring program\nThe importance of good communication and coordinated response during HCBs\, and the elements of a good response plan\nAvailable options for in-lake management and control of HCBs\, including an introduction to possible treatment options for benthic cyanobacteria\nNutrient management options to reduce the likelihood of HCBs in your water body\n\nWe encourage you to use the ITRC HCB Resources (HCB-1 and HCB-2) and the recorded trainings to learn about planktonic and benthic cyanobacteria\, monitoring approaches\, management of active blooms\, and prevention of blooms in the future. For regulators and other government agency staff\, these materials present the current state of the science on cyanobacteria and approaches to manage and reduce the occurrence of blooms. We share examples and resources from across the country that can help you develop approaches of your own. While the training makes every effort to keep the information accessible to a wide audience\, it is assumed that the participants will have some basic technical understanding of biology\, lake management\, chemistry\, and environmental sciences. As with other emerging concerns\, our understanding of HCBs continues to advance. These trainings help you build HCB response plans now and point you to resources that will keep you up to date in the future.
