SEAKFHP unveils draft strategic action plan at 2013 SE AK Watershed Symposiumseakfhp
The Southeast Alaska Fish Habitat Partnership (SEAKFHP), a candidate partnership under the National Fish Habitat Action Plan, works to foster cooperative fish habitat conservation in freshwater, estuarine and marine ecosystems across southeast Alaska. The partnership formed under the belief that many benefits result when multiple partners come together to share resources, align strategic actions, and speak with a united voice about the conservation and value of productive and intact fish habitats at both local and regional scales. Partner expertise and focus is currently on populations of resident species and anadromous salmonids in freshwater systems as well as anadromous and marine species in estuarine and nearshore habitats. Our mission is to foster and facilitate regionally relevant strategies that will conserve and sustain the region’s fish habitat, fisheries-based economy, and culture. To achieve this broad mission the partnership is working to develop a strategic action plan. In this presentation we share a general overview of the partnership and introduce our draft strategic action plan.

Slides from my closing keynote for the Talis Insight Europe 2016 conference. In this talk I cover global warming and other "extinction level events", and how we might go about preserving the core of human knowledge and culture in an offplanet backup. I show how future technologies like interstellar travel and DNA based data storage are complemented by here and now technologies like cubesats/nanosats and the likes of Project Gutenberg and Wikipedia. All of this is a metaphor for how we should "think big", and looking at the changing role of the librarian.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Editor's Notes
Fish-Friendly Business Alliance; includes over 30 members statewide. Online business directory http://www.coral.org/fishfriendly Members comprised of commercial diving and snorkeling-related businesses . Collaborative effort between the State of Hawaii Division of Aquatic Resources, Project S.E.A.-Link, and the Coral Reef Alliance (CORAL). Outreach efforts focused on both the consumer and the supplier. Campaign began in fall 2006 Postcards that local residents and visitors fill out , writing to companies that promote fish-feeding. Boss Frog’s Dive and Surf on Maui first company to change its business practices and sign on to the campaign. “ Fish-Friendly Establishment” decal designed for companies who sign on to the company to raise customer awareness and publicly designate their responsible practices. Supported by the state of Hawaii’s Recreational Impacts to Reefs Local Action Strategy feeding fish can result in a decrease in natural grazing behavior, which in turn could promote a cascade of negative ecological effects upon marine communities. If these impacts to the reef were not enough to discourage snorkelers from fish feeding, this practice can also promote behavioral changes in local fishes. At the Honolua Bay education station coordinated by Project S.E.A.-Link, cases of fish bites continue to be documented, as snorkelers encounter aggressive and habituated fishes. Any business participating in this campaign will be added to the online director and receive a fish-friendly establishment decal and a CD of educational materials.

The Federal Water Pollution Control Act as amended (1972) is commonly referred to as the Clean Water Act (CWA). Many of the provisions of the Clean Water Act have resulted in programs designed to manage water quality. Often people equate water quality to water chemistry. If we look at the objectives of the Clean Water Act, we see that there are many variables and factors in addition to water chemistry that must be considered to protect the integrity of the water resource. Water quality includes physical, biological, and chemical data.
The Clean Water Act came about because people were unhappy with the impacts of polluted water. Fisheries were dying, it was not safe to swim in many waterbodies and a river actually caught on fire. The main goal of the Clean Water Act is “fishable swimmable” waters.
How is pollution controlled? Clean Water Act goals are implemented through water quality management and planning, discharge permit conditions, nonpoint source pollution control..
This diagram depicts the Water Quality Management (WQM) activities that the state conducts under the CWA programs, and how they are connected with each other. In the foreground, the lighter shaded areas identify the water quality management and planning process. The CWA requires a Continuing Planning Process (CPP) . Water Quality Standards (WQS) are the state’s goals for individual waterbodies and provide the basis for control decisions. Water Quality Monitoring activities provide the chemical , physical, and biological data needed to determine the quality of water and identify sources of pollutants. The primary assessment of water quality is the 305(b) report. This report and other assessments are used in the state’s WQM plans to identify priority water quality problems. The plans recommend control measures to attain the water quality goals. The control measures are implemented through issuing permits, funding of publicly-owned treatment works (POTW), instituting best management practices for nonpoint sources, and other means. This planning process is both reiterative and dynamic, in which requirements and emphasis can vary over time.
called designated uses , that stem from this goal. A designated use provides a way to cut through the complexity of all the factors and variables by getting to the bottom line question , “ Is the use supported? Can I fish or swim in these waters?”
IN 2002 CRTF identified six major threats to coral reefs and requested that each US jurisdiction develop LAS to address each of the priority threats. There are many threats to Hawaii’s reefs and we are focusing on 6 key threats with support from the US Coral Reef Task Force.
