CRWA HOSTS NUMEROUS STUDENT INTERNS EACH YEAR AND SUPPORT THE RITA BARRON FELLOWSHIP, A ONE YEAR POSITION FOR A YOUNG PROFESSIONAL ENTERING THE FIELDS OF WATERSHED SCIENCE AND MANAGEMENT. WE ARE QUOTED REGULARLY IN THE MEDIA AND HOST NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL GROUPS FOR EDUCATIONAL AND NETWORKING PURPOSES.TWINNINGWE ARE COMMITTED TO SHARING BEST PRACTICES AND EXCHANGING KNOWLEDGE WITH OTHER WATERSHED RESTORATION PRACTITIONERS. WITH FUNDING FROM THE INTERNATIONAL RIVERFOUNDATION AS PART OF THE RIVERPRIZE, WE HAVE DEVELOPED A THREE-YEAR RIVER RESTORATION "TWINNING" PROJECT FOR THE URBAN RIVERS IN JARABACOA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE NATURE CONSERVANCY DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, PLAN YAQUE, A LOCAL NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATION, AND THE NATIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL SCHOOL, A POST-SECONDARY SCHOOL. THE PROJECT INVOLVES COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT, THE DEVELOPMENT AND SUPPORT OF VOLUNTEER "CITIZEN SCIENTISTS," TRAINING AND CAPACITY BUILDING FOR LOCAL PARTNERS, AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF A LONG-TERM RIVER RESTORATION PLAN. THIS YEAR, WE HOSTED TEN DELEGATES REPRESENTING DOMINICAN ADVOCACY AND GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS FOR A WEEK OF COLLABORATION AND TECHNICAL TRAINING.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0URBAN SMART SEWERINGTHIS INNOVATIVE MULTI-YEAR PROJECT IS INVESTIGATING THE FEASIBILITY OF SMALL SCALE DISTRIBUTED WASTEWATER TREATMENT AND RESOURCE RECOVERY COMBINED WITH DISTRICT ENERGY SYSTEMS AND NEIGHBORHOOD GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE INSTALLATIONS IN THE URBAN CORE. THIS APPROACH INCLUDES PROCESSING FOOD WASTE, REUSE OF TREATED WATER, AND ENERGY PRODUCTION TO REDUCE GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS, REDUCE FLOODING IMPACTS, IMPROVE WATER QUALITY AND CREATE GREEN CORRIDORS. THIS PROJECT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO RELIEVE OVERBURDENED WATER INFRASTRUCTURE, PRODUCE ENERGY WHERE IT IS NEEDED AND DECREASE WATER LOSSES, POLLUTION AND OTHER ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS TYPICAL OF LARGE CENTRALIZED SEWERS. IT WILL ALSO LESSEN THE LIKELIHOOD OF A COMPLETE SYSTEM FAILURE IN THE EVENT OF A MAJOR DISASTER AND HELP DENSE URBAN AREAS ADAPT TO CLIMATE CHANGE.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc0ADVOCACY, POLICY & LAWCRWA IS INVOLVED IN EVERY MAJOR DECISION AFFECTING THE RIVER. ADVOCACY INCLUDES REVIEWING ALL MAJOR PROJECTS IN THE WATERSHED, CHALLENGING PERMITS ADMINISTRATIVELY AND OCCASIONALLY IN COURT, APPEARING BEFORE LOCAL BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS, PROTECTING PUBLIC TRUST LANDS AND ACCESS TO PARKLANDS, LOBBYING THE MASSACHUSETTS LEGISLATURE FOR AND AGAINST ENVIRONMENTAL AND WATER-RELATED LEGISLATION, AND WORKING WITH MANY PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS ON ISSUES OF NATIONAL, STATE AND REGIONAL SIGNIFICANCE SUCH AS CLIMATE CHANGE, SMART GROWTH AND WATER RESOURCE PROTECTION. OUR STRONG SCIENCE SUPPORTS AND INFORMS OUR ADVOCACY AND THE POSITIONS WE ADOPT. IMPROVING POLICIES AND REGULATIONS FOR THE PROTECTION AND SUSTAINABILITY OF THE NATURAL WATER ENVIRONMENT ARE CORE COMPONENTS OF CRWA'S WORK.SUSTAINABLE WATER MANAGEMENT INITIATIVECRWA'S CAMPAIGN FOR SUSTAINABLE WATER RESOURCES, WHICH BEGAN WITH A SERIES OF TEST CASES IN THE IPSWICH RIVER WATERSHED, LED TO THE CREATION OF THE MASSACHUSETTS' SUSTAINABLE WATER MANAGEMENT INITIATIVE (SWMI) AND RESULTED IN THE ADOPTION OF NEW WATER WITHDRAWAL PERMITTING REGULATIONS THAT INCORPORATE BIOLOGICALLY-BASED STREAMFLOW CRITERIA AND REQUIRES THAT WITHDRAWAL IMPACTS BE MINIMIZED AND MITIGATED. BY REQUIRING MITIGATION, OR OFFSETS, THE PERMITTING PROGRAM BRINGS A MORE HOLISTIC APPROACH TO WATER, WASTEWATER AND STORM-WATER. IN 2014, CRWA BEGAN REPRESENTING ENVIRONMENTAL GROUPS IN THE BLACKSTONE RIVER WATERSHED, ADMINISTRATIVELY CHALLENGING THE TOWN OF SHREWSBURY, MASSACHUSETTS WITHDRAWAL PERMIT.STORMWATER MANAGEMENTIN 2014, WE REVIEWED AND TESTIFIED AT THE U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY ("U.S. EPA") HEARINGS ON THE DRAFT SMALL MUNICIPAL SEPARATE STORM SEWER SYSTEM (MS4) NATIONAL POLLUTANT DISCHARGE ELIMINATION SYSTEM ("NPDES") GENERAL PERMIT FOR MASSACHUSETTS. THE DRAFT PERMIT BUILDS ON THE 2003 GENERAL PERMIT AND REQUIRES EACH MUNICIPALITY IN THE WATERSHED TO DEVELOP A PHOSPHORUS CONTROL PLAN. WE ALSO EDUCATED CONSERVATION COMMISSIONS ABOUT THEIR AUTHORITY UNDER THE WETLANDS PROTECTION ACT TO REQUIRE PROJECT APPLICANTS TO MEET DAILY NUTRIENT LOADING LIMITS ESTABLISHED FOR THE WATERSHED.AMERICAN SHAD RESTORATIONA SETTLEMENT WITH GENON ENERGY, LLC ("GENON") OF ITS SURFACE WATER DISCHARGE PERMIT IN THE CHARLES BY THE U.S. EPA, CRWA AND CONSERVATION LAW FOUNDATION, RESULTED IN A PLANNED 95% REDUCTION IN THE FACILITY'S THERMAL DISCHARGE TO THE CHARLES LOWER BASIN. IN 2014, WITH THE COMPLETION OF THE 7,000 FOOT STEAM PIPELINE BETWEEN THE PLANT AND THE CITY OF BOSTON, THIS DISCHARGE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED. THE SETTLEMENT ALSO ESTABLISHED A FUND MANAGED BY CRWA FOR THE RESTORATION OF AMERICAN SHAD AND OTHER MIGRATORY FISH. SINCE 2006, THE U.S. FISH AND WILDLIFE SERVICE, MASSACHUSETTS DIVISION OF MARINE FISHERIES ("DMF") AND CRWA HAVE PARTNERED TO RELEASE 20 MILLION HATCHERY-REARED SHAD FRY INTO THE RIVER'S LAKES DISTRICT. WITH THE GENON FUNDS, DMF HAS BEEN CONDUCTING MONITORING IN THE VICINITY OF THE WATERTOWN DAM, OF SHAD RETURNING TO SPAWN. WE ARE EXPLORING OPTIONS FOR IMPROVING AND PROTECTING HABITAT BELOW THE DAM, MAPPING HABITAT IN THE LAKES DISTRICT AND ASSESSING WATER QUALITY.MEDFIELD STATE HOSPITALCRWA'S CHALLENGE OF A WETLAND'S ORDER FOR THE REMEDIATION OF THE FORMER MEDFIELD STATE HOSPITAL ULTIMATELY LED TO THE TOWN OF MEDFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS AND THE COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS DIVISION OF CAPITAL ASSET MANAGEMENT AND MAINTENANCE NEGOTIATING A BETTER SITE CLEANUP AND RIVER RESTORATION PROJECT.
