In Massachusetts, we are defined, in large part, by our existence on water. The Atlantic Ocean is part of our history and our heritage. For centuries, our Atlantic waters have been used for fishing, recreation and navigation. In recent years, proposals for other uses, from gas pipelines liquefied natural gas facilities to desalinization projects and wind and wave energy projects have dramatically increased. These new proposals raise concerns about how to manage our marine resources amidst diverse proposals and intensified development pressures. The Massachusetts Oceans Act would tackle this disjointed approach and create a comprehensive plan for protecting and preserving our Atlantic resources.

Please call your state senator and ask him or to pass the Massachusetts Oceans Act.
