NPR/NGS RADIO EXPEDITIONS Show: Dry Tortugas Log of DAT #: 4 Engineer: Leo del Aguila Date: June 30, 2001 Billy Causey (Billy) Mark Fonseca (Mark) 0:10 Alex talking over ambi. noise of a boat and waves. Alex: Day two of the expedition. Steaming northwest from Dry Tortugas fort off to meet the Ferrel. Early in the morning, day two ... (six or seven times). The Irene C is steaming northwest from the Dry Tortugas fort where we anchored overnight... until 2:57. 2:57 - 5:50 ambi noise of boat, waves. louder around 3:28 -4:02. Good foaming splashing sound around 4: 17 -4:35, also 4:52, 5 :06 -5 :20. 5:51 Leo: This is dat 4, and the same setup. 190i MS, and going into ?? and then a D-8. Nothing has changed 6:25 off 6:35 Alex: It's 9:30 on the morning of the 30th and we've been steaming away from the fort and we're headed for the Farrell and Billy's just seen something out on the horizon that's interested him. What is it, Billy? 6:53 Billy: well, what we see out on the horizon is a shrimp boat that has been shrimping all night and they have actually moved into shallow water, dropped their anchor, and the shrimpers tend to clean their decks and then they rest for the day. And what we're seeing is that they are outside the Tortugas Ecological Reserve, whereas previously they would be anchoring up inside the reserve. So we're starting to see that the shrimpers have started to comply, particularly in this comer of the reserve, and that's encouraging 7:27 Alex: You were saying they're tough people and maybe not that kindly disposed to sanctuary supervising and regulations and rules they have to follow. 7:37 Billy: Well, I'm very typical to make their living out on the water .. They have a rather independent life. They do provide a very important seafood commodity. Paint shrimp is the number one seafood landing in the state of Florida. And it's a very important product around the Gulf Coast, so these shrimpers come out and they tend to lead a somewhat independent life. And when they go to sea, they go to sea for a long period of time, leaving their families back on the dock, back on shore. And the last thing they want to see is some superintendent of the sanctuary showing up on their doorstep, not only waking them up in the morning from their rest but starting to throw rules and regulations on them. So we really have a lot of work to do with groups like shrimpers or any commercial fishing groups, or recreational fishing organizations. And that is getting the word out about this reserve. It's encouraging to me to see that he shrimpers are complying and they are anchoring up outside the reserve and it's not implemented for another day or two. 9:05 You really have to be honest about the mariners and people who make their living off the sea ...they're some of the hardest working individuals I've ever encountered .. .it can also be ...builds a certain amount of independence. The sea does that to people and I think that's why people spend a long time at sea ...you have to think about that mindset and independence when you're doing something as complicated and complex as establishing an ecological reserve that is 151 square nautical miles. People that make their living on the water, I have to say, there are a lot of very hard working ... honest... commercial fisherman ... We need to respect their rights ...and need them to protect our resource ...They're not the ones wh... (Notes truncated)
