保護行動動態

美國佐治亞州奧塔馬哈河護水者聯合生物多樣性中心、百里組織、斯基達韋奧杜邦協會以及海岸平原保護組織，于9月30日向佐治亞州政府提交請愿書，懇請官員要求在近岸水域（擬龜頻繁出沒區域）的所有藍蟹捕撈籠上安裝兼捕減少裝置。這類裝置小巧且成本低廉，安裝在蟹籠入口漏斗處時，能阻止大多數擬龜進入蟹籠，同時對螃蟹捕撈量幾乎沒有影響。

美國哥倫比亞特區阿納科斯蒂亞河護水者特雷·謝拉德近期就一項新提案政策展開討論，該政策擬對大多數飲料容器征收10美分可退還押金，以鼓勵回收利用。在阿納科斯蒂亞河漂浮的所有垃圾中，塑料瓶占比達60%（按重量計算）。參考塑料袋收費政策的成功經驗，預計該押金政策實施后，地面亂扔的塑料瓶數量將有所減少。不過，許多人認為該政策可能導致各類日常飲料價格上漲，多家大型分銷商及全國性飲料協會已對這項法案表示反對。

大盆地水資源網絡（美國內華達州大盆地河護水者的上級機構）、生命河流組織/科羅拉多河護水者（美國猶他州）、拯救科羅拉多組織（美國科羅拉多州普德河護水者的上級機構），以及美國猶他州大鹽湖護水者的上級機構猶他河委員會，聯合其他合作方發布了一份新報告。該報告為現任及未來的聯邦政府行政部門提供了9項建議，旨在有效監測該地區水庫水位下降情況，同時監測積雪量與徑流量變化。報告懇請代表7個流域州的主要談判人員，在制定未來水資源及社區發展最優方案時，將該報告框架納入考量。此外，各方也希望公眾能以這份報告為契機，進一步提高環保意識并積極參與相關行動。

美國紐約州哈得孫河護水者發布警告稱，近期檢測發現哈得孫河與索米爾河的水質均未通過糞便細菌檢測。檢測結果顯示，部分區域的糞便污染水平超出聯邦標準限值10倍甚至更多。哈得孫河護水者科學總監香農·羅巴克表示，當前污染程度已十分嚴重，游泳者若不慎吸入河水，可能會引發胃腸道不適。哈得孫河護水者還發布了一份地圖，標注出哈得孫河及其支流各區域的水質等級。

美國亞拉巴馬州莫比爾灣護水者就亞拉巴馬大學近期的一項研究作出回應。該研究顯示，當地河流沉積物中砷和鎘的含量偏高。莫比爾灣護水者在聲明中強調，這些有毒金屬會帶來嚴重健康風險，包括誘發癌癥和導致腎衰竭。盡管如此，亞拉巴馬電力公司仍將2100萬噸煤灰儲存在一個未做防滲處理的礦坑中，而該礦坑就直接位于莫比爾河河岸。此外，莫比爾灣護水者正敦促該電力公司制定煤灰回收利用的時間表與方案，目前此事已提交美國第十一巡回上訴法院審理。

NEWS FROM THE MOVEMENT

Altamaha Riverkeeper (Georgia, U.S.) along with The Center for Biological Diversity, One Hundred Miles, Skidaway Audubon, and Coastal Plain Conservation Group, submitted a petition on September 30 to the State of Georgia, urging officials to require bycatch reduction devices on all blue crab pots in near-shore waters where terrapins are frequently found. When installed on crab pot entrance funnels, these small and inexpensive devices prevent most terrapins from entering the pot, while having little to no effect on crab haul.

Anacostia Riverkeeper (District of Columbia, U.S.), Trey Sherard, recently discussed a newly proposed policy that would introduce a 10-cent refundable deposit on most beverage containers to encourage recycling. Plastic bottles account for 60% of the weight of all trash floating in the Anacostia River. Based on the success of the bag fee, it is expected that there will be fewer bottles littering the ground. However, many believe this policy may lead to increased prices for many everyday beverages. Several large distributors and national beverage associations have opposed this legislation.

Great Basin Water Network, the parent organization for Great Basin Waterkeeper (Nevada, U.S.), Living Rivers/Colorado Riverkeeper (Utah, U.S.), Save the Colorado (parent organization for Poudre Waterkeeper (Colorado, U.S.), and Utah Rivers Council, the parent organization of Great Salt Lake Waterkeeper (Utah, U.S.), along with other partners, released a new report that provides nine recommendations for the current and future federal administrations to effectively monitor the decline in reservoir levels alongside the region’s snowpacks and runoff. This report urges the principal negotiators representing the seven basin states to consider this framework when deciding what is best for their water resources and communities moving forward. It is also hoped that the public will use this document as a catalyst for increased awareness and engagement.

Hudson Riverkeeper (New York, U.S.) has issued a warning after recent testing revealed that both the Hudson River and the Saw Mill River failed water quality tests for fecal bacteria. The tests showed that some locations had fecal pollution levels exceeding the federally accepted limits by ten times or more. Shannon Roback, the Science Director for Hudson Riverkeeper, stated that the contamination levels are significant enough that if a swimmer were to accidentally swallow the water, they could experience gastrointestinal issues. Hudson Riverkeeper has also published a map showing the water quality levels in the Hudson River and its tributaries.

Mobile Baykeeper (Alabama, U.S.) has responded to a recent study from the University of Alabama, which revealed elevated levels of arsenic and cadmium in river sediments. In their statement, Mobile Baykeeper highlighted that these toxic metals are associated with serious health risks, including cancer and kidney failure. Despite this, Alabama Power continues to store 21 million tons of coal ash in an unlined pit situated directly on the banks of the Mobile River. Also, Mobile Baykeeper is urging the power company to provide a timeline and plan for recycling coal ash, which is currently under appeal in the 11th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals.
