"Briefly, I’m very familiar with the S4 Program and the Stellwagen Bank
National Marine Sanctuary’s involvement and oversight. I’ve been working
with Anne-Marie during the development of this valuable
monitoring effort since its inception, so I can assure you that
Anne-Marie has done a splendid job in organizing and pulling together
this outstanding citizen science program." Wayne R. Peterson, Director of
