"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 
Massachusetts Important Bird Area (IBA) Program
