Gulf of Maine Council on the Marine
Environment

Dear Gulf of Maine Friends,

EPA-New England is pleased to be associated with the Gulf of Maine Council, its members and all those interested in promoting the ambitious goals and objectives designed to move us toward achieving a shared vision for the Gulf.

The challenges are many. The Gulf's resources, its water quality, its habitat, its fisheries benefit all of us. Preserving and protecting the Gulf are necessary to assure that it remains an environmentally rich and valuable resource. The efforts undertaken to date must be leveraged to assure its protection and preservation into the future.

EPA-New England will continue to provide as much support, guidance, and assistance as possible to further the efforts initiated under the start-up grant awarded by EPA for the Gulf of Maine Council's efforts. We look forward to contributing and realizing the results of these efforts.

With continued dedication we will reap the rewards of our efforts.

Sincerely,

John DeVillars
Regional Administrator-Region 1
US Environmental Protection Agency
