HALLS CREEK PRESERVATION FUND CONTINUES TO INVEST TIME AND MONEY IN THE PERMITTING PROCESS TO GAIN APPROVAL FOR THE ULTIMATE DREDGING OF THE HALLS CREEK CHANNEL. THE PROCESS REQUIRES APPROVAL FROM A LARGE NUMBER OF FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT AGENCIES (TOWN OF BARNSTABLE CONSERVATION DEPT, COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT, AS AN EXAMPLE). FEEDBACK TO OUR PROPOSAL HAS BEEN MET WITH ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS AND THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL STUDY. QUESTIONS INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: 1. WHAT WILL THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT BE TO THE NEIGHBORING COMMUNITIES? 2. HOW DO WE KNOW THAT DREDGING WILL INCREASE THE TIDAL FLOW? 3. WHAT COULD THE IMPACT OF DREDGING BE TO THE MARSH LAND AND HABITANTS OF THE SAME? HCPF HAS RAISED MONEY TO PAY FOR 3RD-PARTY EXPERTS TO ANSWER THESE IMPORTANT QUESTIONS, WITHOUT WHICH THE PROJECT CANNOT PROCEED. THE PERMITTING PROCESS IS LENGTHY, BUT (BASED ON FEEDBACK FROM THESE SAME GOVERNMENT AGENCIES) WE ARE MAKING PROGRESS. HCPF ALSO USED MONEY ON ACCOUNT TO REPAIR WINTER STORM BREACHES IN THE SO-CALLED BARRIER BEACH, WHICH SERVES AS A NATURAL PROTECTOR OF THE COASTLINE (FROM THESE SAME WINTER STORMS). FINALLY, HCPF DID INVEST MONEY TO EXPLORE POSSIBLE GRANT OPPORTUNITIES. 0 38922 38922 JAMES HERRINGTON PRESIDENT 15.00 0 0 0 DANIEL SERPICO TREASURER 15.00 0 0 0 ROBERT FAULCONER CLERK 15.00 0 0 0 HAMILTON SHEPLEY DIRECTOR 1.00 0 0 0 THOMAS COLUMBO DIRECTOR 1.00 0 0 0 SEAN O'NEIL DIRECTOR 1.00 0 0 0 NICHOLAS LAZARES DIRECTOR 1.00 0 0 0 JAMES SHEA DIRECTOR 1.00 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 MA DANIEL SERPICO PO BOX 505 WEST HYANNISPORT MA 02672 6179473898 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 72500 75000 106000 68200 5000 326700 72500 75000 106000 68200 5000 326700 253136 73564 3688 3688 330388 0.22270 0.27150 X HALLS CREEK PRESERVATION FUND MAINTAINS A CONTINUOUS AND BONA FIDE PROGRAM FOR SOLICITATION OF FUNDS FROM THE GENERAL PUBLIC.
