Wells Reserve at Laudholm - 5/24/18 - Dr. John Waldman on Fish Migration with MKRA YCA
Atlantic rivers once ran silver with great runs of migrating salmon, shad, alewives and sturgeon; today these runs are only relics. Dr. John Waldman, aquatic biologist from Queens College, NY, will draw on his most recent book, Running Silver: Restoring Atlantic Rivers and Their Great Fish Migrations, to discuss why sea-river fish have dwindled in numbers, what we stand to lose, and actions needed to ensure their recovery, including new concepts for replacement of hydro-dams with alternative energy sources. Discover the past, present, and future of these fascinating fish through research, historical accounts, anecdotes, and images.

From Moody to Goose Rocks Part 5: Who Owns the Beach?
Who Owns the Beach?: Investigations into Historical Ownership of the Maine Coast
Maine has a complicated history when it comes to the ownership and use of its long coastline, particularly as it relates to the intertidal zone and the uplands that abut this area. The place we now call Maine was first settled by Europeans in the mid-17th century, and over time it became a part of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. When the United States achieved its independence, Maine remained a District of the State of Massachusetts until it achieved statehood in 1820. Throughout it all, property along the shore was granted and then sold and re-sold many times. One question that arises in cases before our State courts is: Who actually owns the land between the uplands and the low tideline and what uses are allowed by non-landowners? From where do the current landowners derive the title to their land?
This presentation by Robert Yarumian and Edwin Churchill reveals the findings of their recent coastal land deed research, in which they examined old property deeds and the transfer of ownership from the 1600s in the Town of Wells in an effort to determine who really owns the beach.
Edwin A. Churchill, Ph.D, is an historian who has been researching Maine history since the early 1970s. He specializes in early New England settlement and the Colonial Wars (1675 to 1763).
Robert A. Yarumian is a licensed surveyor who started Maine Boundary Consultants in 1998. The company, located in Buxton, specializes in boundary surveys and complicated deed research, often tracing parcels back to when a town was first settled.

From Moody to Goose Rocks Part 6: Maine’s Beaches Are Public Property
Join distinguished law professor Orlando E. Delogu as he advocates for a re-examination of court cases that ceded title to Maine’s intertidal lands to upland owners and limited public use of these lands to “fishing, fowling, and navigation.” An extended question and answer session will follow professor Delogu’s presentation.
The presentation is part of a multi-year series offered by the Wells Reserve that examines laws and policies affecting public use and private ownership of the Maine coastline.
Orlando Delogu is emeritus professor of law at the University of Maine School of Law. His most recent book, published in December 2017, is Maine’s Beaches are Public Property: The Bell Cases must be Reexamined.
Professor Delogu has taught and conducted research at the Law School for 51 years and has a long record of public service and engagement in land use, property and environmental law, and public policy. He served for five years on Maine's Board of Environmental Protection; he was a Portland City Councilor; he served five years on the Portland Planning Board; and he chaired the Association of American Law Schools' Environmental Law Section. He has traveled overseas to provide guidance to other countries on approaches and solutions to environmental issues and problems.
Professor Delogu has appeared before Congressional and Maine legislative committees; he has participated in cases dealing with environmental and land use issues as well as cases testing the limits of governmental tax and spending power. Professor Delogu is a regular contributor on land use, environmental and state/local government tax issues to the Maine Lawyers Review, the Portland Press Herald, the Forecaster, and other news outlets in Maine—over 75 pieces have been published in the last ten years.
Since 1981 Delogu has participated in the preparation of four amicus briefs that sought to protect public interests in intertidal lands and has published five Law Review articles addressing aspects of these issues. Professor Delogu received his BS degree from the University of Utah and an MS and JD degree from the University of Wisconsin.
From Moody to Goose Rocks Part 4: Perspectives from a Judge and an Access Advocate
The fourth lecture in an ongoing Wells Reserve at Laudholm series exploring public access and private ownership of Maine's shoreline — evolving laws and lessons learned.
Twenty-five years ago, the Maine Supreme Court issued a decision that has come to symbolize the conflict between public and private rights on the Maine coast. In the Moody Beach case, the court ruled that the public has very limited rights to use privately owned land in the intertidal zone (the land between high and low tides).
In this lecture, former Maine Supreme Court Justice Daniel Wathen and attorney and advocate Adam Steinman will present their perspectives on beach use and ownership issues.
Judge Wathen wrote the minority (dissenting) opinion in Bell v. the Town of Wells (Moody Beach case) in 1989, and joined the majority in Eaton v. the Town of Wells (Wells Beach case) in 2000.
Representing Surfrider's Maine chapter, Mr. Steinman successfully argued the issues of Public Trust Doctrine and the Colonial Ordinance in front of the Maine Supreme Judicial Court in McGarvey v. Whittredge to expand the definition of allowable uses in the intertidal zone to include SCUBA diving. He also filed briefs on behalf of Surfrider before the Law Court on Almeder v. Town of Kennebunkport (the Goose Rocks Beach case).
The Maine's Shoreline series is organized by the Wells Reserve at Laudholm, Maine Sea Grant College Program, and attorney and professor John Duff.
