ATTEST_: By: Bart 11 lerk INDIAN RIVER COUNTY, FLORIDA, BY ITS BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS By Jon Tippin i rman THE SEBASTIAN RIVER MARICULTURE PROJECT A GRANT PROPOSAL SUBMITTED BY: Frank Lawlor Al Mitchell Charles Sembler Rep. Charles Sembler Jr. Julie Simmons INTRODUCTION This project is intended to integrate shell -fish mariculture into the existing vocational agriculture and science curriculum of Sebastian River Middle School. In doing so it will also link the agriculture and science curriculum; The importance of this "link" between classes is critical in the modern middle school. The addition of this exciting hands-on project will also increase student interest in the three year aquaculture program planned for the new Sebastian River High School (to be opened for the 94-95 school year). Industry support for this program from local producers is already enthusiastic. This exchange between shell -fish producers and the Sebastian River Mariculture Project (SRMP) will benefit both parties in terms of increased yields, sharing of information, and training. The location of Sebastian River Middle School (only five miles from the Indian River) in the heart of a growing shellfish mariculture region makes this clam grow -out project a needed component of the Indian River County School System. Students enrolled in the program will benefit from hands-on experience in clam production, record keeping, ecological monitoring, navigational, and water safety skills. Opportunities for public education through news media and citizen involvement will enhance the interacting role this industry has to the ecology of the Indian River Lagoon. Local clam farmers often discuss anecdotal evidence that links the recruitment of seagrass and an increase in blue crabs population levels to their leased sites. This project would allow the students to document this anecdotal evidence by measuring the percent cover of seagrasses before and after clams are planted and by measuring the seasonal fluctuation of blue crabs. By testing the study sites adjacent to and between the clam nets, the students will be able to determine if this form of farming increases the productivity of the Indian River Lagoon and whether recruitment of seagrasses was more likely to occur adjacent to the clam beds or between the individual study sites. Through the cooperation of the Indian River School System, the local commercial fishing industry and Florida Sea Grant, this project will become no less than a statewide model. Methods for the culture of clams (Mercenaria mercenaria) to be used in this project have been developed and field proven by Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute, Sembler Fish Inc., and other producers here in the Indian River. Final marketing of these farm -raised clams will be accomplished with the help of Advisory Board members. OBJECTIVES The primary goal of this project is to bring shellfish mariculture into the aquaculture and science curriculum at Sebastian River Middle School ( grades 6-8 ) as part of a hands-on, industry supported program. This goal will be achieved through the following objectives. I.To create a interdisciplinary aquaculture program at Sebastian River Middle Junior High School based on raising hard clams in the Indian River. 2.To maintain project records to include costs of production, growth rates, weather data, and water quality monitoring. 3.To maintain a close cooperative network between the Indian River School System, Harbor Branch Foundation, the Sea Grant Extension Program, the DEP and other regulatory agencies, and most importantly the local shellfish industry. 4.To educate the public through the local news media and citizen action groups. 5.To create a video chronology of this project to be produced by the Sea Grant Extension Program. 6.To make the program self supporting by it's third year through the sale of clams. METHODS The Indian River County Aquaculture Advisory Committee was established at meetings in November of 1993 between Frank Lawlor (of Florida Sea Grant), Al Mitchell (vocational agriculture teacher Indian River County), Charles Sembler & Rep. Charles Sembler Jr. (Sembler's Fish Inc.) and other commercial shell fishermen. At these meetings the needs and goals of the Sebastian River Mariculture Project (SRMP) were discussed including the following: Submerged lands lease acquisition, equipment and supply needs, project methods, scheduling of monitoring, record keeping, monitoring guidelines, security for materials in the field, division of project responsibilities training needs and liability. 2 A small 4-H clam growout demonstration project involving fifteen middle and high school students from Indian River county has been started during January 1994 with the cooperation of Frank Lawlor of Florida Sea Grant, and Sembler Fish Inc. The use of a boat, seed clams and a small portion of lease has been donated by Sembler Fish Inc. This limited scale 4-H program will be used to pilot the Sebastian River Mariculture Project (SRMP). The first steps toward acquisition of submerged lands lease have already been taken in the hope that lease agreement will be secured before the start of the 1994-95 school year. The site will be surveyed with GPS. Seventh and eighth vocational agriculture students at Sebastian River Middle School will begin construction of soft -tray culture bags and nets in August of 1994. Seed clams (6mm) will be locally purchased and students will then seed their soft -trays and nets and will place them on the lease with the help of teachers and local clam mariculture operators. A second plant of seed clam will be started four months after the first. This process will be repeated by students entering the program in subsequent years. One group of twenty-four sixth grade students will be taken out for a day long field trip each month until the entire sixth grade class has been exposed to the program. Seventh grade agriculture students will be taken to the lease one a month. Eighth grade agriculture students will visit the lease twice a month. A total of at least 48 eighth graders, 96 seventh graders and the entire sixth grade class ( over 200 students ) will be serviced by this program. Among this group will come FFA members who will be involved in this program as an after school project. The lease site will be monitored weekly by the agriculture students (approximately 24 students) with their vocational agriculture and science/ecology teachers. General routine maintenance will include flipping the bags over and scrubbing them, along with rearranging them evenly in the bag and scrubbing the nets over the bottom planted clams. Ecological monitoring ( to include coliform counts, water tempgrature, pH dissolved oxygen, bottom sampling and seagrass studies) will also be done on every visit to the site. The two instructors will be Coast Guard and first aid trained and will handle the boats used to transport students to the lease. One of the two instructors will be designated the project safety officer and will provide water safety instruction for all students enrolled. All cooperators doing routine monitoring and cleaning of the bags will be 3 trained in proper methods used to monitor micro organisms, water quality, clam growth, clam mortality, ecological monitoring etc. Studies will be initiated to determine the effect of hard clam mariculture on seagrass populations and crab populations. One meter transacts will be monitored within and around the lease area before the clam bags are placed in the water and twice monthly thereafter. Throughout the clam growout period, field tours will be conducted for the local press, area educators, commercial fishermen, students, area leaders and civic groups. These tours will provide a wide spectrum of the community a chance to see first-hand this method of intensive shellfish farming. Florida Sea Grant will produce a video record of this project and will aid in distribution of information to the news media and aquaculture industry. The first clams planted in August -September of 1994 will be ready for harvest in the spring of 1996. The Sebastian River Mariculture Project will be self supporting or nearly so during it's third year. The harvest of clams will be conducted by eighth grade students who started clams in the seventh grade. Final statistics including growth rate, mortality, environmental monitoring, and profitability will be presented in a final meeting of all cooperators involved. This program will become self-supporting during the 1996-97 school year through the sale of clams. EVALUATION 1. Interdisciplinary curriculum will be in place for the Sebastian River Mariculture Project by the start of the 94-95 school year. 2.Student project record books will be graded a minimum of twice each nine week grading period. 3.Cooperation between the Sebastian River Mariculture Project, Florida Sea Grant and local producers will be maintained through regular advisory committee meetings to be held at quarterly or more often if needed. 4 4.Records of all press releases and public education will be kept by the Advisory Committee reporter who will also be responsible for contacting local news agencies. 5.A professional video, of this program, at least ten minutes long will be completed by Florida Sea Grant before the end of the 94-95 school year. 6.The project budget records will indicate that the program is self supporting by the 95-96 school year. 5 SEBASTIAN RIVER MARICULTURE PROJECT PROJECTED BUDGET FOR 94-95 & 95-96 SCHOOL YEARS 94-95 95-96 23.8 ft.
