Preparing for the Storm: Acknowledgements Many people contributed to the efforts of the Coastal Hazards Commission (CHC), providing valuable support for the development of the recommendations and this report. The following people provided the CHC with insight on coastal hazards through presentations and field trips: Cheryl Bartlett (Siasconset Beach Preservation Association), Jason Burtner (Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management [CZM]), Margaret Davidson (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Coastal Services Center), Paul Diodati (Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries), Kathryn Glenn (CZM), Rebecca Haney (CZM), Wayne Jaedtke (Barnstable County Department of Dredging), Dave Janik (CZM), Stacey Justus (Cape Cod Commission), Julia Knisel (CZM), Steve McKenna (CZM), Jim O'Connell (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution [WHOI] Sea Grant), Joe Orfant (Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation [DCR]), Christine Player (Vine Associates, Inc.), John Ramsey (Applied Coastal Research and Engineering, Inc.), John Tomasz (Rockport Department of Public Works), David Vallee (National Weather Service), Jeff Williams (United States Geological Survey), and Rich Zingarelli (DCR). Five working groups comprised of academics, consultants, local officials, and state officials identified critical coastal hazards issues and drafted the recommendations. The CHC appreciates the time given by all of the members of the working groups and would especially like to recognize the commitment of the chairs and staff including: Lisa Bowen (Urban Harbors Institute), Mary Griffin (Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection), Truman Henson (CZM), Representative Frank Hynes (Fourth Plymouth District), Vincent Kalishes (Town of Scituate), Mary-Lee King (CZM), Julia Knisel (CZM), David Lutes (Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs), Steve Mague (CZM), Kristin Mallek (Urban Harbors Institute), Jim O'Connell (WHOI Sea Grant), Susan Snow-Cotter (CZM), John Tommaney (Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency), and Rich Zingarelli (DCR). The CHC would like to thank the members of the public who expressed their concerns at the public forums and provided comments on the draft recommendations. The meeting spaces provided by the Dennis Memorial Library, Gloucester House Restaurant, Mariners House, Pilot House, and United States Coast Guard Integrated Support Command were excellent and greatly appreciated. Finally, the CHC would like to recognize and thank CZM for providing organizational, technical, and logistical support to the CHC and its five working groups throughout the entire process.
