Help Us Defray Costs of Publishing The CalCoast™ WAVE
Like many non-government organizations, our revenue has been adversely affected due to the COVID-19 pandemic. One of our largest expenses is publication of The CalCoast™ WAVE ("WAVE"), which reaches more than 3,200 readers around the world. The latest edition of the WAVE may be viewed on our website.
We have recurring monthly expenses for contractors who research and post content, a webmaster, digital subscriptions to major news outlets, Constant Contact, Amazon Web Services, and other solutions running in the background of the WAVE.
To help underwrite the cost of publishing the WAVE, we are seeking advertisers. The rates for an ad in the WAVE have been $100/month and $900/year, but for this fundraiser we have discounted our ad rates by $400 /year and $50/month). To place an ad in the WAVE, please send steveaceti@calcoast.org your logo and your URL.
In lieu of placing an ad in the WAVE, please consider making a donation to CalCoast so we can continue providing our readers with important news and announcements regarding grants, events, and employment/fellowship opportunities.
Thank you for considering this request (checks only, please).
News from Quarterly Meeting of the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) Shoreline Preservation Working Group
SANDAG's Shoreline Preservation Working Group (SPWG) advises SANDAG on issues related to the adopted Shoreline Preservation Strategy and opportunities for beach replenishment. The SPWG evolved out of SANDAG's Beach Erosion Committee which was formed in the mid-1990's. SPWG members include elected officials from the coastal cities and representatives from community groups, property owners, environmental groups, state and federal agencies, and Scripps Institution of Oceanography. The SPWG's membership list is available here. The SPWG generally meets quarterly at 11:30 a.m. on the first Thursday of the month. The SPWG's project manager is Sarah Pierce, Associate Regional Planner. Ms. Pierce's phone number is (619) 699-7312 and her email address is sarah.pierce@sandag.org. Below are bullet points from the SPWG's June meeting.
