Earlier this month, Baykeeper's newest team member, Field Investigator Cole Burchiel (pictured below, left) and Senior Scientist Jon Rosenfield (right), joined a pollution patrol on the Baykeeper boat.
They visited the Levin coal terminal to monitor for any signs of pollution, checked out another potentially polluting shoreline industrial facility, and went to Richardson Bay to examine the liveaboard boats that can cause pollution problems in the Bay.
Cole coordinates Baykeeper's pollution hotline investigations and patrol program, so he'll be spending a lot of time on the Bay!
