                                  and...


The Long Island Sound Study (LISS), part of EPA’s National Estuary Program, is asking residents of Long Island Sound to join in a nationwide “Toast the Coast” on Sept. 28 in celebration of the 25th annual National Estuaries Day.


“A
toast, even with just a glass of tap water, is a simple way for people
all around the country to show their appreciation and support for our
coastal waters,” said Mark Tedesco, director of the EPA Long Island
Sound Office, which manages the Long Island Sound Study program.  “For
us, it signifies our appreciation of Long Island Sound, a body of water
surrounded and enjoyed by millions of people that also supports an
incredible array of fish, shellfish, seabirds, and other wildlife.


Those who cannot attend are invited to share pictures of their own toasts honoring the Sound, and its clean rivers and harbors on LISS’s Facebook page.
They will be joined by thousands of individuals and organizations
around the country celebrating with toasts and other National Estuaries
Day events.
