Bay watch.
Massachusetts Bay—After Boston Harbor was declared one of America’s dirtiest waterways in the 1980s, Massachusetts extended an outfall pipe to carry sewage farther offshore. To monitor the waste’s effect on the bay, the environmental management firm Battelle leased WHOI’s coastal research vessel Tioga to measure water quality and chemical contaminants. Battelle officials said the year-old, 65-foot vessel is comfortable for work in high seas, and they will likely use Tioga again.
