On March 16th, 2022, the Lobster Foundation, received a $40,000 grant from the Massachusetts Environmental Trust, www.mass.gov/orgs/massachusetts-environmental-trust Drive for a Better Environment grant program. The project will provide education and outreach to Massachusetts lobstermen on the requirements and proper use of new buoy marking requirements, as well as support the use of weaker red and candy cane rope by teaching rope splicing/insertion skills for use as approved weak contrivances.
The Lobster Foundation strongly encourages supporting the environmental programs funded by the Trust in your community.
There are three environmental plates to choose from; the Right Whale & Roseate Terns, The Leaping Brook Trout, or the Blackstone Valley Mill. Visit your local Registry of Motor Vehicles to order a plate on-line at www.massrmv.com.
