The devices are secured 10 to 12 feet off the ocean floor by vertical float lines. Last fall, the researchers gathered catch per unit of effort data for each pier. Once they install the devices, Murray and Linquist hope to be able to tell if the fish populations increase at the pier with the devices and if the devices actually improve fishing at the pier. We'll let you know the results of their study. Kudos to Coast- watch

Two other UNC Sea Grant publications—Sea Grant in North Carolina, 1981-82 and About Hurricanes—earned Awards of Merit at the regional competition sponsored by the Carolina Chapter of the STC. Sea Grant in North Carolina, 1981- 1982 was written by Neil Caudle, Kathy Hart and Nancy Davis. About Hurricanes was a publication produced by UNC Sea Grant, the Office of Coastal Management and Division of Emergency Management. Kathy Hart is Sea Grant's new Director of Communications. Hart, a graduate of the UNC School of Jour- nalism, has been with Sea Grant for five years. As Director of Communica- tions, she will also serve as editor of Coastwatch. Continued on next page.
