2009 Sea Turtle Nesting Season 
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE City of Sanibel
News Release
Sanibel, Florida - April 21, 2009
New Page 1 Contact: Natural Resources Dept. (239) 472- 3700
2009 Sea Turtle Nesting Season
Sea turtle nesting season has returned to Sanibel's beaches once again. Nesting and hatchling emergence will take place from May 1 through October 31. This natural process has happened on Sanibel Island for centuries and the Sanibel-Captiva Conservation Foundation (SCCF) and the City of Sanibel are committed to protecting these threatened and endangered species.
One of the most remarkable natural phenomena occurring on our Gulf beaches is the nesting ritual of the loggerhead sea turtle. Sanibel's eleven miles of Gulf-front have more nesting activity than any other beach in Lee County. The rare opportunity to witness this ritual on a dark summer night is both an honor and a great responsibility. Sought by predators and susceptible to dehydration, sea turtle hatchlings have only a one in a thousand chance of survival. Human activities can further reduce that chance.
By following the simple guidelines below, you can do your part to ensure the survival of these magnificent creatures:
· Turn off or shield lights near the beaches. Artificial beach lighting can inhibit female sea turtles from nesting and disorient hatchlings. Most beachfront lighting issues can be addressed by turning off all unnecessary lights, repositioning or modifying light fixtures, or closing blinds and drapes.
· Remove furniture and other items from the beach and dune area, when not in use, between the hours of 9:00 P.M. and 7:00 A.M. Items left on the beach including beach furniture, toys and trash may provide barriers to nesting or result in entanglement and predation of hatchlings.
· Level all sandcastles and fill any holes dug during play. These are fine during the day but may pose additional hazards at night. Please leave the beach as you found it, so that sea turtles and hatchlings are not hindered on their way to nest or to the water.
· Pick up all trash. Sea turtles mistakenly eat debris, especially plastic, which results in death.
· Honor the leash law. All dogs on the beach must be on a leash and not allowed to disturb nesting turtles or hatchlings.
Gulf-front property owners should make sure that their properties are in compliance with the City's marine turtle protection ordinances and ensure that artificial lighting from the property is not illuminating the beach (Sanibel Code Section 74-181-74-183, Section 126- 996-126-1002). An easy way to test if your property is in compliance is to stand on the beach on a moonless night and look seaward. If a shadow is cast towards the water, there is a potential to deter female turtles from nesting or disorient hatchlings as they emerge from the nest.
We look forward to another successful sea turtle nesting season and hope to uphold Sanibel's reputation as having one of the darkest and most "turtle friendly" beaches in the state. We ask for your continued compliance with City's marine turtle protection ordinances and remind all residents and visitors that violations of these ordinances may be subject to City, State, and/or Federal fines and penalties. Violations should be reported immediately to the Sanibel Police Department at (239) 472-3111, Sanibel Code Enforcement (239) 472-4136 or Natural Resources at (239) 472-3700.

Ideal Bite: Roots
April 21, 2009 Trouble viewing this email? Read it online...
If 10,000 Biters color their hair with ammonia-free products, we'll keep nearly 8 gallons of ammonia from staining the environment.
Is your black (blonde, gray) history showing? Try eco hair dyes next time you wanna change your dark roots (or any colored 'do, for that matter), so you can look fierce as a Mandinka warrior without the caustic chems in normal dyes.
- It's healthier than watching a 12-hour miniseries in one sitting. Studies link the common hair dye ingredient coal tar to bladder cancer and lymphoma.
- Hair worthy of a 704-page novel. (Well, maybe not 704 pages...) Typical dye ingredients such as ammonia can dry out hair to the extreme. These won't. And because the colors come from minerals and plants, they look far from synthetic.
- Like LeVar Burton's loincloth, it's biodegradable. When ingredients such as ammonia, chlorine bleach, and coal tar wash down the drain, they don't disappear - but with eco-ingredients such as henna and wheat germ that's not such an issue.
One of our writers got her hair "did" using the natural color process at Shades in Beverly Hills, which covered up her gray perfectly. Her son opted for platinum blond using the same process...and then proceeded to shave it off (but she reports it looked great while it lasted).
Don't trust yourself? Just bring a kit to your colorist and have them apply it.
- Advanced Cosmetic Technologies Kit - two-part, plant-based coloring kit for deepening your natural shade ($30/kit).
- Susan Henry Natural Color Process - wheat-germ-based formula (wheat germ's a natural conditioning agent) - bleach and then dye, or apply to your current color to deepen; kit comes with a cap 'n' gloves ($20/kit).
- John Masters Organics Herbal Cider Hair Clarifier & Color Sealer - vinegar and herb mixture keeps color in ($17/8 ounces).
- Morocco Method Henna - if you fancy a reddish tint, try henna ($11/4 ounces).
