	JOHN A Volpe, former hod carrier and governor (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		John Anthony Volpe, who died Friday at age 85, may be a distant memory to many Massachusetts citizens, but he was an architect of the state's modern political system and of policy directions still followed here and in Washington.
		Volpe was also the first governor to win a four-year term, in 1966, although he didn't serve it out, joining the Nixon administration as secretary of transportation and then as ambassador to Italy.
		Volpe advanced the interstate highway system as federal highway administrator in the 1950s, but under Nixon he not only pushed seat belts and airbags but also backed interstate rail and the use of highway funds for mass transit.

	U of A scientist finds Atlantic salmon escapes higher than government reports
		John Volpe, a U of A fisheries ecologist in the Faculty of Science, has just published a paper in the journal The Alaska Fishery Research Bulletin that outlines how he measured escaped farmed Atlantic salmon in a region of intense salmon farm activity.
		Volpe and his research team recorded the number of Atlantic salmon caught by commercial salmon fishers for the entire 2000 commercial salmon fishing area in a region off northeastern Vancouver island.
		Volpe is now launching a new initiative that calls for full reporting of captured Atlantics and that will allow his research team to access biological samples of these fish (www.escapedatlantics.com).

	Tidepool \| Features \| Salmon Farm Impacts
		Volpe made his surprising discovery when he was looking for research into the impact of farming Atlantic salmon on B.C.'s coastal ecosystems and the potential impact of escaped Atlantic salmon -- there had been hundreds of thousands of escapes -- on the abundance of wild Pacific salmon.
		Volpe also proved that despite their genetic disadvantages -- a complete absence of behaviours adapted to the conditions of west coast rivers, for instance -- salmon-farm escapees were threatening to outcompete steelhead over the long term.
		John Volpe, meanwhile, is leaving B.C. He has decided to accept a position at the University of Alberta, where he expects to continue his research into the impacts of salmon farms on the B.C. coast.

	ScienCentral Video News: Salmon Sickness
		Marine Ecologist John Volpe of the University of Victoria in British Columbia, Canada says part of the problem is that the farms are often near the routes of juvenile salmon as they migrate out into the open ocean from the rivers where they hatched.
		Volpe says researchers became concerned the farms might be having an impact on the numbers of wild salmon after people reported a major drop in the number of salmon returning to some rivers located near the pens in order to spawn.
		Volpe says the logical solution to the problem would be to remove the pens from the ocean and instead raise salmon in large tanks on land.

		Marine ecologist Dr. John Volpe of the University of Victoria told the legislature's sustainable aquaculture committee on Thursday that the science is clear, the results have been vetted and the conclusions are not in doubt.
		Volpe and a team of other researchers published a paper a couple of weeks ago that says sea lice from fish farms kill up to 95 per cent of juvenile salmon that pass by.
		Volpe suggests that all the raw data on fish farming be placed before a blue ribbon panel of international experts, so they can draw conclusions about its validity.

		Yesterday Volpe submitted a 17-page "study" to Richard Nixon which supposedly would reveal the type of man that the Republicans should nominate for vice-president.
		Volpe's earlier attempts to convince Nixon of his own vote-getting value have been futile and it expected that the Collins study, despite its scientific appearance and statistical documentations, will fail also to impress Nixon and his king-makers.
