Biographical Sketch

James J. Barry III

Mr. Barry's career began in 1965 with Palm Beach County's Health Department inspecting restaurants and swimming pools. After the creation of a biology laboratory, job responsibilities changed to protecting and managing the County's wetland and marine resources.

During the late 1960s and early 1970s, Mr. Barry worked with the USEP A and conducted a variety of studies in Lake Worth Lagoon and around wastewater outfalls.

In 1972 with the passage ofNEPA, wetlands protection was initiated and regulatory permits were required to dredge and fill. Mr. Barry issued the first of these wetland permits.

By the late 1970s, Mr. Barry had become the local authority for environmental protection, fisheries management and water quality issues.

In 1981, Mr. Barry spearheaded the passage of the very first mangrove protection ordinance which was the first in Florida.

During the 1980s, Mr. Barry met with John D. MacArthur several times and was instrumental in convincing Mr. MacArthur of the need to preserve the tract of land that was later to become known as MacArthur Beach State Park.

Mr. Barry became a Director in Environmental Resources Management Department during 1987 and managed all environmental restoration activities within the Department until his 2006 retirement.

Mr. Barry was an outspoken advocate for the Juno Beach Fishing Pier which was constructed during the late 1990s.

Among the significant restoration projects accomplished during his tenure with ERM are: Munyon Island Restoration (45 acres), Peanut Island Restoration (79 acres) and Snook Islands Restoratio~ (80 acres). Significant artificial reef projects during Mr. Barry's watch included the placement of the Rolls Royce reef, scuttling

I l

I

of several ships including the ship Princess Anne and four ships at Governor's

Riverwalk Reef and deployment of Cross Current Reef.

Mr. Barry was the driving force behind the County's continued ownership of the

land and subsequent development of the Light Harbor Marina site which currently

provides parking and boat ramp facilities for the public.

Mr. Barry has been a public servant in the Palm Beach County arena for more than

41 years and has been, and remains, among the most influential environmental

spokespersons for the County. This is especially true as it relates to marine and

estuarine management and protection, wetlands restoration and protection and water quality improvement.

Mr. Barry was an original member of the Artificial Reef Committee in 1985 and

provided staff support until his retirement in 2006. He now serves on the Committee and remains a very active member.

Mr. Barry's hobbies include: knife making; fishing; hunting; treasure hunting and drawing.

TOM TWYFORD BIOGRAPHICAL INFO:

Born: August 11, 1960 Elmendorf Air Force Base, Anchorage, Alaska

Hometown: Worthington, Ohio

Education: BS degree from Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia majoring in Parks & Conservation. Also was a member of men's swimming team all four years of eligibility.

Age: 52

Residence: 921 Laurel Road, North Palm Beach, FL 33408

Family: Widowed (wi~e Sue passed in 2003). _ 'f~ ~~1te;11 Wl fE ~ Tommy (21) and Eddie (20) D If;~~ LI W ls n

MAR 2 9 2013 LJ NARRATIVE BIO: ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT

For well over two decades Tom Twyford has been one of Palm Beach County's leading ambassadors of sport fishing. In his capacity as the Executive Director, and now President, of the venerable West Palm Beach Fishing Club, and as a South Florida outdoor writer and television broadcaster, he has educated, informed and inspired countless angling enthusiasts. He has been a 'coach' of sorts to literally thousands of young anglers. Angling and educational programs under his leadership like the annual Kid's Fishing Day have helped introduce well over 11,000 children from throughout Palm Beach County to the joys of the sport, many who otherwise would not have the opportunity to experience what its like to go fishing offshore. The three-day program, which is free of charge to the kids who participate, is far more than just a fishing trip. The program is very educationally oriented. The kids learn about fish biology, the importance of marine habitat, how to properly cast a fishing rod, how to be safe while out on the water and many other angling oriented lessons.

Tom is responsible for coordinating two of the area's largest and most popular sport fishing events: The Palm Beach County KDW Classic is among Florida's largest one-day fishing tournaments routinely drawing hundreds of boats and nearly 1,000 anglers who are searching for prize winning kingfish, dolphin and wahoo from local waters. The Silver Sailfish Derby, is recognized as the oldest competitive billfishing event in the world and one of the angling world's most prestigious. His impact on the Palm Beach County sport fishing scene

extends well beyond youth fishing programs and tournaments.

Long before the current plethora of cable TV outdoor shows and the Internet, Tom was bringing fishing and fishing issues to the mainstream public. For a dozen years, Tom highlighted Sou th Florida's bountiful angling action on prime time newscasts with his popular Tight Lines television segments. Twyford wrote, produced and shot underwater video, which not only featured angling action and 'how to' tips, but also conveyed equally important ethics in angling and conservation messages. During its run, Tight Lines aired on virtually all of the major affiliates in the West Palm Beach market. For a short period of time Twyford also produced an educational segment on Saturday mornings called Fish Facts targeted towards kids.

Advocacy has also been a big part of Tom's contribution to the local sport fishing arena. Over the past two decades he has played an important role in efforts to preserve public access to the water and to help create new fishing areas through the construction of artificial reefs and environmental enhancement projects. Tom's accomplishments should not be judged by fishing tournament winnings or angling trophies, but rather by his ability to inspire, influence and educate the public, especially the next generation of anglers. He continues to be a positive force in Palm Beach County's economically important fishing industry through the many educational programs, tournaments and special events he coordinates at the 78-yearold West Palm Beach Fishing Club.
