USCG Sta Chetco River Surf Training 07 FEB 12. Many of the stations listed date from the 1800s, during the existence of the United States Life-Saving Service. Development of stations were started with the 1848 signing of the Newell Act. This act allowed Congress to appropriate $10,000 to established unmanned life-saving stations along the New Jersey coast south of New York Harbor and to provide "surf boats, rockets, carronades and other necessary apparatus for the better preservation of life and property from ship- wrecks...." During that same year, the Massachusetts Humane Society received funds from Congress for life-saving stations on the Massachusetts coastline.
