Commerce and the Interior on
implementation of Section 4 of
Executive Order 13158, which calls for
the development of a National System of
MPAs. The National System aims to
strengthen existing MPAs and MPA
programs through national and regional
coordination, capacity building, science
and analysis. The meeting will be open
to public participation from 4:30 p.m. to
5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, November 2,

the Committee’s meeting will be the
development of draft recommendations
by the Subcommittees (Coastal and
Marine Spatial Planning and
Communities and Land/Sea
Interactions) and the Cultural Heritage
Workgroup for deliberation and action
by the full MPA FAC. The Committee
will hear from an expert speaker on the
Integrated Ocean Observing System
(IOOS), and how MPAs could be used
as platforms for ocean monitoring. The
Committee will hear from two panels of
MPA experts: One on how MPAs can
help support healthy and resilient
coastal communities coastal
communities, and one on how MPAs
and the national system of MPAs relate
to the National Ocean Policy and
