protected areas encompassing more than
170,000 square miles of ocean and Great
Lakes waters from the Hawaiian Islands
to the Florida Keys, and from Lake
Huron to American Samoa. National
marine sanctuaries protect our Nation’s
most vital coastal and marine natural
and cultural resources, and through
active research, management, and
public engagement, sustains healthy
environments that are the foundation for
thriving communities and stable
economies. One of the many ways
ONMS ensures public participation in
the designation and management of
national marine sanctuaries is through
the formation of advisory councils. The
Sanctuary System Business Advisory
Council (Council) has been formed to
provide advice and recommendations to
the Director regarding the relationship
of the ONMS with the business
community. Additional information on
the Council can be found at https://
sanctuaries.noaa.gov/management/bac/
welcome.html.
Matters To Be Considered: The fourth
meeting of the Council will provide an
opportunity for council representatives
to hear about ONMS efforts to promote
national marine sanctuaries as sentinel
sites for change detection and building
a better understanding of coastal,
marine, and Great Lakes ecosystems
(i.e., ONMS Sentinel Monitoring
Program). Discussions will focus on
potential expansion of or developing
new collaborations to conduct research
and monitoring, including engaging
citizen scientists from sanctuary
communities. The agenda is subject to
change. The agenda is available at
https://sanctuaries.noaa.gov/
