SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ONMS
serves as the trustee for a network of
underwater parks encompassing more
than 600,000 square miles of marine and
Great Lakes waters from Washington
state to the Florida Keys, and from Lake
Huron to American Samoa. The network
includes a system of 13 national marine
¯
¯
sanctuaries and Papahanaumokuakea
and Rose Atoll marine national
monuments. National marine
sanctuaries protect our nation’s most
vital coastal and marine natural and
cultural resources, and through active
research, management, and public

engagement, sustain 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.
National marine sanctuary advisory
councils are community-based advisory
groups established to provide advice
and recommendations to the
superintendents of national marine
sanctuaries on issues including
management, science, service, and
stewardship; and to serve as liaisons
between their constituents in the
community and the sanctuary.
Additional information on ONMS and
its advisory councils can be found at
https://sanctuaries.noaa.gov. Materials
related to the purpose, policies, and
operational requirements for advisory
councils can be found in the charter for
a particular advisory council (https://
sanctuaries.noaa.gov/management/ac/
council_charters.html) and the National
Marine Sanctuary Advisory Council
Implementation Handbook (https://
