Good Morning MARMAM list serve Members,
The National Ocean Council announced that the public will have until
July 2nd to comment on the strategic action plan outlines
<http://www.whitehouse.gov/administration/eop/oceans/sap/> for each of
the nine objectives in the National Ocean Policy. Writing teams composed
of representatives from the National Ocean Council agencies developed
these outlines to provide an initial view as to how federal agencies
might address the priority objectives. They are preliminary documents
that serve as an early and valuable point in the plan development
process for focusing public and stakeholder input. We encourage you to
submit comments
