Oceans Act 2000
The law establishes a Commission which, in consultation with the states, a scientific advisory panel, and the public, develops recommendations for a National Oceans Policy (due June 2003). The President has 120 days to provide Congress with proposals to implement or respond to recommendations.
The Commission is to give equal consideration to environmental, technical feasibility, economic, and scientific factors. In addition, the recommendations may not be specific to the lands or waters within a single state.
7
Purpose
To establish a Commission to make recommendations for a coordinated and comprehensive national ocean policy that will promote:
• Protection of live and property
• Stewardship of ocean and coastal resources
• Enhancement of maritime commerce
• Expansion of human knowledge of the marine environment
• Investment in technologies to promote energy and food security
• Close cooperation among government agencies
• U.S. leadership in ocean and coastal activities
8
Oceans Act 2000 - Scope
The Commission’s report is required to include a review of the following:
• Existing and planned facilities (people, vessels, computers, satellites)
• Existing and planned federal activities
• Cumulative effect of federal laws
• Supply and demand for ocean and coastal resources
• Relationships between federal, state, and local governments, and the private sector
• Opportunities for the investment in new products and technologies
• State and federal integration efforts
• Modification to federal laws and/or the structure of federal agencies
• The effectiveness of existing federal interagency policy coordination
9
Ocean Commissions Challenges and Opportunities
• Rationalize organization of Federal ocean and coastal activities
• Integrate laws and policies
• Ensure greater involvement of Federal, State, Regional, and Local stakeholders
• Build the required knowledge base of ocean environment to support decision-makers
• Increase use of science and technology to meet aforementioned challenges
• Implement rational and coherent investment policies and plans

www.NOPP.org
Ocean.US (www.ocean.us.net) was created by NOPP in late 2000 and empowered to develop a tactical plan for implementation of a national ocean observing system by 2010 and to submit this plan to Congress by April 2002. Ocean.US will convene a workshop in March 2002 to define the conventions of the national ocean observing system and will submit this plan to Congress in April 2002.
How will NOPP contribute to an Integrated Ocean and Coastal Observing System?
