National Oceanic-Atmospheric

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Office for Coastal Management in Honolulu, HI, implements four major programs to support coastal and Great Lakes communities, focusing on ecosystem health and resilience. These programs include the National Coastal Zone Management Program, National Estuarine Research Reserve System, Coral Reef Conservation Program, and Digital Coast, all aimed at advancing coastal resource management priorities and fostering community resilience.

Through initiatives such as the National Coastal Resilience Fund, the office provides grants to protect habitats and reduce flooding risks while also creating opportunities for the next generation of coastal leaders through fellowship programs. Their commitment to addressing pressing ocean and coastal management needs is reflected in various community projects and impactful statistics that highlight the significance of coastal populations and environmental challenges.
