Pacific Island Coastal Management Partners

The Pacific Services Center's focal point for bringing NOAA resources to the Pacific islands begins with developing coastal management partnerships throughout the region. Partnerships are established with coastal resource agencies, natural resource agencies, emergency management agencies, universities, nongovernmental organizations, the private sector, and the shipping and maritime community.
