NOAA Pacific Services CenterProviding integrated, locally relevant services and information to support the well-being of Pacific coastal and ocean communities, economies, and natural resources To better understand and meet the unique and specific needs of the U.S. Pacific Islands, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) created the Pacific Services Center (PSC) to serve the region's coastal managers. Part of the NOAA Coastal Services Center, PSC works in partnership with the coastal and ocean management communities of the Pacific, including Hawai`i, American Samoa, Guam, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and makes NOAA's products and services available to these communities. The NOAA Pacific Services Center's primary goal is to promote resilient and sustainable island communities. This is accomplished through various projects that integrate global, science-based approaches with local knowledge of the resources that is based upon generations of experience. To make this happen, PSC fosters partnerships with organizations in all levels of government and the private sector to share information, conduct trainings, and develop management solutions for the islands. Each effort brings PSC closer to its goal and strengthens the ties between NOAA and the coastal managers of the Pacific.
