NOAA's Emergency Response Program NOAA's cross-cutting program to build and sustain the agency's ability to respond effectively to emergencies.
|
Assessing Risk to Ecological Resources Assessing hazardous waste sites that threaten NOAA's trust resources.
|
Marine Debris Marine debris is any man-made object discarded, disposed of, or abandoned that enters the coastal or marine environment. It may enter directly from a ship, or indirectly when washed out to sea via rivers, streams and storm drains.
Marine debris threatens oceans and coasts; marine mammals, fish, and seabirds; human health and safety; and navigation.

Watershed Database & Mapping Projects NOAA's Assessment and Restoration Division has developed numerous Watershed Database and Mapping Projects. Because each project is unique, with its own characteristics, their components vary. But each builds upon a standard database structure and a data delivery application (Query Manager). Most include GIS data as well.
|
Abandoned Vessels Identifying and removing vessels abandoned in sensitive coastal environments.
|
Natural Resource Damage Assessment Through the NRDA process, DARRP and co-trustees conduct studies to identify the extent of resource injuries, the best methods for restoring those resources, and the type and amount of restoration required.
