Since its creation in 2008, the National Climate Change and Wildlife Science Center (NCCWSC) has seen new developments and has implemented new policies and programs. To account for these changes, many of the original policy guidelines that guide many processes at the NCCWSC and at the Climate Science Centers are now being updated and revised. Please find below a list of both revised policies and policies that are in the revision process. Please check back for updates to policies and manuals being made during the Fall of 2014.
