related ocean, coastal, and Great Lakes ecosystems. B-WET currently 
funds projects in seven regions (California, Chesapeake Bay, Great 
Lakes, Gulf of Mexico, Hawaii, New England, and the Pacific Northwest). 
B-WET has created an across-region, internal evaluation system to 
provide ongoing feedback on program implementation and outcomes to

evaluation system is sustained by B-WET staff with occasional 
assistance from an outside contractor.
    B-WET awardees and the awardees' professional development teacher-
participants are asked to voluntarily complete online survey forms to 
provide evaluation data. One individual from each awardee organization 
is asked to complete a form once per year of the award, and the teacher 
participants are asked to complete one form at the end of their 
professional development program and another form at the end of the 
following school year.
    Affected Public: State, local and tribal governments; not-for-
profit institutions, business or other for-profit organizations,
