FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For further information on a 
particular national marine sanctuary advisory council, please contact 
the individual identified in the Addresses section of this notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ONMS serves as the trustee for a network of 
underwater parks encompassing more than 170,000 square miles of marine 
and Great Lakes waters from Washington state to the Florida Keys, and 
from Lake Huron to American Samoa. The network includes a system of 13 
national marine sanctuaries and Papahanaumokuakea and Rose Atoll marine 
national monuments. National marine sanctuaries protect our nation's 
most vital coastal and marine natural and cultural resources, and 
through active research, management, and public engagement, sustain 
healthy environments that are the foundation for thriving communities 
and stable economies. One of the many ways ONMS ensures public 
participation in the designation and management of national marine 
sanctuaries is through the formation of advisory councils. National 
marine sanctuary advisory councils are community-based advisory groups 
established to provide advice and recommendations to the 
superintendents of the national marine sanctuaries and 
Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument on issues including 
management, science, service, and stewardship; and to serve as liaisons 
between their constituents in the community and the sanctuary. 
Additional information on ONMS and its advisory councils can be found 
at http://sanctuaries.noaa.gov. Materials related to the purpose, 
policies, and operational requirements for advisory councils can be 
found in the charter for a particular advisory council (http://
