Scoping Process

At the onset of Joint Management Plan Review, the National Marine Sanctuary Program (NMSP) held public meetings to "scope out" or get input from resource users, interest groups, government agencies, and other members of the public on resource management issues. This input helped define the range of issues that the program needs to address during the management plan review.

From November 28, 2001, to January 17, 2002, scoping meetings were held in 20 locations throughout the three-sanctuary region, from Gualala in Sonoma County to Cambria in San Luis Obispo County, and one each in Sacramento and Washington, D.C.

Please click on the list to view a summary of the issues rasied during the following scoping meetings.
