COP  

Definition

  • COP provides scientific information to assist decision makers in meeting the challenges of managing our Nation's coastal resources. COP targets critical issues which exist in the Nation's estuaries, coastal waters, and Great Lakes. COP translates its findings into accessible information and the transfer of technology to coastal managers, planners, lawmakers, and the public. Its aim is to create near-term and continuous improvements in environmental decisions affecting the coastal ocean and its resources. The Coastal Ocean Program provides a focal point through which the agency, together with other organizations with responsibilities for the coastal environment and its resources, can make significant strides toward finding the solutions that will protect coastal resources and ensure their availability and well-being for future generations.
