Cooperative Agreement
Overview
Grant Description
Pacific Coastal Research & Planning will remove abandoned and derelict vessels in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands and large marine debris in the Freely Associated State of Palau. The project will seek to build and establish marine debris removal partnerships in the territories and Freely Associated States.
Abandoned and derelict vessels (ADV) and derelict fishing gear (DFG) pose a threat to local communities through the ongoing release of hazardous and destructive materials into the local environment, and the potential contamination and entanglement of critical food resources that the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands and Freely Associated States communities rely on.
In addition, ADVs and DFG present in these areas are an eyesore and detract from the vibrant ecosystems that tourists expect when they visit these islands, which represents the primary economy in all of these Pacific Island jurisdictions.
Removing ADVs and DFG will provide additional support to.
