National Sea Grant Appendix B Sea Grants are not usually made directly to industry, but a participating industry may be compensated with Federal Sea Grant funds by a University Sea Grantee for goods or services provided as an integral part of a cooperative arrangement. The term "Sea Grant" was chosen to emphasize the parallel between the present needs of the Nation in the marine environment and the need for development of the land at the time of the Morrill Act of 1862, which established the Land Grant Program. Like Land Grant before it, Sea Grant provides the means through which scholars and institutions of higher education can apply their knowledge and talents to the practical needs of the Nation and the world. www-csgc.ucsd.edu /PROPOSAL/AppxBNSGC.html

@ Texas Sea Grant - About Us Sea Grant must also continually assess the marine problem-oriented research needs that can best be addressed by academic scientists, develop research-demonstration projects to show stakeholders how to put the results of research into practice and be a leader in technology transfer. Sea Grant will play a major role in educating all our citizens and visitors about our coastal environment and how actions that are taken far inland can have profound impacts on the coast. While Texas Sea Grant does not address all of the strategic goals in any of the other plans, our goals are either explicitly included in one or more of those plans or are in close juxtaposition with one or more goals in those documents. texas-sea-grant.tamu.edu /about/strategic.php

About Us In 1968, Congress established Sea Grant as an institutional program at the University of Hawai‘i (UH) and in October 1972, the University was designated one of the first five Sea Grant Colleges. The National Sea Grant College Program was founded by the US Congress in the 1960s to encourage the understanding, development, sustainable use, and conservation of marine resources through university-based research, technology, education, and community outreach. Today, the UH Sea Grant College Program is part of a nationwide network of 32 institutional programs of the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). www.soest.hawaii.edu /SEAGRANT/aboutus/aboutus.php

Fishlines Newsletter, Feb. 1997 Witnesses will be Ronald Dearborn on behalf of the Sea Grant Association, Ron Baird on behalf of NOAA, John Toll on behalf of the National Sea Grant Review Panel, and Leonard Pietrafesa on behalf of the Board on Oceans and Atmosphere of NASULGC (National Association of State Universities and Land Grant Colleges).

Sea Grant Week is a biennial gathering for Sea Grant directors and other staff and affiliates. www.uaf.edu /seagrant/Fishlines/Feb97.html

Oregon Sea Grant - Accessibility Sea Grant Extension's role will be to identify users of this new technology, to let potential users know what can be available to them, and to determine whether the technology can be modified to meet additional needs identified by users. Sea Grant programs are using these funds within their states to support CCDP coordinators and develop and implement projects in outreach, education, and research. Sea Grant has provided excellent research and outreach services to the United States since it was established by the National Sea Grant and Program Act of 1966. seagrant.oregonstate.edu /asgepl/q03002.html

@ Texas Sea Grant - PAT Sea Grant administration was involved at every step in the process and the remaining personnel were encouraged to read and comment on the draft proposal once the blue ribbon panel had approved it. Sea Grant's activities also affect people in the Panhandle or the Midwest or any area far from a coastline just as their activities affect coastal regions — another indication that the environment is an integrated system. Sea Grant is currently working with city governments along the coast to put up signs with rip current information and encourage adoption of a flag system to warn of rip currents. texas-sea-grant.tamu.edu /pubs/PAT.php

National Aquaculture Extension Conference Summary: The Sea Grant Model for Marine Research and Extension Thirty one years later, there are 29 Sea Grant Colleges and Institutions in the coastal and Great Lakes states with almost as many arrangements or models for administration and organizational structure to meet Sea Grant goals. Sea Grant outreach reflects these trends in terms of shifting effort over the years from commercial fisheries to a more diversified portfolio of activities and investments. The commonalities are the grafting of new program and service priorities in a way that accesses university resources across all state universities and colleges and serves the public and private constituencies. www.mdsg.umd.edu /extensionconf/AQ19.html

Nat' Academies Press, A Review of the NOAA National Sea Grant College Program (1994) Sea Grant was originally placed in the National Science Foundation, which set up a National Sea Grant Office (NSGO) in 1967 and awarded its first grants in 1968. Sea Grant has been virtually the only source of funding in the United States for activities in marine policy, and has been a major contributor for the fields of marine aquaculture, coastal and estuarine research, marine fisheries management, seafood safety, marine biotechnology, marine engineering, and marine technology development. Sea Grant was created by the National Sea Grant College Program Act of 1966 as a marine analog to the Land-Grant College System. www.nap.edu /books/NX005518/html/7.html

Chairman Ehlers Statement While Sea Grant has had measurable successes over the years, people have expressed concerns about how much (or little) support it has received from Congress, its peer-review process, and how funding is distributed across the country. Sea Grant colleges were to serve as the marine counterparts to land grant colleges. Sea Grant has a distinguished history of providing small grants to university researchers so they can investigate and answer important questions about our oceans, coasts, fisheries, and Great Lakes. www.house.gov /science/hearings/ets02/feb28/ehlers.htm

AQUACULTURE IN THE NATIONAL SEA GRANT PROGRAM As a result, much of the early work under Sea Grant support has been devoted to the establishment of trained, experienced groups who are equipped and capable of conducting the type of research necessary to solve the many and varied problems encountered by anyone in aquaculture as a business venture. The Sea Grant Program, originally a part of the National Science Foundation, is now in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce. Major emphasis was to be placed on the conduct of these programs through the establishment and operation of Sea Grant Colleges, the ocean equivalent of our Land Grant Colleges which were instrumental in making the United States one of the greatest agricultural nations of the world. www.lib.noaa.gov /japan/aquaculture/report1/wildman.html
