Research Areas in Virginia Sea Grant Core Program In keeping with its mission, Sea Grant continually re-evaluates its research priorities to respond to changing circumstances in marine and coastal ecosystems and management systems. As part of its core program, Virginia Sea Grant currently funds marine science research in these six key areas: Developing sustainable aquaculture Revitalizing Virginia's commercial fisheries Enhancing seafood safety and quality Enhancing marine resource economics and business ... Coastal ecosystem health Developing Sustainable Aquaculture In response to a decline in wild fisheries due to overfishing and habitat loss and destruction, aquaculture is playing an increasingly important role in diversifying the use and development of marine resources in Virginia. While aquaculture has enormous potential in Virginia, it also holds challenges. These include establishing policies for resolving user conflicts regarding space and resources; new technologies to mitigate adverse environmental impacts; appropriate biological and engineering technologies to enable positive economic development for aquaculture operations; and dependable and predictable domestic and export markets for marine aquaculture products. Virginia Sea Grant currently has two main priorities in marine and estuarine aquaculture: developing and refining aquaculture systems and selecting priority species. We emphasize inter-institutional, regional and nationally oriented research on priority species such as hard clam, blue mussel, American oyster, striped bass, salmon and marine shrimp. Our focus areas include production system design and operation, nutrition, genetics, reproduction, diseases, and pathobiology.

Marine Advisory Services at Virginia Sea Grant Sustainably managing Virginia's coastal and offshore marine resources is increasingly challenging in the face of rising demands from a variety of users. Unique in its approach, the Sea Grant Marine Advisory Program responds by providing to industry science-based information and assistance in the wise use of marine resources. Advisory personnel bridge the gap between the scientific community and marine resource users, alerting researchers to information needs, and transferring research results back to user groups. Marine Advisory Specialists work in the following areas, often with researchers from the Commonwealth, the Mid-Atlantic region, and across the nation. Revitalizing Commercial Fisheries Virginia Sea Grant responds to the needs of recreational and commercial fisheries by providing information to fishermen and to resource managers. providing safety training and information for recreational boaters and commercial fishermen.

NOAA ASSISTANT ADMINISTRATOR FOR OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC RESEARCH TELLS OF SUCCESSES OF SEA GRANT PROGRAM BEFORE HOUSE RESOURCES SUBCOMMITTEE HEARING Dr. David Evans, NOAA Assistant Administrator for Oceanic and Atmospheric Research, testified on November 8 before the House Resources Fisheries Conservation, Wildlife and Oceans Subcommittee, on the reauthorization of the National Sea Grant College Program. In regard to the two bills under reviewed by the Subcommittee, Dr. Evans said: The Administration has not yet undertaken a formal review of either HR 1071 or the draft reauthorization bill. We do, however, look forward to working with Congress on a reauthorization of the Sea Grant program that is consistent with the Administration's budgetary and policy goals. The Administration is interested in seeking reforms that will further promote merit-based competition and improve the effectiveness of the program. HR 1071, introduced by Del. Eni F. H. Faleomavaega (D-AS) and Rep. Neil Abercrombie (D-HI), would increase the authorization levels for the Sea Grant program to $100 million annually starting in Fiscal Year 2002. The draft bill, in contrast, would increase authorization levels for Sea Grant to $110 million in Fiscal Year 2004 and make other organizational changes. The current Sea Grant Program Act (P.L. 105-160), which expires in Fiscal Year 2003, authorizes $67.8 million for Sea Grant in Fiscal Year 2002 and $68.8 million in Fiscal Year 2003. The Administration has requested $62.4 million for Sea Grant in Fiscal Year 2002, an increase over the Fiscal Year 2001 appropriation for this program.

January 1995 Volume 3, Number 3 List of Contents: Socioeconomic Research Supports Fisheries Management Find out more about Sea Grant Socioeconomic Research Supports Fisheries Management The Sea Grant network sponsored a National Issues ForumCan America Save its Fisheries?recently at the National Press Club in Washington, DC. Speakers from industry, government, and the scientific community discussed the problems facing U.S. fisheries and possible solutions to those problems. Although no single change in the management of the nation's fisheries will solve all their ills, controlling access is one mechanism that is receiving serious consideration. For example, Individual Transferable Quotas (ITQs), are beginning to be used as a method of allocating a share of the allowable harvest to individuals. In turn, these shares can be transferred or traded. The primary feature of ITQs is the assignment of exclusive property rights for the harvest of a common-property resource. While ITQs are not viewed as a total panacea (they are complex to implement, for example), they will help provide a rational approach to managing fisheries through economic incentives that lead to resource conservation. Sea Grant programs nationwide have conducted long-term, socioeconomic research on fisheries management, including consideration of market-like mechanisms for allocating access to fish stocks. California Sea Grant conducted some of the earliest work studying how the implementation of ITQs in other countries could serve as a model for the U.S. Sea Grant researchers in Delaware and New Jersey played a key role in designing an ITQ system for the Atlantic surf clam and ocean quahog fishery, the first application of ITQs in the U.S. Since the ITQ management system was implemented in 1991, these fisheries have stabilized. Delaware Sea Grant is now continuing research to understand how existing firms adapted and how income was redistributed.

The program provides financial assistance (grants or cooperative agreements) for research and development projects to benefit the U.S. fishing industry. Projects that primarily involve business start-up or infrastructure development are not eligible for funding under the S-K Program.

Sea Grant International Programs Background Sea Grant is a proven, effective paradigm for the engagement of universities and government agencies acting in partnership in promoting research, education and technology transfer related to marine issues. The Sea Grant paradigm is inherently flexible culturally and administratively, thus there is substantial potential for developing cooperative programs with international partners. An international association of national Sea Grant programs, voluntarily joined, could bring impressive benefits to the overall strengthening of marine research and resource management capabilities world-wide. An international Sea Grant could provide a platform that promotes international research, educational activities and technology transfer related to coastal issues, encourages information exchange, and fosters international collaboration in activities that improve understanding of the marine and coastal environment. Currently, programs based on the Sea Grant concept are in various stages of development in Latin America and Asia. The NOAA Research International Activities Office is working with government, university, and private partners in these regions to provide technical expertise, coordinating capacity, and program development functions
