NOAA’s Science Advisory Board is seeking members to join a working group that the Board has established to advise NOAA’s RESTORE Science Program. The request for nominations to the working group has been announced in the Federal Register. The working group will provide independent guidance and review of the NOAA RESTORE Science Program offering advice and recommendations to NOAA on the types of research, monitoring, observations, and technology development the Program should support. The working group will also provide a mechanism for coordination between the multiple organizations conducting RESTORE-related science within the Gulf of Mexico. Members appointed to the working group will serve three-year terms.
Nominations must be received by October 9, 2013, and should be submitted electronically to noaa.rspawg.nominees@noaa.gov. The Terms of Reference for the working group are available on the NOAA Science Advisory Board website.
