SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ONMS serves as the trustee for a network of 
underwater parks encompassing more than 620,000 square miles of marine 
and Great Lakes waters from Washington State to the Florida Keys, and 
from Lake Huron to American Samoa. The network includes a system of 15 
national marine sanctuaries and Papah[amacr]naumoku[amacr]kea and Rose 
Atoll marine national monuments. National marine sanctuaries protect 
our Nation's most vital coastal and marine natural and cultural 
resources, and through active research, management, and public 
engagement, sustain healthy environments that are the foundation for 
thriving communities and stable economies.
    One of the many ways ONMS ensures public participation in the 
designation and management of national marine sanctuaries is through 
the formation of advisory councils. The Sanctuary System Business 
Advisory Council has been formed to provide advice and recommendations 
to the Director regarding the relationship of ONMS with the business 
community. Additional information on the council can be found at 
<a href="https://sanctuaries.noaa.gov/management/bac/">https://sanctuaries.noaa.gov/management/bac/</a> bac/.
    Matters to be discussed: The meeting will include an update from 
the ONMS director, a council officer election, and member updates. For
