SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 315(f) of the Coastal Zone

federally approved national estuarine research reserves. The evaluation
process includes holding one or more public meetings, considering
public comments, and consulting with interested Federal, State, and
local agencies and members of the public. During the evaluation, NOAA
will consider whether the management and operation of the reserve is
deficient and whether the research at the reserve is consistent with
the research guidelines developed under section 315(c) of the CZMA.
When the evaluation is complete, NOAA's Office for Coastal Management
will place a notice in the Federal Register announcing the availability
of the final evaluation findings.
