SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The IRA is a historic, Federal Government-
wide investment that furthers efforts to build a Climate-Ready Nation.
NMFS will receive an unprecedented investment to strengthen the
agency's core mission to provide science-based management and
conservation of the Nation's marine resources as we confront climate
change.
During this interim CCC session, NMFS will outline the process for
providing IRA funding to the Councils to advance climate-ready
fisheries management. Actions funded under IRA for the Councils sub-
component will contribute to the following goals: implementation of
fishery management measures necessary to improve climate resiliency and
responsiveness to climate impacts, and development and advancement of
climate-related fisheries management planning and implementation
efforts in support of underserved communities.
In addition, NMFS will provide an overview of how IRA funding will
be used in the Data Acquisition and Management sub-component. Actions
funded under this sub-component will use advanced technologies,
including data management, to improve and expand observation and
sampling capabilities of critical fish, protected species, ecosystem,
and climate data in order to understand where climate-driven shifts in
distribution of fish and other key living marine resources are
occurring.
The 2007 reauthorization of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery
Conservation and Management Act established the CCC. The CCC consists
of the chairs, vice chairs, and executive directors of each of the
eight Regional Fishery Management Councils.
