SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Secretary of Commerce established MCAM in November 2022, to
advise the Under Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and Atmosphere (Under
Secretary) on science-based approaches to area-based protection,
conservation, restoration, and management in coastal and marine areas,
including the Great Lakes. The scope of MCAM's advice includes, but is
not limited to, efforts consistent with the America the Beautiful
initiative, called for by section 216(a) of Executive Order 14008 on
Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and Abroad, as well as other
relevant issues that may be requested by the Under Secretary. The
MCAM's charter must be renewed every two years from the date of the
last renewal.
II. Charter Renewal
In accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act, as amended
(FACA; 5 U.S.C. 1001 et seq.), the Secretary of Commerce has determined
that the renewal of the charter for MCAM is in the public interest. The
MCAM will function solely as an advisory body and in compliance with
provisions of FACA. Copies of the MCAM's revised charter have been
filed with the appropriate committees of the Congress and with the
Library of Congress. The charter can be accessed online at <a href="https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/ocean/marine-coastal-fac./">https://oceanservice.noaa.gov/ocean/marine-coastal-fac./</a>

Designated Federal Official, Marine and Coastal Area-based Management
Advisory Committee; Director, Office of National Marine Sanctuaries,

Administration.
