NOAA Fisheries: Office of Protected Resources

Created as a part of the NOAA Fisheries department, the Office of Protected Resources manages programs and policies that protect the marine life found within the waters surrounding the United States. Of great interest to most visitors will be the sections where they may learn about the endangered species themselves. Here visitors can learn about the various species, and read reports to Congress on the recovery activities that have been taken place under the auspices of the Endangered Species Act of 1973. Besides the numerous general information publications available on the site, there are a number of technical and scholarly reports presented, including environmental assessments on the effects of research on Stellar sea lions and scientific assessments of endangered population levels. The site is rounded out by a section that addresses the importance of coral reef and biodiversity conservation and features materials on the status of coral species and the various diseases which affect these species.
