SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

HIHWNMS Advisory Council was

established in March 1996 (the current

Council has served since July 1998) to

assure continued public participation in

the management of the Sanctuary. Since

its establishment, the Council has

played a vital role in the decisions

affecting the Sanctuary surrounding the

main Hawaiian Islands.

The Council’s twenty-three voting

members represent a variety of local

user groups, as well as the general

public, plus ten local, state and federal

governmental jurisdictions.

The Council is supported by three

working groups: The Research

Subcommittee chaired by the Research

Representative, the Education

Subcommittee chaired by the Education

Representative, and the Conservation

Subcommittee chaired by the

Conservation Representative, each

respectively dealing with matters

concerning research, education and

resource protection.

The Council represents the

coordination link between the

Sanctuary and the state and federal

management agencies, user groups,

researchers, educators, policy makers,

and other various groups that help to

focus efforts and attention on the

humpback whale and its habitat around

the main Hawaiian Islands.

The Council functions in an advisory

capacity to the Sanctuary Manager and

is instrumental in helping to develop

policies and program goals, and to

identify education, outreach, research,

long-term monitoring, resource

protection and revenue enhancement

priorities. The Council works in concert

with the Sanctuary Manager by keeping

him or her informed about issues of

concern throughout the Sanctuary,

offering recommendations on specific

issues, and aiding the Manager in

achieving the goals of the Sanctuary

program within the context of Hawaii’s

marine programs and policies.
