SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: ONMS serves as the trustee for a network of 
underwater parks encompassing more than 620,000 square miles (16,000 
square kilometers) of marine and Great Lakes waters from Washington 
State to the Florida Keys, and from Lake Huron to American Samoa. The 
network includes a system of 15 national marine sanctuaries and 
Papah[amacr]naumoku[amacr]kea and Rose Atoll marine national monuments. 
National marine sanctuaries protect our Nation's most vital coastal and 
marine natural and cultural resources, and through active research, 
management, and public engagement, sustain healthy environments that 
are the foundation for thriving communities and stable economies.
    One of the many ways ONMS ensures public participation in the 
designation and management of national marine sanctuaries is through 
the formation of advisory councils. The Sanctuary System Business 
Advisory Council (council) has been formed to provide advice and 
recommendations to the Director of ONMS regarding the relationship 
between ONMS and the business community. Additional information on the 
council can be found at https://sanctuaries.noaa.gov/management/bac/.
    Agenda topics: The meeting will include a discussion and vote on a 
proposed amendment to the current council charter and member updates.

    Authority: 16 U.S.C. 1431, et seq.

Director, Office of National Marine Sanctuaries, National Ocean 
Service, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
