Tourism and recreation constitute by far the fastest growing sector of the ocean economy, extending virtually everywhere along the coasts of the continental U.S., southeast Alaska, Hawaii and our island territories and commonwealths.

Every Sea Grant accomplishment is not reported. For example, almost no attempt was made to account for better resource management decisions that flow from having better scientific knowledge. Returns from Sea Grant s investment in human capital development, from graduate education to extension workshops, went largely unmeasured, A value is not assigned to the lives saved as a result of marine safety training programs. Nor was it possible to track systematically or to account for the continuation of Sea Grant impacts reported in (Source: Twine Line, June 1989)

49 NSGO Strategic Plan should clearly reflect the role and importance of tourism in achieving Sea Grant national goals and objectives. The 32 state Sea Grant programs should assess the importance of coastal tourism within their respective states and address these needs, challenges and opportunities in the goals and objectives of their respective state state plans. The NSGO working with the 32 state Sea Grant programs should develop a national multi-media message to coastal communities and the tourism industry regarding the role that Sea Grant is playing (and can play) in regard to coastal tourism Additional recommendations to be discussed in afternoon breakout session
50 Coordinating across government Federal agencies must work together with public and private partners to help create jobs. Prioritize and Coordinate Federal policies & programs; encourage Federal participation in public-private tourism partnerships. DOC will establish a national travel and tourism office to provide leadership/focus within the Federal government. Conducting research and measuring results Public and private parties need up-to-date information to make smart decisions about policies and investments. Federal government will work with the travel and tourism industry and academic researchers to conduct high-quality research on tourism trends to inform public and private decisionmaking. Performance metrics and accountability measures will be used to ensure continual progress on the goals/strategies outlined in this report.
