Focus areas for this region include assisting jurisdictional POCs with their Coral Block Grants, assisting with earmarks, invasive species issues in the Hawaiian Archipelago (of particular concern in Oahu right now), watershed management/land-based sources of pollution reduction in both Hawaii and American Samoa, coral restoration research and implementation in both areas, and supporting USCRTF Watershed Priority Initiative projects and meetings when they are in Hawaii and American Samoa. Responsibilities: In order to deliver regionally relevant coral conservation products and services to the six coral reef partner jurisdictions [Atlantic/Caribbean (Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands) and Pacific (Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands)] within whose waters reside the majority of shallow-water coral reef ecosystems, the CRCP provides technical assistance in coral reef conservation and planning.
