The Northeast Regional Planning Body, comprised of federal, state, and tribal officials representing Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont, has released draft goals (and associated potential outcomes and actions) for public comment. Comments can be submitted online here through Friday, June 28, or in person at meetings being held in the Northeast through June 25.
The Northeast Regional Planning Body has been established pursuant to the 2010 National Ocean Policy Executive Order, which requires the establishment of regional planning bodies and coastal and marine spatial plans in all nine coastal regions of the U.S.
