With the establishment of an Interagency Ocean Policy Task Force, the Obama Administration is taking an important step towards protecting our oceans. The Task Force is developing recommendations for a national policy regarding the protection, maintenance, and restoration of the nation's oceans, coasts, and the Great Lakes.

The Task Force is seeking comments from the general public, and it is essential that these comments reflect strong citizen support for the protection and wise stewardship of our marine environment. Please take a moment to tell the Task Force [1] why you think it is important to protect the ocean.
