Description:
The Mobile Bay National Estuary Program's Comprehensive Conservation and Management Plan was finalized on April 22, 2002. The guidance document for the preparation of this Implementation Review states "EPA, in recognition that each NEP may have different areas of emphasis, strengths, and challenges in implementation, acknowledges that some NEP's may have made greater progress on some issues than on others. Nonetheless, EPA requires a program to describe the status of progress regardless of the extent and if appropriate, should indicate any reasons for limited activity." Accordingly, the following topics are addressed in this report: Status of CCMP Implementation (programmatic progress); Environmental Results; Resources (funding); Technical Assistance and Public Education; Institutional Coordination and Public Involvement; Overall Program Strengths and Limitations; and Feedback on EPA Involvement.
