<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;font-size:12pt"><DIV><DIV><P STYLE="margin:0 0 11 0;"><SPAN>In 2019, NOAA launched the Pacific Mapping Cooperative: RICHARD (Rainier Integrates Charting Hydrography and Reef Demographics) Marianas Campaign to develop a plan to conduct much-needed mapping in the Marianas Archipelago. NCCOS was requested to generate contemporary, high-resolution shallow water benthic habitat maps for select areas off Saipan, which is the largest territory in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI). This effort will support coastal management, disaster response, navigation improvements, and national security interests in CNMI.
