Description:The position of Marine Affairs Coordinator was established within the Office of the Governor by Act 137 of the 1970 Hawaii State Legislature. In declaring its findings and needs, the Legislature identified the marine environment as one of Hawaii's most valuable assets, whose optimal development and utilization would require deep involvement of State government. Further, the Legislature declared the necessity for a planned and concerted development effort, which would require a mechanism that cut across the line duties of various State agencies. This mechanism was the establishment of the Marine Affairs Coordinator, who was mandated, subject to the Governor's approval, to develop long-range plans, formulate specific programs, con duct analyses of existing and proposed marine programs, assist departments involved in marine affairs, coordinate multi-agency marine activities, and promote increased Federal and private involvement in marine programs. Act 149 of the 1977 Hawaii State Legislature amended the original law by deleting the provision requiring approval of the Governor in the conduct of duties, and established a semi-annual reporting requirement for the bene fit of the Governor and Legislature. Since 1970, the Marine Affairs Coordinator has funded projects with $5,481,431 in State monies and, in so doing, has generated $7,234,858 in Federal and private grants. Activities from Fiscal Years 1970-75 have been reported in the three previous annual reports. This report will summarize projects sponsored in Fiscal Years 1976 and 1977, and identify those activities currently being conducted in Fiscal Year 1978.
