Description:
This report is compiled with a special sense of satisfaction since it marks completion of the tenth year of Sea Grant Extension Program activities in New York. It has been a fine decade! Ten years ago one might have reasonably concluded New York largely had ignored its coastal resources. This posture was certainly true in most academic institutions and extension education programs in which only a handful of persons focused on coastal issues. In 1982, more than 100 extension professionals in at least 25 New York counties had involvement in coastal related educational programs. Similarly, 50 university faculty at 15 New York institutions actively pursued resolution of coastal problems. Sea Grant can legitimately claim major responsibility for this dramatic shift in emphasis. With a sense of pride then, we are pleased to present selected Sea Grant Extension Program accomplishments for 1982. Summarized within are educational program activities and accomplishments​ of the New York Sea Grant Extension Program in the areas of coastal issues, coastal erosion, recreation and tourism, commercial fishing, seafood processing and marketing, consumer fish use and education. About 50,000 individual clientele contacts and several million media contacts resulted from the combined activities of Sea Grant and county staff. Activities and accomplishments included were selected to indicate the nature of program directions, and a few of many benefits to the people and economy of our nation and state. Each of the seven major program areas plus campus-based support and program leadership is described briefly and selected events and outcomes listed. Example anecdotes are included in each section to provide insight to more complex or longer term program efforts. Detailed background information and situational analysis for the major program areas are not included. These may be found in the 1982 Situation Statement and Program Plan.
