First inventory and assessment of coral reef MPAs managed by state and territorial governments in the U.S. Analyzes 207 MPAs located across seven jurisdictions: American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Florida, Guam, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Identifies major challenges to effective MPA management, and recommends steps to improving MPA success. NOAA's Coral Reef Conservation Program developed the report in conjunction with federal, state, territory, and commonwealth partners, and collected information in partnership with the Marine Managed Areas Inventory conducted by the National Marine Protected Areas Center from 2001-2006
