The
Sanctuary Management Plan - 1993 Plan
A
sanctuary management plan is a site-specific planning and management
document that describes the objectives, policies, and activities
for a sanctuary. Management plans generally outline regulatory
goals, describe boundaries, identify staffing and budget needs,
set priorities and performance measures for resource protection,
research, and education programs. They also guide the development
of future management activities. The
Gerry E. Studds Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary Management
Plan and Final Environmental Impact Statement was published
in 1993 after the designation of the Sanctuary. That document
is now out of print. This web site contains the text of that
original Management Plan. The Sanctuary is undergoing a Management
Plan Review to ensure that our plan is up-to-date and able to
best conserve, protect, and enhance this nationally significant
marine site. When the new Management Plan is published (scheduled
for 2004), the complete document (in html and pdf versions)
will be available at this page.
