The BLM completed a plan for the Northeast NPR-A (4.6 million acres) in 1998. The BLM amended this plan from 2003-2005 and completed a Final Supplemental Plan for the Northeast NPR-A in May 2008. A proposal by Conoco-Philips Alaska, Inc., for oil development in the Northeast NPR-A and the Colville River Delta resulted in the completion of the Alpine Satellite Development Plan in 2004. The BLM also completed a plan for the Northwest NPR-A in 2004, and in 2005, the BLM initiated a plan for South NPR-A that was discontinued in 2007. Chapters 3 (Affected Environment) and 4 (Environmental Consequences) of the NPR-A Integrated Activity Plan/Environmental Impact Statement provide detailed descriptions of the affected

Concluding Observations Appendices Appendix 1: May 2014 Strategic Plan Appendix 2: Faculty Curriculum Vitae Appendix 3: Grants Awarded to the Ad-loc Faculty Appendix 4: Publications listed by year for the Ad-loc Faculty Appendix 5: Oceanography Courses Executive Summary The Department of Oceanography at Texas A&M University, founded in 1949 as the first oceanographic department established at an academic institution, is deeply committed to the unique mission of an AAU member institution with Land-, Sea-, and Space- grant status. With strengthened ties to other marine related units at the College Station and Galveston campuses, and significant investments from the University, we are poised to realize our strategic vision to join the nation’s top rank of institutions for oceanographic research and education at public universities. As part of our 2014 strategic planning effort, we have restructured our departmental educational, research and engagement activities into four interdisciplinary areas of strength: Ocean Observing Science and Technology, Marine Ecosystems Science and Health, Ocean Climate, and Ocean Energy. Observations, in a very broad sense, form the baseline for all of our strategic interdisciplinary themes, and are at the core of our vision to transform STEM education through a focus on big data competency.
