Zinser SUBJECT: Final Inspection Report: National Marine Sanctuary Program Protects Certain Resources, But Further Actions Could Increase Protection (IPE-1859 1) As follow-up to our December 5,2007, draft report, we are pleased to provide you with our final report on our review of the National Marine Sanctuary Program (NMSP). We have considered your detailed comments in preparing our final report and have attached them to our draft report as an appendix. We are pleased to report that we found the sanctuary program has implemented a number of management improvements and is generally making progress towards long-term protection of certain resources within the marine sanctuaries system. However, we also found several areas that require management attention. For example, the enforcement of sanctuary regulations remains a challenge. We identified certain areas where enforcement could be improved, in conjunction with NOAA's Office of Law Enforcement and its Office of General Counsel for Enforcement and Litigation. Additionally, we found that sanctuary management plan reviews have not been completed in accordance with the 5-year statutory requirement and that several sanctuary sites have not been able to secure out-year maintenance and operational funding for some vessels, buoys, and visitor facilities.

  • Under Water: a Novel with Critical Introduction
    UNDER WATER: A NOVEL WITH CRITICAL INTRODUCTION A Dissertation by AMBER N. FOSTER Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, M. Jimmie Killingsworth Committee Members, Janet McCann Lucia Hodgson Sarah Gatson Head of Department, Nancy Warren August 2015 Major Subject: English Copyright 2015 Amber N. Foster ABSTRACT Under Water is a literary novel that follows the life experiences of Jess, a solo female scuba diving instructor living and working on Roatan, an island off the coast of Honduras. She learns of the death of her father on the same day she is responsible for the death of a diver under her care. She leaves the island shortly thereafter, only to return five years later at the disappearance of George, a friend and father figure. In the Encyclopedia of Utopian Literature, Mary Ellen Snodgrass defines utopia as a search for a "good place," or "a longing that haunts the unconscious . [a] desire for respite, a stopping place." Similarly, Jess' search for a "good place" structures her quest make a home for herself in Honduras even after experiences of trauma and loss. The critical introduction to the novel includes two research articles in the field of nineteenth-century women's travel narratives and transnational utopian fiction. The first, "Nation as Utopia in Pauline Hopkins' novel Of One Blood; Or, The Hidden Self and The Colored American Magazine," takes an intratextual approach to Hopkins' serial utopian novel in order to resituate African American serial texts within a larger network of national utopian thought.
