The framework recognizes ecological, cultural, historic, recreational, and aesthetic values while balancing protection with economic development in marine and coastal areas. The ORMP complements Hawaii’s vision for a healthy, productive, and sustainable ocean ecosystem that fosters economic growth while preserving and protecting Hawaii’s values and needs. Updated in 5-year increments, the 2013 ORMP was developed with the participation of county, state, and federal agencies responsible for ocean and coastal resources. Statewide public involvement was achieved through two rounds of Public Listening Sessions held on six islands to determine how the ORMP can be more responsive to local communities and stewardship organizations, and to develop new strategies and solutions. The ORMP is driven by three perspectives: (1) Connecting Land and Sea; (2) Preserving our Ocean Heritage; and (3) Promoting Collaboration and Stewardship. The plan was updated to incorporate the National Ocean Policy and integrates with other state efforts such as the Hawaii 2050 Sustainability Plan and the A New Day in Hawaii Plan. Most importantly, it identifies 11 management priorities with multiple goals and corresponding metrics to track the progress of each implementation measure. Start & End Dates Jan 2012-Jul 2013 Cost of Services $265,120 Description of Work Approach During the first phase of work, managers from user state county and federal agencies were interviewed as to how they were using the previous plan and recommendations for improvement. This frames the process that was used for the update. The Draft and later Final Plan addressed metrics and strategies for implementation. These were groups into eleven management priorities. Lead agencies were asked to commit to their role by signing the plan. The signature page was both a symbolic and a real commitment to plan implementation. Description of Outreach Program Three advisory groups met throughout the process: Policy, Technical and Public. They deliberated on drafts of the plan over a nine month period. Public input was sought through two rounds of community meetings. This included Open House display, presentation, and discussion groups. A project website was maintained throughout the project.
