Four New Members Join National Marine Sanctuary System’s Business Advisory Council

June 2021

NOAA’s Office of National Marine Sanctuaries is pleased to welcome four new members to the National Marine Sanctuary System’s Business Advisory Council. The council brings together experts on key sectors, projects, or issues to provide advice and recommendations to the director related to the management and conservation of sanctuary resources.

In April, the council elected Dave Bulthuis, president of Pure Fishing N.A. as Chair, and Taishya Adams as Vice Chair.

The council also created two working groups. One will focus on marketing and outreach efforts to highlight the role national marine sanctuaries play in building strong local economies.

The council’s next meeting will be held on Wednesday, July 7, 2021, from 1:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET. The meeting will be held virtually using Google Meet.
