- The U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and NESDIS Acquisition Division SAP Team on behalf of NOAA intends to negotiate on a sole source basis under FAR Parts 6 and 13 with the American Fisheries Society, to: 1) conduct quarterly to bi-annual seminars on Capital Hill focusing on current issues in fisheries and other aquatic resources; 2) development and dissemination of policy statements related to biodiversity, habitat protection, and watershed management; 3) work with other likeminded societies to improve public understanding of the fundamental underpinnings of the fisheries of the world; 4) provide timely, scientific information to professionals, stakeholders, governments, and the general public through, paper and online journal publications, position statements, and white papers; 5) re-examine the diversity of the human resources that we find in the fisheries profession and our society and aim to equilibrate those numbers; 6) develop a new strategic plan for the period 2010-2015; and 7) provide cost-efficient services, operations, and support for its members. International collaboration with other societies through Topic Oriented Meetings will provide professional development opportunities for both international and North American fisheries professionals.
