Director’s Presentation

OCS Scientific Committee

1999 Meeting Summary - Director’s Presentation

Director’s Presentation

Director Walt Rosenbusch has been with the MMS for the past six months as its Director and gave background information on his credentials. He cited the goal of the MMS is to be the unquestioned leader in both the domestic and international area of resource management and, in order to accomplish this goal, the MMS needs to reach out to groups such as the OCS SC and rely upon the science and the guidance that is given the MMS to better manage the OCS resources.

Director Rosenbush presented plaques to outgoing members’ Drs. Biliana Cicin-Sain, Joanna Endter-Wada, and Lee Huskey. Outgoing members not in attendance to accept their plaques were Drs. Mary Altalo, Bill Merrell, and Jim O’Reilly. Dr. Endter-Wada was also presented a plaque in appreciation for her serving as the Chair for the past two years.
