The Jacques
Cousteau National Estuarine Research Reserve (JCNERR) is directing
many of its educational programs towards technical support and training
to Coastal Decision Makers in the Atlantic Coastal Region. JCNERR
is administered by Rutgers University Marine and Coastal Sciences
and the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP).
In
2001, CRSSA collaborated with Rutgers University Marine and Coastal
Sciences to help establish the Coastal Resource Repository (CRR) at
the Reserve's Coastal Education Center in Tuckerton, New Jersey. The
CRR, which includes an extensive GIS data base, offers hands-on GIS
technical support for coastal decision makers through personal consulations
and workshops.

The
Coastal Resource Repository (CRR) contains a comprehensive
GIS data bank incorporating data from a variety of sources
(e.g. federal, state, local entities) that can be used by
Coastal Decision Makers to identify trends in spatial patterns.
GIS can be used to foster science-based management decisions
that involve the principles of best management practices.

the
Coastal Management Program, a federally approved program
under the Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972. Located within
the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, the NJ
Coastal Mangement Program and the JCNERR work in partnership to
bring scientists and decision makers together in communities facing
the challenges of managing land use while protecting groundwater
and the quality of life.
