RECOMMENDATION: The Ocean Research Priorities Plan should provide a bold and compelling vision for the future of ocean science research. This vision should be placed near the front of the plan and referenced throughout to help integrate the discrete sections of the document.

From page 2... ...
The ORPP lists items to be addressed in the Implementation Strategy including the roles and responsibilities of different agencies in implementing the plan, mechanisms for cooperation and coordination of agency activities, and performance measures. Since this information was not provided in the draft ORPP, it is difficult to evaluate if the research priorities can be achieved.

From page 3... ...
The placement in the current draft plan, with 3 sections at the end of the document, misses the opportunity to effectively integrate each of these cross-cutting areas into the ORPP. RECOMMENDATION: The plan should be reorganized to include a discrete section devoted to cross-cutting elements that are central to the vision for ocean research.
