National Oceanographic Partnership Program (NOPP)

Abstract

This activity focuses on US Navy investments in the National Oceanographic Partnership Program (NOPP). NOPP, established by the US Congress (Public Law 104-201) in Fiscal Year 1997, is a unique collaboration among 15 federal agencies involved in conducting, funding, or utilizing results of ocean research. NOPP's value to the Navy derives from the capacity of the partnership to enable and ensure multi-agency efforts where such collaboration enhances efficiency or effectiveness, and/or reduces costs. Generally, NOPP investments are made on topics that cross-agency missions, fall in gaps between agencies and/or are too large for any one agency to fund itself.
