NOAA HSRP TOPICS and BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
The HSRP is a Federal Advisory Committee that provides NOAA with independent advice on improving the quality, efficiency, and usefulness of NOAA’s navigation-related products, data, and services. The HSRP advises the NOAA Administrator about its navigation (i.e. nautical charts and ENCs), physical oceanographic (i.e. tides & water levels), geospatial, positioning, and shoreline programs, products, and services. There are two public meetings each year in different port regions at which NOAA seeks public comments from stakeholders and partners.

AGENDA and MEETING DOCUMENTS:
Attached is a draft agenda. The times and speakers are subject to change. The meeting agenda is updated and additional information is available at: https://www.nauticalcharts.noaa.gov/hsrp/hsrp.html
