National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA's)
National Marine Fisheries Service is in the process of "renewing"
its 50-year old laboratory in Honolulu, Hawaii. NOAA is planning
to construct a state-of-the-art mixed use fisheries research laboratory
to replace its existing facility. The new "showcase" laboratory
will fully incorporate a variety of innovative practices. These
include using the "whole building" philosophy to design
and maximizing energy-efficient equipment and "green"
building products.
NOAA's mission is to describe and predict changes in the Earth's
environment, and conserve and wisely manage America's coastal and
marine resources. By addressing environmental challenges, NOAA works
as an integral part of the Department of Commerce to further the
nation's capabilities for sustainable development, embracing the
link between the economic and environmental goals of the United
States. For more on this partner, please visit www.noaa.gov.
