The Gulf of Mexico Regional Collaboration Team will continue to expand collaboration with the Gulf of Mexico Alliance. The collaboration will integrate relevant components of NOAA's mission with the 2010–2014 Alliance Work Plan and associated supporting actions of the Alliance's six priority issues. As a major partner in the Federal response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, NOAA will continue to provide the necessary coastal and marine expertise required for sound, timely decision-making and help protect the affected Gulf Coast communities and coastal marine environment.
