  11. Plans should include: • a clear statement of the major regional ocean and coastal management issues, • an outline of existing scientific and informational resources, • an analysis of the information necessary to address the critical issues, and • a prioritized list of actions to be taken. In addition to addressing research needs, the plans should discuss how observational data and decision-support tools might be integrated with the research to best support the needs of the management community. Each plan will include a prioritized list of forecast products that would aid in the transition toward regional ecosystem-based management.

  17. The plan should take into account existing plans and ongoing planning efforts by various regional and local organizations. • Where there is already substantial ongoing activity, the planning efforts should be designed to add value to those efforts, for example by expanding the scope of existing plans, or by establishing priorities among already identified needs.
