Description:

Website of the National Sea Grant Law Center (SGLC) a United States research body founded in 2002 and based at the University of Mississippi. The Center "conducts research on marine laws and policies, coordinates ocean and coastal law researchers, and disseminates information to coastal and ocean policy-makers". Sea Grant is a partnership between the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and universities that work with coastal communities conducting research, education, outreach and technology transfer. SGLC provides an advisory service to the legal and academic communities and government agencies. Responses to enquiries are made available on the site and cover issues such as abandoned vessels, admiralty law and aquaculture. Full text copies of the SGLCs journals, SandBar and the Sea Grant Law and Policy Journal, are provided online along with legislative and regulatory factsheets, reports and materials relating to fisheries management. There is also a page of links to government agencies, academic institutions and organisations concerned with marine issues.
