"The work presented here is being facilitated by the NOAA Coral Reef Conservation Program (NOAA CRCP) as part of an ongoing effort to develop place-based, local coral reef management priorities in each of the seven U.S. state and territorial coral reef jurisdictions (American Samoa, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Florida, Hawai'i, Guam, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands) and conduct capacity assessments to identify the support needed to accomplish those priorities. The first step in this effort has been to work with the core group of coral reef managers (local, place-based) in each jurisdiction to articulate a set of strategic coral reef management priorities. The second, and next, step will be to complete a capacity needs assessment that helps each state and territory realize these priorities"--Introduction.

"This capacity assessment, commissioned by National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration's Coral Reef Conservation Program, directly follows the coral reef management priority setting process facilitated by NOAA CRCP and initiated in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands in 2009. In the CNMI, the priorities were summarized in the publication of 'Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands' Coral Reef Management Priorities' (henceforth, the 'PSD'). The PSD forms the lens for the capacity assessment process. As outlined in Section One of this report, the consultant team facilitated a rapid, largely qualitative, participatory approach to gain the perspectives of a representative group of resource users, managers, upper-level administrators and funders who are engaged in coral reef management in the CNMI. The primary purpose of this assessment is to examine the issues that affect capacity in the CNMI as it relates to implementing the priorities expressed in the PSD and present a set of near-term recommendations for addressing persistent capacity gaps and barriers. The recommendations are offered in an appreciation of the context of the persistent capacity gaps and barriers. The recommendations are offered in an appreciation of the context of the CNMI. Implementation of the recommendations will require an implementation strategy that is adaptive. Based on the changing conditions, some recommendations may be dropped, others implemented as planned, and yet others arise as priorities that may not have been anticipated as part of this process. Indeed, the challenges facing coral reef management in the CNMI will require a long-term strategy for building adaptive capacity within the current governance system as well as an appreciation for what may be needed to change the existing system. As with the other jurisdictions that depend on the goods and services that coral reef ecosystems provide, the CNMI will need to honestly evaluate its current ecosystem governance paradigm and structures that support or impede it. Shifting to new governance pathways may be very difficult as it requires exploring new paradigms for economic growth and sustainable development that may challenge current opinions and worldviews, incentives, power relationships, and institutions operating at different scales that do not support such shifts"--Page 6 (Introduction).

"Over the past three years, the NOAA Coral Reef Conservation Program (CRCP) has completed a se-ries of steps to define what needs to be done at the national and jurisdictional levels to conserve coral reefs in the United States flagged jurisdictions (hereafter jurisdictions). The results of these processes are clearly described in the NOAA CRCP National Goals and Objectives document and the Coral Reef Management Priority documents (hereafter priority setting documents) for each of the seven jurisdictions with coral reefs (American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Florida, Guam, Hawai`i, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands). However, despite understanding what should be done, staff from the CRCP national and jurisdictional offices as well as Points of Con-tact (POCs) from the jurisdictions have expressed concern that the capacity to implement the necessary steps identified in these documents is variable across the jurisdictions and, in many cases, is insufficient. Because of this, CRCP has decided to follow the priority setting process with a coral reef management capacity assessment performed by an external consultant team led by SustainaMetrix. This document is intended to serve as a methodological guide for the consultant team to develop and implement methods that are customized to the unique context, scale and timing of the coral reef management capacity assessment in each of the seven jurisdictions"--Background.

"Coral reef managers face the challenge of reducing vulnerability to the effects of climate change by reducing other sources of stress to support the resilience of reef systems. Resiliencebased management (RBM) has been developed to overcome the challenges of reducing vulnerability in this era of rapid change. RBM of coral reefs can include assessing spatial variation in resilience potential and then targeting and tailoring appropriate actions, which is the focus of the project reported on here"--Project background.
