• The Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) has released a new interactive map detailing the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) extensive presence across the country.
• The map was created to show how proposed budget cuts and job eliminations would impact local communities nationwide.
• NOAA’s services are vital for daily weather forecasts, emergency alerts, climate research, coastal restoration, and managing American fisheries.
• The map is the first visual compilation of this information, revealing a total of 735 NOAA sites across the U.S.
• These sites include nearly 200 National Ocean Service offices and 200 National Weather Service offices.
• The data is broken down by federal budget line item to clearly show how specific cuts would affect a community.
• Officials emphasize that cuts to NOAA programs could seriously threaten public safety and the economy by undermining weather reporting and storm tracking.
