Beaufort Sea
Partnership
The Beaufort Sea Partnership (BSP) is the primary forum for stakeholder engagement in integrated ocean management of the Beaufort Sea area. The BSP has broad stakeholder representation from 53 organizations providing a forum for all groups who are active or have an interest in the Beaufort Sea Large Ocean Management Area (LOMA) to share information about their activities/interests. The BSP is comprised of regional level representatives and has an open membership, meaning that any organization with an interest in the management of the Beaufort Sea can become a member with the approval of the Regional Coordination Committee (RCC). The BSP builds on work done by the Working Groups, considers questions formulated by the RCC, and makes recommendations to the RCC. The BSP also serves as a network to identify new opportunities for collaboration and to prevent duplication of efforts by raising awareness of current and upcoming initiatives in the Beaufort Sea.
