Bill Intelligence

The "Integrated Ocean Observation System Reauthorization Act of 2025" aims to update the Integrated Coastal and Ocean Observation System Act of 2009. The bill expands the scope of observations to include ocean and meteorological data, updates definitions, and enhances the system's capacity for regional collaboration. It requires a post-storm evaluation for major storms, authorizes appropriations of $56 million annually until 2030, and allocates a minimum of 7.5% of funds to existing regional coastal observing systems. Conforming amendments update references from "Council" to "Committee" to reflect structural changes within the Act.
