Description

Abstract: Formal marine reserve discussions began in Oregon, at the state level, in 2000. In 2008, the state began a process to establish a limited system of marine reserve sites within state waters. In 2009, the state’s first two sites were established: Redfish Rocks Marine Reserve and Marine Protected Area located on Oregon’s south coast near Port Orford, and Otter Rock Marine Reserve located on Oregon’s central coast near Depoe Bay. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) is the designated lead agency responsible for implementation of Oregon’s system of marine reserve sites. To that effect, in 2009 ODFW established a program comprised of staff responsible for developing and implementing site management plans, ecological monitoring, human dimensions (socioeconomic) monitoring, outreach activities, and community engagement as part of marine reserves implementation. The Otter Rock Marine Reserve Site Management Plan was developed by ODFW staff with assistance and collaboration from the Depoe Bay Near Shore Action Team. This document describes the state’s implementation goals, objectives, and strategies for the Otter Rock Marine Reserve (Otter Rock site).
