Enforcement Priorities Fiscal Years 2018-2022

OLE has established a 5-year priority-setting process to help accomplish our mission, guide our strategic planning, and focus the use of our enforcement assets where they are most needed. To guide this process, OLE uses NOAA's strategic plans, historical enforcement data, emerging threat information, and stakeholder input to identify areas in greatest need of enforcement effort, whether to maintain an existing level of compliance or to target areas where increased compliance may be required.
