In terms of tools and from a science perspective, I will reiterate what I said in response to Mr. Lunney's question, insofar as I do think that a national conservation plan would be well guided by having national operational objectives and the means of determining whether we're making progress in achieving those objectives.
In order to do that, I think we will eventually—and we already are doing this to some extent—make some use of remote sensing technologies, for example. We're regularly looking at satellite tracking of a variety of different things, including animals sometimes on a daily basis, through meteorological activities. But I suspect that remote sensing will become an increasing part of this. Habitat mapping of the ocean is an extremely difficult thing to do, and it's extremely early days in which to do it. We really don't have decent habitat maps of much of our ocean at all. We have the longest coastline in the world and little capacity to monitor what's happening.
To, at a minimum, get back and reiterate the importance of monitoring programs, which only government can provide—universities can't do it, since they don't have the infrastructure or the money or the long-term data sets—I think can still be done efficiently and effectively and expediently. Without that information we will have difficulty knowing whether we're achieving what we wish to achieve with a plan such as this one.
