NOAA Prepares To Phase Out Navigation Response Teams | Maritime News | Maritime Executive Magazine

I can make the case that this is an old trick of the Bureaucracy known as closing the Washington Monument.  Some years ago, the National Park Service's budget was threatened with a cut.  NPS announced the cut would force them to close the Washington Monument to the public.  To the surprise of no one -- probably including the legislators who directed the budget cut -- the funds were restored.

This is a cut in one of NOAA's more popular programs.  Stand by.
