Although slightly reduced from the 1994 funding level of $2 billion, James Baker, under secretary for Oceans and Atmosphere at NOAA, said they are “pleased with the numbers.” The total request for 1995 of $1.96 billion includes some new programmatic funds, and the decrease from fiscal 1994 reflects, in part, some one‐time projects in last year's budget, Baker said. NOAA's budget request for 1995 is driven by its strategic plan, which was established in 1993 to unify the agency, identify coherent objectives that capitalize on available resources across NOAA's program elements, and develop implementation measures to maximize cost‐effectiveness. The strategic plan organizes NOAA's program responsibilities into two broad “portfolios”—Environmental Stewardship and Environmental Assessment and Prediction, and two other priorities—Cross‐Cut Programs and Infrastructure.
