New York Sea Grant is part of a nationwide network of 33 university-based programs working with coastal communities through the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Sea Grant is funded in New York through SUNY and Cornell University, and federally through NOAA.
It is working with SUNY Oswego’s Office of Business and Community Relations on the initiative.
They’ve assembled the Oswego County Recreation and Tourism BR&E task force, which includes representatives from the business, government, tourism, and planning sectors.
The task force developed the survey to assess the status and need for business owners’ workforce training and professional development, along with the overall condition and characteristics of the Oswego County recreation and tourism-business community, the organizations said.
