The regional council set up by the governors of the six New England states to address coastal and ocean management issues is trolling for PR support to engage and inform the public and stakeholders.

The Northeast Regional Ocean Council, formed in 2005 by the governors of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut, has an RFP open through Feb. 8 for communications support of its efforts.

The council is led by state and federal representatives to tackle issues like coastal hazards, ecosystem health and planning of commercial and recreational uses for the ocean.

The council wants a PR proposal to meet broader communications goals beyond its individual projects, including use of digital media to convey its work.
