This world-class facility consolidates NOAA programs and operations on the island of O’ahu into a single facility on federally-owned property at Ford Island. NOAA in Hawai’i manages an extensive portfolio of programs addressing fisheries, ocean, coastal, climate, and atmospheric issues in the Pacific. These programs are diverse and geographically wide-ranging, affecting not just Hawai’i, but also the larger Pacific region.

By bringing its programs together into one facility, NOAA will realize benefits in improved operations and mission performance, longer-term operational savings, and opportunities for greater program collaboration and synergy—both within NOAA and with external partners. This facility is a vision shared between NOAA Leadership from 2005, architecture firm HOK and associate architect Ferraro Choi & Associates Ltd.
