MPA Community Compliance Forum
The MPA Collaborative Network held Community Compliance Forums for each coastal county as part of a multi-year Compliance Initiative funded by the Ocean Protection Council. The Forums provided space for local stakeholders to voice their MPA, ocean, and coastal compliance concerns and brainstorm ideas to address those concerns.
San Mateo MPA Videos
The San Mateo MPA Collaborative created videos to educate future visitors about the Fitzgerald Marine Reserve, the Montara State Marine Reserve, the Pillar Point State Marine Conservation Area and MPAs overall with the aim to build a diverse, inclusive community working together in support of MPAs.
The Montara State Marine Reserve video includes messages from local wardens, resource managers, anglers, and more. The film can be shown as is or broken down to produce smaller features to share on social media or modified to apply to all MPAs.
