The West Coast Governors Alliance (WCGA) and National Fish and Wildlife
Foundation (NFWF) invite you to submit a proposal to the Regional Data
Framework Action Coordination Team (RDF ACT) for the Data Portal Developer
contract. The RDF ACT is seeking a qualified Data Portal Developer to build
a web-based tool to meet the specific needs of the WCGA Marine Debris and
Regional Data Framework ACTs using semantic web technology and use case
development methods. These needs include, but are not limited to,
visualizing the sources, sinks, environmental transport mechanisms, and
human drivers of marine debris on land and in the coastal environment.

The development of this online tool is critical to ensuring the
availability of timely and accurate scientific information to help guide
and inform decision-making around regional ocean issues such as marine
debris, sea level rise, and ocean acidification. Proposals are due by Aug.
30, 2013. You can read the Request For Proposals (RFP)
here.<http://www.westcoastoceans.org/media/Data_Network_ACT/RDF_Data_Portal_Use_Case_RFP_FINAL.pdf>
