00:00.328 --> 00:03.495
(gentle guitar music)

00:10.380 --> 00:14.460
- Hi, I'm Arex Avanni, captain
in the U.S. Coast Guard,

00:14.460 --> 00:18.380
and here, the sector
commander for Honolulu.

00:18.380 --> 00:20.850
And we're here today with our partners,

00:20.850 --> 00:23.420
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife and NOAA.

00:23.420 --> 00:25.423
And we're here on Midway Island.

00:28.400 --> 00:31.080
- My name is Jared Underwood
and I'm the superintendent

00:31.080 --> 00:32.740
for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service

00:32.740 --> 00:36.410
for Papahānaumokuākea
Marine National Monument.

00:36.410 --> 00:40.670
The monument is co-managed
by several agencies,

00:40.670 --> 00:44.510
including NOAA and the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service.

00:44.510 --> 00:47.660
And we work very closely with
our partners, the Coast Guard,

00:47.660 --> 00:51.640
on a number of law enforcement
and conservation actions.

00:51.640 --> 00:54.697
And so today we're
visiting the refuge here

00:54.697 --> 00:57.770
and the monument to introduce everyone

00:57.770 --> 01:00.723
to the place that we work.

01:03.690 --> 01:07.160
- We've had a long and
lasting relationship between

01:07.160 --> 01:09.670
the U.S. Coast Guard,
Fish and Wildlife Service,

01:09.670 --> 01:14.020
NOAA and others to manage these beautiful

01:14.020 --> 01:15.723
and remote places in the world.

01:19.200 --> 01:20.570
- Strengthening our partnerships

01:20.570 --> 01:24.860
and getting to understand
each of our roles out here

01:24.860 --> 01:29.360
in the national monument and
enjoying a wonderful tour

01:29.360 --> 01:31.340
by the Fish and Wildlife Service.

01:32.224 --> 01:34.807
