Prince William Sound Science &
The Prince William Sound Science and Technology Institute (d.b.a.

Establishment of the Center followed the Exxon Valdez oil spill, although planning of this institution preceded that event. The underlying philosophy of the Center is to serve as a model for long-term ecosystem management.
