Requires new steps to protect NOAA's important data storage.
This bill would make sure that important data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is always stored safely. It would require the Secretary of Commerce to follow specific steps before canceling contracts with companies that store this data. This helps ensure the uninterrupted storage and protection of NOAA's data sets.
Currently, the Secretary of Commerce can cancel contracts for storing National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) data without specific conditions to ensure the data remains available. After this bill, the Secretary would need to develop a transition plan for uninterrupted storage. They would also need to collaborate with the NOAA Administrator before canceling contracts. This ensures NOAA's data sets are continuously protected.
