Biographical/Historical:     The Division of State Planning (DSP) was created in 1972 under the Florida State Comprehensive Planning Act (Chapter 72-295, Laws) and Governor's Executive Orders 73-73 and 74-33. The DSP prepared and revised the state's comprehensive plan regularly; assisted in preparing the annual executive budget and legislative program of the Governor; coordinated planning at the federal, state, and local government levels and between Florida and other states; and served as the state planning and development clearinghouse. The DSP was organized into the Bureaus of Comprehensive Planning, Intergovernmental Relations, Criminal Justice Planning and Assistance, and Highway Safety. In 1979, it's responsibilities transferred to the Governor's Office (Chapter 79-190, Laws).

    The United States Department of the Interior established the Outer Continental Shelf Research Management Advisory Board (OCSRMAB) in 1974. The Board consisted of state and federal representatives with the objective to advise in the design and implementation of environmental research projects related to oil and gas exploration and development on the Outer Continental Shelf, the submerged land and seabed along the United States' coast. Florida's Division of State Planning had ongoing environmental studies planned for the state's coastal areas, so Governor Askew appointed Dr. James I. Jones to represent Florida on the OCSRMAB.

Summary:     This series consists of records maintained by Dr. James I. Jones from the Division of State Planning during his time as Board member of the Outer Continental Shelf Research Management Advisory Board, or OCSRMAB. The records include meeting materials, handwritten notes, newsletters and news clippings, correspondence and reports created by the Board and by Dr. Jones in carrying out the Board's responsibilities.
