North Pacific Research Board Enhancement Act

This bill amends the North Pacific Research Board's structure and funding rules. It adds a new board member position representing Alaska Natives with subsistence experience, requiring nomination by the Board and appointment by the Secretary. The bill removes a previous 15% cap on administrative funding for the Board, allowing all funds to support research and grants, but mandates that by 5 years after enactment, no more than 15% of funds can cover Board support and grant administration. The changes aim to increase research funding focus and ensure high-quality grant management.
