  "definition": "An objective is a more specific statement of the desired outcome. It should be specific enough to allow scientists to develop measures from them for a risk assessment. Objectives for Waquoit Bay included: \"Restore and maintain self-sustaining native fish populations and their habitat.\" Objectives include an entity (native fish in this case), some attribute (population), and a desired state or direction of change (self-sustainability). Note that assessments endpoints are similar in that they include an entity and an attribute, but do not include a desired state or direction of change.",
