The Federal Role The Federal Role
Identifying large scale themesProviding a central focusDeveloping guidance to create a
consistent approach for partners to implement national, as well as state, priorities

Coastal Zone Management ActCoastal Zone Management Act
NOAA has provided guidance for: – State coastal programs
• Program approval• Coastal nonpoint programs• Coastal zone enhancement
– National Estuarine Research Reserves• Management plan approval• Education, research, monitoring, stewardship

Coastal and Estuarine Lands –Coastal and Estuarine Lands –ObjectivesObjectives
Protect important coastal and estuarine areas that have significant conservation, recreation, ecological, historical, or aesthetic values, or that are threatened by conversion from their natural or recreational state to other uses
Give priority to lands that can be effectively managed and protected and that have significant ecological value

Coastal and Estuarine Lands ProgramCoastal and Estuarine Lands Program
Created in FY 2002 through the Commerce-Justice-State Appropriations Act
NOAA directed to develop guidelines for the program
Senate authorization bills introduced in 2002 and 2003
Appropriations language codified at 16 USC 1456d – within CZMA section of US Code

Coastal Storms InitiativeCoastal Storms Initiative
Purpose: to lessen the impacts to coastal communities from coastal storms
Cross NOAA InvolvementTied to CZM ProgramsPilots in Florida, Pacific Northwest,
and Southern California

Coastal Training ProgramCoastal Training Program
An initiative of the National Estuarine Research Reserves
Provides up-to-date information on coastal management topics to a variety of coastal decision-makers
Partners:– State coastal programs– State Sea Grant programs– A variety of local partners

Performance measurementPerformance measurement
Coastal management programs need quantitative information to identify emerging issues as well as to determine whether management programs are being successful and to adapt management techniques.

Performance measurementPerformance measurement
A variety of audiences – Congress– State legislators– The public– Coastal managers
A wide range of indicators are needed to address the breadth of the CZMA

Purposes of reports:– To track the use of funding– To identify progress toward meeting
specific goals– To illustrate the ‘state of the coast’ from
a variety of perspectives – • Environmental, cultural, economic

Federal role– Develop a framework for a national
system– Provide assistance to states
State role– Set state-specific goals– Identify information sources– Report status of indicators

The FutureThe Future
Focusing on Users –– Designing observing systems– Analyzing data– Translating for use– Training decision-makers
Governors need to tell Ocean Commission how federal agencies can be most helpful
