- The National Coastal Zone Management Program is a program of the US government that works with states and territories to protect, restore, and responsibly develop coastal communities, resources, and economies. The program is housed within the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Office for Coastal Management. NOAA is an agency within the Department of Commerce. Participation is voluntary and 34 states and territories participate. States and territories agree to develop state programs that uphold the requirements specified in the founding legislation, the Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972. Every five years, participants review their programs in one or more of the following areas: wetlands, coastal hazards, public access, marine debris, aquaculture, cumulative and secondary impacts of development, special area management plans, ocean and Great Lakes resources, and energy and government facility siting. NOAA and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency also jointly administer the Coastal Nonpoint Pollution Control program. The stated goal of the program is to reduce polluted runoff to coastal waters. The six main runoff sources are agriculture, forestry, urban areas, wetlands, modified shorelines and stream channels, and vegetative and other treatment systems. This program was established in 1990 by Section 6217 of the Coastal Zone Act Reauthorization Amendments. (en)
