U.S. Congress passed the Coastal Zone
Management Act of 1972 (CZMA), 16
U.S.C. 1451 et. seq. The CZMA
authorized a federal program to
encourage coastal states and territories
to develop comprehensive coastal
management programs. The CZMA has
been reauthorized on several occasions,
most recently with the enactment of the
Coastal Zone Protection Act of 1996.
(CZMA as amended). The program is
administered by the Secretary of
Commerce, who in turn has delegated
this responsibility to the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration’s (NOAA) National
Ocean Services (NOS).
The coastal zone management grants
provide funds to states and territories to:
implement federally-approved coastal
management programs; complete
information for the Coastal Zone
Management Program (CZMP)
Performance Management System;
develop program assessments multi-year
strategies to enhance their programs
within priority areas under Section 309
of the CZMA; submit documentation as
described in the CZMA Section 306a on
the approved coastal zone management
programs; submit requests to update
their federally-approved programs
through amendments or program
changes; and develop and submit state
coastal nonpoint pollution control
programs (CNP) as required under
Section 6217 of the Coastal Zone Act
Reauthorization Amendments.
Revision: The CZMP Performance
Measurement System has been revised
to reduce the number of measures on
which state programs are required to
report, resulting in an overall decrease
in reporting burden for the performance
measurement system. The assessment
process under CZMA Section 309 has
also been refined to rely more on readily
available existing data and allow states
to more quickly focus their assessments
on high-priority enhancement areas.
Affected Public: State, local and tribal
governments.
Frequency: Annually, semi-annually
and on occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to
obtain or retain benefits.
This information collection request
may be viewed at reginfo.gov. Follow
the instructions to view Department of
Commerce collections currently under
review by OMB.
Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this
notice to OIRA_Submission@
omb.eop.gov or fax to (202) 395–5806.
