STAFF ANALYSIS. The federally-approved California Coastal Management Program (CCMP) comprises three distinct state agencies: the Commission, BCDC, and the California State Coastal Conservancy (Conservancy). The CZMA requires that one single state agency be the primary recipient of all federal CZMA funds awarded to the CCMP. The Coastal Act designates the Commission to serve this purpose. Therefore, any federal CZMA funds for other state agencies must be received by the Commission; included in the Commission’s budget; and passed through to the other CCMP agencies by means of an interagency agreement. The arrangement to pass through funds has been used since 1977, when the United States Department of Commerce approved the CCMP.

STAFF ANALYSIS. The federally approved California Coastal Management Program (CCMP) comprises three distinct state agencies: the Commission, BCDC, and the State Coastal Conservancy (Conservancy). The CZMA requires that one single state agency be the primary recipient of all federal CZMA funds awarded to the CCMP. The Coastal Act designates the Commission to serve this purpose. Therefore, any federal CZMA funds for other state agencies must be received by the Commission, included in the Commission’s budget, and passed through to the other CCMP agencies by means of an interagency agreement. The arrangement to pass through funds has been used since 1978 when the United States Department of Commerce approved the CCMP. For Fiscal Year 2014-2015, which starts July 1, 2014, the State of California will receive $2,712,000 CZMA funds. Using a formula agreed to in prior years, the funds will be distributed as follows: BCDC will receive $329,200, and the Coastal Commission will retain the remaining $2,382,800 (see table below). The grant funds will be awarded pursuant to two sections of the CZMA: Sections 306 and 309. The Conservancy did not request any funds from the FY 2014-2015 CZMA grant, consistent with years past. Given the Conservancy’s role in developing and implementing programs to protect, restore, and enhance resources in the coastal zone and the San Francisco Bay, and the uncertainty of future opportunities to secure funding from state bonds or other sources, future federal CZMA funding may be of interest to the Conservancy.

The Commission uses Section 306 funding to support core program activities, including staff work on permits, appeals, LCPs, federal consistency review, and enforcement.

STAFF ANALYSIS. The Federal Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA), requires that only one state agency be the primary recipient of federal CZMA funds. The Coastal Act designates the Coastal Commission to serve this purpose. Therefore, any federal CZMA funds for BCDC and other state agencies must be received by the Commission, included in the Commission’s budget, and passed through to the other agencies by means of an interagency agreement. The arrangement to pass through funds has been used since 1977, when the U. S. Department of Commerce approved California’s Coastal Management Program. TABLE A: Breakdown of FY 2008/2009 Coastal Zone Management Grant Funds by Agency & Section CZMA Sections CA Coastal Commission BCDC State Coastal Conservancy CZMA grant section TOTALS Section 306 Coastal Management Program (*state match required) $1,770,300* $196,700* (no funds requested) $1,967,000* Section 309 Enhancement Grants $411,000 $125,000 $536,000 Nonpoint Source Program (Section 310) Protecting Coastal Waters (*state match required) $58,000* $10,000* $68,000* $2,239,300 $331,700 $ 0 Total Grant $2,571,000 In Fiscal Year 2008/2009, the State of California has been granted a total of $2,571,000 in CZMA funds: BCDC will receive $331,700, and the Coastal Commission will retain the remaining $2,239,300 (see Table A, page 1). The grant funds will be awarded pursuant to three sections of the CZMA, Sections 306, 309, and 310. Section 306 - $1,967,000 (CCC $1,770,300 and BCDC $196,700) Section 306 funds provide program implementation funding for California’s Coastal Program. The state is required to match any Section 306 funds that are granted to it by the federal government. The state match for BCDC is included in their 2008/2009 budget; and, therefore, the Coastal Commission will not incur any additional expense. Section 309 - $536,000 (CCC $411,000 and BCDC $125,000) In 1990, the Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) was reauthorized and amended to add a new “Coastal Zone Enhancements Grants” program under CZMA Section 309. In 2006, the Coastal Commission updated the 2001 Assessment and Strategy and identified California’s four highest priorities “coastal zone enhancement objectives.” The four highlighted objectives identified were: special area management planning, wetlands, cumulative and secondary impacts and coastal hazards. The Coastal Commission prepared a multi-year Section 309 Strategy for improving the California Coastal Management Program in the four priority areas. BCDC pr...
