Coastal Management Politics: A View from Capitol Hill
The Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972 emerged from the national debate about land use in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Despite public support for environmental protection, enactment of the CZMA was clouded by a gloomy prognosis and by the lack of presidential enthusiasm for the program. This article traces the evolution of political forces that helped to establish and sustain coastal management as a federal function during the program's first decade; identifies the support of coastal state congressmen as the most important single factor in the program's survival; and raises questions about the capacity of legislative efforts to respond to the current budgetary austerity of the Reagan administration.
