Report on Effectiveness of Coastal Zone Management Act

"In 1972 Congress passed the Coastal Zone Management Act (CZMA) to "preserve, protect, develop, and, where possible, restore or enhance the resources of the Nations coastal zone." After 30 years, can we say how well we are managing our nations coastal resources? Have we achieved a harmonious balance between use and conservation? If so, what worked, and if not, are we making headway?... The Heinz Center has taken an important step toward answering these vital questions in its latest report, The Coastal Zone Management Act: Developing a Framework for Identifying Performance Indicators." - excerpt from the Heinz Center's website at http://www.heinzctr.org/Press_Releases/CZM.htm where the full report is available.
