Bill Summary

A bill to amend the Digital Coast Act to improve the acquisition, integration, and accessibility of data of the Digital Coast program and to extend the program.

AI Summary

This bill aims to enhance the Digital Coast program, which provides coastal data and tools to help communities prepare for and respond to coastal hazards. Specifically, it proposes to make the data collected by the program "fully and freely available" in addition to being "readily accessible," meaning it should be easy to find and use without cost. The bill also seeks to broaden the types of data collected to include information about underground infrastructure and subsurface utilities, which are crucial for planning and managing coastal development. Furthermore, it clarifies that training provided through the program will be limited to technical instruction on how to use the data and tools, and it extends the authorization for the Digital Coast program from 2025 to 2030.
