Bill Summary
Coastal State Climate Preparedness Act of 2017
AI Summary
This bill amends the Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972 to require the Secretary of Commerce to establish a coastal climate change adaptation preparedness and response program. The program will provide assistance to coastal states to develop and implement climate change adaptation plans, including identifying vulnerable coastal resources, establishing adaptation strategies, and monitoring environmental changes. The bill authorizes funding for grants to coastal states to develop these plans and implement projects that address climate change impacts, such as sea level rise, coastal erosion, and habitat degradation. The bill also promotes the use of National Estuarine Research Reserves as sites for pilot or demonstration projects.
