Florida Coastal Management Program
The Florida Coastal Management Program is a state initiative aimed at protecting and preserving Florida's coastal areas and resources. It helps manage land use, development, and natural resources along the coast, ensuring ecosystems are healthy while supporting economic activities like tourism and fishing. The program coordinates efforts among local, state, and federal agencies to address issues such as habitat loss, pollution, and climate change impacts. By doing so, it seeks to balance environmental conservation with community needs and economic growth, fostering sustainable practices for Florida's unique coastal environments.
