Texas Coastal Management Program

The Texas Coastal Management Program is a state initiative that oversees the sustainable use and protection of Texas's coastal areas. It coordinates policies to balance economic development, environmental health, and public access along the coast, ensuring responsible planning and conservation of vital ecosystems like wetlands, beaches, and dunes. The program involves collaboration among government agencies, local communities, businesses, and environmental groups to manage activities such as construction, pollution control, and resource use, safeguarding the coast for present and future generations while supporting the region’s economic and recreational activities.
