The House report accompanying H.R. 4450 describes the proposed amendment, including its purpose and the legislative background, reviews the hearings and committee findings, and summarizes potential economic impacts and effects on the budget. The bill amends the Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972 to improve management of the coastal zone and enhance environmental protection of coastal zone resources. It is the national interest to manage, protect, and develop with proper environmental safeguards, the coastal zone. In view of competing demands and the urgent need to protect and give priority to maintaining natural systems in the coastal zone, present state and local capabilities are inadequate to plan for and regulate land and water uses in these areas.
