Christie, D R

The 1985 session of the Florida legislature produced landmark legislation in the area of coastal land use and resources management. The Growth Management Act and the Coastal Zone Protection Act of 1985, following on the heels of major water resources and wetlands protection acts in 1983 and 1984, can again make Florida a leader in environmental protection and coastal management. Coastal law courses are becoming common in graduate programs and law schools, and they are different because they focus on a place rather than a generally recognized field of law.
