Coastal Act Hazards Management
PRC 30253 requires that new development minimize risks to life and property and not require the construction of shoreline protective structures.
PRC 30235 requires the Commission to approve shoreline structures for endangered existing development if it is the least environmentally-damaging, feasible alternative and sand supply impacts are mitigated.
➔76 local coastal government must complete a Local Coastal Program (LCP) to implement the Coastal Act.

✓Context Matters -- no single strategy is right
✓Planning takes time and investment, and meaningful engagement
✓Phased implementation with monitoring, thresholds for action
✓Combination of strategies to structure incentives and provide options
✓Fed, state, local partnerships are essential
✓Social cost benefit assessment of alternatives
✓Significant $$ is needed for adaptation
✓Managing change over decades in a dynamic, complex system
✓Resilience is balance of cost effective risk reduction, environmental
protection & stewardship and social equity.
