"As a part of the Coastal Zone Act Reauthorization Amendments of 1990 (CZARA), Congress created a stand-alone provision, Section 6217, which requires that states and territories with approved coastal management programs develop a coastal Nonpoint pollution control program to address water quality impairment of coastal waters. According to Section 6217, the program must be submitted to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) for approval.
"According to Guidance Specifying Management Measures for Sources of Nonpoint Pollution in Coastal Water (1993), the purpose of the coastal Nonpoint pollution control program “shall be to develop and implement management measures for Nonpoint source pollution to restore and protect coastal waters, working in close conjunction with other state and local authorities.
"The guidance also states that coastal Nonpoint programs are not intended to supplant existing coastal zone management programs and Nonpoint source management programs. Rather, they are to serve as an update and expansion of existing Nonpoint source management programs, and are to be coordinated closely with existing coastal management programs. The legislative history indicates that the central purpose of Section 6217 is to strengthen the links between federal and state coastal zone management and water quality programs, and to enhance state and local efforts to manage land use activities that degrade coastal waters and coastal habitats. The legislative history further indicates that state coastal zone and water quality agencies have a shared responsibility for coastal Nonpoint programs, which is analogous to the sharing of responsibility between NOAA and USEPA at the federal level."
