The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is providing ongoing funding through the National Coastal Zone Management Program to the state of South Carolina to help administer the state's federally approved coastal management program.

The National Coastal Zone Management Program, under the Coastal Zone Management Act, is an important voluntary federal-state partnership that protects, restores, and responsibly develops our nation's coastal communities and resources. This program aims to balance economic development, coastal uses, and natural resource protection.

NOAA's investment of over $2,873,000 is leveraging over $2,524,000 in state funds. These funds will support jobs and provide continued assistance to the South Carolina Coastal Management Program. The program will address many important coastal issues in the state, including coastal hazards and climate change, habitat protection, water quality, and coastal and marine debris.

For example, one project will administer marine debris and removal.
