SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA - AUGUST 13: Sea lions rest on rocks along the Pacific Ocean at La Jolla cove as a gull flies on August 13, 2026 in San Diego, California. A current off-cycle Trump administration NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) review of California’s coastline management authority is being opposed by many state leaders who fear changes to the program could strip state oversight and clear the way for increased offshore drilling, rocket launches, and coastal industrialization. For more than 50 years, the Coastal Zone Management Act has permitted coastal states, including California, to review federal projects along their coastlines. According to the California Coastal Commission, the state’s coast and ocean economy generates $51 billion per year. (Photo by Mario Tama/Getty Images)
