California Coastal Zone Conservation Commission and California Coastal Commission Records 1969-1986

http://www.oac.cdlib.org/ark:/13030/kt0f59q6fh

In November 1972, the People of California approved Proposition 20, the Coastal Zone Conservation Act, which created the California Coastal Zone Conservation Commission (CCZCC). The CCZCC was mandated with the responsibility for the preservation and protection of California's environmentally and ecologically diverse coastal resources within the coastal zone. The successor agency to the CCZCC was the California Coastal Commission (CCC). The records of the CCZCC and the CCC reflect the work of the executive director, various divisions, and two regional commissions. Files contain primarily correspondence, minutes, reports, and news articles. Strengths of the collection include records associated with offshore oil drilling in the Outer Continental Shelf, budget related issues, the Sea Ranch development project, and the Local Coastal Program.
