Section 307 of the Coastal Zone Management Act authorizes states to review federal actions that may have reasonably foreseeable effects on coastal uses and resources of the state's coastal zone for consistency with the enforceable policies of the state coastal management program. This authority provides states with a role in federal decision making processes and ensures that state enforceable policies pertaining to effects to uses and resources of the state coastal zone are considered by federal agencies. The federal rules governing state reviews can be found at 15 C.F.R. Part 930 and are controlling for the processes and standards for state reviews. The categories of activities subject to review and notification procedures for each are listed in Chapters 14 through 17 below.
