The California Coastal Act of 1976 establishes the California Coastal Commission and prescribes the membership, and functions, and duties of the commission with regard to the regulation and protection of coastal resources. The act specifies that after a port master plan for the port of Hueneme, Long Beach, Los Angeles, or San Diego Unified Port District located within the coastal zone, as provided, is certified by the commission, the permit authority of the commission is thereafter delegated to the appropriate port governing body, except as specified. Existing law requires certain cities and counties to incorporate the master plan in its local coastal program. This bill would additionally apply this port master plan provision to the Port of Newport Beach located within the coastal zone, except as provided. By imposing duties on local officials, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.
