National Oceans and Coastal Security Improvements Act of 2024

This bill establishes a National Oceans and Coastal Security Fund with $200 million annually from 2025-2029 to support coastal protection and restoration projects. It allocates funds to coastal states, coastal Indian Tribes, and Native Hawaiian organizations through specific formulas based on shoreline miles, population, and other factors. Eligible uses include protecting infrastructure from climate impacts, restoring ecosystems that capture "blue carbon" (carbon stored in coastal ecosystems), and supporting community resilience planning. The bill prohibits using funds for litigation or lobbying and requires annual reporting on funded projects and blue carbon benefits.
