collection.
    A number of paperwork submissions are required by the Coastal Zone

and by NOAA to provide a reasonable, efficient and predictable means of 
complying with CZMA requirements. The requirements are detailed in 15 
CFR part 930. The information will be used by coastal states with 
federally- approved Coastal Zone Management Programs to determine if 
Federal agency activities, Federal license or permit activities, and 
Federal assistance activities that affect a state's coastal zone are 
consistent with the states' programs. Information will also be used by 
NOAA and the Secretary of Commerce for appeals to the Secretary by non-
federal applicants regarding State CZMA objections to federal license 
or permit activities.
