State of California
The California State Lands Commission is responsible for managing and protecting California's public trust lands, overseeing a range of programs related to environmental protection, natural resource management, and coastal hazards. The Commission actively engages in initiatives such as the Geophysical Survey Permit Program, the Marine Invasive Species Program, and the Oil Spill Prevention regulations to safeguard the state's natural resources and public access.
In addition to its regulatory responsibilities, the Commission addresses pressing issues like sea level rise and climate change through strategic planning and collaborative efforts. Recent activities include the decommissioning of legacy oil wells, the removal of abandoned vessels in critical waterways, and the development of response frameworks for invasive species detection, exemplifying their commitment to sustainable management and environmental justice.
