Coastal Nonpoint Pollution Control Program: Approval Decision on 
Guan Coastal Nonpoint Pollution Control Program

AGENCY: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, U.S. 
Department of Commerce, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

ACTION: Notice of Intent to Approve the Guam Coastal Nonpoint Program.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given of the intent to fully approve the Guam 
Coastal Nonpoint Pollution Control Program (coastal nonpoint program) 
and of the availability of the draft Approval Decisions on conditions 
for the Guam coastal nonpoint program. Section 6217 of the Coastal Zone 
Act Reauthorization Amendments (CZARA), 16 U.S.C. section 1455b, 
requires States and Territories with coastal zone management programs 
that have received approval under section 306 of the Coastal Zone 
Management Act to develop and implement coastal nonpoint programs. 
Coastal States and Territories were required to submit their coastal 
nonpoint programs to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric 
Administration (NOAA) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 
(EPA) for approval in July 1995. NOAA and EPA conditionally approved 
the Guan coastal nonpoint program on October 3, 1997. NOAA and EPA have 
drafted approval decisions describing how Guam has satisfied the 
conditions placed on its program and therefore has a fully approved 
coastal nonpoint program.
    NOAA and EPA are making the draft decisions for the Guam coastal 
nonpoint program available for a 30-day public comment period. If 
comments are received, NOAA and EPA will consider whether such comments 
are significant enough to affect the decision to fully approve the 
program.
    Copies of the draft Approval Decisions can be found on the NOAA Web 
site at http://coastalmanagement.noaa.gov/czm/6217/findings.html or be 
obtained upon request from: Allison Castellan, Coastal Programs
