# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

## I. Abstract

The Coastal Impact Assistance Program (CIAP) recognizes that impacts from Outer Continental Shelf oil and gas activities fall disproportionately on coastal states and localities nearest to where the activities occur.  The program provides funds to seven states and 147 local governments to conduct a variety of related projects, including construction and land acquisition.  NOAA must review the projects in accordance with the CIAP legislation before disbursing funds.  To expedite review, NOAA developed the CIAP Project Checklist for the construction and land acquisition projects.  The Checklist, whose use is voluntary, requests applicants to provide project information to allow NOAA to determine their eligibility under the CIAP as well as eligibility under other relevant statutes (NEPA, etc.).
