One of the primary incentives to state governments to participate in the national coastal zone management program is the legal requirement that federal resource activities must be consistent with federally-approved state coastal programs. The 'consistency provisions' are among the most innovative attempts to ensure intergovernmental coordination. This legal requirement has led to the development of a variety of formal and informal collaborative mechanisms for intergovernmental coordination in ocean and coastal management. While these mechanisms have led to the resolution of the vast majority of federal-state conflicts in coastal areas, some important federal-state conflicts have not been resolved. (Abstract amended)
