Georgia Coastal Management Program Updated:07/2023

It is the mission of the Georgia Coastal Management Program (GCMP) to balance economic development in Georgia's coastal zone with preservation of natural, environmental, historic, archeological, and recreational resources for the benefit of Georgia's present and future generations.  The GCMP offers technical assistance to local governments, property owners, developers, and the public to provide expertise on coastal issues, minimize environmental impacts, clarify regulatory requirements, and identify agency contacts.  GCMP provides information on Best Management Practices and technical guidance on planning and design as well as information on habitat and endangered species.  GCMP serves as a liaison among various agencies and institutions and maintains a list of contacts.  GCMP provides forums for local governments, developers, and citizens to discuss potential resource issues and permit requirements with the appropriate agencies.  The goals of GCMP Coastal Specialists are to promote sustainable development, to work with local governments to address natural resource issues, and to create a central source of information on coastal management issues.
