program than any other part of the 

 CZM program. I really am very 

 enthusiastic about that. I hope 

 we can invent something that will 

 widen that out so that we don't 

 have to restrict this type of de- 

 signation of Federal assistance 

 to local areas and unit resources. 

 They will not have to restrict 

 research and education to repre- 



sentative areas here and there, 

 since every estuarine community that 

 wants it, ought to be able to have 

 the benefit of technical assistance 

 and the designation and what comes 

 with it in the way of Federal, 

 state, and local cooperation and 

 partnership. I think it is really 

 a dynamite program.
