"coastal energy facility impact program 



"Sec. 308. (a) The Secretary is authorized to make a grant to a 

 coastal State, if he determines that such State's coastal zone has been, 

 or is likely to be, impacted by the exploration for, or the development 

 or production of, energy resources or by the location, construction, 

 expansion, or operation of an energy facility. Such a grant shall be 

 for the purpose of enabling such coastal State to study and plan for 

 the economic, environmental, and social consequences which are likely 

 to result in such coastal zone from exploration for and development 

 or production of such energy resources or from the location, construc- 

 tion, expansion, or operation of such an energy facility. The amount of 

 such a grant may equal up to 100 percent of the cost of such study and 

 plan, to the extent of available funds.

 a coastal State, if he determines, pursuant to subsection (d) and (e) 

 of this section, that such State's coastal zone has been or is likely to be 

 adversely impacted by exploration for or by development or produc-

 or operation of an energy facility, if such adverse impact will result as 

 a consequence of a license, lease, easement, or permit issued or granted 

 by the Federal Government which permits — 



"(1) the exploration for, or the drilling, mining, removal, or 

 extraction of, energy resources; 



"(2) the siting, location, construction, expansion, or operation 

 of energy facilities by a lessee, licensee, or permittee; or 



"(3) the siting, location, construction, expansion, or operation 

 of energy facilities by or for the United States Government. 

 The proceeds of such a loan or grant shall be used for — 



"(A) projects which are designed to reduce, ameliorate, or 

 compensate for the net adverse impacts; and/or 



"(B) projects which are designed to provide new or additional 

 public facilities and public services which are made necessary, 

 directly or indirectly, by the location, construction, expansion, or 

 operation of such an energy facility or energy resource explora- 

 tion, development or production. 



The amount of such a loan or grant may equal up to 100 percent of 

 the cost of such a project, to the extent of available funds. 



"(c) (1) The Secretary may make a grant to a coastal State for a 

 purpose specified in subsection (b) of this section, if he determines 

 that such State will suffer net adverse impacts in its coastal zone, 

 as a result of exploration ^or, or development and production of, 

 energy resources; as a result of the location, construction, expansion, 

 or operation of an energy facility over the course of the projected or 

 anticipated useful life of such energy facility ; or as a result of explora- 

 tion, development, or production activity. 



"(2) The Secretary may make a loan to a coastal State for a pur- 

 pose specified in subsection (b) of this section, if the Secretary deter- 

 mines that such State will experience temporary adverse impacts as
