Rep. Chellie Pingree of Maine’s 1st District submitted HR 3596 to help address some of the problems facing Maine, and our nation’s fishermen.
HR 3596 Amends the Coastal Zone Management Act to establish a working waterfront task force, a working waterfront grants program, and a working waterfront loan program to preserve and protect coastal access for water-dependent commercial activities.
As defined in the act, working waterfronts are waterfront property, infrastructure, and waterways that provide access to coastal waters for people in commercial and recreational fishing businesses, boat building, aquaculture, or other water-dependent activities. Working waterfronts are essential for fishing, shipping, and coastal tourism industries.
