resources that, because of indiscriminate dredging or filling,
improper location of improvements, natural or human-induced events,
or incompatible land uses, have suffered loss of natural and scenic
values. Grants under this chapter shall be utilized for the assembly
of parcels of land within coastal resource enhancement areas to
improve resource management, for relocation of improperly located or
designed improvements, and for other corrective measures that will
enhance the natural and scenic character of the areas. As provided in
this chapter, the cost of acquisition of certain lands within
coastal resource enhancement areas may be funded through the
conservancy. Grants under this section may not be utilized as a
method of acquisition of public park, wildlife, or natural areas,

relative to other eligible coastal resource enhancement projects, and
the application of other factors prescribed by the conservancy for
the purpose of determining project eligibility and priority in order
to more effectively carry out the provisions of this division.
31254. The conservancy shall request the commission, local public
agencies, nonprofit organizations, and other public and private

review and comment has been provided, the conservancy shall adopt
guidelines and criteria for the administration of the coastal program
authorized under this chapter.

enhancement plan, the conservancy shall forward the plan to the
commission for determination of conformity of the plan with the
policies and objectives of Division 20 (commencing with Section

transmit the findings on the plan to the conservancy. If no comments
are received within the period, the restoration plan shall be deemed
to be in accord with Division 20 (commencing with Section 30000).
(b) (1) Following the certification of a local coastal program,
the city, county, or city and county with jurisdiction over the
certified area, rather than the commission, shall review the coastal

period, the plan shall be deemed to be in accord with the provisions
of the certified local coastal program.
(c) If the enhancement plan will be implemented in whole or in
part in an area in which the commission retains coastal development
permit jurisdiction pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 30519, in
which two or more local governments have jurisdiction, or where a
local coastal program amendment is required to implement the plan,
the commission shall be responsible for enhancement plan review and
shall conduct the review in the following manner. The commission
shall review the enhancement plan for consistency with the policies
and objectives of Division 20 (commencing with Section 30000), as
provided in subdivision (a), for the area subject to retained coastal
development permit jurisdiction pursuant to subdivision (b) of

after completion of a resource enhancement project as provided in
this chapter shall be transmitted to the state and be deposited with
the conservancy and shall be available for expenditure when
appropriated by the Legislature for the purposes of funding the
programs specified in this division.
31263. If a local public agency or state agency is unable or
unwilling to undertake improvement of a deteriorating area, the
conservancy may undertake the coastal resource enhancement or
authorize a nonprofit organization to do so after notification to the
local public agency, if a coastal resource enhancement plan for the
area has been prepared by the conservancy and approved as provided in
Section 31258.
31263.5. In the case of San Francisco Bay, the conservancy may
undertake resource enhancement of an area only upon formal request by

enhancement project. If, during that period that local public agency,
a nonprofit organization, or the state agency agrees to carry out
