dependent commercial uses, giving full consideration to environmental
concerns as well as the need for economic development.
   (e) Promote other coastal management improvements determined by
the secretary to be consistent with the state's coastal management
program.


35032.  On or before April 15, 1997, the secretary, in cooperation

each year that funds are appropriated pursuant to this chapter.



35033.  Any financial assistance provided to local governments under
this chapter may not exceed 90 percent of the cost of carrying out
the project. Commencing in the 1997 calendar year and in each
calendar year thereafter, 50 percent of the amount of funds received
by the state pursuant to Section 8(g) of the Outer Continental Shelf
Lands Act (43 U.S.C. Sec. 1337(g)) over the amount of funds so
received in the 1996 calendar year shall be available, on an annual
basis, for appropriation to the secretary for grants to coastal
counties and cities pursuant to this chapter.



35034.  On an annual basis, the secretary shall review and assess
county and city expenditures under this program. Not more than one
hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) of the funds appropriated
annually pursuant to this chapter may be used by the secretary to
