SECTION 30200

30200. (a) Consistent with the coastal zone values cited in Section
30001 and the basic goals set forth in Section 30001.5, and except
as may be otherwise specifically provided in this division, the
policies of this chapter shall constitute the standards by which the
adequacy of local coastal programs, as provided in Chapter 6
(commencing with Section 30500), and the permissibility of proposed
developments subject to the provisions of this division are
determined. All public agencies carrying out or supporting activities
outside the coastal zone that could have a direct impact on
resources within the coastal zone shall consider the effect of such
actions on coastal zone resources in order to assure that these
policies are achieved.
(b) Where the commission or any local government in implementing
the provisions of this division identifies a conflict between the
policies of this chapter, Section 30007.5 shall be utilized to
resolve the conflict and the resolution of such conflicts shall be
supported by appropriate findings setting forth the basis for the
resolution of identified policy conflicts.
