Plain-English Summary

The legislation would strengthen protections for ocean environments and marine life by updating rules for managing coastal areas and reducing ocean pollution from sources like plastic waste and abandoned fishing gear. It would affect fishing companies, shipping industries, coastal communities, and environmental organizations by establishing new standards for how they operate in ocean waters. The bill also aims to improve coordination between federal agencies responsible for protecting marine resources and enforcing environmental laws at sea.
