"Currently, federal OCS oil and gas lease sales are proposed for tracts located along the North Central California coastal area during 1981 (Sale 53) and along Southern California coast during 1982 (Sale 68). Two other sales, numbers 73 and 80, are scheduled for the California OCS coastal area during 1983 and 1984 ... Based on input from the public, potential effects on aesthetic resources and coastal recreation were identified as items for consideration in the management decision-making process on California OCS lease sales 53, 68, 73, and 80, as part of the lease sales. This inventory and evaluation of recreational and aesthetic resources along the California coastline from the Mexican border to the Oregon border is one of the environmental studies that will support the decision process of these OCS sales"--Page I-1.

Use of coastal, estuarine and freshwater recreational environments has significant benefits for health and well-being, including rest, relaxation, exercise, cultural and religious practices, and aesthetic pleasure, while also providing substantial local, regional and national economic benefits. These guidelines focus on water quality management for coastal and freshwater environments to protect public health. The guidelines: 1. describe the current state of knowledge about the possible adverse health impacts of various forms of water pollution; and2. set out recommendations for setting national health-based targets, conducting surveillance and risk assessments, putting in place systems to monitor and control risks, and providing timely advice to users on water safety.These guidelines are aimed at national and local authorities, and other entities with an obligation to exercise due diligence relating to the safety of recreational water sites. They may be implemented in conjunction with other measures for water safety (such as drowning prevention and sun exposure) and measures for environmental protection of recreational water use sites.
