Completed: 2006-2015.

Funding: Varied.

ASFPM developed a Coastal No Adverse Impact Handbook (funded by NOAA) and materials for one-day Coastal No Adverse Impact workshops. In addition to requests from ASFPM chapters, these workshops have been well received by NOAA's National Estuarine Research Reserves. NERRs have funded five of the workshops and developed a hands-on mapping exercise that has become a core component of the workshops. The CNAI workshops have also provided opportunities to partner with organizations with similar interests. ASFPM worked with the Southeast Watershed Forum to put on the workshop in Apalachicola, FL and The Nature Conservancy participated in the CNAI workshops in Pensacola, FL and Long Island, NY. Since the CNAI handbook was completed in 2006, ASFPM has conducted numerous one-day workshops, including incorporating CNAI content into Post Hurricane Sandy Legal Workshops.
