Clean Beach Initiative Projects

The Clean Beach Initiative (CBI) Grant Program provided funding for projects aimed at imporving California’s coastal water quality and swimmers’ safety. The CBI Grant Program has provided about $100 million from voter-approved bonds for approximately 100 projects since it was started under the 2001 Budget Act. Typical projects include the construction of disinfecting facilities, diversions that prevent polluted storm water from reaching the beach, and scientific research that will enable early notification of unhealthy swimming conditions. Coastal projects have been plotted at the approximate centroid of the project extent. Projects of a statewide scope have been clustered near California. Please note that this data was selected from a larger dataset available from the State Water Resources Control Board for use in the San Diego Ocean Planning Partnership, a collaborative pilot project between the California State Lands Commission and the Port of San Diego.
