Special FunjlFor Coastal Needs?

WASHINGTON, D C. - Congressman Bill Hughes (D*NJ) has called for the creation of a special block grant fund, to provide continued funding for important coastal zone management and fisheries pro- - grams which have been cut from the federal budget. Hughes said the proposed fund, which was recently approved by the House Subcommittee on Oceanography, would be financed entirely through revenues which are already collected from outer continental shelf (OCS) oil and gas develop* ment activities, so it would not add a penny to the federal budget. *». ••CUTTING FUNDS, from fisheries programs will not achieve that much in the short-term, but will prevent us from making investments that will reap huge benefits in the end,” Hughes stated. "For every

dollar spent on fisheries program?, the benefits are realzied many times over. "This fund would be an ideal vehicle to support the conservation and careful development of fragile coastal resources,'^ Hughes said. "At the present time, the^overnment collects billions of ddilars each year from OCS activities. These revenues go directly into the general treasury. " "HOWEVER. RECENT budget cutS'*have undermined many coastal zone management apa fisheries programs," he continued. "Accordingly, we are proposing to divert a small fraction of OC$ revenues into those programs which are most directly affected by offshore drilling activities.” Hughes pointed out that the Administration’s accelerated OCS leasing pro--gram is expected to raise

CHIROPRACTIC FOR BETTER HEALTH

The pain of sciatica is so excruciating that sufferers cannot even find relief by confining themselves to bed. Pains in the low back and the backs of the legs results from ulflammation of the large sciatic nerve. This in turn is due to spinal imbalance which causes a patient to lean to one side. Leaning produces only a greater spinal imbalance and more inflammation. The more a patient tries to ignore the

condition, the greater his spinal imbalance and his pain. Correction of the cause of the spinal imbalance can be accomplished through chiropractic.

as much as .$18 billion a year in rexienues by 1984 Under the Subcqmmitfee’s % proposal, about $306 million of these revenues would be diverted to. the states to pay for coastal zone management and* natural resource enhancement pfogrkms.. IN ADDITION, a portion of the funds distributed to the 30 affected coastal states would be earmarked for the enhancement and mahagemtnt of living marine resource^, including aquaculture, marine rhamipal. and fisheries programs. "Money (raised through the"development of oil and gas sources on the continental sh^lf should be used to help offset the impacts associated with OCS development,” Hughe* stated/ ‘‘Moreover, it should be Used to enhance and manage the fishery resources which our nkion will depend upon long after “the continental shelf's energy resources ai;e depleted.'J The South Jersey lawmaker | noted that the Administration recently proposed significant cutbacks in j a number of coastal and fisheries programs. Fishery assistance program*; alone were targeted fior a 33 percent reduction in funding, and many fishery programs, in* • eluding j aquaculture research and development, would be ( terminated entirely under the budget. The federal coastal zone managemient and sea grant programs; have similarly been targeted for elimination. rr Parking For Disabled' RIO GRANDE - County residents) with handicaps are urged by the Office of Aging to lake advantage of the spacti available for the disabled in most parking lots.
