Summary

Ocean and Coastal Development Impact Assistance Block Grant Act - Establishes the Ocean and Coastal Development Impact Assistance Fund in the Treasury. States that five percent of Outer Continental Shelf gas and oil lease revenues shall be used for such Fund. Provides block grants from such Fund to coastal States and territories for: (1) living marine resources; (2) coastal management planning and implementation; (3) energy impact assistance; (4) research, education, and natural resource management; and (5) capital infrastructure. Sets forth an allocation formula based upon oil or gas production, coastal population, shoreline, and bonus revenues. Establishes minimum and maximum grant amounts, with excess funds to be shared among those States eligible for additional amounts. Requires a State to give at least 40 percent of its grant money to local coastal communities. Directs the Secretary to establish by contract a National Coastal Resources Research and Development Institute to be administered in affiliation with the Oregon Institute of Marine Science. Provides monies for the Institute from the Ocean and Coastal Development Impact Assistance Fund. Requires: (1) the Secretary to conduct an ongoing evaluation of the Institute's activities; and (2) the Institute to report to the Secretary within two years, including recommendations for specified regional centers.
