Which three agencies are involved in managing the coastline in California?

California Department of Fish and Wildlife, California Coastal Commission, Bay Conservation and Development Commission
Department of Water Resources, California Coastal Commission, State Parks and Recreation
California State Lands Commission, Bay Conservation and Development Commission, California Coastal Commission
California Coastal Commission, California Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Public Works

The correct answer is: California State Lands Commission, Bay Conservation and Development Commission, California Coastal Commission

The correct choice highlights the involvement of three key agencies that are significantly engaged in the management of California's coastline. The California Coastal Commission plays a central role in regulating land use and development along the coast to protect coastal resources and public access. The California State Lands Commission is responsible for managing state-owned lands, which includes a portion of the coastal areas. The Bay Conservation and Development Commission focuses specifically on the San Francisco Bay area, addressing land use and environmental protection in the bay region. Each of these agencies has distinct but complementary responsibilities that ensure the ecological health, sustainable development, and public access to California's coastline. Their collaboration is essential for implementing policies and regulations that balance environmental protection with the needs of communities and development interests along the coast.
