Description: Since 1993, the Alabama Coastal Foundation (ACF) has worked to create a healthy balance between the conservation needs of our priceless coastal resources and the inevitable pressures of economic growth. We accomplish this by bringing together stakeholders with differing interests to facilitate mutually beneficial solutions. We provide fair and factual information to encourage responsible citizen action and we offer opportunities for individuals to play a vital role in preserving the environment and our coastal way of life. Our mission is to improve and protect the quality of Alabama's coastal resources by identifying and solving problems through education, cooperation and participation. How We Work - We use an education-based approach to conservation: to find the solution, you must understand the problem. We pursue practical solutions to conversation challenges in a non-adversarial manner. We are dedicated to partnering with businesses, local government and other non-profits to maximize resources results.

Description: A comprehensive program of environmental management for the state was established in 1982 with the passage by the Alabama Legislature of the Alabama Environmental Management Act. The law created the Alabama Environmental Management Commission and established the Alabama Department of Environmental Management, which absorbed several commissions, agencies, programs and staffs that had been responsible for implementing environmental laws. ADEM administers all major federal environmental laws, including the Clean Air, Clean Water and Safe Drinking Water acts and federal solid and hazardous waste laws. ADEM assumed these responsibilities only after demonstration that state laws and regulations are at least equivalent to federal standards and that the state has matching funds and personnel available to administer the programs.
