Chronic Under Funding of the BEACH Act by Congress

"Unfortunately, perennial under-funding has prevented full state implementation of the BEACH Act and has left public health at risk in many instances. Because of inadequate funding, many state programs are under-staffed and do not have the resources to meet all of their testing requirements." - excerpt from U.S. Senate committee testimony given by Mara Dias of the Surfrider Foundation.
