Chevron (formerly Unocal) became involved with the Coastal Resources Management Plan project in Indonesia-- a collaborative effort among a growing number of community associations, nongovernmental organizations, companies, and government agencies (global and local) to develop a plan for managing the important coastal resources of Balikpapan and surrounding communities along the East Kalimantan coast.
The planning effort seeks to build capacity within communities to use precious coastal resources in sustainable ways as they pursue economic development opportunities that will ensure that resources will also remain for future generations. Unocal Indonesia employees are active in this effort.
