The Coastal Conservation Association is a non-profit marine conservation organization. It is comprised of 17 coastal state chapters spanning the Gulf of Mexico, the Atlantic seaboard and the Pacific Northwest. CCA’s strength is drawn from the thousands of recreational saltwater anglers who make up its membership. From the Mexico border to the upper-reaches of Maine, CCA’s grassroots influence is felt through state capitols, U.S. Congress and most importantly, in the conservation and restoration of our coastal marine resources.
The Coastal Conservation Association objective is to conserve, promote and enhance the availability of coastal resources for the benefit and enjoyment of the general public. Payne Auto Group is proud to be a part of this passionate driven organization with a mission for our marine wildlife conservation.
This years Rio Grande Valley Costal Conservations Association is proud to award Lee Roy Veland Conservationist of the year for 2023.
