National Coastal Resource Management Act

The National Coastal Resource Management Act is legislation that aims to protect and sustainably manage coastal areas, including beaches, wetlands, and other marine environments. It sets guidelines for responsible use, conservation, and development to prevent environmental degradation, preserve biodiversity, and ensure that coastal resources benefit communities now and in the future. The Act involves government agencies, local communities, and stakeholders working together to balance environmental health with economic growth, tourism, and other activities along the coast. Its goal is to maintain healthy, resilient coastlines for both people and ecosystems.
