waterfront disputes
Waterfront disputes are conflicts over the rights to use, manage, or develop land adjacent to a body of water, such as a river, lake, or ocean. These disagreements often involve governments, private companies, and communities, revolving around issues like property boundaries, environmental protection, economic development, and access rights. Such disputes can impact navigation, fishing, tourism, and conservation efforts. Resolving them requires balancing diverse interests, legal frameworks, and competing priorities to ensure sustainable and equitable use of waterfront resources.
