Planning for vulnerability: the hazards and setbacks in coastal legislation [1]

This report by Dakshin Foundation deals with the hazards and setbacks in coastal legislation. Laws pertaining to specific ecosystems and their use made an appearance over the last three decades and the law pertaining to coastal spaces – the Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) Notification, 1991 specifically decides what people can and cannot do on the coastal stretches of the country. This mainly includes where people can live, where establishments can be set up and the nature of activities permissible on the coast.
