COSTAL REGULATION ZONE ‪@Edinfoguru‬
- The coastal stretches of sea, bays, estuaries, creeks, rivers and backwaters which are influenced by tidal action up to 500m from the High Tide Line (HTL) and the land between the Low Tide line (LTL) is declared as Costal Regulation Zone (CRZ) on 1991.
- In 1991, the Government of India issued a notification under the Environment Protection Act 1986 administered by the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF) to protect and conserve the environment and ecosystem on the coastline of the country.
COASTAL REGULATION ZONE: CLASSIFICATION 1991
CRZ-I: CRZ 1 constitutes ecologically-sensitive areas, such as mangroves, corals/coral reefs, sand dunes, national parks, marine parks, sanctuaries, reserve forests, wildlife habitats, etc. The coastal regulation zone areas in CRZ 1 are situated between high tide lines and low tide lines.
CRZ-II: It constitutes the developed areas up to the shoreline, which fall within the existing municipal limits. The development of unauthorized structures is not allowed in this zone.
CRZ-III: Localities, such as rural areas that are relatively undisturbed and do not fall under the above categories, are included in this zone. Only specific activities related to agriculture or certain public facilities are permitted under this coastal regulation zone.
CRZ-IV: The zone constitutes water areas from the low tide line up to territorial limits, including areas of the tidal-influenced water bodies.
