Abstract
 
 
Balasore
 
is
 
famous
 
for
 
its
 
long
 
sea
 
beach
 
and
 
pleasant
 
natural
 
beauty.
 
This
 
district
 
is
 
noted
 
for
 
the
 
river
 
Subarnarekha,
 
Buhdabalanga
 
and
 
also
 
the
 
extended
 
calm
 
sea
 
beach.
 
It
 
is
 
also
 
bestowed
 
with
 
the
 
Chandipur,
 
Talsari
 
and
 
Bichitrapur
 
sea
 
Beach.
 
Balasore
 
is
 
appreciated
 
for
 
its
 
salt,
 
Brass
 
utensils,
 
stone
 
and
 
clay
 
works.

of
 
tourist
 
interest.
 
The
 
sustainable
 
development
 
as
 
a
 
strategic
 
tool
 
requires
 
a
 
process
 
of
 
planning
 
and
 
management
 
that
 
brings
 
together
 
a
 
series
 
of
 
interests
 
and
 
indigenous
 
people’s
 
concerns
 
in
 
the
 
form
 
of
 
planning
 
and
 
development.
 
The
 
objective
 
of
 
this
 
present
 
research
 
is
 
to
 
study
 
the
 
indigenous
 
people’s
 
attitude
 
in
 
Coastal

Introduction
 
Our
 
country
 
has
 
a
 
long
 
coastline
 
of
 
about
 
7500
 
km
 
including
 
that
 
of
 
its
 
island
 
territories.
 
The
 
coastal
 
zone
 
of
 
India
 
is
 
under
 
increasing
 
pressure
 
due
 
to
 
rapid
 
urbanization,
 
tourism
 
development,
 
discharge
 
of
 
waste
 
effluents,
 
municipal
 
sewage,
 
over
 
exploitation
 
of
 
coastal
 
resources
 
and
 
continued
 
development
 
in
 
hazard
 
prone
 
areas.
 
There
 
are
 
many
 
studies
 
on
 
coastal
 
tourism
 
emphasize
 
on
 
the
 
tourism
 
system
 
rather
 
than
 
on
 
the
 
interaction
 
of
 
the
 
tourism
 
and
 
related
 
environmental
 
systems
1
.
 
Low
-
lying
 
delta,
 
low
-
elevation
 
reef
 
islands
 
and
 
coral
 
atolls
 
are
 
especially
 
sensitive
 
to
 
sea
 
level
 
rise,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
to
 
changes
 
in
 
rainfall,
 
storm
 
frequency
 
and
 
intensity
2
.
 
One
 
of
 
the
 
impact
 
of
 
coastal
 
tourism
 
are
 
damage
 
to
 
coastal
 
ecosystems
 
such
 
as
 
beaches
 
and
 
wet
 
lands,
 
deforestation
 
and
 
erosion,
 
excess
 
use
 
and
 
increased
 
pressure
 
on
 
limited
 
energy
 
and
 
freshwater
 
resources,
 
ecological
 
disruption
 
and
 
degradation
 
of
 
biological
 
diversity,
 
pollution
 
and
 
waste
 
generation,
 
resource
 
use
 
conflict
 
and
 
threats
 
to
 
local
 
people
 
for
 
their
 
culture
 
and
 
traditions
3
.
 
Concentrated
 
tourism
 
development
 
can
 
also
 
affect
 
natural
 
landscapes
 
through
 
process
 
such
 
as
 
deforestation,
 
loss
 
of
 
wetland
 
and
 
soil
 
erosion
4
.
 
This
 
is
 
a
 
major
 
issue
 
in
 
coastal
 
areas
 
where
 
large
 
scale
 
development
 
occurs
 
in
 
clusters
5
.
 
Different
 
studies
 
also
 
emphasis
 
on
 
coastal
 
hazards
6
 
and
 
their
 
cause
 
and
 
effect
 
on
 
tourism
 
like
 
coastal
 
erosion
7
,
 
storm
 
and
 
associated
 
storm
 
surges
8
,
 
coastal
 
flooding
6
,
 
sea
 
level
 
rise.
 
Biodiversity
 
loss
 
due
 
to
 
urbanization
 
in
 
coastal
 
areas
 
also
 
negatively
 
affects
 
the
 
tourism.
 
Coastal
 
area
 
of
 
Odisha
 
is
 
characterized
 
by
 
sand
 
dunes,
 
long
 
shore
 
currents,
 
high
 
salinity,
 
low
 
turbidity
 
and
 
low
 
vegetative
 
coverage
9
.
 
 
Sustainability
 
requires
 
attention
 
to
 
the
 
domains
 
that
 
support
 
or
 
influence
 
human
 
health
 
and
 
well
-
being
-
 
economic,
 
social
 
and
 
environmental
 
up
 
gradation.
 
Due
 
to
 
heavy
 
growth
 
in
 
the
 
recent
 
decades,
 
those
 
who
 
manage
 
tourism
 
are
 
aware
 
that
 
it
 
is
 
sustainability
 
in
 
coastal
 
areas
 
that
 
is
 
strongly
 
dependent
 
upon
 
the
 
quality
 
of
 
these
 
particularly
 
fragile
 
environments
10
.
 
Social
 
sustainability
 
should
 
be
 
ensured
 
by
 
including
 
community
 
stakeholders
 
while
 
planning
 
and
 
managing
 
tourism
11
.
 
Environmental
 
sustainability
 
should
 
be
 
ensured
 
by
 
respecting
 
the
 
carrying
 
capacity
 
of
 
ecosystem
 
and
 
reducing
 
all
 
type
 
of
 
the
 
pollution
12
.
 
Economic
 
sustainability
 
should
 
be
 
achieved
 
with
 
high
 
quality
 
of
 
tourist
 
product
12
.
 
UNWTO,
 
1994
 
suggested
 
plan
 
for
 
sustainable
 
tourism
 
development
 
by
 
environmental
 
planning,
 
community
 
based
 
tourism,
 
quality
 
tourism,
 
long
 
range
 
comprehensive
 
planning
 
and
 
strategic
 
planning.
 
The
 
planning
 
of
 
coastal
 
areas
 
for
 
sustainable
 
development
 
urgently
 
needs
 
to
 
take
 
into
 
account
 
all
 
potential
 
risks,
 
e.g,
 
floods,
 
forest
 
fires,
 
loss
 
of
 
biodiversity,
 
coastal
 
erosion
13
.
 
The
 
environmental
 
impact
 
assessment
 
approach
 
is
 
essential
 
to
 
effective
 
sustainable
 
coastal
 
management
14
.
 
There
 
is
 
a
 
need
 
for
 
research
 
on
 
how
 
societal
 
driving
 
forces
 
(social
 
and
 
demographic,
 
political
 
and

affect
 
the
 
nature
 
and
 
distribution
 
of
 
human

by
 
different
 
stakeholders
 
like

For

a
 
growing

for
 
success,
 
the

are
 
necessary
 
as
 
ways
 
of

16

As
 
tourism
 
is
 
an

phenomenon,
 
it
 
stands
 
to

In

due
 
to
 
coastal

development,
 
both

can
 
play
 
an

i.e.

Many

researchers
 
have
 
suggested
 
integrated
 
coastal
 
zone
 
management
 
and
 
application
 
of
 
different

etc.
 
as
 
policy
 
guideline
 
and

of
 
sustainable
 
coastal
 
tourism.
 
As
 
per
 
the
 
result
 
of

it
 
was
 
noticed
 
a
 
huge
 
infrastructural

ecological Settings of Studied Coast:
 
A widespread 
coastal region is on the farthest east of the state. A part of the 
district of 
Balasore 
along the Bay of Bengal includes the coastal 
plain. This rising coastal plain is made up of sand and
 
mud 
sedimented by fluvial and aeolian process which is also an 
extreme western division of Kanthi Coastal Plain, covers an area 
of about 142519.76 hector stretching between

Colonies 
of sand dunes and marshy areas are in parallel way to the 
shoreline.
 
The dune of this vicinity lies adjacent and parallel to 
the Bay of Bengal. In some regions dunes arises are at a 
distance of 5
–
6 km from t
he coast and 11
–
12 m high. The state 
has a shoreline of 510 km. Balasore coastal tract is characterized 
by sand dunes, long shore currents, major river emancipations, 
less turbid but high saline sea water influence, cuspate delta of 
the Subarnarekha river 
and neo
-
tectonic depressions in the 
north. Bichitrapur Mangroves in Balasore district has a 
complicated coastline, bunches of early growing deltas with 
interlinked tidal creeks, and estuary. Deltaic expanses are 
generally clayey due to high deposit of sedi
ments through the 
Subarnarekha system. A clayey bedspread covering gravels of 
sandstone, siltstone and quartz designate quaternary era of the 
area. Consequently, Odisha does not acquire the fertile alluvium 
as before and the topography is not de
-
salinated 
by river floods. 
The wide beaches and intensive network of inlets and creeks, 
mangrove swamps, mudflats, frequent coastal dunes and sand 
flats are the major characteristics of this coastal region.

In
 
recent
 
times
 
the
 
SWOT
 
analysis
 
has
 
achieved
 
wider
 
fields
 
of
 
application
 
and
 
it
 
is
 
usually
 
used
 
to
 
recognize
 
features
 
and
 
to
 
resolve

of
 
the

The
 
perception
 
of
 
the
 
Rapid
 
Impact
 
Assessment
 
Matrix
 
(RIAM)
 
to
 
appraise
 
the
 
human
 
cause
 
and
 
development
 
to
 
hurriedly
 
changing
 
coastal
 
environment
 
is
 
a
 
promising
 
assessment
 
tool
 
to
 
study
 
the
 
status
 
of
 
Balasore
 
coast
 
and
 
its
 
vulnerability.
 
RIAM
 
is
 
developed
 
by
 
DHI
 
Water,
 
Environment
 
and 
Health
 
to
 
support
 
in
 
the
 
preparation
 
of

(EIA).
  
RIAM
 
permits
 
full
 
precision
 
of
 
the
 
decisions
 
made
 
in
 
an

25
.
 
The
 
RIAM
 
system
 
is
 
based
 
on
 
straightforward
 
perceptions
 
and
 
has
 
been
 
experienced
 
in
 
a
 
number
 
of
 
diverse
 
conditions.
 
It
 
is
 
a
 
very
 
influential
 
tool
 
in
 
connection
 
with
 
EIA’s
 
and
 
was
 
hardened
 
on
 
various

studies
26
 
where
 
a
 
multi
disciplinary
 
squad
 
approach
 
is
 
used
27
.
 
It
 
receives

data
 
from
 
different
 
environmental,
 
social

thus
 
providing
 
a
 
hurried,

estimation
 
of

It
 
represents
 
the
 
scoring
 
within
 
a
 
matrix
 
that
 
has
 
been
 
intended
 
to

to

quantitatively
 
recorded
 
for
 
appraisal
 
of
 
coastal
 
environmental
 
changes
 
of
 
Balasore
 
coast,
 
Odisha
 
in
 
relation
 
to
 
a
 
variety
 
of
 
developmental
 
projects
 
regarding
 
the
 
customary
 
coastal
 
resource
 
uses
 
along
 
the
 
coast.
 
Coastal
 
Landscape
,
 
Geomorphologic
 
and
 
coastline
 
change
 
may
 
be
 
understood
 
through
 
a
 
comparative
 
analysis
 
of
 
the
 
spatial
 
and
 
temporal
 
changes
 
took
 
place
 
in
 
the
 
coast
 
of
 
Balasore
 
through
 
a
 
long
 
duration
 
of
 
time
 
through
 
taking
 
out
 
information
 
from
 
remotely
 
sensed
 
data
 
and
 
combination
 
of
 
GIS.
 
 
Premises
 
of
 
the
 
Study
: 
The
 
above
 
mentioned
 
techniques,
 
tools
 
and
 
methods
 
are
 
projected
 
for
 
the
 
study
 
on
 
the
 
basis
 
of
 
the
 
following
 
hypotheses:
 
i. 
Anthropogenic
 
uses
 
of
 
coastal
 
resources
 
in
 
the
 
coastal
 
stretches
 
are
 
the
 
most
 
important
 
criteria
 
that
 
are
 
causing
 
coastal
 
alteration
 
of
 
geomorphology
 
or
 
coastline
 
apart
 
from
 
the
 
natural
 
process.
 
ii. 
Least
 
managed,
 
unscientific
 
and
 
non
technical
 
use
 
of
 
coastal
 
resources
 
will
 
remain
 
growing
 
in
 
the
 
next
 
decade
 
if
 
it’s
 
not
 
switched
 
correctly
 
with
 
sufficient
 
scientific
 
research
 
based
 
information.
 
This
 
puts
 
in
 
more
 
pressure
 
on
 
Balasore’s
 
coastal
 
area
 
in
 
general
 
and
 
aquatic
 
resources
 
in
 
particular.
 
iii. 
If
 
such
 
kind
 
of
 
trend
 
of
 
development
 
is
 
going
 
on
 
in
 
the
 
coastal
 
region,
 
it
 
is
 
estimated
 
in
 
the
 
near
 
future
 
there
 
will
 
not
 
be
 
any
 
coastal
 
region
 
left
 
untouched
 
in
 
Balasore.
 
iv. 
The
 
techniques
 
which
 
are
 
mentioned
 
above
 
can
 
emphasize
 
the
 
problem,
 
cause
 
and
 
clarification
 
in
 
a
 
more
 
persuasive
 
approach
 
in
 
provisos
 
of
 
more
 
reliable
 
scientific
 
information.
 
 
 
Result
 
and
 
Discussion
 
Tourism
 
Interfaces
 
in
 
Balasore
 
Coast
: 
It
 
is
 
clear
 
that
 
the
 
“Tourism
 
Sector”
 
builds
 
up
 
much
 
more
 
job
 
opportunities
 
in
 
comparison
 
with
 
any
 
other
 
sector
 
in
 
terms
 
of
 
per
 
million
 
rupees
 
investment.
 
The
 
district
 
Balasore
 
is
 
no
 
exception.
 
Because
 
of
 
sea
 
side
 
location
 
and
 
cultural
 
heritage,
 
there
 
is
 
a
 
vast
 
scope
 
for
 
the
 
expansion
 
of
 
tourism
 
in
 
this
 
district
 
and
 
to
 
obtain
 
this,
 
the
 
state
 
government
 
and
 
the
 
local
 
administration
 
have
 
to
 
set
 
up
 
mission
 
and
 
vision.
 
The
 
private
 
agencies
 
should
 
be
 
used
 
as
 
a
 
part
 
of
 
this
 
mission
 
and
 
vision.
 
The
 
district
 
Balasore
 
is
 
a
 
miniature
 
form
 
of
 
the
 
state
 
Odisha
 
in
 
terms
 
of
 
culture,
 
tourism,
 
literature,
 
architecture,
 
heritage,
 
natural
 
wonders
 
and
 
religious
 
momentum.
 
So
 
its
 
popularity
 
crosses
 
the
 
limits
 
of
 
the
 
nation.
 
From
 
time
 
immemorial
 
the
 
faunal
 
and
 
floral
 
community,
 
it’s
 
history,
 
geographical
 
location
 
and
 
culture
 
has
 
invited
 
the
 
people
 
of
 
nation
 
and
 
from
 
the
 
outside
 
of
 
its
 
boundaries.
 
The
 
district
 
Balasore
 
is
 
called
 
“The
 
Germany
 
of
 
Odisha”
 
due
 
to
 
the
 
sea
 
facing
 
situation
 
in
 
the
 
north,
 
the
 
river
 
network,
 
blue
 
hills
 
and
 
extensive
 
meadow
 
and
 
for
 
extraordinary
 
beautiful
 
beach.
 
The
 
name
 
of
 
the
 
district
 
‘Balasore’
 
is
 
chosen
 
after
 
the
 
name
 
of
 
“Lord
 
Baleswar”.
 
Its
 
archaeological
 
structure
 
is
 
excellent.
 
Its
 
temple,
 
wild
 
life,
 
ruined
 
monuments;
 
quaint
 
little
 
hilly
 
picnic
 
spot
 
helped
 
her
 
to
 
be
 
an
 
ideal
 
tourist
 
spot.
 
 
In the whole district of Balasore there a
re 19 major tourist spots

Chandipur
: 
The
 
beach
 
of
 
Chandipur
 
is
 
very
 
wide,
 
golden
 
and
 
calm.
 
The
 
sea
 
water
 
advances
 
towards
 
the
 
shore
 
as
 
much
 
5
 
km
 
at
 
the
 
time
 
of
 
high
 
tide
 
and
 
retreat
 
the
 
same
 
during
 
low
 
ebb.
 
In
 
addition
 
to
 
this
 
the
 
huge
 
sand
 
banks,
 
wild
 
creepers,
 
the
 
rusting
 
of
 
the
 
branches
 
of
 
casuarinas
 
trees
 
along
 
with
 
the
 
rhythmic
 
dance
 
of
 
both
 
ebbs
 
are
 
enough
 
to
 
create
 
obsession
 
among
 
the
 
tourists.
 
 
Langaleswar
: 
This
 
place
 
is
 
situated
 
by
 
the
 
river
 
‘Parbati’.
 
The
 
mythology
 
and
 
local
 
belief
 
said
 
that
 
Lord
 
Shiva
 
ploughed
 
the
 
land
 
himself
 
for
 
cultivation
 
and
 
so
 
the
 
name
 
“Langaleswar”
 
is
 
given.
 
Daily
 
worship
 
is
 
the
 
feature
 
of
 
this
 
area
 
and
 
so
 
a
 
large
 
number
 
of
 
followers
 
come
 
here
 
every
 
day.

temple
 
of
 
Bardhanpur

visited
 
the
 
temple
 
of

shore
 
where
 
there
 
is
 
limitless
 
natural
 
beauty
 
and
 
many
 
religious
 
places
 
are
 
present.

reason
 
the
 
eco
-
 
tourism,
 
adventure,
 
wild
 
life
 
tourism,
 
religious
 
tourism
 
spots
 
can
 
be
 
established
 
with
 
the
 
help
 
of
 
Government,
 
private
 
agencies
 
and
 
also
 
the
 
local
 
people.
 
The

of
 
the
 
Government,
 
all
 
political
 
parties
 
and
 
common
 
people
 
in
 
all

The
 
Problems
 
for
 
Expansion/Construction
 
of
 
Tourism
 
Industry
 
in
 
the
 
Study
 
Area
: 
Many
 
problems
 
arise
 
during
 
the
 
implementation
 
of
 
sustainable
 
development.
 
The
 
only
 
one
 
way
 
out
 
is
 
to
 
create
 
awareness
 
among
 
the
 
local
 
people
 
about
 
tourism
 
industry
 
and
 
availability
 
of
 
tourist
 
in
 
Balasore
 
and
 
Odisha.
 
i. 
Deficiency
 
of
 
good
 
road
 
ways
 
and
 
road
 
networking.
 
ii. 
The
 
number
 
of
 
guest
 
houses
 
and
 
bungalows
 
are
 
not
 
enough
 
as
 
to
 
the
 
necessity.
 
iii. 
The
 
coastal
 
areas
 
are
 
highly
 
dissected
 
due
 
to
 
excessive
 
rivers
 
and
 
cannel
 
network.
 
iv. 
Lack
 
of
 
quality
 
tourist
 
map
 
and
 
tourist
 
guide.
 
v. 
Scarcity
 
of
 
participation
 
of
 
private
 
tourism
 
sector.
 
vi. 
Lack
 
of
 
maintenance
 
of
 
a
 
particular
 
tourist
 
spot
 
by
 
the
 
local
 
community.
 
vii. 
The
 
local
 
community
 
does
 
n
ot
 
have
 
complete
 
knowledge
 
of
 
tourist
 
spot
 
and

Sustainable
 
Tourism
 
Approach
: 
Sustainable
 
tourism
 
approach
 
is
 
challenging
 
to
 
make
 
as
 
low
 
an
 
contact
 
on
 
the
 
environment
 
and
 
local
 
culture
 
as
 
promising
 
while
 
helping
 
to
 
produce
 
future
 
employment
 
for
 
local
 
people,
 
in

the
 
UNWTO
 
sustainable
 
tourism
 
is
 
defined
 
conceptually
 
as
 
development
 
guidelines
 
and
 
management

4.  The nature 
is ever changing. So there can be no unbending and fixed 
tourism policy. The authority has to espouse the policy 
considering this change. With the spread of 
tourism industry it 
must be careful that the area will be over crowed, noisy and 
above all the pressure of infrastructure will growing up. So we 
must keep in mind that the equilibrium of nature should
 
not
 
be
 
violated
 
for
 
the
 
next
 
generations.
 
For
 
this
 
we
 
n
eed
 
to
 
adopt
 
sustainable
 
tourism
 
development.
 
The
 
rationale
 
of
 
sustainable
 
development
 
is
 
to
 
fulfill
 
multi
-
dimensional
 
necessities
 
of
 
the
 
tourists
 
and
 
the
 
local
 
people
 
will
 
get
 
employment
 
which
 
will
 
cause
 
development
 
with
 
one
 
condition
 
that
 
nature
 
should
 
not
 
be
 
shattered.
 
So
 
awareness
 
is
 
indispensable
 
and
 
sustainable
 
development
 
will
 
be
 
executed
 
according
 
to
 
the
 
plan
 
and
 
guideline.

Sustainable
 
tourist
 
spot
 
development
 
necessitates
 
the
 
well
-
versed
 
participation
 
of
 
all
 
pertinent
 
stakeholders
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
strong
 
political
 
leadership
 
to
 
make
 
certain
 
wide

consensus
 
building.
 
Accomplishing
 
sustainable
 
tourism
 
is
 
an
 
unremitting
 
process
 
and
 
it
 
requires
 
invariable
 
monitoring
 
of
 
impacts
 
introducing
 
the
 
essential
 
anticipatory
 
and
 
corrective
 
measures
 
whenever

should
 
also
 
maintain
 
a
 
high
 
level
 
of
 
tourist
 
satisfaction
 
and
 
ensure
 
a
 
meaningful

Strategies
 
for
 
Tourism
 
Industry
 
Development
: 
The
 
beautiful
 
natural
 
setting,
 
64km
 
long
 
coastline
 
exiting
 
sand
 
dune
 
and
 
the
 
confluence
 
of
 
the
 
rivers
 
are
 
ideal
 
background
 
to
 
develop
 
the
 
tourism
 
industry.
 
The
 
strategies
 
of
 
building
 
up
 
tourism
 
industries
 
are
 
as
 
follows: i. 
Good
 
quality
 
road
 
should
 
be
 
constructed
 
up
 
to
 
all
 
tourist
 
spots.
 
ii. 
Enough
 
scope
 
of
 
accommodation
 
should
 
be
 
arranged
 
in
 
all
 
tourist
 
spots.
 
iii. 
Supply
 
of
 
electricity
 
and
 
drinking
 
water
 
should
 
be
 
ensured.
 
iv. 
Trained
 
guide
 
and
 
public
 
transportation
 
should
 
be
 
ensured.
 
v. 
All
 
tourist
 
spots
 
of
 
the
 
present
 
study
 
area
 
should
 
be
 
interconnected.
 
vi. 
The
 
State
 
Government
 
should
 
pay
 
attention
 
to
 
tourism
 
industry
 
to
 
collect
 
more
 
tax.
 
vii. 
The
 
Government
 
should
 
find
 
out
 
new
 
spots
 
and
 
develop
 
them
 
for
 
the
 
tourism.
 
 
Conclusion
 
Coastal
 
zone,
 
the
 
transitional
 
zone
 
between
 
land
 
and
 
sea,
 
is
 
one
 
of
 
the
 
most
 
fragile,
 
complex
 
and
 
a
 
productive
 
ecosystem.
 
It
 
is
 
bestowed
 
with
 
enormous
 
resources
 
both
 
-
 
living,
 
non
-
living
 
and
 
is
 
a
 
potential
 
area
 
for
 
recreation
 
and
 
harnessing
 
non
-
conventional
 
energy
 
resources
 
(wave
 
and
 
wind
 
energy).
 
Accelerated
 
and
 
unscientific
 
developmental
 
activities
 
have
 
induced
 
catastrophic
 
consequences.
 
In
 
order
 
to
 
optimally
 
utilize
 
and
 
reap
 
the
 
benefits
 
without
 
hampering
 
the
 
balance,
 
it
 
is
 
necessary
 
to
 
adopt
 
integrated
 
coastal
 
management
 
strategies
 
based
 
on
 
solid
 
scientific
 
foundation
 
that
 
allow
 
for
 
multiple
 
uses
 
of
 
the
 
resources
 
without
 
causing
 
serious
 
damage
 
to
 
the
 
environment.
 
 
Coastal ecosystems found along continental margins are regions 
of remarkable biological productivity and high accessibility. 
This has made them centers of human activity for millennia. 
Coastal ecosystems provide a wide array of goods and services: 
they hos
t the world’s primary ports of commerce; they are the 
primary producers of fish, shellfish, and seaweed for both 
human and animal consumption and they are also a considerable 
place of tourism industry development. The beauty of coastal 
ecosystems makes the
m a magnet for the world’s population. 
People drift down to coastal regions to live as well as for 
leisure, recreational activities and tourism. For purposes of this 
analysis the coastal zone has been defined to include the 
intertidal and sub tidal areas o
n and above the continental shelf 
(to a depth of 200 meters) and immediately adjacent lands. 
 
 
Recently Central Government has approved an ICZM 
(Integrated Coastal Zone Management) project at a cost of 
Rs.1156 crore to build up capacity and establishment to 
efficiently execute the Coastal Regulation Zone Notification 
(1991) aimed to control pollutio
n of coastal waters and to 
increase livelihood options for coastal communities.
