the most misunderstood and misused rule .check this out .
crz has been issued under rule 5d3 of eprules 86 applicable to an area
area as defined in rule 2aa is where hazardous substances are handled
check the defination of hazardous substances in epa86
then influenced by tidal action upto 500m on landward side .
refer to influence in the oxford dictioary
therefore it means that land like dunes ,pebble beaches ,salt flats ,sand barriers islands/banksetc and not solid soil or hilly parts of the coast which are not changeable due to tidal action ,if erosion is taking place it needs to be prevented according to so 114, also tidal action can only take place at sea level ,for that we use the pgn spring high level, except in the case of unstable dunes which in most cases are under 3 mtrs high
also agriculture in this zone is permitted so small dwellings are permitted.
hazardous substances can only be handled in industrial areas .if handled in other zones such as residential or agricultural it anyway attracts the epa86
please reply
david

Why? Well, if we didn't have laws that were open to misuse, we wouldn't have laws at all, would we? An enforcement of the CRZ would have saved thousands of lives on this occasion. On the other hand, I guess you're right that it's hardly likely to be enforced. But do we start stripping away our other laws as well because they can be and are often misused? Also, as regards your fourth point, there's plenty of other space in rural TN to construct shanties illegally. (And I've been travelling through vast expanses of it for a week!) After what just happened, it's hardly likely that anyone would choose to build shanties by the coast when they can come up anywhere else. So the flouting of the law might see the seven-star beach resorts you speak of, but not the shanties. And if a tsunami comes again, less lives will be lost.
