Search areas for Sand are regions identified for the extraction of sand, used in projects like coastal protection, construction, and land reclamation. The sand helps reinforce beaches and prevent erosion, maintaining coastline stability.
Additionally, commercial sand extraction is crucial for the construction industry, providing essential materials for concrete and asphalt. By carefully managing these areas, authorities aim to balance resource needs with environmental conservation.
