==Description==
'''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.
Licensed sand extraction areas, are designated regions where sand extraction is permitted under regulatory oversight. These areas are crucial for projects such as coastal protection, construction, and land reclamation. The extracted sand plays a vital role in reinforcing beaches, preventing erosion, and maintaining the stability of coastlines.
 
In addition to coastal protection, licensed sand extraction is essential for the construction industry, providing key materials for concrete and asphalt production. By carefully managing these licensed areas, authorities strive to balance the demand for resources with the need for environmental conservation, ensuring sustainable use of natural resources.


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.

Description

Licensed sand extraction areas, are designated regions where sand extraction is permitted under regulatory oversight. These areas are crucial for projects such as coastal protection, construction, and land reclamation. The extracted sand plays a vital role in reinforcing beaches, preventing erosion, and maintaining the stability of coastlines.

In addition to coastal protection, licensed sand extraction is essential for the construction industry, providing key materials for concrete and asphalt production. By carefully managing these licensed areas, authorities strive to balance the demand for resources with the need for environmental conservation, ensuring sustainable use of natural resources.
