  <course-description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Objectives:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This course is designed to provide participants with an understanding of the complexities of environmental regulation of the coastal and marine environment. Conceptually, the course is intended to move from the shore to the high seas, beginning with the foundations of coastal law and ending with recent initiatives on marine environmental regulation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Content:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The course commences with a consideration of the coastal and marine environment, and the legal framework which operates within that area, especially that established under international law. Particular attention will be given to the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea and the maritime zones established under that Convention and Australian practice in that regard. Constitutional structures for giving effect to marine and coastal law in Australia will be assessed, and the construct of the legal regime in Australia at the Commonwealth, State, and Territory level, including relevant local government regulation. Attention will also be given to marine living and non-living resource management, the regulation of marine and coastal pollution, and Australia law and policy regarding whaling.&lt;/p&gt;</course-description>
