Journal Title: Journal of ETA Maritime Science - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 4

Abstract

Municipalities are the institutions which can identify the regional problems better, as they are the closest governmental unit to the public. Ensuring the participation of public in the administration, improving life quality within borders of the municipality, regional public wealth, peace and welfare, meeting the local requirements in a modernized attitude are among the main duties of them. Activity and service areas of local administrations have been increased progressively during the recent years. Since the environmental problems have no limit in their nature, all communities are affected by the increasing regional issues which can be felt globally. Considering the environmental problems only in the surrounding of TRNC and trying to solve those by coastal management systems would not be possible. The environmental problems should be taken into account by the all stakeholders, having integrated coastal management in mind. The priority should be given to protect the environment and prevent pollution by information sharing with interested parties. In this study; local administration approaches on marine environment and marine activities are investigated, and the authority, responsibility and what the local administrations can act on these issues are searched and finally aimed to provide some recommendations for the existing situation in the TRNC.
