摘要
The coastal zone is a dynamic system in which the nature of activities, levels of use, and spatial distribution of activities are in a constant state of flux. Managers are able to confront this dynamism by continually developing new roles for permits. In the Cairns Section of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, staff responsible for the assessment and issuance of permits have gradually developed a permit system that meets the particular needs of this park. Initially used to meet legislative responsibilities and control use, permits now play a critical role in day-to-day resource management, policy and management plan implementation, data collection, and public liaison. Managers have recognized the value of the permit system as its role changed with changing uses, and levels of use in the marine park. Users of the park have also come to realize that permits are to their benefit by: protecting their resources, providing a venue to discuss problems regarding their operations or other users, and resolving conflict.
