Within a year of this law taking effect, every coastal city or town must set aside at least one marine protected area of at least 10 hectares (or 15 % of its waters if very small). The areas are to be managed jointly by local officials, communities, government agencies and the private sector, with funding coming mainly from the local government’s budget and possible extra grants.
