Answer: D
Correct answer: A-2, B-4, C-1, D-3
Each use represents a distinct interest that a coastal decision may help or harm. Commercial fishing is a livelihood dependent on the resource itself. A port needs a navigable channel maintained. Recreation and tourism depend on the beach and the amenity of the coast. Nature conservation is concerned with habitat and species. A scheme that serves one may damage another, which is why they are identified separately.
