Legal Extent and Characteristics of the EEZ Sample Clauses

Legal Extent and Characteristics of the EEZ. The Marine Zones (Declaration) Act 1983 (Act No. 7 of 1983) defines and establishes the territorial seas,8 the archipelagic waters and an economic exclusive zone. In accordance with rules of international law, the extent of territorial seas and of the exclusive economic zone must not exceed 12 and 200 nautical miles respectively.
