An   one-of-a-kind  financial  zone (EEZ) is a maritime   place  wherein  a coastal   u . s . a .  has jurisdiction over the   sources  withinside the  water and seabed. The United Nations Convention   at the  Law of the Sea in 1982   installed  the   idea  of EEZs.
What does an EEZ include?

Rights: Coastal   international locations  have   one-of-a-kind  rights to explore, exploit, conserve, and   control  the   sources  of their  EEZ

Activities: Coastal international locations  can   set up  synthetic  islands, installations, and   systems  of their  EEZ

Fisheries: Coastal   international locations  can   control  fisheries and   save you  overfishing

Energy: Coastal   international locations  can produce   strength  from water and wind
 
How are EEZs defined?
The EEZ extends   2 hundred  nautical miles from the coast
The EEZ   consists of  the waters above the seabed, the seabed, and the subsoil

Examples of EEZs
The EEZ of   the US  consists of  Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, and   different  U.S. possessions
The EEZ of Canada extends from the outer   restriction  of its territorial sea to a line   2 hundred  nautical miles from   the closest  factor  of the territorial sea's baselines

Contiguous
A contiguous   area  is a maritime   area  that extends from the outer   fringe of  a country's territorial sea to a   most  of 24 nautical miles. Coastal states have the   proper  to   put into effect  legal guidelines  on this  area  to   save you  and punish violations   in their  customs, immigration, fiscal, and sanitary   legal guidelines .
Explanation
Limits
The contiguous   area  extends from the outer   fringe of  a country's territorial sea to a   most  of 24 nautical miles.
Enforcement
Coastal states can   put into effect  legal guidelines  withinside the  contiguous   area  to   save you  and punish violations   in their  legal guidelines .
Relationship to   different  zones
The contiguous   area  is   adjoining  to the territorial sea and the   special  financial  area  (EEZ).
Other rights
The United Nations Convention   at the  Law of the Sea (UNCLOS)   additionally  consists of  ancillary rights   withinside the  contiguous   area ,   inclusive of  the   proper  of   warm  pursuit.

Territorial Zone
A territorial   area ,   additionally  called  territorial waters, is a   area  of water that extends from   a rustic 's   shoreline  and is   beneathneath  the jurisdiction of that country. The territorial   area  is a   most  of 12 nautical miles from the baseline of the coast.
What does   a rustic  have sovereignty over in its territorial   area ?
The coastal   kingdom  has   complete  sovereignty over the air space, seabed, and subsoil
The coastal   kingdom  can legislate on   topics  which includes  navigation safety, pollution, and environmental preservation
The coastal   kingdom  can reserve   useful resource  use   in the  territorial   area
What rights do   different  international locations  have in a territorial   area ?
Other   international locations  have the   proper  of   harmless  passage   thru  the territorial   area
Innocent passage   manner  that   different  international locations  can   byskip  thru  the territorial   area  with out  hampering the coastal   kingdom 's   protection
Other   international locations  can   prevent  and anchor   withinside the  territorial   area  for   everyday  navigation
How did the 12 nautical mile   restriction  come about?
The United States   cautioned  the 12 nautical mile   restriction  in the course of  the 1945 United Nations Conference   at the  Law of the Sea
The United States   emphasised  that   international locations  have to  manipulate  adjoining  waters to   guard  their   protection  and   monetary  interests .
