<![CDATA[This study aimed to analyze the legal status of land ownership rights in the coastal area of Tangerang based on the Basic Agrarian Law (Undang-Undang Pokok Agraria / UUPA) and to formulate a legal settlement model for the practice of sea fencing in the area. The study employed normative legal research using a statute approach and analytical-conceptual approach. The collected primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials were analyzed using qualitative descriptive methods. The results showed that the legal status of land rights in the coastal area of Tangerang lacked a valid legal basis under the UUPA. The issuance of Building Rights Certificates (HGB) and Property Rights Certificates (SHM) in these areas was considered legally defective because: (a) the areas did not have marine space utilization permits from the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries (KKP); (b) the issuance of such rights contradicted the principle of common ownership (common property) as affirmed in Constitutional Court Decision No. 3/PUU-VII/2010 concerning the Management of Coastal Areas and Small Islands, which prohibits the privatization of marine space; and (c) the rights were inconsistent with the Zoning Plan for Coastal Areas and Small Islands (Rencana Zonasi Wilayah Pesisir dan Pulau-Pulau Kecil / RZWP3K) of Banten Province. Dispute resolution could be pursued through administrative, criminal, and civil mechanisms, including permit revocation, criminal sanctions in the form of imprisonment and fines under Article 73 of the Law on the Management of Coastal Areas and Small Islands, compensation claims through court proceedings, and out-of-court mediation.]]>
