A quick definition of coast water:
Water is a clear liquid made of hydrogen and oxygen. It can be found in streams, rivers, lakes, and oceans. Coast water is water that can be navigated by boats coming in from the ocean. Groundwater is water found in rocks and soil. Surface water is water that collects on the ground but doesn't form a stream. Private water is owned by individuals and not for public use. Public water is for navigation or public access. Territorial waters are the waters under a state or nation's control. Wastewater is water that is not used or is left over after a process.
A more thorough explanation:
Coast water refers to any water that is navigable by an ocean vessel and opens directly or indirectly into the ocean. This includes bodies of water such as streams, rivers, lakes, and oceans.
For example, the Pacific Ocean is considered coast water because it is navigable by ocean vessels and opens directly into the ocean.
Understanding the different types of water is important for legal and regulatory purposes, as different bodies of water may be subject to different regulations and laws.
