Hyogo Prefecture has a long history of coastal fisheries and has been selected as the study site. Community based fishery management in Japan reduce monitoring and enforcement cost. Fishermen comply rule and regulation settled by them, bottom up not top down. Participation from fishermen in adopting fishery management plan is the key factor. There can be transaction costs involve in adopting the Fisheries Coordination Scheme. Nevertheless this can be paid off by the long run benefit from the greater resource abundance and the optimum utilization of the available fishery resources. Fishermen can equally participate in community fishery management through being member of corresponding fishery cooperative. They have the common goal of optimum utilization fishery resource. The fishing right granted to fishery cooperative is fairly distributed among the members, transparently. System of election at each step supports this factor of equity. Coastal fisheries in Seto Inland Sea - Hyogo Prefecture is sustainable. Fishermen collaborate in maintaining the ecological system (example is the management in Sika-no-Se Area) and sustainable fishery development. This is mainly due to the granted fishing right, equity in right sharing system, and effective coordination among stakeholders.
