Objective
The project has three objectives:
- to demonstrate tried and tested models for the full range of plans relevant to the coastal zone;
- to provide detailed descriptions of all relevant aspects of the coastal zone for a 400 km length of the south coast of England together with local and transnational examples;
- to demonstrate how good practice can lead to sustainable coastal policies in a complex area through concerted actions at various levels.
With the refinements and improved methods of co-operation resulting from this demonstration programme, this model could have wide applications.
The Isle of Wight Council has prepared coastal zone, shoreline and estuary plans. This project will include the development of management plans for European marine sites and the integration of these plans with terrestrial sites. The Isle of Wight Council is establishing a system to manage its complex geotechnical problems. It is planned to expand this system to provide a model for storage, management and retrieval of data relating to all aspects of the coastal zone. The system can take advantage of the technical library held by the Isle of Wight Council which forms a part of the coastal database established by SCOPAC (Steering Conferences on Problems associated with the Coastline). Strategic studies being put forward by SCOPAC as part of this project will assist in developing models for the appraisal of seabed conditions and the environmental impact of activities such as mineral dredging. Further research will establish methods of linking coastal plans on a regional basis and will highlight the value of collaborative research within coastal sediment cells.
