Natural Coastal Resources - Wales A Future Vision for the Coast Monday 13 th January 2014 Louise Pennington Senior Coastal Advisor, Flood Risk Strategy team Natural Resources Wales Natural Coastal Resources - Wales

The significance of coastal resources in Wales Natural Coastal Resources - Wales Flood defence (Cardiff) Cliff erosion (Dunraven Bay) Beach morphology (Rhossili Bay) Industrial resilience (Milford Haven) Tourism (Solva) Harbours (Fishguard, New Quay, Aberaeron) Dune stability (Ynyslas) Infrastructure (Dovey, Mawddach) Heritage (Porthdinllaen) Ports (Holyhead) Piers (Llandudno)

Natural Coastal Resources - Wales ‘to ensure that the natural resources of Wales are sustainably maintained, enhanced and used, now and in the future.’ Our vision for coastal resources in Wales How does this vision influence long-term strategic thinking? How is such thinking incorporated into short-term planning priorities?

Shoreline Management Planning ‘ a (non-statutory) document that provides a large scale assessment of the risks associated with coastal processes and presents a policy framework to reduce these risks to people and the developed, historic and natural environment in a sustainable manner’ National Assembly for Wales, 2005 Natural Coastal Resources - Wales Coastal Group led. Largely Welsh Government funded.

National Habitat Creation Programme Aim to establish new habitats, especially saltmarsh, in advance of losses to protected Natura 2000 sites arising from coastal squeeze. Natural Coastal Resources - Wales Review projections and resulting requirements. Requires significant funding and policy review.

Coastal Erosion Mapping at the Community Scale Natural Coastal Resources - Wales

Current priorities National FCERM Strategy objectives: Reducing the consequences for individuals, communities, businesses and the environment from flooding and coastal erosion. Raising awareness of, and engaging people in the response to, flood and coastal erosion risk. Providing an effective and sustained response to flood and coastal erosion events. Prioritising investment in the most at risk communities.

Natural Coastal Resources - Wales Sea level rise (20cm by 2050, 44cm by 2095) Increased wave heights (generated by greater water depths) Greater storm frequency (20-fold increase by 2100) Increased coastal erosion (to 4m above normal sea level) Fluctuating rainfall (14% winter increase, 16% summer decrease) Increasing river flows (exacerbating flood risks to estuarine areas) Projections of future coastal change

Natural Coastal Resources - Wales Evidence and uncertainty Established working groups. Existing data gathering. Develop trends. Model future scenarios to reflect uncertainty.

Natural Coastal Resources - Wales SUSTAINABILITY Limitations on long-term, sustainable management of coastal resources Funding availability. Prioritisation. Political and other pressures. Resources. Dynamic. ‘Change’ rather than ‘damage’.

Thank you for listening Natural Coastal Resources - Wales
