- Summary
- In November 2019 Environment Canterbury (ECan) and Timaru District Council (TDC) commissioned Jacobs to undertake a coastal erosion assessment to determine the potential changes in shoreline position over the next 100 years along the Timaru District coastline. This assessment has developed Projected Future Shoreline Positions (PFSP) for different sea-level rise (SLR) scenarios over a 50 and 100-year timeframe, for the purpose of guiding decision making for land use planning in the next District Plan for the Timaru District and for the development of future coastal asset planning and management strategies.
