Community Workshop
• The delivery of the CHRMAP will include:
• Evaluation of the coastal hazard risks identified in the CVS in terms of likelihood and
consequence;
• Identification of adaptation options to mitigate the identified risk; and
• Assessment of the adaptation options identified to select preferred options.
• Community and stakeholder engagement will occur throughout the process to
understand community values, gauge community tolerance of risk, identify adaptation
options to manage risk and understand which options are acceptable.
• This information will be used to meet legislative requirements and plan future monitoring,
development and investments in our coastal areas.

State Planning Policy SPP2.6
• Key guiding document for coastal planning in Western Australia
• Policy Objectives• sustainable development which recognises the need to balance competing economic, social and
environmental demands.
• Places of unique landscape, scientific and cultural significance should be conserved and managed.
• Ensuring future generations can enjoy the same access to the coast as the present day.
• Coastal Hazard Definition for Future Planning

Background Information
Three studies completed by CoGG for Geraldton
Shoreline areas:
1. Point Moore
2. CBD to Drummond Cove
3. Cape Burney to Greys Beach
Studies determine the potential effects of coastal
erosion and inundation based on SPP2.6
requirements.
Coastal hazard assessed across 3 planning
horizons - 2030, 2070 and 2110.
Recommend allowances in foreshore areas for
coastal hazard impacts.

Background Information
CHRMAP Risk Assessment
• Risk is a product of Likelihood and Consequence
• The risk assessment identifies coastal risks in highest need of response ie risk level Extreme or High
• Adaptation responses are developed to mitigate risk
• Note it is impossible / impractical to mitigate all risks
