    Preparatory Survey for the Mombasa Gate Bridge Construction Project Chapter 14 Environmental and Social Considerations 14.1 Project Component which Affect Environmental and Social Considerations This project is for the construction of a bridge which will supplement the existing car ferry service connecting Mombasa Island and Mainland South. The project will improve traffic conditions between Mombasa Island and the Mainland and will contribute to the development of the local economy. However, the construction works and the existence and operation of the bridge may cause negative impacts on the environment and require land acquisition and involuntary resettlement for the development of approach roads.

  • Coastal Livelihoods in the Republic of Kenya General
    COASTAL LIVELIHOODS IN THE REPUBLIC OF KENYA GENERAL INTRODUCTION The Agulhas and Somali Current Large Marine Ecosystems (ASCLME) project is focused on the two large marine ecosystems of the Western Indian Ocean (WIO) region, covering nine countries that are directly influenced by these current systems. It is estimated that at least fifty-six million people are reliant either directly or indirectly on the goods and services provided by these two current systems. The ASCLME project aims to support these countries in their efforts to collectively manage the marine resources on which their people and economies depend. Fisheries and other key coastal activities, including various forms of tourism, aquaculture, shipping and coastal transport, the energy sector, agriculture and forestry, are very important contributors to the economies of the countries of the WIO. In recognition of the complexity and importance of these activities, a Coastal Livelihoods Assessment (CLA) component was developed for the ASCLME project. The CLA component had three main objectives: • to collect as much existing information as possible about the main coastal activities in the nine participating countries as a contribution to the national Marine Ecosystem Diagnostic Analyses (MEDAs); • to make input into ensuring that this information is stored and organised in a manner that will allow easy access and maximum utility to multiple stakeholders, both during and after the lifetime of the ASCLME Project; • to review and sythesise the information collected in order to provide useful inputs to the TDA and SAP processes. In order to achieve these objectives, the CLA component was separated into three distinct phases, with the first phase kicking off in May 2009.

  • Geomorphology and Sedimentology of the Mombasa
    GEOMORPHOLOGY AND SEDIMENTOLOGY OF THE MOMBASA - DIANI AREA: IMPLICATIONS TO COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT BY */ PAMELA ATIENO W. ABUODHA. NAIROBI, 1992. f ^ GEDhEOMORPHDLDGY AND SEDIMENTOLDGY OF THE MOMBASA-DIANI AREA: IMPLICATIONS TO COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT 1 / BY A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of Master of Science in the University of Nairobi. r This thesis is my original work and has not been presented -for a degree in any other University. P. A. W. ABUODHA This thesis has been submitted -for exami nat i orK, wi th my knowledge as University Supervisor. DR. E. 0. ODADA 1 ABSTRACT The overall objective of this thesis was to identify coastal zone management problems within Mombasa— Diani area. The study of sedimentological processes and geomorphic features have been used to solve these problems. Other objectives included evaluating the effectiveness of the existing control measures and identifying response strategies for the affected areas. The methods used were divided into field and laboratory methods. Sediments were investigated using grain size distribution analysis, carbonate content determination and microscopic study. Beach profiling, beach gradients and beach y width measurements together with wave and current measurements and aerial photo interpretation facilitated the interpretation of geomorphic results. The results of sedimentological wort showed erosional beaches to occur at Kikambala, Kanamai, Mtwapa, Shanzu, Bamburi, Kenyatta and Black Cliff Point. Nyali , Tiwi, Galu and Kinondo were found to be stable beaches while Likoni, Diani and Gazi were considered depositional beaches given no induced erosion. Geomorphological 1y, coastal dunes and beach f ridges, cliffed coasts and backshore areas could be developed but with proper set back lines so as not to induce erosion.
