  • Potentially Useful Beach Nourishment and Associated Studies/Projects – References
    Sand Nourishment Forum – Sand Nourishment Reference list October 2013 Updated from Coasts & Ports Conference, Sydney 2013 Potentially Useful Beach Nourishment and Associated Studies/Projects – References Foreword: The Coasts & Ports 2013 Organising Committee introduced a half- day Sand Nourishment Forum comprising a Questions and Answers format directed to an experienced Panel with audience participation to explore and promote the use of sand nourishment as a viable method for managing short term erosion and long term coastal recession. The Forum emanated from great interest in beach nourishment around Australia, with a long history of successful projects from Adelaide to Noosa and major projects on the Gold Coast. The 2013 Conference was launched with a keynote address from Dr Stefan Aarninkhof who was intricately involved in the Delfland Sand Engine project in the Netherlands, which has introduced 21.5M m3 of offshore sands to the Dutch coast to provide coastal protection and prevent coastal inundation. As a precursor to the Beach Nourishment Forum at the Coast & Ports Conference 2013 in Sydney, A. D. Gordon (Forum Moderator) compiled the following list of reference material with contributions from J.T. Carley, E.D. Couriel, A. L. Jackson, A.R Jones, D.B. Lord, A.F. Nielsen, T.D. Shand, R.B. Tomlinson, T. Stul, R. Tucker. The list is intended to be a start on a “live “ document that can be added to, as further reference material becomes available/unearthed. The list has been compiled to assist those carrying out or contemplating beach nourishment, beach scraping and entrance by-passing or back-passing projects. It is hoped that other special interest topics to the coastal and port engineering profession may be run in similar forums as part of the future Coasts & Ports Conference series.

The wonders of a farm in the heart of a beautiful valley. While dogs are also meant to stay on leash on this beach, dogs are often let off leash, including when I visited. Starting from outside the Manly Beach Lifesaving Club, the walk leads you along the coast, past an assortment of unique sculptures and the historic Fairy Bower Pool. The largest dog-friendly park in Sydney, almost half of this huge park in Sydney is off-leash. The off-leash dog section is located adjacent to the Bonna Point Reserve carpark, in between the third and fourth rock groynes. As the name suggests, the Banksia track is brimming with beautiful native Australian wildflowers and banksias. The best time to visit this dog beach is during the cooler months of the year.

    oct ‘o8....issue SURF RESCUE Celebrating 40 years of partnership with BP and 30 years of the IRB 2006 Best Photograph in Print 3rd = placing - Alan Gibson BP SURF NZLGB Surf Lifeguard of the Year RESCUE Debbie Phillips-Morgan AWARDS + DHL ‘In it for Life’ Awards with Photos season begins 08 + 09 special issue a look back at the beginnings of the IRB and BP partnership safer beaches. For over 40 years we’ve been helping to keep beaches safe. So thanks to our people in yellow and red.....and green. It is an honour to write the foreword for this special edition to mark the 40 years of the BP Surf Life Saving partnership. This magazine is a very special record of that partnership as well as the development of power craft in New Zealand. BP’s partnership with Surf Life Saving started in 1968. Europa had provided the Worser Bay Club with a new surf boat early in the year which was used to save passengers of the Wahine in Wellington Harbour. That event made my predecessors realise what role the company could play in helping to save lives.
