| Title: | E-LINES AND E-ZONES |
| Caption: | Conceptual diagram of E-lines and E-zones based on the rate of coastal erosion from a reference point, such as the sea cliff or dune line. Width of the zones depends on the rate of erosion and defines setback distances. Of course, after 60 years the structures will be much closer to the shoreline and vulnerable to erosion. It is a form of planned obsolescence. (Modified from National Research Council. 1990. Managing coastal erosion. Washington, DC: National Academy Press) |
