Report October 2003
Much has been achieved this summer. We had a contracter move many hundreds of tons of sand from the south end of the lagoon, accross the river and reprofiled the dunes where they were worst eroded. This was followed by erection of fencing completely encircling the dunes to try and keep people off the delicate structures. This has been reinforced by notices on the fence explaining why they are neccessary and asking for cooperation. During September a number of volunteers, about a dozen at a time, worked for 11 days planting maram grass on the bare sand. It is hoped that the grass will have a chance to root this winter and help to hold the dunes in place. The work of the volunteers is much appreciated.
Thus the damage done to the dunes has been repaired. Discussions are still ongoing regarding another four actions to try to prevent further erosion. These actions are more sand on the beach in front of the dunes, stones to break the waves, repairs to the breakwater, and finally reinstatement of the groynes.
