COASTAL EROSION WORKSHOP
Chris Coutts introduced the Forth Estuary Forum (FEM). It is an umbrella organisation principally funded by Marine Scotland. FEM has already held a workshop on dredging and Chris is now keen to set up a new group bringing together expertise on coastal erosion.
The ambition is to bring approximately 30 specialists, perhaps to Dunbar.
Kenny and Mike had introduced Chris to the East Beach and its history. The meeting attendees joined with them in a lengthy and detailed discussion about the possible causes of the sand loss and the threat that this now posed to the sea defences.
