Coastal Planning
About this page
Various plans underpin management of the Victorian coastline.
Coastlinks
Coastlinks is a statewide extension of the West Victorian Coast and Marine Information Reference (WVCMIR) originally conceived and developed by the Western Coastal Board and stakeholders.
Corangamite CMA
The Corangamite Catchment Management Authority (CMA) covers the catchments in the Surf Coast and nearby Shires.
Great Ocean Road region
Two coastal action plans have been developed for the Great Ocean Road region which is managed by GORCC:
Port of Lorne Safety and Environment Review
The Great Ocean Road Coast Committee invites comments on any safety or environmental concerns which Port of Lorne users may wish to pursue.
Surf Coast Shire
Surf Coast Shire manages several sections of coast, including the Bells Beach recreation reserve. The Shire is also responsible for a range of planning and other matters that affect the coast.
Victorian Coastal Strategy
The new Victorian Coastal Strategy 2008 is fundamental to how GORCC manages the coast.
West Victorian Coast and Marine Information Reference
A excellent resource centre with information and activities for young and old.
Western Coastal Board
The Western Coastal Board (WCB) oversees strategic coastal and marine planning issues in Victoria's Western Coastal Region which extends from Breamlea (near Torquay) to the South Australia border.
