The Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Coastal Authorities Group

The Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Coastal Authorities Group works to encourage an integrated, strategic approach to the management of the Cornwalls coastal zone and that of the Isles of Scilly. It provides a forum for coastal practitioners to both discuss problems and develop shoreline management techniques that are both economically efficient and sensitive to environmental considerations.

The focus of the group has traditionally been coastal defence issues although the group recognises the importance of the natural, human and built environments on coastal defence policies, as demonstrated in the Shoreline Management Plans.
