The most common reason a coastal management plan fails in implementation is

  • A.the appointment of an unsuitable engineering contractor
  • B.insufficient funding or consent for the policies adopted
  • C.an error in the coastal process analysis underlying it
  • D.the use of the wrong units in the survey measurements

Answer: B

Correct answer: insufficient funding or consent for the policies adopted

Plans generally fail at the implementation stage rather than in their analysis. A policy of holding the line means nothing without the money to build and maintain the defence, and a policy of realignment means nothing without the consents and the agreement of those who lose land. The technical work is usually the sound part; the gap between an adopted policy and a funded, consented scheme is where plans die.
