Nature-based erosion protection

Last updated on September 9, 2022

The Stewardship Centre for BC’s Green Shores® program encourages shoreline projects to use nature-based erosion protection and restoration in sites where erosion protection is needed. With appropriate guidance from Qualified Coastal and Environmental Professionals, nature-based shoreline projects can be designed to be resilient to sea level rise and other climate change impacts.

To support eligible entities in the construction of nature-based erosion protection and restoration works, a guide and checklist have been developed by the province in partnership with the Stewardship Centre for British Columbia.

Currently this is a PILOT project only available in the West Coast region.
