Feature service for the Open Data portal. Coastal erosion hazard zones are developed at specific locations, considering geology, geomorphology, historic shoreline movement and wave models and use empirical equations to calculate setback distances. The zones do not indicate future shorelines, rather than the area at risk of erosion considering long-term...

River Flood Hazard Zones (50 year Extent): The area potentially susceptible to river flooding in a 2% AEP / 50Yr ARI. Regionwide River flood hazard zones were developed by 2 different external expert consultants between 2016 (Priority Rivers) and 2021 (Regionwide Models). The layers are derived by advanced models using empirical calculations. Two...

In our harbours, untreated sewage can contaminate the shellfish we eat or make water unsafe for swimming for a long time after its discharged. If you’re a boat owner, help protect our harbours by disposing of your boat sewage properly. To report pollution, phone our Environmental Hotline on 0800 504 639. Boat sewage is a serious risk to human and animal...
