Site Inspection at Galloways 30.12.2008

DOC  arranged a site inspection  at Galloways/Lydd Ranges with EA and MOD Staff which took place on 30 December 2008. Our Technical Officer Tony Hills and  MOD Staff were able to  update the  EA  on the present state of sea defences at Galloways/Lydd Ranges.

Fact Finding Visit/EA Team

It also presented  an ideal opportunity to meet with the newly appointed EA team  in charge of carrying out the planned sea defence improvements for the Romney Marsh Area and DOC looks forward working closely together with the EA Team to secure a satisfactory outcome . Regular progress reports have been promised by the EA which will be published on this website as soon as they become available.

In the meantime much needed re-shingling work  continues at various locations along the coastline  to minimise the risk of flooding.
