1 Estuary Care Foundation SA: community led restoration & climate adaptation Presentation to SA Coastal Conference 9 th November 2017 Catherine McMahon, Estuary Care Foundation
2 Port River and Barker Inlet Estuary
3 Local environment action
4 Why form Foundation Concern Frustration Examples elsewhere Claiming our vision Vehicle for sourcing funds
5 What the future holds AdaptWest, regional climate adaptation plan
6 What the future holds
7 Living Shoreline Port River Drawings: Peri Coleman 2015
8 Nature-based solutions Potentially lessen the impact of sea level rise Use instead of or in conjunction with hard structures More viable now pollution into the Port River has lessened

12 Key priorities of the Foundation Trials of Living Shorelines Shellfish Reef Restoration Seagrass Restoration Community education and engagement
13 Living Shorelines Eco-engineering Environmentally friendly sea walls (NSW) Coastal Resilience (USA)
14 Living Shorelines shoreline protection options offer erosion control benefits natural coastal processes remain strategically place plants, stone, sand fill and other materials
15 USA experience
16 How cost effective is natural infrastructure? The Nature Conservancy 16
17 Examples of Living Shorelines This living shoreline replaced a failing bulkhead at a state boat ramp on the Chowan River, North Carolina (Source: Coastal Review Online)
18 Examples of Living Shorelines Avon River Environment Association (Canada) building a Living Shoreline 2010
19 Example of Living Shoreline, NSW Carss bush park seawall with rockpools, extended slope, crevices, endangered saltmarsh, Kogarah Council 2016
20 Living Shoreline: bagged recycled shell OceanWatch Australia is helping NSW coastal communities turn old oyster shell into living shorelines in an Australian first

25 Port River Shellfish Restoration Project Formed in January 2016 Advisers Learn Goals and plans Volunteer manual Community NRM grant
26 Initial research questions Can Ostrea angasi (approx 60mm) survive at our trial sites? What spat can be recruited during the spawning seasons of mussels and Ostrea angasi? Can Ostrea angasi spat on shell survive at our trial sites?
27 Grow sites
