Community Resource Guide for Planning Living Shorelines Projects

This resource is a companion to The Nature Conservancy’s Coastal Resilience apps and the related Restoration Explorer, an app that gives users a way to visualize which living shoreline techniques are most appropriate for reducing erosion at specific sites along New Jersey’s coastline.

The guide provides summary information and additional resources on the benefits of incorporating living shorelines into community planning processes and key steps in identifying, planning, and implementing living shorelines in a community.
