I was being sarcastic, sorry for the misdirection
You are correct, it is getting ridiculous the land loss. There are plans in place also, and the money is very very close to getting here to start implementing the plans. However there is a contingency of folks that are blaming the Caernarvon Diversion on the loss of land below there, even though the diversion is not a sediment diversion and was never meant to be, and land right east of there is being lost at a much faster rate. Hopefully that will not hinder the plans as it is already law and we can finally get some of these projects underway
