Jacobs, in partnership with Royal HaskoningDHV, every coastal Risk Management Authority (RMA), the Environment Agency (EA) and Natural Resources Wales (NRW) have been working to undertake a coastal 'health check' on each SMP to ensure they are fit for purpose, at the core of ongoing sustainable shoreline management and to produce new guidance addressing policy delivery challenges identified. This includes planning and engineering disciplines and relevant stakeholders.
