The problem of land management along the coastal shoreline is an important one for the American public, whose already extraordinary recreational demands on this limited space are expected to nearly triple by the turn of the century. "Shoreline for the Public" notes that the institutional mechanisms operating over the past three centuries to allocate scarce coastal resources among competing users have brought unchecked private development to America's coasts. Compounded by problems of pollution, erosion, and the increasing tendency of private owners to restrict public access, this trend has resulted in severe limitations on opportunities for public recreation.The Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972 proclaims a national interest in the problem of decreasing public recreational space in the face of mushrooming demand. This study discusses the social significance of the problem, outlines the causes of coastal mismanagement in terms of the organization of economic and political activity, and examines in detail the legal issues pertinent to the formation of public policy. Included are analyses of the legal regimes governing public versus private rights in seashore areas, the judicial application of common-law principles to secure public recreational rights, shoreline acquisition, and the application of land-use controls to regulate shoreline development. The author concludes that a number of legal techniques "can" be made effective in preserving the seashore as a unique recreational resource for public use.While concentrating on the narrow land-sea strip, "Shoreline for the Public" raises larger issues facing environmental resource management. Decreasing open space for public recreation is prototypical of the complexity of coastal resource management issues. The problems cannot be solved solely by judicial activity but will require coherent and orderly long-range legislative and administrative management to make equitable and efficient choices among policy alternatives. Bringing public recreation, private use, and conservation into balance will require the application of new techniques at the interfaces between government and the courts, between government and the citizenry, and between different levels of government.

Living Shorelines: The Science and Management of Nature-based Coastal Protection compiles, synthesizes and interprets the current state of the knowledge on the science and practice of nature-based shoreline protection. This book will serve as a valuable reference to guide scientists, students, managers, planners, regulators, environmental and engineering consultants, and others engaged in the design and implementation of living shorelines. This volume provides a background and history of living shorelines, understandings on management, policy, and project designs, technical synthesis of the science related to living shorelines including insights from new studies, and the identification of research needs, lessons learned, and perspectives on future guidance. Makes recommendations on the correct usage of the term living shorelines Offers guidance for shoreline management in the future Includes lessons learned from the practice of shoreline restoration/conservation Synthesizes regional perspectives to identify strategies for the successful design and implementation of living shorelines Reviews specific design criteria for successful implementation of living shorelines Provides detailed discussions of social, regulatory, scientific and technical considerations to justify and design living shoreline projects International perspectives are presented from leading researchers and managers in the East, West and Gulf coasts of the United States, Europe, Canada, and Australia that are working on natural approaches to shoreline management. The broad geographic scope and interdisciplinary nature of contributing authors will help to facilitate dialogue and transfer knowledge among different disciplines and across different regions. This book provides coastal communities with the scientific foundation and practical guidance necessary to implement effective shoreline management that enhances ecosystem services and coastal resilience now and into the future.
