Shoreline Management Plans (SMPs) are being prepared for the southeast portion of PEI, extending from West River to Boughton, as well as on Lennox Island. SMPs are focused on areas that are located along the shoreline and include municipalities and unincorporated areas with shorelines in the study area.
Shoreline management plans (SMPs) are used to help residents and public officials make informed decisions about development along shorelines or coasts, showing where different types of adaptation work best. It is an approach that looks at the system as a whole and then applies it to the local scale. Shoreline management plans help to support local municipal and community resilience using approaches that can evolve as conditions change.
There will be several ways for the public to participate in the process this fall:
- Attend a Public Open Houses: September 23-25, 2025
- Complete the SMP survey (https://tinyurl.com/msvtnbee)
The open house sessions will be an opportunity to discuss shoreline management planning and the process for this project. The drop-in sessions will be used to introduce the process of shoreline management planning, to enable discussion with the project team, and to share posters and other information on shoreline management.
Please visit the project website at PEIshorelines.ca for more information.
