Management

Artificial  drainage channel cut as part of salt marsh creation at TollesburyHabitat management ensures the full integration of natural and man-made habitats on the coast to the ultimate benefit of all involved in the coastal zone. It can make a major contribution to reconciling conflicting interests in the coastal zone.

LAB Coastal can provide management advice and programmes for a wide range of natural habitats. The company also participates actively in habitat creation schemes and this experience is also at the disposal of clients. In addition advice is available on low cost methods of erosion control for coastal habitats using natural vegetation which can often provide an acceptable substitute for man-made sea defence works.
