MVCA is holding a special meeting on erosion in Goderich Meeting on lakeshore erosion set for Monday, Oct. 8 at Knox Church Shoreline and gully erosion has been a recurring problem along the Lake Huron waterfront for many years. The need to con- trol this erosion has been a more recent con- cern of local municipalities with increased cottage and retirement developments e* posed to this threat. Property owners, municipalities, and local resource management agencies have been faced with a problem; the most scenic and valuable real estate is also the most vulnerable to erosion. Past work by the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority on small gully control and lake shore manage- ment has shown how costly erosion control can be. It is not uncommon to spend thousands of dollars on design work and con- struction only to find that part of the pro- blem is caused by uncontrolled erosion on a neighbor's property. Coastal engineers have been working all surnaner on practical erosion control solu- tions. The key to successful control is the buildup of a stable beach. By carefully plac- ing and spacing groynes into the lake, pro- perty owners can economically build up a larger beach. Groynes can take many forms but most often consist of rock filled wire baskets. Police News and Views A public meeting will be held this Thanksgiving Monday at Knox Presbyterian Church in Goderich from 1 p.m. - 4:30 p.m. the Maitland Valley Con- servation Authority will be presenting the results of their erosion control investiga- tions. Property owners will be given a Resource Kit that will enable them to select the type of erosion control devices that will best work on their shoreline. The coastal engineers will be on hand to present details of their investigations, answer questions and explain the types of problems property owners may encounter when implementing recommended solutions.
