Dune works funded at Umina and Pearl Beach
Central Coast Council is expected to undertake dune stabilisation and restoration works at Pearl Beach and Umina Beach after a successful application for funding.
Parliamentary Secretary for the Central Coast Mr Adam Crouch said the funding boost would enable Council to carry out regeneration and dune stabilisation activities, as well as targeted weed management along the coastline.
"Revegetating dunes is a simple but effective way of retaining sand on our beaches and reducing the impacts of coastal erosion," he said.
"Council submitted a compliant application through the Coastal and Estuary Grant Program, and the NSW Government is pleased to provide this funding."
