Lagoon added to plan

The lagoon at Pearl Beach will be added to the Coastal Lagoons Management Plan.

Dr Peter Freewater has told the coastal and estuary management advisory committee of Gosford Council, that he intended to expand the scope of the study to include "Gosford's forgotten coastal lagoon, Pearl Beach Beach, which is suffering similar degradation to the other lagoons".

Cr Terri Latella moved a motion that the Pearl Beach Lagoon be included in the future Coastal Lagoons Management Plan, which was seconded by Department of Natural Resources officer Mr Neil Kelleher.
