Description:Statewide Planning Goal 18 focuses on conserving and protecting Oregon’s beach and dune resources, and on recognizing and reducing exposure to hazards in this dynamic environment. Goal 18, Implementation Requirement 5, limits the placement of beachfront protective structures to those areas where development existed prior to 1977. This policy effectively places a cap on the amount of ocean shore that may be hardened, and thus limits the cumulative impacts of such hardening. Shoreline armoring fixes the shoreline in place, traps sediment, and causes scouring and lowering of the beach profile. These actions can result over time in the loss of Oregon’s public beaches.
