| The
Western Coastal Board (WCB) oversees strategic coastal and marine
planning issues in Victoria's Western Coastal Region which extends
from Breamlea (near Torquay) to the South Australia border. The
region includes the municipalities of Surf Coast, Colac-Otway, Corangamite,
Moyne and Glenelg, and the City of Warrnambool. The coastal sections
of the Corangamite and Glenelg Hopkins Catchment Management Authority
regions are also included.
Victoria's
western coastline is world-famous and includes well-known destinations
such as the Great Ocean Road, the Twelve Apostles and Bells Beach.
The increasing popularity of the Victorian coast has seen significant
increases in both resident and holiday populations of towns, with
many people becoming aware of the special values of the western
coastal region.
The
Western Coastal Board's role is to champion the ecologically sustainable
development of South West Victoria's coastal and marine areas.
It achieves this through being a:
· Strategic Planner
· Educator and Advocate
· Partner and Facilitator
· Coastal Adviser and Expert
