    Developing a robust set of surf break assessment criteria: two case studies from New Zealand

    Peryman, P. Bailey
    Abstract
    In New Zealand, the emerging field of ‘surfing science’ has arisen alongside grassroot level responses to pressures on surf breaks. Surf breaks are unique and valuable components of our coastal environment. They are recognised in the New Zealand Coastal Policy Statement 2010 (NZCPS) which includes policies that directly apply or relate to surf break environments and their associated values. Recent developments in the coastal policy arena show movement towards more proactive forms of coastal management and planning. Within this is an extensive body of local and indigenous knowledge of social and ecological systems, although a robust framework is required for adopting it within formal governance arrangements. Recent studies conducted include a review of the process involved in developing surf break policy for the NZCPS. This led to a summer student research placement with two separate reports completed for both Bay of Plenty Regional and Gisborne District Councils (public release pending as of July 2011). One of the core objectives of these case studies was to develop a robust set of surf break assessment criteria in consultation with local experts. The outputs of these studies are discussed, developed and some conclusions are made on the implications for developing further policy and planning provisions.... [Show full abstract]
