Area Management - Marine - Local Coastal Partnerships

The Scottish Coastal Forum was formed in 1996 to encourage debate at national level on coastal issues. Its members advise Marine Scotland, from an operational perspective, on the development of policy relating to marine planning and licensing within a sustainable marine environment. The Forum also provides a network for circulating information and best practice in coastal management amongst its own varied membership and the wider Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) community.

Scotland has 7 Local Coastal Partnerships -

• Coast Hebrides

• East Grampian Partnership

• Firth of Clyde Forum

• Forth Estuary Forum

• Moray Firth Partnership

• Solway Firth Partnership

• Tay Estuary Forum

Forth Estuary Forum - Extends from Fife Ness to Dunbar in a straight line and extends upstream to the tidal limit of the forth. (Amended to extend as far as the border with Scottish Borders council - followed the line used by Marine planning Zones - 2009) Argyll and Bute follows the Local Authority boundaries. (Removed in 2009) Firth of Clyde Forum - Provide a map showing the area (but goes from tidal weir in Glasgow City Centre to the North end of Loch Ryan) Solway Firth partnership - Meets Firth of Clyde Forum in the north (at Loch Ryan) roughly at Milleur Point and extends 3 nautical miles offshore. The southern boundary is at St Bees Head in Cumbria. Moray Firth Partnership - Extends from Duncansby Head in the North to Fraserburgh in the South.
