This is also known as red-lining, and is a device used by planners to divide stretches of coast into land use zones. Red-lining identifies those zones at risk to erosion where the costs of protection exceed the possible benefits. Decisions are then made as to which areas need protecting, and zones that are decided to not, are denied planning permission for anything along the coast that may protect the coast.
