8           Conclusion
A detailed coastal engineering assessment has been undertaken to assess the vulnerability to erosion of
the beach adjacent to 66 Seaview Terrace, Sunshine Beach, Noosa Shire. The methodology adopted for
this report is based on best practice and is appropriate for risk assessment in relation to the proposed
development and the coastal hazard associated with beach erosion for the section of beach in the vicinity
of 66 Seaview Terrace, Sunshine Beach.

This assessment has found that the proposed house and pool are unlikely to be subject to erosion from
the sea during the expected asset lifespan (i.e., 60 years for a residential house). The assessment also
found that the proposed development will not impact on the future coastal management option for this
section of Sunshine Beach.

To accommodate future climate conditions, it is recommended that a site-specific slope stability
assessment be undertaken to inform the design of foundations of the house to mitigate impacts from
beach erosion associated with future climate conditions as presented in Figure 17.

Construction of the proposed house at 66 Seaview Terrace, Sunshine Beach as shown in Appendix A,
with appropriate foundation design, would not adversely impact coastal processes and would not affect
the future coastal management options for this section of Sunshine Beach.
