Compartment 9: North Corio Bay to Point Wilson

Beyond the Moorpanyal cliffs the ground elevation in this area is again very low, thus, inundation is likely to be the overriding hazard. Areas of foreshore are impacted in a 1% AEP event with 0.0 m SLR, these are mostly habitat areas. As sea-level rise increases, public infrastructure is also likely to be impacted, such as roads and storm water infrastructure.

The environmental value of this area is significant with large areas of rare habitat. Resilience studies and mapping of appropriate future habitat areas based on ground elevation and future inundation frequency should be undertaken.
