Protecting
Homes and the Coastline
Length: 4 minutes
The Coastal Zone Management program oversees the delicate shoreline
of Lake Erie, which is constantly being worn away by the elements.
It also helps area homeowners protect their land from erosion. While
we can't control natural phenomena like erosion, we can control
how and where we live. Now, houses are required to be built far
from the shoreline. But for older houses, this program helps them
stay intact.
Produced by the Environmental Fund for Pennsylvania as part of
the GreenWorks for Pennsylvania Television show entitled, Erie
and Its Environment.
