2011 CBAD 478 Rotary Cove Beach: Practice Case Analysis Rotary Cove Beach‚ of Goderich‚ Ontario‚ is troubled due to not having direct revenue streams‚ which in turn causes the beach to lose money on a yearly basis. The YMCA acquired the Cove’s operations in 2003.

erosion. However‚ a seawall may not protect a coast from erosion in the long run. As waves break against the seawall‚ the energy from the waves is redirected downwards‚ to the base of the seawall‚ resulting in a strong backwash. The backwash erodes the beach beneath and wears away the base of the seawall‚ causing it to weaken and eventually collapse. Hence seawalls have to be carefully maintained. It is also expensive to build seawalls. One example is the seawall at Galveston‚ Texas‚ USA. It was built

depending upon the frequency of storms. Eventually‚ a beach erodes because the supply of sand to the beach cannot keep up with the loss of sand to the sea. The Sand dunes and vegetation help to hold the sand in place when wind or water tries to erode it away. The environment can be affected by erosion in several ways. First and the most obvious‚ houses that are built along the shore are at risk of being washed away if more sand is being removed from the beach in the winter‚ and not enough sand is returned
