Wrack trapped by the Northern Rock and southerly wind driven current.

‘Winter’ - storm period.Wrack is moved into and removed from beaches quickly by dynamic wind driven currents.

2. Cap the seagrass wrack with sand to alleviate the odour 3. Push wrack into the sea during periods of favourable

winds and seas,4. Remove the rock and reef adjacent to the marina

breakwater,5. Build the beach out to rock and reef adjacent to

breakwater,6. Change the breakwater configuration to create a

sheltered swimming beach to inside the new marina, and7. Change the breakwater configuration to extend the

marina to the south and create development opportunities that could fund the works.

Peak volume of wrack prior to 2015: 150,000 m3

Wrack Management target set by EPA: Less than 60,000 m3 by Dec. each year

45

Odour (H2S) target by Dep. Of Health: 24 hour average H2S concentrations adjacent to the Western beach

0.1 ppmhttps://www.transport.wa.gov.au/projects/port-geographe-reconfiguration.asp

46

Ball park costs for moving 10,000m³ of wrack:

1. Allow natural conditions to remove ($0)2. Pulling material to the back of the beach to dry

(~$20K+) this reduces odour once wrack dries butwrack remains on the beach

3. Pushing material into the sea (~$10K-$20K+) (mayor may not be successful ie material could bepushed straight back onto beach)

4. Bypassing material down drift (beyond the barrier) –pumping (~$300-$400K+)

5. Bypassing material down drift (beyond the barrier) –trucking (~$150-200K+)

• Sediment cell from Yanchep to Mallee Point. Note thatthere appears to be significant sediment transport pastthese boundaries.

• Geotechnical investigations have shown rock at varyinglevels on beach and dunes north of the Marina. Wouldprovide some protection (not completely consistent) and would slow and vary the erosion.

• May result in more traditional “perched beaches” inthe future. Majority not believed to act in this waycurrently.

Shoreline Response to Expansion Shoreline Response to Expansion Shoreline Response to Expansion Shoreline Response to Expansion

• Considered a number of factors in assessing theshoreline response:

• Existing trends in movement. For instance the shoreline north of the Boat Harbour already has no sediment feed,leading to recession. It will still have no feed following expansion, but the trend will shift slightly north.

• Equilibrium alignment of the shoreline north of theexpansion, leading to slight acceleration of erosion

• Potential wave shadowing north of the expansion

• Rock locations

• Recession due to SLR

• Future changes in movement and feeds

• Following estimate of shoreline response, considerationgiven to potential storm erosion and fluctuations

→ Sea breezes over summer can clear

• UWA (2014) numerically modelled a similar alignment• Snapshots presented show less accumulation

Recommendations for RefinementRecommendations for RefinementRecommendations for RefinementRecommendations for Refinement

• Shoreline Responses• Likely responses should be refined using numerical modelling,

calibrated to sediment budget

• Wrack Movements & Accumulation• Actual alignment should be numerically modelled to test

likely accumulations

• Needs to consider range of conditions and allow direct comparison with existing cases

• Needs to estimate periods of accumulation rather thansnapshots and assess all areas (south, marina, north)

• Increased monitoring of wrack accumulations – timing,conditions and quantities

Sand BypassingSand BypassingSand BypassingSand Bypassing

• Options developed to offset all erosion (original andharbour expansion) in Boat Harbour reserve

• Allowance for bypassing increased for conceptual andcost purposes

• Mobile pumping or trucking both considered feasiblesystems of sand bypassing

• Considered 2 options for sand bypassing:• Option 1 - Sand Bypassing

• Option 2 - Sand Bypassing with a Buried Seawall

• Pipeline route could be along breakwater or more directthrough land – would require consideration in planning

• Need to ensure plant access to extraction and disposalareas as well as nominated space for booster pump

Sand Bypassing ConsiderationsSand Bypassing ConsiderationsSand Bypassing ConsiderationsSand Bypassing Considerations

• Shoreline response to maintain HSD

• Would fluctuate between bypassing operations

• Allowed a one-off placement of sand to offset stormerosion during 50 year period (for costs)

• Wrack accumulations similar to existing north

• May reduce accumulations further to the south

• Would need to be managed immediately during / afterbypassing

• Beach and surfing amenity may be improved undermobile pumping option. Specific placement would needto be worked through in detailed design and operation.

• Groyne spacing and length based on desired shorelineposition and design estimates

• Construction proposed at the time of construction ofthe Harbour

• Shoreline response to north same as Managed Retreat

Key Recommendations from Part 3Key Recommendations from Part 3Key Recommendations from Part 3Key Recommendations from Part 3

• Sand Bypassing options recommended for progression

• Investigation of surfing amenity and potential reef lossshould be considered

• Location of pipe routes and booster pump location canbe determined in further design

• Continue camera monitoring of wrack and completejoint assessment of wrack accumulation with metoceanconditions
