Service Description: Coastal Zone Management sought to identify the capacity of Massachusetts coastal structures to resist major coastal storms and prevent storm damage. In working toward this goal, CZM initiated a program to perform an assessment of Commonwealth owned and/or maintained coastal structures. The first phase of this program was the performance of a demonstration project for coastal structures located on the South Shore. The demonstration project will identify existing structures, their general conditions, ability to provide coastal protection and the probable cost for repairs. The information collected and developed is incorporated into the MassGIS system to allow use for developing a 20 Year Coastal Infrastructure Plan. As this is a demonstration project, it will serve as the basis for development of a statewide inventory and assessment of all Commonwealth coastal structures and the needs for their maintenance and/or repair. Incorporated into this project will be the identification of issues and limitations of the investigation and assessment to achieve the overall goals and what should be included in future investigations/assessments of coastal structures for the other regions.

Description: The data set contains information on coastal structures for eight communities in Massachusetts. The communities are Duxbury, Hull, Hingham, Scituate, Plymouth, Kingston, Marshfield and Hingham. The structures were researched, located and inspected between July and October of 2006. The data includes structure location, ownership, type, material, height, length, condition, repair priority, elevation, FEMA Zone and comments made by the inspector. Also included are estimated repair costs. See http://www.mass.gov/eea/agencies/czm/program-areas/stormsmart-coasts/seawall-inventory/ for further information.
These spatial data were created for the Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management (CZM) for the Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA).
