Nova Scotia’s government is seeking feedback from citizens about the Coastal Protection Act’s regulations. This Act is intended to protect coastal ecosystems and to keep Nova Scotia safe in the face of coastal climate change by stopping inappropriate coastal development. Nova Scotians concerned about coastal development can now share their thoughts on proposed rules that will determine what can and cannot be built on the province’s vulnerable coastlines.
Submissions are open until September 30, 2021.
