This Manual seeks to provide the information that is required for successful rehabilitation and protection of coastal dunes. It describes the role of coastal dunes within the broad dynamics of the NSW coast and it reviews both the characteristics and some of the regional variability of NSW coastal dune environments. Most importantly it describes the techniques currently favoured in stabilising, revegetating and maintaining these sensitive environments.
