Some \u00a37-10 million will be required in total over the coming years for total upgrading of the walls, some of which will come from Government funding, some from enabling development and the remainder from appeals, donations and applications to charity and statutory sources.<\/p>\n<p>Sir Edward Greenwell, Bt., Chairman of the Alde and Ore Partnership said \u201cthis is the first step to endorsement by all the statutory bodies and a great boost to all those who have worked so hard over the last few years ensuring the preservation of the Alde and Ore Estuary as we know it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Estuary Plan will be considered by the Suffolk Coastal Forum on 12th April, the Environment Agency\u2019s Regional Flood and Coastal Committee on 15th April and SCDC on the 3rd May who will give the final endorsement.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Amanda Bettinson<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Partnership Secretary, Alde and Ore Estuary Partnership<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PRESS RELEASE 22ND MARCH 2016 At the cabinet meeting on 22nd March in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk County Council voted unanimously to endorse the Alde and Ore Estuary Plan for the strategic management of the flood defences in the estuary.
