Program 3: Engineering

(Program Leader: Prof A Johnston/Dr T Hardy, JCU)

Objective

The improvement of engineering practices for the design, construction and operation of reef facilities and coastal development infrastructure. To meet this, a range of engineering tasks has been established to provide management agencies, private developers and engineering consultants with guidelines to improve safety, minimise impacts and understand the effects of various engineering developments in the Great Barrier Reef. Program leadership was taken up by Dr Tom Hardy in early 1997 following Prof Johnston's move to another position in South Australia.
