Abstract
Management plans are in preparation for many of England's estuaries. The paper outlines the background to the Mersey Estuary Plan, discusses its style and format, explains its approach to estuary resource issues and outlines policy responses in the areas of estuary dynamics, water quality and pollution control, biodiversity, and land use and development. The paper concludes by drawing lessons which may be of relevance elsewhere.
