The Romanian coast along the Black Sea is subject to erosion. Coastal erosion contributes to the loss of particularly valuable lands, loss which can affect coastal ecosystems and bring economic and social damage for such area. Therefore, Dobrogea Seaside Water Basin Administration (DSWBA), attached to the Romanian Waters National Administration (RWNA), define the Masterplan “Protection and Restoration of the Coastal Area”. The Mamaia area (Lot 2), is one of the 11 lots identified as part of the Reduction of Coastal Erosion Phase II (2014-2020) under this Master Plan.
