Planning and approvals have been granted to prevent historical debris from washing into the sea.
Council leader Glen Sanderson said: "Not only are we tackling the contaminated land, we also know how unsightly these historic waste deposits washing onto the beach are, and we do pride ourselves on our beautiful beaches - so improving the general environment here is very important to us.
He added funding arrangements were also being finalised with the Coal Authority over the works needed on their land to the north of the Lyneburn.Unsightly waste has been an issue on the stretch of coast for years From April, excavation work will begin at Lynemouth which will see the separation of waste materials for disposal.This autumn the clearing of vegetation will begin to stop lizards and nesting birds settling on the site.Council teams will continue weekly visits to monitor and remove material from the beach.
Local ward county councillors Scott Dickinson and Liz Dunn said: "We remain optimistic, although we recognise local people are feeling like this has stalled. "Delays outside the council's control we can accept but anything else will be challenged. It's an issue that must be tackled - which it seems we all recognise."Follow BBC North East & Cumbria on
