Necessity for Increasing Coastal Resilience
- "In 2017, the United States was impacted by 16 separate billion-dollar weather and climate disaster events, resulting in a record $306.2 billion in damages. In addition, many coastal cities are experiencing high tide flooding 10 to 20 days or more each year, resulting in public safety and health risks, such as road closures, overwhelmed storm drains, and compromised infrastructure and water quality." - Excerpt from NOAA.
