Webinar: Protecting Coastal Resources and Structures, Part 1 – The Intersection of Nature, Science and Policy, January 27, 9 am EST
Event Description
The pressure to protect coastal properties from storm damage and erosion due to sea level rise and more intense and more frequent coastal storms is increasing. Property owners, from residential homeowners and municipalities to commercial developments and water-dependent industries, want to know what options are available to them and the efficacy of those options.
This EBC Ocean and Coastal Resources webinar will begin with a panel of state regulators discussing strategies for protecting coastal resources and structures that are compliant with their coastal regulatory programs. Speakers will discuss different options available based on various factors, such as the presence and condition of coastal resources, the nature of the property’s existing shoreline, and the use of the property. The panel will explore the appropriateness of options ranging from traditional coastal protection, including seawalls and revetments, to “soft” protective measures and living shorelines.
A robust panel discussion with the audience will conclude the webinar.
