Crisfield Nature-Based Strategies Research: Final Top 6 Projects
This briefing to the Mayor of Crisfield will describe the top six implementable nature-based projects identified, based on storm attenuation modeling, to likely be able to provide coastal hazard reduction for Crisfield. Project scope was delineated by estimating project costs around $10 million, for which individual funding sources can be obtained by the City. Criteria for project selection include prioritization for potential protection for Crisfield, projects that are adaptive, independent, and additive, and qualitative cost-benefit maximization. This briefing also contains an example of the adaptation pathways approach to coastal community risk mitigation.
