Regional Planning of Nature-Based Strategies for Coastal Hazard Reduction for Crisfield, MD (Technical Working Group Meeting #8)
Final, implementable nature-based strategy (NBS) projects for coastal resilience in Crisfield, MD will be presented at this eighth meeting of the Crisfield NBS Technical Working Group. These projects are scoped using the results of storm attenuation modeling to identify approximately $10 million scale marsh, dune, living breakwater, or oyster reef on-the-ground footprints that ranked highest in terms of prioritization for Crisfield protection, implementability ("adaptive, independent, and additive"), and benefit-cost. Rationale for selecting projects is explained, as well as limitations and next steps.
