StormSmart Coasts Daniella Hirschfeld (617) NOAA CSC Coastal Management Fellow Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management This presentation summarizes the contents of the StormSmart Coasts website ( and highlights the current implementation projects. For further information please refer to the website or contact the project manager Daniella Hirschfeld.

Overview StormSmart Coasts – The Basics Implementation – The Five Projects Transferability – Networks & Workshops The Future – StormSmart Coasts

Massachusetts is currently facing serious problems along its coastline. By addressing these concerns we will be able to make our coastal communities more resilient and thus more prepared for sea level rise.

StormSmar t Coasts

sea level rise/climate change flooding storms Goal: Help Communities To Better Manage And Cope With: erosion

Our website provides a single site for local officials working in coastal communities to find current and relevant resources.

Local NGOs But putting solutions on-line isn’t enough if nobody finds them CZM FEMA National NGOs NOAA StormSmart Coasts gathers the information locals need... Everybody has a website...

CZM NOAA Local NGOs FEMA National NGOs... and provides links so users can tap into outside resources We help everybody find resources

No Adverse Impacts (NAI) Hazard Identification Planning Regulations and Development Standards Infrastructure Education and Outreach Emergency Services Mitigation and Shore Protection

Options

Implementation – The Five Projects StormSmart Coasts

Boston Hull Duxbury Kingston & Plymouth Falmouth Oak Bluffs

Boston Sea Level Rise Overlay District Mapping Increased understanding of the impacts Urban building guidelines

Hull Improved understanding of the accuracy LIDAR data Visualization of Sea Level Rise Increasing the buy in of other boards Connect with Community Rating System Densely developed

Duxbury, Kingston & Plymouth Education and Outreach –No Adverse Impacts –Low Impact Development Barrier beach dynamics Cross town collaboration

Falmouth Multi-Hazard Mitigation Plan incorporating sea level rise Post disaster planning Sparsely developed

Oak Bluffs Model floodplain management by-law Incorporation of NAI into legal framework

Transferability – Networks & Workshops

Regional website Town pages Coastal advisory group

Transferability – Networks & Workshops Present at current meetings Host post project regional events

The Future – StormSmart Coasts

Hazard Areas Identified
