Compound Flooding Study Presentation - 5:30pm

Learn about ‘compound flooding risks,’ adaptation strategies

 

The public – local officials, residents, interested stakeholders – are invited to attend a presentation of the results of an analysis of Flagler County when it suffers “compound flooding risks.”

Compound flooding risks occur any time two or more flood-generating mechanisms – storm surge, high tides, heavy rain, elevated river flow – happen simultaneously or in quick succession resulting in more widespread flooding.

The Northeast Florida Regional Council (NEFRC) worked with Flagler County through a Florida Department of Environmental Protection resilience grant to conduct a study and develop a Flagler County Adaptation Plan to address the identified vulnerabilities.

NEFRC will make a presentation of the study, the draft adaptation plan, and maps that show the inundation risk.

The event highlights include:

• Presentation of the Compound Flooding Analysis results for Flagler County;
• Detailed flood risk maps showing high-impact areas;
• Overview of the Draft Adaptation Plan, including proposed resilience and mitigation measures;
• Opportunity for public feedback to help refine the plan before final adoption.
