CLIMATE RESILIENCY Sample Clauses

CLIMATE RESILIENCY. Changing climatic and sea level conditions may alter the Bay ecosystem and human activities, requiring adjustment to policies, programs and projects to successfully achieve our restoration and protection goals for the Chesapeake Bay and its watershed. This challenge requires careful monitoring and assessment of these impacts and application of this knowledge to policies, programs and projects.

CLIMATE RESILIENCY. Goal: Increase the resiliency of the Chesapeake Bay watershed, including its living resources, habitats, public infrastructure and communities, to withstand adverse impacts from changing environmental and climate conditions. Progress: A formal indicator of progress for climate adaption and climate monitoring and assessment is under development. Implementing these conservation practices: • Urban Forest Buffers • Forest Conservation Will also benefit these outcomes! • Climate adaption • Energy efficiency • Flood risk mitigation What should I know about climate resiliency? • Addressing climate impacts in conjunction with ongoing restoration efforts will prepare your community for greater variability and can help achieve cost savings and reduce risks. • Considering future impacts during the planning, siting, design and implementation of conservation practices can help to reduce the vulnerability of a project to fail. • Assessing climate impacts at the initial stage of watershed implementation planning will increase effectiveness, decrease maintenance costs and contribute toward meeting pollution reduction goals.

CLIMATE RESILIENCY. HSMCC acknowledges that, per COMAR 27.02.05.02A(2), State Agencies are required to consult with the Commission as soon as practicable in the project planning process to assess climate resilient practices that address coastal hazards, extreme weather events, sea level rise, and other impacts. HSMCC will use the site-wide climate resiliency analysis in Attachment 2: Site-Wide Climate Resiliency Assessment to Exhibit A of this MOU to determine whether a proposed project is located within a vulnerable area. If a Category II project is located in a vulnerable area, HSMCC will follow the process/procedures outlined in Attachment 2. Additionally, HSMCC reviews all applicable capital projects in accordance with the Coast Smart Construction Program guidance, as amended, to ensure avoidance and minimization of impacts to HSMCC projects in vulnerable locations.

CLIMATE RESILIENCY. Climate change is increasingly impacting the state’s and the region’s water resources and watersheds, as evidenced by greater weather extremes, changes in rainfall and runoff patterns, sea level rise, wildfire intensity, and impacts related to water resources and watersheds. Multiple state and federal programs provide guidance, technical support, planning and assessment tools, and/or funding to public agencies and organizations to improve local adaptation and resiliency to climate change impacts. Municipalities (County and cities), agencies and organizations in Santa Cruz County have conducted extensive planning to respond to climate change. Multiple local plans document the vulnerability, impacts, adaptations, mitigations and/or responses (e.g., municipal Climate Action Plans; County Climate Action and Adaptation Plan (CAAP); IRWM Plan; Groundwater Sustainability Plans; other). As noted by DWR, as the impacts of climate change intensify, local water managers will need better tools to identify the adaptation strategies for their watersheds and diverse hydrology to make more-informed infrastructure investment decisions. Two steps identified by DWR to fulfill key the goals of the Governor's Water Resilience Portfolio are:

CLIMATE RESILIENCY. Increase the resiliency of the Chesapeake Bay watershed, including its living resources, habitats, public infrastructure and communities, to withstand adverse impacts from changing environmental and climate conditions. Monitoring and Assessment Outcome: Continually monitor and assess the trends and likely impacts of changing climatic and sea level conditions on the Chesapeake Bay ecosystem, including the effectiveness of restoration and protection policies, programs and projects. Learn more about this outcome. Adaptation Outcome: Continually pursue, design, and construct restoration and protection projects to enhance the resiliency of Bay and aquatic ecosystems from the impacts of coastal erosion, coastal flooding, more intense and more frequent storms and sea-level rise.

CLIMATE RESILIENCY a. Dry floodproofing using watertight xxxxxxx for windows and doors and use of sealants and membranes on the exterior of a federal facility. If the federal facility is a historic property, materials consistent with the historic context that do not change the historic design drastically, permanently change the appearance of the facility or damage the historic character of the historic property, or appear or reduce evidence of workmanship will be prioritized.
