5 Third highest tide on record (since 1935) for this gauge Only exceeded by tropical storm surges
6 Nuisance Floods by Year at Tybee Island, GA (Ft. Pulaski Tide Gauge) 20 NOAA nuisance flood threshold for Fort Pulaski: 9.2 feet above MLLW Data Source:

9 Assertion #2 Very few development decisions being made today in vulnerable coastal communities are considering the consequences in a worst-case scenario at 2100.

11 People displaced by sea level rise 7,000,000 Scenario: ~2 meters of sea level rise at ,000,000 5,000,000 4,000,000 3,000,000 Hernando County: 11,661 Hillsborough County: 137,749 Manatee County: Projected Populations88,880 Pasco County: 67,056 Pinellas County: Current Populations391,872 Sarasota County: 80,660 2,000,000 1,000,000 0
12 Assertion #2 Very few development decisions being made today in vulnerable coastal communities are considering the consequences in a worst-case scenario at This is understandable even appropriate given uncertainty about the future over such a long time-horizon.

15 People start to really take notice when roads start flooding on a sunny day.
16 Stormwater drainage issues Potential for saltwater corrosion and intrusion of underground pipes Ground floor flooding of houses and commercial buildings Saltwater flooding of yards and roads Flooding of ancillary structures (pavilions, sheds, etc.) Flooding of high value critical infrastructure such as wastewater facilities and electrical substations

22 Road flooding, 3 inches of sea level rise (2030 Low)
23 Road flooding, 7 inches of sea level rise (2030 High)
24 Almost all coastal communities in the coastal southeast, even those not yet seeing dramatic direct saltwater flooding from king tides, are already being impacted by various stormwater drainage issues and failures.

30 1) Systematically documenting stormwater drainage failures, such as street flooding 2) Digital mapping of stormwater infrastructure a) Outfall and infall points b) Pipe extents c) Invert elevations 3) Near-term retrofits duct tape adaptation a) Backflow preventers b) Decrease run-off coefficients, reduce impervious connectivity 4) Long-term retrofits a) Increase pipe sizes b) Green infrastructure c) Pumps More expensive further down the list! Long-term and dedicated funding mechanisms very much implied
31 What is an appropriate level of service for maintaining Tides stormwater Higher and than roads 1.08 under MHHW* sea at level Vacarise? Key Tide Gauge Cost of upgrades and maintenance for elevation of road bed, improved drainage, pumps, etc.? How much are citizens willing to pay for enhanced stormwater and road service? What thresholds may make a public road no longer viable from an economic and/or engineering perspective?
