Resilient Cape Cod: Project Overview

An easy-to-use interactive webpage was developed by Commission staff to provide the public with information on the Resilient Cape Cod project.

The Commission and its partners – The Association to Preserve Cape Cod, the Waquoit Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, and the Town of Barnstable – are developing a planning tool and public outreach program to research the environmental and socio-economic effects of local and regional coastal resiliency strategies.

The new webpage includes:

• Information on threats to Cape Cod: sea level rise, erosion, flooding and storm surge
• Case studies of vulnerable areas on Cape Cod
• Information on Adaptation Strategies
• Decision Support Tool: information on the tool being developed to assist in coastal management

The page also includes information on project partners, supporting agencies, project committees, and the stakeholder process.
