Description | The purpose of this study is to share lessons learned and case studies from communities in Washington that have taken steps to include sea level rise considerations in Shoreline Master Programs (SMPs). The study identifies success strategies, challenges, needs, and opportunities for local governments. It is intended to foster knowledge-sharing between jurisdictions and convey experiences from local governments that are planning for sea level rise within SMPs and across planning jurisdictions and authorities. |
