This Saturday, Angela Andersen will discuss flooding issues in correlation with LBI Resilient Project and Bay Island Project.

Time: 11:00am - 12:00pm (via Zoom only)

Angela Andersen is the Sustainability Director for Long Beach Township and the manager for LBT Marine Education Field Station in Holgate. This week's talk focuses on what coastal resilience is and how we can make our community better equipped for increased frequency of flooding and other hazardous weather conditions. Angela will discuss the interactive roadmap being developed for our collective community through Resilient LBI, a community-based environmentalism project managed by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection. This is an action plan rooted in providing nature-based solutions concepts for our community to adopt, such as living shorelines and improvements to infrastructure. Discussions will highlight community lead strategies for regional, town and property owner specific ideas and actions.
