BCDC's Adapting to Rising Tides Program developed data to better understand community vulnerability to current and future flooding due to sea level rise and storms. BCDC’s community vulnerability mapping is intended to support shoreline adaptation planning and be used by the public and project applicants to help implement BCDC’s Environmental Justice and Social Equity Bay Plan policies. To facilitate the implementation of these new policies, BCDC developed resources to support project applicants, BCDC staff, and interested stakeholders, such as residents and community-based organizations.
