Stormwater and floodplain managers and land use planners in coastal communities can use these tools to determine how their stormwater systems might be affected by coastal flooding. 

Understand - access engaging animations and background information on events that can cause coastal flooding. Learn how flooding can affect stormwater systems.

Assess - enter just four pieces of information for your situation to generate a report on current and future flooding impacts. The report will include prompts to help you communicate the big picture of coastal flooding to your community.

Analyze -  watch a 3-minute video overview, then work through a guided process to determine how different combinations of coastal flooding conditions might affect your system. 

Take Action - get guidance for on-the-ground actions you can integrate into existing planning processes to extend the service life of your stormwater management system. Learn about policy options and some innovative funding approaches.
