Sea Level Rise, Tsunami Hazards & Erosion Resilience Survey

The City of Fort Bragg and Noyo Harbor District have partnered with California Sea Grant to develop the Noyo Harbor Blue Economy Visioning, Resiliency and Implementation (BEVRI) Plan. The BEVRI Plan is an opportunity to gather technical baseline information about the current environmental, economic, and social conditions of Noyo Harbor; develop a shared community vision for coastal resiliency; and identify next steps for implementation. Findings will inform updates to both the City of Fort Bragg and County of Mendocino’s Local Coastal Programs (LCP).

The Sea Level Rise Survey asks about your perceptions of sea level rise, personal experience with coastal flooding, planning and adaptation strategies, and preferred communication channels. The survey takes about 6 minutes to complete and all responses are anonymous. Thank you for your participation!
