Comprehensive Evaluation of Projects with Respect to Sea-Level Change

Benefits of the Comprehensive Evaluation of Projects with Respect to Climate Change effort will include:

Providing assistance in evaluating robustness of projects to potential Sea Level Change (as part of a nationwide screening and prioritization process to identify projects that need to take Sea Level Change into consideration right away, as well as those that can take longer)
Identification and capture of some of the information about each project that is needed to perform a more detailed project-scale evaluation and that will assist the districts in performing more detailed project-scale evaluations according to the prioritization process
Providing to USACE districts and divisions the ability to communicate with other Federal and state agencies as well as local sponsors about projected Sea Level Change impacts
