Re: South Atlantic Regional Research on Coastal Community Resilience
Request for Proposals
Dear Review Committee Members:
On behalf of Monroe County, Florida, I am writing to express support from our County, located in the
beautiful Florida Keys, for the grant proposal submitted by the Carl Vinson Institute of Government at the
University of Georgia, in partnership with the University of North Carolina, the University of South
Carolina, and Stetson University and their project partners in response to the South Atlantic Regional
Research Coastal Community Resilience call for proposals.
This project will develop some much needed basic geographic information systems (GIS) data and
improved planning capabilities that will be used to increase our ability to improve local resilience to
environmental hazards and threats- The project will develop important data and analysis necessary for
our local officials to effectively and accurately assess the risks and vulnerabilities we face from a variety
of hazards including rising tides, storm surges, and other flooding.
Monroe County officials and staff are eager to participate in the Vulnerability, Consequences, and
Adaptation Planning Scenarios (VCAPS) process as well as identify local assets critical to our community's
resilience. Our role will also include participating in the development and dissemination of information
about flooding risks based on the improved hazards assessments developed as part of this project.
Should this project be funded, Monroe County is willing to assist by providing $30,000 as a cash match
contribution to the project. The Florida Keys are particularly vulnerable to the effects of sea level rise and
the associated flooding events, and thus we are interested in this opportunity to increase our ability to
respond to them.
The point persons for the community we are working with on this project are:

SEA GRANT STRATEGIC PLAN CLASSIFICATION: Hazard Resilience
OBJECTIVES: Our first objective is to extend and evaluate the effectiveness of using existing local
engagement tools, specifically the Vulnerability, Consequences, and Adaptation Planning Scenarios
( VCAPS), which we will use in conjunction with the NOAA OCM Sea Level Rise Viewer and CanVis
visualization tools in the diverse participating communities in the South Atlantic Region. Our second
objective is to develop more accurate, survey - quality local elevation data to develop more precise hazard
damage cost assessments. Our third objective is to utilize the data developed in this project, the hazard
assessments, and the community engagement results to inform the local hazard planning, policy, and legal
framework in order to build local government capacity to address coastal risks.
METHODOLOGY: Our methodology is designed use a participatory process to build local government
capacity in a four -state coastal region, to better visualize and understand local coastal hazard risks, and
analyze the legal and policy factors that impact adaptation responses. Our methodology includes four
interrelated components: data development and analysis, community engagement, law and policy
analysis, and regional assessment. The end products will be:
1. A participatory VCAPS assessment for each community;
2. HAZUS damage valuations and visualizations for participating communities;
3. Law and policy analysis of issues directly affecting local adaptation capabilities; and
4. Regional analysis comparing how the state and local regulatory environment impacts resilience
planning and adaptation.
RATIONALE: The methodology proposes to build local capacity by improving the basic information
that local governments need to accurately assess their risks and plan for resilience. By building this data
and legal and policy research through a collaborative and participatory process, we are also educating
local stakeholders about their hazards vulnerability and about resilience planning principles while
facilitating the development of specific adaptation strategies. This methodology is intended to be the
basis for a broad regional planning and outreach tool, and this project includes and evaluation of the
effectiveness of this methodology in diverse communities across the region.
Advancing Understanding of Risk: Increasing Accuracy of Hazard Damage Assessment Tools br
Improving Base Data and Analyzing Opportunities and Barriers for Use in Adaptation Planning
Revised Methodology
Our methodology is designed use a participatory process to build local government capacity in a four -state
coastal region, to better visualize and understand local coastal hazard risks, and analyze the legal and policy
factors that impact adaptation responses. Our methodology includes four interrelated components: data
development and analysis, community engagement, law and policy analysis, and regional assessment. The
end products will be:
1. A participatory VCAPS assessment for each community;
2. HAZUS damage valuations and visualizations for participating communities;
3. Law and policy analysis of issues directly affecting local adaptation capabilities; and
4. Regional analysis comparing how the state and local regulatory environment impacts resilience
planning and adaptation.
A. Community Engagement
Our first objective is to extend and evaluate the effectiveness of using existing local engagement tools,
specifically the Vulnerability, Consequences, and Adaptation Planning Scenarios ( VCAPS), which we will
use in conjunction with the NOAA OCM Sea Level Rise Viewer and CanVis visualization tools in the
diverse participating communities in the South Atlantic Region.
The data development, damage assessments, and adaptation discussions will be based upon a specific local
needs and priorities identified using the VCAPS methodology. Local government and community leaders
will identify critical infrastructure, public property, and important cultural and historic resources that are the
most important components for their disaster resilience and recovery. VCAPS sessions will be conducted
in all participating communities
B. Data Development and Analysis
Our second objective is to develop more accurate, survey - quality local elevation data to develop more
precise hazard damage cost assessments.
This project proposes to demonstrate a model for improving damage assessments of critical infrastructure
by: (1) digitizing building footprint in a GIS format for structures associated with critical infrastructure
identified through the VCAPS process where such data is not currently available, and (2) digitizing
elevation data contained in Elevation Certificate surveys for the locally identified critical infrastructure
elements to be connected with the new or existing building footprint data. Where Elevation Certificates are
not available, GPS elevation points will be collected. This data will be used to implement the FEMA
(2013) HAZUS M112.1 mode, the results of which will be greatly improved by the inclusion of this newly
developed data.
This data development process and HALOS modeling will be conducted in the Georgia, Florida, and South
Carolina communities. In North Carolina, where this data already exists through the [HRM work, the North
Carolina team, in partnership with FL co -PI Evans and GA Collaborator James Nolan, will obtain raw data
about Nags Head from the IHRM database and run HAZUS for Nags Head while working directly with the
town on how to best utilize this information for resilience planning. NC Collaborator Whitehead and GA
Collaborator Pippin with the assistance of associated graduate students will supplement this analysis with
additional mapping (if needed), as well as gathering information on additional adaptation options, mapping
damage assessments based on VCAPS- identified needs.
C. Law/Policy Analysis
Our third objective is to utilize the data developed in this project, the hazard assessments, and the
community engagement results to inform the local hazard planning, policy, and legal framework in order to
build local government capacity to address coastal risks. This will occur in two stages.
The first stage will be to map the existing legal and policy terrain in our four partner communities by
undertaking an analysis of the laws, regulations, and policies that affect a local government's ability to
undertake adaptation measures, with a specific focus each local government's legal duties to provide
infrastructure and emergency management services.
The second stage will consist of synthesizing the findings from the first two stages in order to compare the
significance of the variations in state and local law and policy among communities in the South Atlantic
region and analyzing how potential adaptation needs identified by the VCAPS process and in the HAZUS
modeling are affected by the legal and policy framework in which those adaptation measures must take
place.
The second phase of this law and policy analysis will form a substantive analysis of the regional
implications of the project's findings on regional resilience planning. By comparing variations among state
and local legal settings and examining how these settings impact the local planning and adaptation priorities
as well as potential responses to hazards this project will lay important ground work for understanding
future opportunities and barriers to regional resilience planning. To the extent that time and budgetary
constraint allow, this analysis will also include specific local issues affecting the resilience planning
capabilities of each community.
