A Resilience Plan for
Tampa’s Stormwater System

Applied Sciences completed a sea-level rise vulnerability analysis of the City's stormwater system to investigate the effects of forecasted Sea Level Rise and Climate Change. The study focused on identifying and analyzing a sample of the affected high-priority stormwater outfalls and developing a resiliency strategy that identified project locations and costs. This project is part of a Florida Resilient Coastline Program (FRCP) grant to the City (R1916).
