Increased rainfall volume and intensity projected across the Chesapeake Bay Watershed poses a risk to best management practices (BMPs) and stormwater conveyance systems designed to capture, treat and safely move water through the urban environment. This session will show attendees how local stormwater managers are thinking about climate resiliency considering the latest climate change forecasts and what they are telling us about risks to our current infrastructure. Then, it will review research on how climate change may affect the performance of our restoration practices, and present potential changes in stormwater design to make the next generation of stormwater practices more resilient.
