Support and monitor ongoing collection and analysis of sea-level rise, storm surge, and tidal data by existing institutions, including, but not limited to, FEMA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Support research and analysis of saltwater intrusion and degraded water quality in the Sacramento River, as well as in surrounding freshwater inlets and wells, as a result of sea-level rise.
Benefits: Gathering information on sea-level rise effects on Sacramento County (e.g., saltwater intrusion) would help the County and local water districts prepare for potentially more adverse hydrologic and water quality conditions.
Timeframe: Ongoing
