Grays Bay flooding and sea level rise workshop announced

Over the past year, community members and local leaders came together three times to discuss flood risk & sea level rise resiliency in the Grays Bay area. Washington Sea Grant, Pacific Conservation District, and the Lower Columbia Estuary Partnership collected their input to identify community-determined approaches to address local challenges posed by flooding and sea level rise and to create a Resilience Strategy.

You are invited to review the Resilience Strategy, including the list of possible flooding and sea level rise resiliency projects developed during the three-part workshop series. There will be opportunities to provide feedback on the plan and suggested projects.

The review will be held Wednesday, June 5, 2024, 6:00-8:00pm at Rosburg Hall

Dinner and refreshments will be provided. Gifts from local vendors and a raffle ticket for a chance to win a door prize will be offered to all workshop participants. To encourage families to attend, a dedicated kids' drawing and activity table will be set up in the venue.

Please share this invitation with friends, neighbors, colleagues, and family. Attendance at a previous workshop in this series is not required, though you may want to arrive a few minutes early to review the relevant maps and materials that have been discussed so far.
