The Natural Resources Workgroup will focus on identifying
important natural resource and environmental features that could
be impacted by sea level rise or other coastal hazards. Impacts
to natural resources are important to consider because they not
only jeopardize habitats and species, but they can also threaten
public health (e.g., water quality), various economic sectors
(e.g., agriculture, tourism and fishing), and quality of life
(e.g., access to natural landscapes and recreational
activities). This workgroup will examine issues of concern that
may include wetlands, agricultural areas, protected natural
areas, wildlife refuges, threatened and endangered species,
water bodies, cultural or historic sites, fisheries, shorelines
and more. Natural Resources Workgroup Meeting Notes & Documents
