Abstract: Since 2022, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency has provided funding opportunities for local government units and tribal nations to assess vulnerabilities and begin planning for the effects of Minnesota?s changing climate through a planning grant program targeting stormwater, wastewater community service systems. This seminar will highlight 3 projects from the 2022 grant cycle that focus on stormwater and community resilience. These projects showcase different project objectives, technical methods, and strategies for engaging local communities in flood vulnerability assessment, prioritization, and mitigation planning efforts, and key considerations that stormwater managers in Minnesota and elsewhere need to address as we face the dual problem of aging infrastructure and changing climate.
