Enhancing Resiliency and mitigating vulnerability in Sarasota Manatee Region

Page 1

Purpose

Multi-County coastal MPO

High population density in Flood Zones

Tourism and Service Industries dominate

Continued widespread growth

Many critical facilities in high impact areas

2

Rationale behind the study

Promoting Resilient Operations for Transformative, Efficient, and Cost-Saving Transportation (PROTECT)

• Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC)

• Florida Resilient Coastlines Program (FRCP)

• Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) Grant Program

Miles Exposed to Combined Flood Hazards: 145

Hurricane Ian Initial Lessons Learned

• Causeways

• Inland flooding

• Detour routes

• Newer structures and housing survived

Why

• Provide an understanding of the system’s vulnerabilities

• Develop a prioritized list of assets that are at risk to extreme weather

• Make informed decisions about the costs & benefits of potential mitigation options

• Support making decisions on how to best prioritize solutions with limited resources

Collect data Assess vulnerability Assess risk Develop mitigation options Prioritize mitigation projects 10

• An overall vulnerability score is developed by weighting the three components

• Vulnerability scores reviewed to ensure scores reflect local conditions

Criticality (e.g., evacuation route)

Exposure (e.g., storm surge depth)

Adaptive Capacity (e.g., asset age)

Asset Type Indicator

Description

How

Asset Storm Surge

Road Elevation of Asset

Storm Surge

Nuisance Flooding

Wildfires

The higher the asset is, the less likely it would be inundated and damaged from storm surge.

Exposure Score

Bridge Bridge Height Bridges with less clearance above the waterway are more likely to experience storm surge heights that reach their deck.

Scour Rating

Bridges that have already been identified as having problems with scour are more likely to be damaged during storm surge events.

Nuisance Flooding

Elevation of Asset

Road

Proximity to Coast

Bridge Bridge Age

If an asset is located at a relatively low elevation compared to surrounding areas, water may tend to "pond" there, causing flooding during heavy precipitation events.

Areas near the coast, to where water drainage flows, could back up and flood sooner than the inland areas.

Older bridges may have been built to outdated design standards, rendering them more sensitive to precipitation events than bridges designed more recently.

Why 14
How

Why

• Risk considers the probability that an asset will experience a particular impact and the severity or consequence of the impact.

How

• Assessment will be used to develop a prioritized list of assets that are at risk to the hazards

Probability

• Likelihood of occurrence

Consequences

• Replacement costs

• System impacts (Detour length, delays)
