Coastal Community information and participation

In view of the expected sea level rise, and therefore to most severe high-tide conditions and storm surge, low-lying coastal communities are exposed to 
an increasing flooding hazard.

Additional hazard arises from reduced effectiveness of gravity-based drainage systems to drain rainwater during heavy rain events.

As a conclusion, and increasing rate of flooding events is expected.

It is important that the community is:

  • Informed on the risks
  • Promptly alerted in case of risks
