As more extreme storms and flooding are becoming a way of life, the vulnerability of marinas is no longer a distant concern— it's a pressing reality. This 3-hour pre-conference workshop offers a comprehensive exploration of strategies to protect infrastructure from the growing threats of environmental changes. After participating, attendees will understand flooding risks and vulnerability, marina vulnerability assessment, and mitigation strategies for marinas. The session will culminate in a panel discuss where attendees will hear from marina managers who have transformed their marinas.  Attendees will gain practical insights into resilient marina design and long-term planning, equipping them to address this critical threat facing marinas.
