TOWN OF ST. MICHAELS SEA LEVEL RISE STRATEGIES
St. Michaels, Maryland
Project Overview
Tourism and commercial fishing remain two of St. Michaels' primary economic drivers. Flooding and future sea level rise concerns led to an infrastructure study identifying viable, cost-efficient strategies to increase the town's resiliency. Consideration was given to both rainfall and tidal induced flooding, with evaluation of tide gates versus culverts, nature-based solutions, and reconstruction of low-lying streets.
