Coastal communities are facing ongoing threats from coastal hazards, such as storms and flooding. These hazards have many effects, including flooded or damaged homes and buildings and erosion and loss of beaches, dunes, and coastal wetlands. Hurricane Sandy is a recent example. Scientists expect these threats to continue in the future.

There are many ways that coastal communities can respond to the risk of coastal storms and flooding, but all of these involve tradeoffs. This survey asks for your opinion about these tradeoffs. The goal of the survey is to identify the type of policies that would be supported by you and coastal residents. Your answers will be compiled with those of other respondents and sent to local officials to help them decide how to best protect your community.
