The National Association of Regulatory Utility Commissioners (NARUC) Presents Resilience for Regulators: Flooding Mitigation Strategies Webinar
As extreme weather events become more frequent and severe, flooding in coastal areas has become a growing concern. With high winds pushing a wall of water from the ocean to land, vulnerable areas with poor drainage are at risk of extensive damage, overwhelming the local storm water drainage capacity of densely populated areas. The effects of flooding on critical infrastructure can upend reliability and cause costly repairs. To address these risks, Resilience for Regulators: Flooding Mitigation Strategies is hosting a webinar on April 20, 2023, at 1 P.M. ET.
The webinar will focus on the increased flooding vulnerabilities brought about by climate change and mitigation strategies to address those risks. Experts will explore how investor-owned utilities and state policies are considering updated climate mitigation strategies, informed by climate modeling analysis or innovative technologies, that can be beneficial to address this specific risk. Attendees will also learn about different regulatory mechanisms that commissions may consider implementing as an incentive to reduce flooding risk as well as how public utility commissions are assessing climate vulnerabilities in regulated utility proposals.
The webinar will be moderated by Honorable Commissioner Kemerait, North Carolina Utilities Commission, with panelists including Marissa Ramos, Public Utilities Supervisor, Florida Public Service Commission, and Dean Taklif, Engineering Supervisor – Division of Energy, New Jersey Board of Public Utilities.
