1 The Louisiana 2017 Coastal Master Plan: Climate Change and Sea Level Rise Planning in the International Context Dr. Michael K. Orbach Professor Emeritus of Marine Affairs and Policy Nicholas School of the Environment Duke University Middlebury Institute, Monterey November, 2016
2 Where people are going To cities To coasts
3 The Big Train Wreck Coastal Development Sea Level Rise
4 And -Of the thirty largest cities in the world, twenty of them are in coastal areas and therefore in some danger from global climate change and associated sea level rise -There are thousands of small cities, towns, villages and rural populations at risk -Others, even though they are not on the coast, are low-lying and susceptible to inundation -There are billions of hectares of natural infrastructure that will be threatened
5 This is a new challenge Never before in modern human history (with significant built environments) have humans been faced with a period of significant sea level rise
6
7 Mitigation or Adaptation? There is nothing that humans can and will likely do between now and 2100 that will significantly slow the rate of sea level rise between now and 2100

12 So it s like storm flooding, right? NO!!!!!!!!! Storms and their associated flooding come and go (although they will become more intense and frequent); Sea Level Rise is a permanent change of state it is here (in human terms) forever!!!

19 Louisiana s Comprehensive Master Plan for a Sustainable Coast. In December 2005, the Louisiana Legislature restructured the State s Wetland Conservation and Restoration Authority to form the Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA). Act 8 charged the new Authority with developing and implementing a comprehensive coastal protection plan, including both a Master Plan that would be revised every five years and an annual plan of action and expenditures to be submitted to the legislature every fiscal year for approval. Act 8 directed the CPRA to consider both hurricane protection and the protection, conservation, restoration and enhancement of coastal wetlands and barrier shorelines or reefs and further defined the coastal area as the Louisiana Coastal Zone and contiguous areas that are subject to storm or tidal surge.
20 The CPRA approach covers assets and economic activity at risk from land loss Stocks Flows Non-residential structures Residential structures Network infrastructure Establishments Employment Quantitative Damage Footprint of directly affected assets and businesses Incremental damage from selected storms Geographic Scope Coastal Louisiana Rest of Louisiana Rest of the United States Qualitative Risks Physical effects of land loss are uncertain

40 Good News, Bad News Good They are planning! They are using good science They are involving constituents and the public Bad They are not taking infrastructure into account They are not talking much about planned retreat They don t have enough money!
41 This is an especially difficult challenge because.. Although the future (rising sea levels) is clear, the timing is uncertain The time frame is beyond current political cycles We have never faced this challenge before We lack the law and policy tools Some people do not believe any of this!
42 My Conclusions: We will not defend all of our coastal areas No matter whether we defend or not, immediate planning should begin for 1) the provision for people and infrastructure on their new coastlines; 2) Provision for dealing with inundated, abandoned infrastructure; and Immediate planning should begin for provision of space for our new natural areas such as estuarine habitat in their new locations
43 Our old higher dikes approach is no longer sustainable, or affordable. We are learning to adapt, to live with water, and not always fight it.. That is why a new paradigm Living with Water -- infuses our policy and our public investments today. The new paradigm means, however, that we can t always fight the water. Instead, we need to accommodate water, and give it room.. Ambassador [From the Netherlands to the U.S.] Renée Jones- Bos, 2012
