NFWF Coastal Resilience Assessment: Savannah River Watershed

Watersheds in the Savannah River area are part of a national project to map "resilience hubs" and identify restoration projects that will increase both the resilience of human communities and fish and wildlife habitat to the effects of coastal and inland storms.

Join this group to get involved with the Savannah River Watershed resilience assessment. This site is a place to collect data and share information for this project.

Check out the fact sheet for more details about this project.

We're gathering data and input about the following information to make this assessment relevant and accurate for the Savannah River Watershed:

1. Key fish and wildlife species and other natural features for the Savannah River Watershed area that are vulnerable to coastal threats such as flooding, inundation, and storm surge.
2. Local GIS data sources for features that spatially represent the key fish and wildlife habitat mentioned above as well as any threats data available for the project footprint.
3. Locations for restoration or conservation projects that will increase resilience to coastal and inland storms for both human communities and wildlife. Projects could be at the identification, planning, or implementation stage.
