ADAPTATION PLANNING PROJECT
Adaption Planning Working Group
Meeting
January 7, 2015
• State Coastal Conservancy• Coastal Ecosystems Institute of Northern California• Humboldt Bay Harbor, Recreation, and Conservation District• Humboldt County Public Works Department• Northern Hydrology and Engineering• Trinity Associates
![Page 2: HUMBOLDT BAY SEA LEVEL RISE ADAPTATION PLANNING PROJECT Adaption Planning Working Group Meeting January 7, 2015 State Coastal Conservancy Coastal Ecosystems.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649ed05503460f94bddb8c/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
The goal of the project is to support informed decision-making and encourage unified,
consistent regional adaptation strategies to address the hazards associated with sea level rise
in the Humboldt Bay region.

• Appreciate all of the maps• Need a Bay-wide map to locate segments• Define adaptation option terms• Heavy on vulnerability portion which is focused and specific• Light on adaptation portion which is board and general• Need conceptual illustrations of adaptation options• Estimate inundation frequency and duration under each
scenario and planning horizon• Need qualitative estimates of costs• Need a table summarizing adaptation options, qualitative
costs, and out comes

Can agricultural lands and uses onHumboldt Bay adapt to sea level rise?

On Humboldt Bay the Most Vulnerable Areas to Sea Level Rise are:
Agricultural Lands&
Coastal Freshwater Wetlands

BASIC ADAPTATION PLANNING STRATEGY We cannot manage or protect the shoreline
parcel by parcel or jurisdiction by jurisdiction, we need to address entire hydrologic units and the entirety of Humboldt
Bay.

Humboldt BayDiked Agricultural Lands
Protect Critical Infrastructure & Utilities:
• Highway 101• City of Eureka Water Transmission Lines• PG&E Gas Transmission Lines• Sewer Lines• Electrical and Communications
![Page 40: HUMBOLDT BAY SEA LEVEL RISE ADAPTATION PLANNING PROJECT Adaption Planning Working Group Meeting January 7, 2015 State Coastal Conservancy Coastal Ecosystems.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649ed05503460f94bddb8c/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Conclusion
• Dikes on agricultural lands provide protection to critical non-agricultural assets
• Agricultural uses on diked lands will be limited by RSLR to possibly 2075 if adaptation measures are employed
• Partnerships will be required to finance implementation of adaptation measures
• Ultimately, Humboldt Bay will reclaim these diked agricultural lands
