Local ecological networks, with their set of hedges, woods, ditches, meadows, canals and water basins are indispensable elements for the ecological re-balancing of the territory, from multiple points of view, including mitigation and climatic compensation. In order to give impetus and concreteness to the project, as well as in view of the revision of the Ecological Network for the forthcoming new Masterplan PUG (2021), the action provides the permanent monitoring of biodiversity, with the use of indicators on the state of conservation, also preparatory to the contrast to invasive exotic animal and plant species throughout the public territory with sharing of regional, national and European alert systems.Pre-feasibility study status500001320092017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[11.619, 44.8357]}2019-10-16T18:33:19.143

Iponan River is one of two major rivers that run through Cagayan de Oro. Like its counterpart Cagayan River, Iponan River had seen its share of destruction and loss when it flooded riverine barangays in 2011 (Tropical Storm Sendong/International Name: Washi). On top of the disastrous impact of the storm, barangays along the Iponan River were then subjected to the absence of utility water.The identified project aims to address the water insufficiency of Cagayan de Oro barangays along the Iponan River through a holistic approach with a Ridge-to-Reef perspective.Pre-feasibility study status(Sub)national6759502015{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[124.632, 8.45423]}2019-10-16T18:33:19.143

The regulation allows development projects to meet a portion of stormwater retention requirement through Stormwater Retention Credits (SRC). SRC is an innovative open-market trading program where properties owners who have voluntarily installed green practices can sell credits to others. The District also incentivizes voluntarily stormwater capture practices through the RiverSmart Program which provides property owners with discounts and rebates to help defray costs of rain barrels or cisterns. DC Water is also implementing their Clean Rivers Project, which involves installation of green infrastructure and a 157 million gallon tunnel system which, when completed, will capture stormwater in our combined sewer system and will reduce the chance of flooding in the areas it serves from approximately 50 percent to 7 percent (equivalent to a 15-year storm) in any given year.2700000000Other: Water use fees are the primary funding source for the incentive programs & the Clean Rivers Projects.https://doee.dc.gov/src https://www.dcwater.com/cleanrivers7024552018{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-77.0369, 38.9072]}2019-10-16T18:33:19.143

Because NotifyLA uses the 911 database, only land-line numbers are automatically included in the system. In order to receive a notification via your cell phone, Voice over IP (VoIP) number or email, you must register those telephone numbers and/or e-mail address in NotifyLA. NotifyLA uses geomapping so alerts are targeted by geographic location. That means, alerts will only be sent to the subscribers in the area impacted by the emergency.Localhttps://emergency.lacity.org/notifyla40214882017{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-118.244, 34.0522]}2019-10-16T18:33:19.143

This will be challenging due to lack of funding for this issue, but it would help address a largely vulnerable area of the City. The City is also ensuring that funding can be invested for after-storm tree canopy improvement and coordination can exist to clear roads and sidewalks of debris.Pre-feasibility study statusNot applicable.1129062018{"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-80.0534, 26.7153]}2019-10-16T18:33:19.143
