As of December 30, 2018 98% of meters had been replaced. The new meters provide improved water data to the City and customers that allow for the City's water management and bill portal, Water Smart, to provide more useful water efficiency and usage related information to account holders. Increased and better resolution water consumption data can provide the City and account holders with the ability to curb and/or reduce water consumption usage during significant precipitation events when a combined sewage overflow is more likely and it becomes important for customers to "hold back" water from entering the combined system until the event has passed. | Finance secured | 1091627.62 | 1091627.62 | Local | https://www.cityofevanston.org/government/departments/public-works/water-meter-replacement-program | 75603 | 2015 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-87.6898, 42.0669]} | 2019-10-16T18:33:19.143 |

The County or its cities could require new development to build to a more flood-resistant standard, create space for temporary flood water storage through landscaping, change land use or zoning designations and encourage public-private investment in flood management infrastructure. These strategies may ensure sustained property values and the ability of the businesses in the community to function safely, and remain profitable.Broward County staff and community liaisons will interview business and property owners to collect data that describes the interdependence of various types of businesses. Data points include:• Types of Services• Value of Services• Total Assets• Flood Risk PlanningThe data collected will be used by a contracted economic consultant to develop a “relationship model” that represents the local economy. This model will be manipulated to test how flood conditions will affect certain components of the business community and suggest implications for how property values, employment availability, and services available will respond. This will be the first application of this type of inter-sector resilience effort.Comparing these results to future scenarios will help make the case for investing in resilience and highlight strategies that would be most beneficial to the local economy.As the region continues to engage the private sector as a potential partner in adaptation, this pilot study will provide an example for communities’ to evaluate options through a lens intended to sustain and promote the economy. Information gained from the study will be shared broadly with stakeholders across the region. | 1870000 | 2014 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[80.3659, 26.1901]} | 2019-10-16T18:33:19.143 | ||||||

These urban areas are in a state of environmental and social degradation and constitute an element of discomfort and damage both for the urban context and for the health of citizens. Often the property is not municipal and this requires a prior activation of dialogue and consultation with other institutions or private owners. Acting on these contexts through urban recovery programs will allow the implementation of specific interventions in the field of adaptation to climate change. Areas can be recovered through realization of green surfaces, useful to control the "heat island" effect, able to act as resilience systems ad sudden flood events (eg natural pools of water containment), as well as prevention of soil erosion and noise and pollution filters.The starting point is to survey the abandoned areas, associating them with a priority intervention system, defined on the basis of their insertion at the urban level (eg densely populated / built and exposed to the heat island effect) as well as to their state of maintenance and ease of intervention (eg type of property).The action includes: drawing up of a "Demolition Plan" crossing the data already present in the Valuation Plan prepared by the Municipality of Ferrara, with identification of priorities (possible collaboration with the University of Ferrara); identification of a scope for pilot project (eg former hospital) for European funding request; implementation on the pilot project of the "Environmental Quality Certificate", an instrument already in place in the Municipality of Ferrara but poorly implemented, to certify the successful and correct entry of elements of adaptation to climate change; activation of a permanent participation board for urban regeneration, open to involvement of citizenship, but primarily aimed at connecting public actors belonging to different offices / sectors. | Pre-feasibility study status | 132009 | 2017 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[11.619, 44.8357]} | 2019-10-16T18:33:19.143 | ||||

Não é difícil saber porque isso acontece.A RMSP está situada sobre um planalto com baixos declives e é talvez a área mais densamente ocupada no mundo. Ao longo do tempo essa ocupação foi feita de forma desordenada e desprovida de planejamento urbano. O processo de urbanização que ocorreu a partir dos anos 60 trouxe como conseqüência a impermeabilização do solo; todo espaço retirado pela urbanização, antes destinado ao armazenamento natural das águas, ou seja, as várzeas dos cursos d'água, foram substituídas por novas áreas inundáveis. Acrescenta-se a esse problema a prática de canalizações dos rios e córregos, muitas vezes de forma radical, alterando o comportamento das enchentes e não resolvendo o problema, uma vez que a cidade continua crescendo sem planejamento, exigindo cada vez mais medidas para disciplinar e conter as águas.Visando primordialmente o combate às enchentes na Região Metropolitana de São Paulo, através de uma abordagem integrada dos problemas em todas as principais sub-bacias da bacia hidrográfica do Alto Tietê, em 1998 foi elaborado o Plano Diretor de Macrodrenagem da bacia do alto Tietê, que busca complementar as necessárias obras de melhoria hidráulica dos rios Tietê e Tamanduateí com um conjunto de soluções modulares, por sub-bacias, que permitem a execução por etapas O Plano Diretor de Macrodrenagem visa, em síntese, diagnosticar os problemas existentes ou previstos no horizonte de projeto a determinar, do ponto de vista técnico-econômico e ambiental, as soluções mais interessantes. Em sua estruturação atual contempla soluções para as seguintes bacias:Bacia do Rio Tamanduateí, aqui incluídas as sub-bacias dos Ribeirões dos Meninos e Couros e do Córrego do Oratório; Bacia do Córrego Pirajuçara; Bacia do Rio Aricanduva e Calha do Rio Tietê; Bacia do Ribeirão Vermelho; Bacia do Médio Juqueri; Bacia do Rio Baquirivu.No Plano de Metas 2019-2020 O objetivo 9 é: Reduzir em 12,6% (2,77 km²) as áreas inundáveis, realizando um conjunto de intervenções e obras para controle de cheias nas bacias hidrográficas do município de São Paulo. O orçamento próprio previsto é de R$ 609,9 milhões e de R$ 378,5 milhões de outros recursos, envolvem obras de macrodrenagem nas seguintes Bacias:Bacia do Ribeirão Aricanduva; Riacho do Ipiranga; Bacia do Córrego Zavuvus; Córrego Tremembé; Córrego Paciência; Programa de Redução de Alagamentos; obras de macrodrenagem na Bacia do Córrego Uberaba; Bacia do Córrego Perus; Bacia do Córrego Mooca; Bacia do Córrego Freitas; Bacia do Córrego Mirassol; obras de macrodrenagem em parceria com o DAEE - Polder Vila Itaim.

Green infrastructure involves greening elements that support a city such as street trees, green walls and roofs, community gardens and Water Sensitive Urban Design. Green spaces in cities provide cooling through shading and enhanced evapotranspiration, reducing the heat island effect in cities. Urban green areas can also have positive effects for human health; flood prevention and climate change adaptation. The Green Infrastructure Guidelines highlight public spaces and greening approaches which include Living Architecture and Water Sensitive Urban Design working together to create a more sustainable city. The guidelines also highlight a best practice approach to greening the City of Adelaide which include: • Prioritising greening in the city through trees, street plantings, green roofs and walls, within Council's existing projects and asset renewal programs • Identifying opportunities to add greening to Council owned buildings as a series of demonstration projects, including funding and staging requirements • Foster and incentivising developers, business and community uptake of greening initiatives • Pilot the greening of a representative residential pocket of the city, with a view to learning lessons that can be applied more broadly across the city. For more information about greening in the City of Adelaide visit adelaidedesignmanual.com.au/design-toolkit/greening.Targets for increasing canopy cover in the CBD and North Adelaide to 25% and 40% respectively by 2040 (based on current levels of 14.3% and 28.2%). Our Strategic Commitment by 2020 was to increase street trees in built-up areas to 1,000, however in mid-2018 this was surpassed, and Council agreed to increase the target to 1,500. Green space and greenery in the public realm have increased by 26,666 square metres, with 73,334 square metres remaining to reach our strategic goal of 100,000 square metres.Council also approved the update to the Adelaide Design Manual which included a revised palette of street trees and understory plantings. Currently a Green City Implementation Plan is being developed to inform rolling three-year capital works program, with the intent of ensuring progressive improvements and prioritising tree planting projects in the city. The Green City Grant program ran in FY 2017/18 allocated $150,000 to 23 projects through the program, including window boxes on heritage listed buildings, small green walls in small food places and two significant green walls. | Feasibility finalized, and finance partially secured | 800000 | 800000 | Local | http://www.adelaidedesignmanual.com.au/design-toolkit/greening | 27247 | 2019 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[138.601, -34.9285]} | 2019-10-16T18:33:19.143 |

Inspite of adequaterainfall, most of it just flows away as surfacerunoff due to steep terrain causing soil erosion,landslides and floods. Reviving the dry seasondischarge of streams by taking up artificialrecharge works in their upper catchments toincrease their base-flow during the dry season hasbeen initiated. The upper catchments of criticalstreams in drought prone areas like Rolu, Seti,Reshi and Rohtak in south and West Sikkim havebeen developed to enhance the natural groundwater recharge. Climate Change is expected to intensify the precipitation patterns and the frequency of extreme weatherevents like cyclones, hailstorms, cloudbursts etc is expected to further rise in the future. These eventsresult in accelerated discharge owing to the steep terrain and convert the mountain streams into ragingtorrents during the monsoons. These torrents if not trained cause immense soil erosion, damage to farmer’sfields and landslides as well. Torrent training (jhora training) has been provided a renewed emphasis toensure that this flood water does not cause damage and is safely drained into the larger rivers. Fundsfrom the national flagship program – MGNREGA were used by the Rural Management and DevelopmentDepartment to fund these flood control works. Climate change has resulted in an increased frequency of extreme weather events which have startedmanifesting in the form of cloud bursts, hailstorms, landslides and cyclones. Temporary (katcha) housesare not only vulnerable to these extreme weather events but also susceptible to collapse during earthquakes.Hence, the rural housing program has been improved and integrated under the Chief Minister’s RuralHousing Mission with the aim to attain a “katcha (temporary) house free status” by 2013. This programwill ensure that the poor in mountain areas will have access to improved and safe housing, by providing afinancial grant of Rs 4 lakh in instalments in “owner driven” mode. Also, they will be able to utilize theirlife savings in educating their children, have access to better healthcare and livelihoods. | Feasibility undertaken | (Sub)national | http://www.sikkimforest.gov.in/climate-change-in-sikkim/22-Chapter_Climate%20Change%20Initiatives%20in%20Sikkim.pdf | 100286 | 2011 | 2019-10-16T18:33:19.143 | ||||
