Se limpiaron 60 kilómetros de arroyos, se realizaron 18 obras pluviales que disminuyeron el riesgo de inundaciones en diversas zonas de la ciudad, beneficiando a 81,120 habitantes.De igual forma se creó el programa de introducción de infraestructura de agua potable y alcantarillado en donde se realizaron acciones como: rehabilitación de redes de agua potable; instalación de líneas de conducción de agua potable; equipamiento de la planta potabilizadora “El Palote”; construcción de colectores de alcantarillado; ejecución del proyecto del colector pluvial 2a etapa de Ciudad Industrial. Los resultados y beneficios obtenidos fueron: 30 colonias en rehabilitación de la red de agua potable ,20 kilómetros de líneas de conducción de agua potable, 1 planta potabilizadora, 30 kilómetros de colectores de alcantarillado, 1 proyecto de colector pluvial. Todo esto mejora la calidad de la infraestructura, la eficiencia en el suministro del agua potable, la recolección de aguas residuales y el aprovechamiento de aguas superficiales, logrando la disminución de los riesgos naturales por inundación. | Finance secured | Public-private partnership | MXN Mexican Peso | 1411057947 | 0 | 0 | http://www.sapal.gob.mx/ https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1k7kWpwxpB-HfTwJcMXPL4neU-ZpIckjR https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1BFsssVk6wRxnEAODKP4hVk7PP0Tul-Bt https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1IC79fRpLsz0FqaA3EAo2srTN_E01pEjZ https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1U1MACkILjqHX_rOvKpDl1iBdUuEXtV1O | 1578626 | 2015 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-101.684, 21.1221]} | 2021-07-16T02:13:47.203 |

The Solar Savers Adelaide Program was designed to overcome some the ‘split incentive’ barriers between landlords and renters to installing Solar PV on rented properties. Under the Solar Savers Adelaide Program, City of Adelaide provided up front funding for the purchase and installation of ~2kW of solar photovoltaic (PV) energy systems on 40 eligible low-income and rental residential properties in 2017/18. CoA recovers the costs from participating property owners for facilitating the supply and installation of the solar PV systems through a quarterly separate rate charge over a 10-year period. | Finance secured | Local | AUD Australian Dollar | 415000 | 415000 | 415000 | https://yoursay.cityofadelaide.com.au/solarsavers | 24807 | 2018 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[138.601, -34.9285]} | 2021-07-16T02:13:47.203 |

Entenderemos el concepto de concientización, en este caso, como la toma de conciencia sobre las condiciones de riesgo y las capacidades para prepararnos para responder lo mejor posible. Otro producto importante sería la identificación de las propuestas a realizar para enfrentar los problemas detectados y aprovechar las oportunidades del entorno. Este paso es crucial en la evaluación de riesgos, ya que supone un paso de empoderamiento a la comunidad, con nueva y mejor información sobre su realidad, a partir de sus propias ideas, opiniones necesidades e intereses. Se trata de utilizar todos los espacios y canales de comunicación disponibles en la comunidad, tanto de las instituciones públicas, como del gobierno local, las escuelas públicas, el Centro de Salud, como en aquellos espacios donde la gente se encuentra cotidianamente.

De acuerdo a este estudio, el consumo del alumbrado público es de aproximadamente el 3% de la energía eléctrica del país. Aunque estos consumos son bajos en comparación con otros sectores, actuar sobre ellos supone un ejemplo para la ciudadanía en la mejora de la eficiencia energética por lo que el Gobierno de Colombia se ha propuesto reducir el consumo de energía eléctrica en el sector comercial, público y servicios un 2,7% para el año 20155.De acuerdo a la caracterización tecnológica de municipios realizada en dicho estudio, más de 70 % de las luminarias son de la tecnología de vapor de sodio de alta presión y presenta la siguiente distribución por potencia:En la misma línea, Findeter impulsó la “Línea Especial para Energías Renovables, Alumbrado e Iluminación” con un presupuesto de 100 mil millones de pesos y que apoya proyectos de modernización y expansión del servicio de alumbrado en el campo de la eficiencia energética.Por tanto, esta acción busca optimizar el uso del alumbrado público, en línea con las medidas que ya se están desarrollando en Colombia, y tiene como objetivo su sustitución progresiva, desde las actuales lámparas de vapor sodio hasta las de tecnología LED, con el fin de que alcance al 100% de las luminarias.Es notable la progresiva sustitución de las viejas luminarias, impulsada por la Alcaldía de Villavicencio e Iluminación Villavicencio S.A., la empresa concesionaria del servicio. De esta forma ha tenido lugar la modernización del servicio de alumbrado con modernas luminarias con tecnología LED en varios sectores de la ciudad.Entre los sectores en los que se ha actuado se encuentra el Buque y algunos parques como el de Esperanza y el de Villabolivar. Además se están instalando luminarias con este tipo de alumbrado en la avenida 40, en la parte alta del barrio 7 de Agosto y se prevé que dicha tecnología se amplíe a la avenida Alfonso López entre la Glorieta de la Grama y la intersección de la avenida a Puerto López, frente al Hipermercado Alkosto. | Finance secured | Other, please specify: Findeter | COP Colombian Peso | 100000000000 | 0 | http://www.villavicencio.gov.co/Paginas/default.aspx | 545302 | 2020 | 2021-07-16T02:13:47.203 | |||||

The City of Boynton Beach has adopted and currently enforces floodplain management regulations that meet or exceed the minimum standards and requirements for the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). The NFIP requirements can be found in Chapter 44 of the Code of Federal Regulations (44 CFR), which requires that all new construction and substantial improvements of residential structures located within the floodplain (e.g., Special Flood Hazard Area) shall be elevated to the base flood elevation (BFE), which is the point in elevation that surface water resulting from a flood has a one (1) percent chance of equaling or exceeding that level in any given year. The BFE is the national standard used by the NFIP and all federal agencies for the purposes of requiring the purchase of flood insurance and regulating new development. The City also has its own Flood Prevention Code, which can be found in the land development regulations (Part III, Chapter 4, Article X). While not required by the NFIP, each community is encouraged by FEMA to adopt higher regulatory standards, such as the freeboard requirement. Freeboard is simply requiring structures to be elevated above the BFE. Freeboard requirements for additions and/or substantial improvements require the existing building to be elevated to the base flood elevation only, which is still in compliance with 44 CFR. New building construction however, is required to be elevated at least one (1) foot above the BFE. To verify that a building has been properly elevated, the City of Boynton Beach requires the completion of an Elevation Certificate by a professional engineer or surveyor. | Finance secured | Local | USD US Dollar | 77696 | 2019 | {"type"=>"Point", "coordinates"=>[-80.216, 26.4986]} | 2021-07-16T02:13:47.203 | ||||||||
