weather events.
2.Recognize opportunities for economic, recreational and
infrastructure development in at risk areas.
3.Be able to establish site selection and design criteria
for sustainable, resilient coastal development.

COURSE DESCRIPTION
The Houston-Galveston region is uniquely susceptible to the risk of hurricane related tidal surge and rainwater flooding. Repeated hurricanes and tropical storms have devastated this part of the Gulf Coast and yet a substantial portion of the region's diverse and rapidly growing population is living inside potential tidal surge inundation areas. The vast industrial infrastructure of the Houston Ship Channel, the largest collection of refining and petrochemical storage facilities and infrastructure in the nation is also at risk of catastrophic flooding. Based on analyses undertaken by the SSPEED Center, this presentation will describe the specific risks faced by individual districts and local communities and proposals for a layered system of coastal protection. These proposals include structural and non-structural alternatives.
