Columbia Beach Community Flooding

This project implements a comprehensive, sustainable, and environmentally resilient upgrade of the stormwater conveyance system in the historically Black community of Columbia Beach, Maryland, and provides a mitigation model suitable for similar communities. The project prioritizes efficient mechanisms to remove stormwater from roads and community property, transfer stormwater and runoff to new or existing holding/infiltration devices, and improve water quality before discharge into the Chesapeake Bay.
