Join the Coastal Hazards of Superior (CHAOS) team for a free, virtual event that will focus on coastal zoning and regulations and help participants go above and beyond the code for a more resilient coast. Selecting appropriate resilience strategies for the shoreline, going beyond minimum code requirements, and working with contractors are a few of the topics that will be covered.
The Coastal Hazards of Superior (CHAOS) is a Community of Practice (CoP) focusing on the Minnesota and Wisconsin coasts of western Lake Superior. CHAOS is a platform for engaging local community leaders, managers, researchers, and communicators with a shared concern about coastal hazards and their impacts.
