New Jersey recently enacted an Inland Flood Protection Rule to ensure that areas at most significant risk are better defined and that new and reconstructed assets in these areas are designed and constructed using the best available climate-informed precipitation data.


The NJCRC's Sept. 26 Technical Assistance Coffee Chat webinar included presentations on the rule by Rutgers University Assistant Extension Specialist in Climate Services James Shope and New Jersey State Floodplain Administrator Vincent Mazzei.
