Whatcom County is holding two information sessions in the next two weeks on future shoreline flood risk and ways to adapt. The first meeting will be a countywide online workshop, while the second will be held in Birch Bay and focus specifically on flooding impacts to that community.
The sessions are part of the county’s future shorelines project that is planning how to prepare for the next 50 years of potential flooding caused by rising sea levels and larger storms.
The countywide, online meeting will be held 5:30-6:30 p.m. Monday, April 28 via Zoom. Registration is available at bit.ly/4cTvuSv.
The Birch Bay workshop will be held 5:30-7:30 p.m. Tuesday, May 6 at North Bay Community Church, 4895 Birch Bay-Lynden Road. To RSVP for the meeting, visit bit.ly/4jiSDQD.
