State-of-the-Practice Climate Change Adaptation Activities for California MPOs and RTPAsAppendixFigure 1.FHWA Pilot Climate Change Conceptual Risk Assessment ModelFHWA selected five pilots to implement and provide feedback on the conceptualrisk assessment model:Metropolitan Transportation Commission in the San Francisco Bay Area;New Jersey DOT and North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority;Virginia DOT;Washington State DOT; andOahu Metropolitan Planning Organization.The pilot programs, which began early in 2011, are in progress at the time ofwriting, but will be completed for delivery to FHWA at end of November 2011.Representatives from the pilot agencies have met twice to exchange results anddiscuss challenges in workshops held in New Jersey and Washington State, andalso participate in frequent conference calls to discuss progress. Feedback andlessons learned will be incorporated into a revised version of the conceptualmodel.New York Panel on Climate Change Adaptation AssessmentIn 2010, the New York Panel on Climate Change (NPCC) designed a frameworkfor climate change adaptation assessment that can be used in any urban area,with region-specific adjustments related to climate risk information, criticalB-2 Cambridge Systematics, Inc.
State-of-the-Practice Climate Change Adaptation Activities for California MPOs and RTPAsAppendixinfrastructure, and protection levels. The Adaption Assessment Guidebookincludes an eight step process to inventory at-risk infrastructure and developadaptation strategies to address risks (Figure 2). These steps are designed to beincorporated into risk management, maintenance and operations, and capitalplanning processes of agencies.1. Identify current and future climate hazards2. Conduct inventory of infrastructure and assets3. Characterize risk of climate change on infrastructure4. Develop initial adaptation strategies5. Identify opportunities for coordination6. Link strategies to capital and rehabilitation cycles7. Prepare and implement adaptation plans8.
