Central and Southern Florida Flood Resiliency Study
The South Florida Water Management District and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers are partnering to advance the Central and Southern Florida Flood Resiliency Study under Section 216 of the Flood Control Act of 1970. The C&SF Flood Resiliency Study will recommend flood risk management (FRM) projects to build flood resiliency, now and into the future, and reduce flood risks that affect population, property, and critical infrastructure in the communities served by the C&SF water management system within the lower southeast coast of Florida in Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade Counties. Read FAQs about how this study is integrated to the SFWMD Sea Level Rise and Flood Resiliency Plan and the Flood Protection Level of Service Program.
