"content": "\u003cp>[dropcap]F[/dropcap]or Will Travis, it began 12 years ago, with an eye-opening article in the New Yorker magazine about rising seas and the widespread flooding and dislocation that would bring. As the executive director of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.bcdc.ca.gov/\">San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission\u003c/a>, the region’s coastal management agency, he needed to know more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Travis directed his staff to research the issue. In 2007 they handed him a report that foretold catastrophe. The agency produced maps with colorful, frightening flood projections and shared it with local policymakers. Trillions of dollars in public and private infrastructure were at risk, Travis told them. The time to prepare was now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet the region’s elected officials and Silicon Valley’s cluster of high-tech firms were deaf to the urgency of his message. No one was planning for higher seas. Their problems were more immediate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What I heard a lot was, ‘I’m trying to get my kid into a good college, my wife wants me to lose weight, the car transmission is making a funny noise and you want me to worry about sea level rise?’ ” Travis said. “ ‘Yeah, I’ll get to that when I prepare my earthquake supplies.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"Y5pvkTpE9EU2uaM9APJ4VWLkilTv77mS\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He crafted a policy response for his region anyway. In 2011, after four years of scientific analysis, intense bickering, and legal fights, the commission issued what Travis described as the nation’s first enforceable requirement that all shoreline development address the problem of rising seas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, with the breadth and scale of the problem known, the entire state is grappling with how to respond. Every agency and most municipalities are busily crafting plans and prioritizing projects, totaling up what will ultimately be hundreds of billions of dollars in costs to build barriers, restore wetlands and -- somehow -- raise or relocate roads, bridges, railroads and power plants away from the onrushing Pacific.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Global climate change is warming oceans and melting glaciers, raising seas higher and threatening the people and things that crowd California’s 1,200-mile coastline. Beaches are shrinking and bluffs are being pulverized. And the water’s rise, which had been somewhat steady in the past 100 years, is now accelerating alarmingly, 30 to 40 times faster than in the last century.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11541508\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11541508\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/WillTravis-800x525.jpg\" alt=\"Will Travis was one of the first Bay Area officials to take the threat of sea-level rise seriously.

Other places, miles from the ocean, will flood more regularly and more deeply, as warmer waters spawn more intense storms and the already swollen sea pushes farther onshore, unimpeded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This winter’s lashing storms that \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/06/02/into-the-big-surreal-36-hours-in-californias-isolated-lonely-island/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">took out parts of Highway 1\u003c/a> are an example of collateral damage: Rising seas are making flood-related events worse because there’s more water available to do damage. Flooding along roads is more frequent and lingers longer. Erosion from more powerful waves works away at bridge footings, undermining spans that are critical to transportation corridors, which themselves are strung along the California coast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"http://www.opc.ca.gov/webmaster/ftp/pdf/docs/rising-seas-in-california-an-update-on-sea-level-rise-science.pdf\">report\u003c/a> by the Ocean Protection Council, the state agency that coordinates the government’s coastal programs, was released in April with the most dire projections yet: The Pacific could rise as much as 10 feet in California in the next 80 years, covering up 800 feet of existing beach and taking out anything in its path.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Preparing for this eventuality has been declared a top priority in California. By calling for extensive scientific studies and projections, the state has thrown its full power behind the problem. But its power is not absolute. Even though the effects of rising water will be felt comprehensively, bridging public and private property and interests, some of the state’s jurisdiction stops at local borders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"dGko5C5Qxmf0kg2hTKHhouPPx5bYAMAI\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State planning began in 2008 with an \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/news.php?id=11036\">executive order\u003c/a> from then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. That was followed by Gov. Jerry Brown’s 2010 requirement that state agencies include an adaptation strategy in all planning and permitting documents. Most are still refining those plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The beleaguered Department of Transportation has inventoried its holdings, identified which highways will be moved back from the coast and which low-lying roads must be elevated. Highway 1, the meandering, coast-hugging byway famed more for windshield tourism than modern transportation, has been clawed at by erosion and appears often on the state’s flood maps. A section of the roadway at Gleason’s Beach in Sonoma County will be pushed back from the shore some 400 feet. Approvals for the project are expected next year.\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Similar ground-level planning is under way in other agencies. The parks department, for instance, is considering relocating parking lots and restrooms away from the beach up and down the state -- although in some areas there is no room to move facilities, even if the agency could afford to do it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Coastal Commission has assisted California’s 15 coastal counties in preparing \u003ca href=\"https://www.coastal.ca.gov/lcp/grants/\">vulnerability assessments\u003c/a>, which identify structures to be moved and areas where it’s too dangerous to build.
