Cornell Cooperative Extension (CCE), in partnership with the NYS DEC Hudson River Estuary Program and NY Water Resources Institute is conducting the Hudson Estuary Watershed Resiliency Project (HEWRP), an ongoing educational initiative with a focus on flood resiliency. The HEWRP is designed to help communities address the complex issues of flooding in a manner that protects the natural integrity of streams in the Hudson Estuary watershed. The purpose of this effort is to provide communities with tools to enhance their understanding of stream dynamics, floodplain function and watershed planning to reduce vulnerability to floods in an era of increasing heavy precipitation events. For CCE, one facet of this overall initiative is to provide assistance and support to culvert assessment and prioritization. This was done in 2016 through the Culvert Prioritization Project.
