Resilient Shorelines Committee

Committee Overview

Building a More Resilient Bay Shoreline

The Resilient Shorelines Committee supports policies and partnerships that strengthen the Bay Area’s shorelines, infrastructure, and communities. Its work centers on local and regional planning to advance climate adaptation and resilient transportation along the waterfront.

Through BPC, committee members engage on the planning, funding, permitting, and implementation of shoreline projects across the region. The committee brings together public and private-sector perspectives to identify barriers, advance coordinated approaches, and support projects that protect shoreline assets while strengthening the Bay Area’s long-term resilience.
