Newport News Interim Local Resilience Plan
Watershed Management Technical Memorandum
CFPF Resilience Plan Element Document’s Relationship to CFPF Resilience Plan Element
3 Social Equity This analysis of drainage deficiencies was citywide.
4 Flooding / Repetitive Loss Drainage deficiencies were identified in part by previous flooding and repetitive loss.
9 Best Science & Mapping This analysis used the best available science and updated floodplain maps.
The Watershed Management Technical Memorandum identifies and maps drainage deficiencies within each City watershed, including both areas where
infrastructure may be undersized or needs improvement and areas where more information is needed. Drainage data was analyzed, and maps and tables were
produced summarizing drainage deficiencies throughout the City (Table 2: Summary of Missing Drainage System Data by Watershed). This effort demonstrates
the City's ongoing efforts to improve the drainage and stormwater management systems.
Planning Documents
The City uses the following planning documents to implement its Interim Local Resilience Plan.
Capital Improvement Program Plan
CFPF Resilience Plan Element Document’s Relationship to CFPF Resilience Plan Element
1 Project Based The CIP identifies specific projects for development and implementation in the areas of flood control, stormwater
management, and dam safety.
3 Social Equity Projects are based on need and involve a priority evaluation of the needs of the entire City.
8 Regional Coordination & Projects are evaluated based on need and are scheduled based on the best possible availability of resources and criticality.
Schedule
The Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) is the City's five-year plan that establishes both a schedule and funding strategy for high-priority capital projects and
equipment purchases. Examples of capital improvement projects that impact and improve the City's resiliency to flooding include improvements to undersized and
failing drainage systems, construction of new stormwater infrastructure, repairs to existing stormwater infrastructure, citywide mapping, flood risk modeling,
dredging of stormwater management ponds, improvements to dams, and the development of a stormwater master plan.
The CIP allows for the systematic evaluation of capital projects, keeps the public informed about future needs and projects, fosters cooperation and coordination
between interrelated departments, identifies the most economical means of financing capital projects, and facilitates coordination between capital needs and the
operating budget.
