	Progress Bulletin: Montego Bay Coastal Hazard Assessment
		This approach was first applied to Montego Bay, Jamaica, where wave and surge effects on Montego Bay from all storms in the National Hurricane Center's database (951 storms) were modeled using the TAOS storm hazard model to develop a comprehensive information base for this statistical study.
		A workshop on the Montego Bay storm hazard assessment, co-sponsored by the Jamaica Institute of Engineers (JIE) and CDMP, was held in Kingston, Jamaica, in October 1997.
		The statistical approach to estimating storm surge return periods, which was developed for the Montego Bay study, was subsequently applied to the State of Florida for the estimation of storm surge return periods.

	Storm Surge Mapping for Montego Bay, Jamaica
		One of the devastating impacts of the passage of a hurricane on a coastline is due to the occurrence of storm surge.
		Storm surge is itself caused by a number of interactions between the hurricane, the water body over which it passes, and the nearby land masses.
		For the 1997 Montego Bay storm hazard mapping assessment, the 10-, 25-, 50- and 100- year surge heights at Doctor’s Cave beach were estimated for the maximum likelihood estimate and the 90 percent, 95 percent and 99 percent confidence levels.

	Stormwater \| Mission Bay Bacterial Source Identification Study
		Because each of the sites assessed in Mission Bay had different characteristics related to bacterial sources, the dominant suspected source (e.g., storm drain effluent) or sources at each site were assessed using MST along with the receiving waters.
		A high degree of similarity between the genetic fingerprints of bacteria in the receiving water and those in storm drain effluent, for instance, suggests the storm drain is a source of bacteria.
		When fresh water is present in the storm drain, as is often the case due to groundwater intrusion, bacterial densities can increase by several orders of magnitude within a few days of the initial deposition.

		The San Diego Bay Watershed is unique due to its dry Mediterranean climate and the existence of heavy U.S. Navy, commercial, and recreational uses in such close proximity to valuable wildlife habitat.
		The Storm Water Management Program of the Environmental Services Department is a major element of the Port of San Diego commitment to preventing, reducing, and eliminating the discharge of polluted storm water into San Diego Bay.
		Storm water runoff is a significant source of pollutants to the Bay.

	Burlington Bay - Storm Water Data
		Storm Event Monitoring by Autosampler: Because of the construction of the new science center and lake aquarium next door (ECHO at the Leahy Center for Lake Champlain) and damage to the autosampler line during this period, the sampler was inactive during much of the summer.
		Phosphorus concentrations were at least 100 times higher than the average concentrations in Lake Champlain throughout the storm, and during a period of heavy rain, reached to almost 1000 micrograms per L. This type of temporal data would be difficult to obtain when samples are collected by hand.
		This intern conferred with Burlington Bay personnel to identify appropriate storms.

		This was the storm on December 12, 1995 that is the benchmark of strong windstorms among Bay Area meteorologists.
		The three storms which rated a 9.5 were on December 22, 1955 and the second in December 22, 1982 and the infamous Columbus Day Storm of 1962.
		Of course the actual impacts upon the Bay Area by a pair of storms that had identical BASI values would vary significantly due to a wide variety of antecedent conditions that are not a part of the index.

	Tampa Bay could be hit by 25-foot storm surge in Category 4 hurricane
		A Category 4 hurricane could cause a storm surge of as much as 25 feet in Tampa Bay, according to a University of Central Florida researcher who is looking at the risks Florida cities face from tidal surges and flooding.
		They ran their storm surge model with wind and pressure fields for hypothetical hurricanes with three different paths and traveling at two different speeds, 5 and 15 mph.
		While the maximum storm surge levels for a storm moving at 5 mph were a few feet lower, the surge levels remained high for much longer and therefore posed more serious risks.

	Tampabay: Storm skids into bay area
		Damaging winds and pounding rain swept across the bay area on Tuesday as a surprise storm snapped trees, crushed mobile homes and dumped up to 9 inches of rain on some areas.
		Nearly three dozen buildings in Citrus County were damaged by the storm, including seven mobile homes that were destroyed, according to the Citrus County Sheriff's Office.
		The scattered thunderstorms were caused by a low-pressure system in the Panhandle that shot a mass of cool air toward Tampa Bay, said forecasters with the National Weather Service in Ruskin.

	Greenwich Bay: Storm Drain Discharges
		The drains emptied into the main body of the Bay itself, into Apponaug, Brush Neck, Greenwich, and Warwick coves, and into Buttonwood, Carpenter's, and Tuscatucket brooks.
		Next, Wright measured the amounts of fecal coliform bacteria and nutrients that were coming out of 30 selected storm drains during dry weather.
		In order for a storm to be selected for sampling, there must be at least.3 inches of rainfall, the rain must last at least 5 hours, and it needs to be dry for at least three days before the storm.

		Proposition O, appearing on the November 2nd ballot as the Clean Water, Ocean, River, Beach, Bay Storm Water Clean-Up Bond, is a $500 million general bond to help the city of Los Angeles clean up the polluted storm water that flows to our rivers, lakes and beaches.
		According to Heal the Bay's 2004 Beach Report Card, 59% of Los Angeles County beaches monitored received a fair-to-poor water quality grade, with 37% of beaches receiving an "F" grade for microbiological pollution during wet weather.
		The types of projects eligible for Prop O funds include storm water cleanup, control and diversion to the sewer system; pollution prevention technologies; trash capture; urban lakes and bay improvements; habitat/wetlands restoration and creation; storm water retention facilities/parks/greenbelts; and water conservation/and drinking water protection efforts.

		Buttermilk Bay is a small tidal embayment located in the towns of Bourne and Wareham, Massachusetts, at the north end of Buzzards Bay.
		Since that time, portions of the bay have been reopened for shellfishing, only to be closed again due to recurring high fecal coliform levels.
		Of the approximately 30 storm drains that discharge into Buttermilk Bay, the storm drains at Electric Avenue Beach (in the town of Bourne) and at Red Brook (in the town of Wareham) were selected for inclusion in the Buttermilk Bay Demonstration Project.

		Estimates of total storm damage, compiled for emergency purposes within 2 weeks of the storm, exceeded $280 Million (including flooding and other non-landslide damages);of which $66 Million was documented for landslides.
		Most of the recent landslides occurred during or immediately after storm periods in which more than 7 inches (18 cm) of rain fell, particularly if the ground was already wet from previous storms.
		Some of the largest ancient landslides in the San Francisco Bay area are on a four-mile stretch on the coastal side of Inverness Ridge at the south end of Point Reyes.

		In 2002, the Burlington Bay project established a volunteer citizen’s monitoring group in collaboration with the Burlington Eco Info network (previously Burlington EMPACT) to help with our stormwater sampling effort.
		Citizen volunteers were recruited and trained to sample stormwater entering Burlington Bay during 5-8 significant storm events over the summer and fall months.
		In addition to sampling more sites, we also wanted to be able to characterize stormwater over the course of a storm event in order to identify peak contaminant concentrations and the duration of the water quality impacts.
