Office of Water Climate Adaptation Implementation Plan

Climate Adaptation Plan

The Office of Water published its Climate Adaptation Implementation Plan (pdf) in 2022 in concert with other EPA program offices and Regions. The Plan outlines how it will help attain the goals described in the Agency’s Climate Adaptation Action Plan and describes how it will help partners build their resilience and capacity to adapt, while delivering benefits, promoting public health, economic growth, and climate justice. The Plan includes a range of priority actions that the Office of Water commits to taking in the near-term to advance its climate adaptation agenda across the Office of Water’s infrastructure, regulatory, and non-regulatory programs.
