Rhode Island Infrastructure Bank (the Bank), in collaboration with Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (RIDEM), is soliciting proposals for one or more qualified firm(s) to provide technical services for the development of a Statewide Coastal Resilience Plan for the State of Rhode Island, in accordance with Chapter 46-23.4 of the Rhode Island General Laws.
Executive Order 23-07 “Rhode Island Resilience 2023” established the Rhode Island Chief Resilience Officer at Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management. The CRO coordinates resilience efforts across state agencies, municipalities, businesses, and other organizations and advises the RI Executive Climate Change Coordinating Council (RIEC4), established pursuant to R.I. General Laws § 42-6.2-1, on the status and effectiveness of statewide resilience efforts. As a part of the position’s mandate, the CRO is tasked to deliver a report on the State of Resilience in Rhode Island (the State of Resilience Report) to the RIEC4, the Governor, the Speaker of the House of Representatives, and the President of the Senate by December 31, 2024 and biennially thereafter. RIDEM and the CRO have convened statewide resilience workgroups, including the Resilience EC4 Subgroup (consisting of staff designees from each EC4 agency) and the RI Resilience Partner Group (consisting of statewide resilience subject matter experts, including non-profits & universities), to prepare this report, which will summarize current statewide resilience initiatives. Chapter 46-23.4 “Act on Coasts” requires the Rhode Island Chief Resilience Officer to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the climate risks related to sea level rise for coastal and riverine communities (the Statewide Coastal Resilience Plan). The CRO will conduct an assessment of risk to Providence, Kent, Washington, Bristol and Newport counties for the purposes of the development of a statewide coastal resilience strategy, building upon and supporting the work of the Rhode Island shoreline change special area management plan, hazard mitigation plan and the municipal resilience planning program. The statewide coastal resilience plan will be developed in conjunction with the Rhode Island executive climate change coordinating council (the “RIEC4”) to improve coordination among state agencies and local jurisdictions, to support community and economic recovery efforts, and to address risk and vulnerability reduction from sea rise, riverine flooding and urban heat. The CRO shall provide the statewide coastal resilience plan to the governor, the RIEC4 and the general assembly, to be included in the state climate plan as outlined in chapter 6.2 of title 42 ("2021 act on climate") which is due December 31, 2025.
