Norfolk is working towards a smarter solution to manage flooding, and you can help!
Retain Your Rain (RYR) at Home
By using small-scale green infrastructure at home, like rain barrels, you can hold rainwater where it falls. This reduces the amount of water that goes into the stormwater system (street drains and underground pipes) which floods our streets and neighborhoods.
Norfolk's resilience depends on all of us, help us design the coastal community of the future!
