MIT and Woods Hole Sea Grant Programs release

"The Massachusetts Homeowner's Handbook to Prepare for Coastal Hazards "
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

CAMBRIDGE, MA - May 24, 2013 - The Massachusetts Homeowner's Handbook to Prepare
 for Coastal Hazards was developed collaboratively with the Massachusetts Emergency
Management Agency (MEMA), Massachusetts Office of Coastal Zone Management (CZM),
 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), Massachusetts Department of Conservation
and Recreation (DCR), Barnstable County, and the two Massachusetts Sea Grant programs,
MIT Sea Grant (MITSG) and Woods Hole Sea Grant (WHSG). A key priority of this project
partnership is increasing the resiliency of coastal communities to coastal hazards.
One major component of strong communities is enhancing individual resilience and
 recognizing that adjustments to day-to-day living are necessary. This book is designed
to promote individual resilience, thereby creating a fortified community, and specifically
to help homeowners prepare for coastal hazards to reduce risks to family and property.

The resource provides information about coastal hazards in addition to guiding residents
on practical measures that can keep them safe and minimize damage to homes and property.
 While it is never possible to eliminate all potential damage from a natural hazard,
as a homeowner you can take action and implement many small and cost-effective steps
that could significantly lower your risk. Mother Nature can be intense. Your family
and home deserve protection that only you can provide.

Free hard copies are available at town halls throughout coastal Massachusetts, and
a limited number of books can be ordered by emailing seagrantinfo at mit.edu. To download

ABOUT MIT SEA GRANT COLLEGE PROGRAM

The mission of the MIT Sea Grant College Program is to employ innovative research,
education and outreach strategies to responsibly use and sustain the vital marine
resources of Massachusetts. The issues manifested and addressed locally are global
in nature, and are thus widely applicable. Compelling challenges demand our attention
as a solo entity, and in partnership with other groups living and working on the
 coasts and at sea. MIT Sea Grant brings the substantial intellectual abilities 
of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and our sister universities to bear
 on ocean-related challenges requiring an extraordinary technical contribution. 
In meeting these challenges, we expand human understanding of the ocean and establish
the infrastructure to sustain the initiatives and talent pool needed to address 
complex issues of critical and fragile marine resources. For more information, please
