It should be noted that while green infrastructure practices make communities more resilient, flooding might not be totally alleviated.This document is a companion piece to the Process Guide for Assessing Costs and Benefits of Green Infrastructure for Flood Mitigation. Step 3 in this publication, which involves identifying how a flood reduction target can be met with green infrastructure, is addressed here.
