The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service initiated a project in 2014 to comprehensively modernize the maps for the Coastal Barrier Resources System units in the nine states most affected by Hurricane Sandy: Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York (Long Island), Rhode Island, and Virginia. The public was provided an opportunity to comment on the proposed changes through comment periods held in 2018 and 2019 (see archived materials from the public review periods). This set of documents provides summaries of the proposed changes for each affected state.
