By: Savannah Jones Moore, Robert Bardon, Fred Cubbage, Megan Lupek, Meredith Hovis

This roadmap outlines nature-based solutions (NBS) for flood mitigation in rural communities, particularly focusing on North Carolina's Coastal Plain. It provides a step-by-step guide for landowners to plan, implement, and monitor ten identified NBS, including cover cropping, hardpan breakup, and wetland restoration. The document also details the cost-benefit analysis and potential financial incentives for each solution, aiming to enhance disaster resilience through improved land management for water retention and storage.
