Workshop Description

In this interactive, virtual workshop series, OSPE’s facilitator will share information and lead discussions with participating municipalities on how to develop a Decision-Making Framework (DMF) to assist in building resiliency into municipal operations and incorporating climate change into their asset management plans. The DMF responds to the question:  How can the municipality assess the resiliency of its assets to climate change?

The DMF is based on the principles of ISO31000 and is comprised of four steps: (1) Establishing Context, (2) Assessing Risk, (3) Evaluating Risk, and (4) Treating Risk.

OSPE’s AM302 workshop will focus on steps 1 & 2, the foundational steps in the implementation of a DMF.

In step 1, establishing context, the AM302 workshop provides participants with an overview of how to characterize assets and their elements (including identifying unique types of assets), how to break down assets into components, and how to determine the level of granularity appropriate as this process is applied. The workshop will also focus on identifying and characterizing the climate hazards that are relevant to the assets being assessed.

In the risk assessment, step 2, participants will discover how to define the frequency of the climate hazards and assess the severity of the climate impacts on the assets.

A case study will be used to show participants how a DMF can be applied in a municipal setting for incorporation of climate change into their asset management plans.

Workshop Outcomes

  • Participants will be able to apply a Decision-Making Framework (DMF) for incorporating climate change into their asset management plans.
  • Participants will be able to express how to build resiliency into municipal operations.
