They are spreading that infrastructure money across a number of sectors throughout the year and I try to catch those stories and post them.

For example here in Philly, ours is up the Delaware River from the Delaware Bay (where the Bay eventually goes out to the ocean). The same goes for the Port of Wilmington. Baltimore's are a bit tucked in although is still more exposed to inundation.

Some of the rest like NY's or Norfolk, etc., are right out there. Hurricane Sandy really revealed the dangers of being right there on the ocean, at least up at this latitude (the southern states tend to get impacted more by tropical cyclone hits).

But I expect all kinds of mitigation things would start being designed and implemented first.

I know many point to what they have done in the Netherlands with respect to dikes and levies and whatnot. I.e., stuff like this - https://www.netherlandswaterpartnership.com/news/maeslant-storm-surge-barrier-largest-moveable-object-world-was-closed-last-night-first-time
