By Design: Brandywine Flood Study

Tuesday, October 6, 2026 from 7 – 8 pm

Price: Pay-what-you-wish

Location: Online via Zoom

Join us online for a conversation with Director of the Brandywine Conservancy, Grant DeCosta, about the Brandywine Flood Study’s findings and recommendations.

In response to more frequent and extreme flooding events impacting communities along the Brandywine Creek in both Pennsylvania and Delaware, the Brandywine Conservancy launched the Brandywine Flood Study in August 2023—nearly two years after Hurricane Ida produced historic flooding that devastated the region. Conducted in partnership with the Chester County Water Resources Authority (CCWRA) and the University of Delaware Water Resources Center (UDWRC), the flood study was a coordinated effort to better understand where and why flooding occurs and identify the best approaches to protect our communities from future severe flooding events.
