KINGSTON, Rhode Island, Oct. 15 (TNSJou) -- The University of Rhode Island issued the following news on Oct. 13:
A survey of maritime infrastructure engineers by University of Rhode Island researchers found that the rising sea level is often not factored into designs of ports, breakwaters, fishing piers and other coastal infrastructure.
"If we're making decisions about infrastructure today and expect it to be serviceable for the next 50 to 75 years, we should . . .
