Flood Mitigation

As recently as 2016, Edmonton has experienced significant flooding caused by large rainfall storms. The impacts of flooding to citizens, the environment, society and property are substantial.

Everyone has a stake in flood mitigation. Our plan envisions all stakeholders—citizens, businesses, industry, the City of Edmonton and EPCOR—working together to:

  Identify areas of Edmonton that have the highest risk of impact from flooding
  Engage the community to frame our plan around shared priorities
  Build a plan to slow, move, secure, predict and respond to flood waters in the community
  Empower home and property owners to help flood-proof private property
