FY 2021-22 · 2021-04-01
Summary
The 2013 southern Alberta floods were one of the most costly disaster in Canadian history and Albertan still remain vulnerable to extreme flood. The flooding affected thousands of people in the City of Calgary and downstream communities. The effects of this flood event on infrastructure, watercourses and people have raised awareness of the need to be better prepared for extreme weather in the future. The goal of the project is to construct an off-stream storage reservoir which would reduce the effects of future extreme flood events on the City of Calgary and other downstream communities.

Description (French)
Les inondations qui ont eu lieux dans le sud de l’Alberta en 2013 ont été l’une des catastrophes les plus coûteuses de l’histoire du Canada, et les Albertains demeurent toujours vulnérables aux inondations extrêmes. Les inondations ont touché des milliers de personnes dans la ville de Calgary et dans les collectivités en aval. Les effets de ces inondations sur les infrastructures, les cours d’eau et la population ont fait prendre conscience de la nécessité de mieux se préparer aux phénomènes météorologiques extrêmes pouvant survenir à l’avenir. Le but du projet est de construire un réservoir de retenue hors cours d’eau qui réduirait les effets des éventuelles inondations extrêmes sur la ville de Calgary et d’autres collectivités en aval.
