Résumé
The proposed project has two main components to improve long-term water supply and watershed resilience: Replacement of a weir upriver and various flood controls and attenuation projects in mid river. Together, these components will provide both water storage opportunities during the summer and flood relief during the winter, to mitigate the risk of further impacts from climate change and increase the resiliency of critical public infrastructure, as well as homes and livelihoods, particularly in already affected zones.

Description (French)
Le projet proposé comporte deux volets principaux visant à améliorer l'approvisionnement en eau à long terme et la résilience du bassin versant : le remplacement d'un barrage en amont et divers projets de contrôle et d'atténuation des crues en milieu de rivière. Ensemble, ces volets permettront de stocker l'eau en été et de soulager les inondations en hiver, afin d'atténuer le risque de nouveaux impacts du changement climatique et d'accroître la résilience des infrastructures publiques essentielles, ainsi que des habitations et des moyens de subsistance, en particulier dans les zones déjà touchées.
