What’s new along the Elbow & Bow Rivers?
Since 2013, Calgary has come a long way in building a more flood resilient city, reducing our city’s risk by 55 per cent. Here’s a quick update on some major flood mitigation initiatives:
Springbank Off-Stream Reservoir
Sunnyside Flood Barrier Project
Emergency Planning & Response Committee (EPARC)
The focus of EPARC is on emergency preparedness, disaster mitigation and liaison between residents and The City of Calgary on infrastructure.
There is currently one active subcommittee operating within EPARC: The Infrastructure (technical) division.
