Published purpose
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.
