As part of the Department of Municipal Affairs and Housing (DMAH) Municipal Flood Line Mapping (MFLM) program, Dillon Consulting has been retained to collect data to inform the development of a flood line map for Southwest Nova Scotia. The purpose of this initiative is to ensure consistency in flood line mapping across the province so that municipalities can develop appropriate standards and regulations for flood hazard areas. This map will not only help municipalities guide development away from flood hazards, they will also inform emergency management efforts and empower residents with information that will help them make informed decisions.

Our engagement phase for this project is now closed. If you have any additional feedback you'd like to share, please email jmiles@dillon.ca.
