Welland River Floodplain Mapping Study
The NPCA is undertaking a new mapping exercise for the main branch of the Welland River from Binbrook Dam to the Niagara River.A comprehensive consultation process involving three rounds of public information sessions will keep residents informed and provide an opportunity for participation and feedback.
The Consultation Summary Report from the February (Round #1) Public Information Sessions is available here http://www.wellandriver.ca/ .
Public Information Sessions – Be Informed – Ask Questions
Our first round of public consultation revealed that residents want more information on how water flowing through the river may affect the new flood lines. As such, the following June (Round #2) Public Information Sessions will focus on explaining the technical aspects of the floodplain modelling. We will also address any outstanding topics and seek your input on any new issues using the facilitated discussion format.
Note that draft floodlines will not be available at the Round #2 sessions.
