REGINA -The Water Security Agency (WSA) says it is continuing to enhance and improve water management for the province with a an investment in the Flood Hazard Identification Mapping Program.
As part of WSA's 2023-24 budget, more than $2 million is being invested to support flood mapping efforts throughout the province of Saskatchewan.
WSA says it will be working with communities that have been identified as being at risk for possible flood damage. The program will carry out mapping and other technical work to identify where risks are, which officials say will lead to a better understanding of the mitigation and protection work required to keep people and communities safe.
According to the agency, this year's investment will build on the work already completed elsewhere in the province and carry on mapping and hazard identification for additional communities including:
- Moose Jaw
- Saskatoon
- Regina
- Weyburn
- Tisdale
- Melfort
