Flooding is one of the leading causes of public emergency in the Ontario.
Did you know that Angus, Stayner, Creemore, Alliston, Beeton, Wasaga Beach, and Collingwood are the areas that are the most susceptible to flooding in the Nottawasaga Watershed?
Communities outside of these areas may also experience flooding when you're least expecting it. Some areas may not have flooded for decades, but with the right combination of heavy or prolonged rain, snow melt, elevated stream flow, ice/debris jams, soil moisture and other factors, properties and lives are suddenly at risk.
NVCA has dedicated a new section of our website for information related to flooding. We also run a flood forecasting and warning system and issues alerts to to let municipalities, emergency departments, school boards and you know if there is a risk of flooding.
