One of CVC's most important roles is to protect people and property from flooding. We work to prevent or minimize the impacts of flooding by regulating development through planning and flood forecasting.

DYK? Your property may be in a floodplain—even if you’ve never experienced a flood. 🌊

Rain and snowmelt can cause rivers, streams, and lakes to overflow onto surrounding lands.

Conservation Authorities use floodplain mapping to inform safe development and reduce flood risks.

The trail you're enjoying today is what someone else will experience tomorrow. #LeaveNoTrace by help keep the parks healthy for everyone when you visit. 🚮 Pack out what you pack in, stay on trails and leave nature as you found it. Your small actions make a big difference.

Salmon are on the move! 🐟🌊

Each fall, salmon migrate from Lake Ontario into the Credit River watershed to spawn.

Brampton’s creeks and streams are part of this connected watershed.

Meet Tilly, @CVC_CA’s conservation detection dog!

Tilly helped investigate burrows at Levi’s Creek for invasive red swamp crayfish. The good news, no invasive crayfish were found. Instead, the burrows belonged to native virile crayfish.

@smarth2oman Using this data from our gauge network and alerts from Environment Canada about inclement weather conditions, in combination with our hydrologic and hydraulic models, we can predict flooding and impacts. You can view the data anytime on our website at https://t.co/9p1DZHoJeO

@smarth2oman Yes, CVC’s engineers and hydrologists use floodplain mapping and real-time monitoring with a network of climate stations, rainfall and stream flow gauges across the watershed that capture information in real time, alerting us to changes in weather conditions and water levels.
