Alberta Flood Recovery & Resilience

Protecting communities through recovery, risk mitigation, and resilience.

In June 2013, the heavy rainfall in southern and central Alberta was described as the worst in the province’s history—with states of local emergency declared and communities placed under evacuation orders.

Flood waters damaged Alberta infrastructure and left communities with a wide range of required moderate and minor repairs. Clients were looking for a multidisciplinary consultant to provide engineering design, environmental, regulatory, and construction services. Relying on our expertise and our ability to deliver under immense coordination demands, we identified innovative methods to decrease complexity and costs on our flood mitigation projects.

Our work in the wake of the 2013 floods has only gotten more focused on providing resilience for our communities as we prepare for future weather and ecological events.
