Description

The Cape Breton Regional Municipality (CBRM) is requesting proposals from qualified consultants to carry out flood line mapping in the Watersheds specified following the specifications of the Nova Scotia Municipal Flood Line Mapping (MFLM) Document. Nova Scotia is one of the provinces most vulnerable to the impacts of flooding and climate change, notably through the combination of land subsidence, sea level rise, and increased precipitation. Most of the development in the province is located along the coastline or a major watercourse, meaning that the issue of flooding is a significant concern in Nova Scotia. One of the tools available to Municipalities to protect public safety is the development of flood maps. Municipal Planning Strategies and Land Use By-laws can then be developed to control the type of development that may take place within flood-prone areas.
