Municipal Flood Risk Check-Up

The Municipal Flood Risk Check-Up from the Intact Centre for Climate Adaptation, in partnership with IPE, has been developed to support Canadian municipalities in better preparing for heavy rainfall, river, and coastal flooding. It is a self-assessment questionnaire with 50 questions designed to assess potential flood hazards (flood exposure), and implementation of actions to reduce flood risks (flood preparedness). The Check-Up helps users navigate the variety of existing standards, guidance, and tools available, and focuses on the role of municipal action at multiple levels: from the localized protection of individual homes to the management of flooding processes at the watershed scale.
