NEW: Given consideration to the December 2020 What We Heard document, the current scope of proposed flood mitigation work is focused on the area from Portugal Cove Road to Kings Bridge Road. Another public meeting will be held prior to the submission of the Environmental Preview Report for this current scope of work. Check out the Key Dates for details.
The Rennies River Catchment Stormwater Management Plan (RRCSMP) was completed in 2014. On May 26, 2014, Council Directive CD# R2014-05-26/5 recommended implementation of the recommendations below to address flooding in the area.
While the report recommended that the weir at Long Pond be given priority and the two problem areas located downstream of Long Pond be given second priority, the City has been working through the provincial environmental approval process for the Long Pond Weir Project since that time and the process is still ongoing. It has been determined through floodplain modelling that completion of the work in the Priority 2 area can proceed before the proposed work at the outlet of Long Pond.
Feedback gathered through this project will be included in the City's submission to the Government of NL as a part of the Environmental Assessment process.
