What was this engagement about? 

The Government of Yukon is developing flood hazard maps for all Yukon communities that are at risk of flooding.

We developed flood hazard maps through detailed surveying and modelling and show how different flood scenarios could impact surrounding areas.

The Carmacks flood hazard maps cover about 35 kilometres of shoreline, including 26 kilometres of the Yukon River and nine kilometres of the Nordenskiold River.

Flood hazard maps are now publicly available on the Government of Yukon’s Flood Atlas.

How will my input make a difference?

The feedback we received helped us confirm the results and informed the refinements we made to how we present information on the maps. This included the information that confirmed the extent of mapped flood areas in general, as well as identifying one area where we need to carry out further field work to validate the extent of the flood areas.
