financial assistance for home, business, and farm owners to flood proof their
buildings and structures. Individual flood protection works will include:
construction of private dikes, elevating structures to the flood protection
level by raising them on earth mounds, and moving structures out of the flood
risk area. Neighbourhood dikes will also be considered. The Province will work
with landowners to determine which option is the most practical and the most
cost-efficient method. Similar to the 1997 Flood Proofing Program, the
participant will be responsible for paying a portion of the total project cost.
