The Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority is in the process of updating floodplain mapping for Beamsville Creek, Bartlett Creek, Prudhommes Creek, and six creeks in the Town of Grimsby. These floodplains were last mapped more than 25 years ago.

An important part of this process is engaging our community, particularly those who live in the vicinity of these creeks. Click here to see if your house is in the new floodplain.

This portal houses important documents that all are welcome to review, a project timeline which outlines the process for updating the floodplains and frequently asked questions.

Due to COVID-19, the two in-person information sessions that were scheduled in the spring were cancelled. Keeping the situation in mind and in an effort to protect staff and the community, these information sessions will now be offered virtually.
