Planning approach in case of exceptional flooding or dam failure in the Lièvre River watershed

Buckingham and Masson-Angers sectors

Initiated by the Ministère de la Sécurité publique du Québec, this harmonized planning process has enabled Gatineau to work with many partners to perfect its preparation and harmonize its planning with all stakeholders concerned by a major disaster. As a result of this work, municipal authorities are now better prepared to ensure your safety in the event of exceptional flooding or a dam failure.
