Draft Shoreline Natural Hazard Mapping Available Online

A draft interactive map of areas prone to flooding along coastlines in the Essex-Windsor region is now available for the public to view.

The Shoreline Natural Hazard Mapping Update has been commissioned by the County of Essex in partnership with the Essex Region Conservation Authority. It covers the shoreline areas of Lake St. Clair, the Detroit River and Lake Erie bordering the County of Essex and City of Windsor.

The maps will be used by the conservation authority, County of Essex, local municipalities, City of Windsor and shoreline property owners to plan safe development and prepare for emergencies.

To view the draft interactive map go to the County of Essex Shoreline Natural Hazard Mapping Update page.
