Are you prepared for an emergency? Make sure you're as ready as you can be for an accident, environmental emergency or natural disaster.

Prepare Your Home

During a disaster, phone, gas, electrical and water services may be disrupted. Roads could be blocked, stores closed and gas stations out-of-service. It may be weeks before infrastructure, utilities and essential services are restored. Are you prepared to cope?

Completing the steps in the PreparedBC: Household Preparedness Guide (PDF) and filling in the blanks of the PreparedBC: Household Emergency Plan (PDF) will help you answer "yes".

Flood Protection and Planning

Visit Public Safety Canada for information on the National Disaster Mitigation Program

Flooding can pose a serious risk to public health and safety. Representatives from local governments, diking authorities and the public can use these guidelines and legislation to help manage potential flood impacts in their community.
