The publication of the thesis and interactive cartography testifies to an exemplary commitment to transparency and to supporting municipalities and citizens in the face of these crucial issues.
By demonstrating the importance of adapting the regulatory framework to the realities of the territory, while proposing concrete solutions to increase community resilience, the CMM is demonstrating a proactive and thoughtful approach. The OBV SCABRIC shares this common objective of reconciling sustainable development and population protection in a context of climate change.

The Regroupement des organismes de bassins versants du Québec (ROBVQ) has submitted a thesis containing key recommendations for strengthening flood zone management regulations. The thesis aims to operationalize integrated water management at watershed level, establish clear links with Water Master Plans (WMPs) and encourage concerted commitment from local players. These proposals put forward solutions to improve community resilience to flooding and the impacts of climate change.
