Overview

We are asking Albertans for feedback on draft reports and flood maps from the Edson flood study. 

We are particularly interested in feedback on the draft flood inundation maps, which show areas at risk for different sized floods to help with emergency response, and the draft flood hazard maps, which define floodway and flood fringe areas to help with long term planning.

Public engagement is part of our standard flood study finalization process, and occurs after local authorities, such as towns, cities, counties, municipal districts, and Indigenous communities, have had an opportunity to review the draft reports and flood maps.

Get informed

You do not need to be a technical expert to provide your feedback. We also understand that not everyone is interested in reading reports and may only want to see the draft flood maps.

Get involved

Complete the survey to provide your feedback by Wednesday, July 8, 2026, at 4:30 pm.

Take the survey

The draft reports and flood maps have gone through several stages of review already, but we welcome your feedback regarding factual errors or omissions. We are particularly interested in your feedback on the draft flood inundation and hazard maps, but all feedback is welcome.

Next steps

We will carefully consider all submitted feedback. Due to the potential volume of submissions we likely will not be able to respond to your feedback directly.

Future study update notices will be provided through the Flood Hazard Identification Program. This will include more information about the study status and where we are in the finalization process.
