What is the role of the Fraser Basin Council in flood hazard management?
The Fraser Basin Council (FBC) is a not-for-profit, non-governmental organization that works to advance sustainability in the Fraser Basin and its communities. The FBC has no jurisdiction or authority to manage flood hazards, which is the role of government authorities. Our role is to develop and share information on flood hazards and to work with government agencies to address flood management issues and concerns. We bring together the jurisdictions that have roles and responsibilities to facilitate dialogue and build consensus on how flood hazard management strategies can be better coordinated and integrated.
