OUR MUNICIPALITY

THE RURAL MUNICIPALITY OF MALPEQUE BAY

Our municipality includes the seven school districts of Baltic, Darnley, Hamilton, Malpeque, Indian River, Sea View and Spring Valley. Farming, fishing and tourism make up a large part of the local industries. The lovely beaches along the shores are a huge drawing point to tourists around the world. There is an abundance of quality accommodations, golf courses, fresh local seafood, Malpeque oysters, lobster, mussels & fresh organic vegetables. Life is good, so come and stay in Malpeque Bay! Malpeque Bay is one of 36 sites in Canada, designated as Wetlands of International Importance (Ramsar Sites). It is a coastal lagoon system protected from the open sea (Gulf of St. Lawrence) by a 25-km long coastal sandspit and dune formation. The Bay is a nesting site for the globally threatened wader, the "Piping Plover". It is also an important staging area for very large numbers of geese and ducks during spring and autumn migration periods.

Home Flood Protection - Information

The PEI Flood Guide: A Resource for Local Land Use Planning provides necessary information to decision-makers about flood risk in Prince Edward Island. This Guide describes coastal and inland flood risks, provides guidance for creating flood policy and reviewing development applications, and introduces tools that can be used to help set land use policies. It provides answers to questions such as:

  • What type of flood risks does PEI experience?

  • How can land use planning reduce flood risks?

  • What tools and resources are available to help us learn about flood risk and adaptive options?

  • How do I access and use these tools?

  • How can we reduce flood risk in our communities?

  • What recommendations are there for processing development applications in flood hazard areas?

  • How do I interpret flood hazard data?

  • What legislation has implications to flood risk planning?
