Scope: To estimate the cost of adapting to sea level rise by 2100
What do we protect against? • Hazard defined by 2011 Sea Dike Guidelines
What standards apply?• 2011 Sea Dike Guidelines • 2011 Seismic Guidelines for Dikes
How much will it cost? • Goal of the project.

• 75,000 hectares protected by 365 km of dikes
• 58 dike rings managed by 29 diking authorities
• 500,000 people live and/or work in floodplain
• 2 million people depend on infrastructure within floodplain
• Re-occurrence of 1894 flood with dike failures would cause tens of billions of dollars of damage

• Limited study area – only Metro Vancouver area
• ‘Class D’ estimate
• Only using 36 reaches requires significant generalization
• Costs do not include operations and maintenance
• Seismic Guidelines are evolving – estimate is for current requirements

Next Steps: Long-Term Planning
• Long-term dedicated regional programs are required to 2100 and beyond.
• Adaptation and mitigation to be based on Regional Flood Protection Plans.
• Standardized risk-based design flood level elevations for sea & river dikes (ie. 1:500, 1:1000) should be established as part of an updated floodplain mapping program.
• Funding models must recognize the varying financial capacities of local government and diking districts.
Effective flood mitigation requires time to plan, design and implement ………………
