The Regional District of Nanaimo (RDN) has received approval for a $150,000 grant from the Government of British Columbia’s Community Emergency Preparedness Fund, Disaster Risk Reduction – Climate Adaptation stream to conduct a geologic hazard (geohazard) risk study.

“The Regional District of Nanaimo is greatly appreciative of the grant provided by the Government of British Columbia,” said Vanessa Craig, RDN Chair. “The study outcomes will help our region be better prepared and more resilient to the effects of a changing climate.”

The knowledge and resources gained through this study will build upon the RDN’s on-going efforts to advance climate action and risk-based planning.
