TSUNAMI RISK REDUCTION INITIATIVES AND PUBLIC ART PROJECTS
Made possible through our partnership with multiple First Nations and municipalities, this funding will allow the Strathcona Regional District (SRD) to support tsunami risk reduction initiatives throughout and beyond the west coast of the region” said SRD Chair, Mark Baker. “For example, developing a building plan and engineered design for renovating the Walters Island Community Hall in Kyuquot to serve as a Tsunami Vertical Evacuation Structure is just one of the initiatives that this funding will support”.
