Flood waters have peaked and are beginning to recede in many parts of the province, but the job is far from over. Clean up and recovery has begun, and there is much work to be done before life returns to normal in many Saskatchewan communities. A number of government Ministries are helping support communities and residents with their clean-up efforts, but it's your responsibility to clean up your property.

For more information, contact your local authorities or the Flood Information Line at 1-855-429-5455.
