===Hotspot identification tool-sediment===
Thie project is GIS exercise which identifies areas of relative high-risk within a subwatershed for sediment delivery to water bodies. Uses stream power index and soil erodibility in rural areas, and event mean concentrations and stormwater management features in urban areas. Contact amanjot.singh(at)cvc.ca
===[https://davidsuzuki.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/municipal-natural-assets-initiative-peel-ontario.pdf Natural assets project]===
The Municipal Natural Assets Initiative (MNAI) pilot project for the Region of Peel quantifies the level of stormwater services (flood control and water quality control) provided by natural assets such as wetlands, forests and open green spaces, and the value of such services under existing climate and with climate change. The valuation is intended to assist municipalities in accounting for natural assets in municipal asset management framework. The study was completed for two subwatersheds within CVC’s jurisdiction of Peel, and is being expanded to include all of credit river watershed and the entire Region of Peel.
