This study delineates flood hazard areas and determines design flood levels along the Red Deer, Little Red Deer and the Medicine Rivers through Red Deer County, including Markerville. The study area includes an approximate 50 km reach of the Red Deer River, an approximate 12 km reach of the Little Red Deer River and an approximate 17 km reach of the Medicine River. The Red Deer River design discharge ranges from 1450 m³/s at the upstream study extent to 1750 m³/s at the downstream extent. The design discharges for the Little Red Deer and Medicine Rivers are 419 m³/s and 283 m³/s respectively. The study was prepared in March 2007.
