River breakup is now complete. There is no longer a significant risk of ice jams causing flooding along the Clearwater and Athabasca rivers in Fort McMurray and surrounding areas. The Evacuation Alert for Draper has been lifted and the Ice Jam Watch has ended for the Clearwater River.

Mayor and Councillors invite Elders and community members aged 65 and older to the annual Seniors’ Week Luncheon on June 1 at SMS Equipment Place, Grand Ballroom.

River breakup is still in progress on the Clearwater River and water levels continue to fluctuate. Levels have dropped from earlier peaks but remain higher than normal due to snowmelt and a small but stubborn ice jam at the confluence of the Clearwater and Athabasca rivers.
