Work is about 85 percent finished on the city's power and water plants as part of a berming project begun in 2013. An access road at the site was redesigned and raised nearly six feet to serve as a permanent berm. The Harlow berm is part of a three year plan to guard 7.1 kilometres of shoreline along Riverside River Road Lion's Park Industrial Avenue Kingsway East and Kipling Street with provincial funding approved for all but two. Brown says the city leads other municipalities in progress with most other work focusing on restoration rather than extra mitigation.
