New Brunswick flood, April - May 1973 .: En36-503/81E-PDF

"During the 1973 flood, forecasting and emergency measures activities were successful in avoiding more serious personal hardship and greater economic losses. Warning provided, through weather and streamflow forecasting, permitted some advance planning to react to the emergency while the Emergency Measures Organization proved its worth in directing the disaster activities. In spite of‘ this, the flood caused an estimated $2.5 million in damage to moveable property. Continuation and irnprovement, of flood forecasting and emergency measures programs are clearly desirable"--Abstract.
