Flood Studies

We are committed to the goal of a 'Safer, Stronger, More Resilient Region' by continuing to improve flood management and community awareness of flood risk.

We have undertaken a comprehensive assessment of flood risk across the region. This includes completion of flood studies for townships and major creek catchments. These studies are not only designed to raise awareness of flood risk, but to inform mitigation measures and aid in regulating development.

A program of updates has been implemented for our flood studies to ensure we maintain a current understanding of flood behaviour throughout the region.
