Collins Creek Flood Study
Consultation has concluded
We’ve updated the Collins Creek Flood Study and would like to share the Report with the community.
The community contributed valuable information to the study, with Council receiving hundreds of submissions about the flooding and drainage problems they’ve experienced on their properties. There is now a draft report of the Flood Study with information on how it was done and what the results are.
The updated Study explains the ways flooding happens in the Collins Creek catchment, located in Woonona, Russell Vale, Bellambi and Corrimal. The Study covers the catchments of Bellambi Lake, Bellambi Gully, Farrahars Creek, Collins Creek and Whartons Creek. Read the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) to learn more about the Study and how we manage flood risk.
We’ll be sharing the report with the community during the public exhibition from 17 June to 19 July 2019. Come along to one of our drop-in community information sessions where the floodplain engineers working on the Study will be able to answer your questions. These are drop-in sessions, so you can come in at any time.
