Natural disaster declarations
A Disaster Declaration is a frequently updated list of Local Government Areas (LGA) that have been impacted by a natural disaster. With a disaster declaration for their area, affected communities and individuals can access a range of special assistance measures.
Disaster declarations are issued by the NSW Government and incorporate an Australian Government reference number (AGRN).
