Billabong Floodplain Management Plan

Overview

What’s this about?

The NSW Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water is developing a new floodplain management plan for the Billabong Creek Floodplain and is seeking your feedback.

Floodplain management plans set the rules for flood work development on floodplains in rural areas. The rules include what type of flood works can be constructed and where.

Stage 2 public exhibition provides an opportunity for community feedback on the proposed management zones, and associated rules and assessment criteria for granting or amending flood work approvals.
