Brief description
This report presents the outcomes of the flood warning system review targeted at identifying actions which can lead to improved flood warning arrangements for Cootamundra. The project used a comprehensive assessment methodology to examine the existing flood warning system. This involved community engagement (drop-in session in the township), discussions with Council’s Technical Sub-Committee and input from the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM), NSW State Emergency Service (NSW SES) and the NSW Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (DCCEEW). 20 opportunities for improvement were identified to enhance the flood warning arrangements for Cootamundra township The main recommended improvement is the development and installation of a flash flood alerting system based on rainfall and other data such as flood forecasting products, soil moisture and rain radars.Spatial Coverage And Location
