Flood and Floodplain Risk Management Studies and Plans

Snowy Monaro Regional Council is encouraging the community to have their say on a draft report that outlines the flood risk and flood management plans for a number of towns in our region.

The Flood and Floodplain Risk Management Study and Plan has been released for public exhibition, presenting the behaviour, assessment and future planning considerations to manage flooding risk in Berridale, Bredbo, Cooma and Michelago.

Council has received financial support from the State Floodplain Management program (managed by the former Office of Environment and Heritage, now Department of Planning, Industry and Environment) to undertake a flood investigation of these towns.

The draft report is out for community comment until 5pm Wednesday 7 October 2020.

Due to the size of the report, hard copies are available for inspection at each Council office and library. To view a hard copy, please call 1300 345 345 to make an appointment. Copies are also available for download from Your Say Snowy Monaro (to the right of your screen).

Submissions can be made by completing an online survey below, or in writing to the Chief Executive Officer by the following methods:
