About the Study

Northern Beaches Council is carrying out a flood study to define the existing flood behaviour in the North Narrabeen Lagoon Catchment. This study will establish the basis for subsequent floodplain management activities and is being prepared to meet the objectives of the NSW State Government�s Flood Policy. The study will consider the potential impacts of climate change in line with current State Policy and best practice.

WMA Water, an independent company specialising in flooding and floodplain risk management, will undertake the study.
