PROJECTS:

The Upper Parramatta River Floodplain Risk Management Plan is a strategy to minimise the effects of flooding in the Upper Parramatta River catchment.

The Plan consists of three volumes: (1) The study (2) the planning issues and outcomes as a result of the study and (3) the plan suggested for adoption by the four Councils. Volume One will remain unchanged and provide useful background information on the Catchment. The Plan in Volume Three will be regularly updated as mitigation measures are implemented.
