HORSHAM INFORMATION
Wimmera CMA has provided detailed flood modelling which has identified the houses at risk from over-floor flooding in the Horsham and Riverside areas. On this link, refer to the “Horsham Wartook 2019” flood study, for which maps are presented for different degrees of flooding. When the severity of flooding of this event is known, reference will be made to a specific map, e.g. the 1% map is commonly referred to as the 1-in-100 year flood.
NATIMUK INFORMATION
Flood modelling has identified 28 houses that are at risk of over-floor flooding at different flood levels. Sandbags will be available to properties identified via the SES. In the case of changing circumstance and/or declaration of a major event, sand and bags will be made available for people if they have a real or likely flooding issue.
