Review: This manual has been prepared in accordance with the NSW Government?s Flood Prone Land Policy. It guides councils in the development and implementation of detailed local floodplain risk management plans to produce robust and effective floodplain risk management outcomes. The manual also outlines the technical assistance provided by the State Government throughout the floodplain risk management process. The manual is concerned with the management of the consequences of flooding as they relate to the human occupation of the floodplain for both urban development and agricultural production. It addresses flood risk in full recognition of the fact that management decisions taken in respect of the human occupation of the floodplain need to satisfy the social and economic needs of the community as well as being compatible with the maintenance or enhancement of the natural ecosystems that the floodplain sustains.
