FLOOD PREPAREDNESS
YOUR DISASTER PLAN
Use the worksheet (together with SES information) to create Your Draft Disaster Plan and start a conversation with your family and friends about how you will prepare and respond when a flood happens. Click here to view or download the worksheet.
FLOODS - WHAT'S YOUR PLAN?
If you live or work in the Hawkesbury-Nepean Valley you are at risk of flood. Your home, your family and your animals may be vulnerable when it floods. Check the SES maps here to see how floods potentially affect your location
FLOODS- WHAT TO TAKE?
Use the Disaster Checklist here and read the SES fact sheets. Prepare the items to pack in your emergency kit.
FLOODS- KNOWING WHEN TO LEAVE?
Some local roads may be impacted by flooding. Check the SES fact sheet for local evacuation routes to find roads on higher ground.
Never drive through flood water on a road.
FLOODS - HOW CAN YOU HELP?
NWCS is a community hub that will prepare and respond to local Riverstone in conjunction with the State Emergency Services (SES) and Blacktown City Council. Spontaneous Volunteers work together with NWCS when needed to respond using the Riverstone Disaster Project Equipment in the Resilience Trailer.
