Floodplain Committees
Our Floodplain Risk Management Committees give advice to Council on the preparation and implementation of flood management plans for catchments within the Wollongong Local Government Area (LGA). The Committees include people interested in the sustainable management of floodplains in our area.
There is one committee each for our northern, central and southern areas.

- Local community representatives, including land owners, flood action groups and environmental groups
- Guests who provide specialist advice as needed.
