Newcastle Flood Maps

[nhg]

Hi,

I'm struggling to find any useful Newcastle flood maps, even on the website. Anybody know where I may find some - preferably online.

Something similar to the Brisbane one would be really useful.
Eg: http://floodinformation.brisbane.qld.gov.au/fio/

Why would you look at the council website Serendip, it only has flood maps.

Also cast your eyes to the state water authority website.

I've just had a quick glance at this. The written report is very informative. You could also try the newspapers both local and Sydney after 2007 as I remember there were quite specific mentions of locations.
