Rushcutters Bay Floodplain Risk Management Study and Plan
This study and plan detail possible flood mitigation measures in Rushcutters Bay.
Paddington Flood Risk Management Study and Plan
In locations where flooding is indicated by both the Rushcutters Bay Flood Risk Management Study and Plan (RBFRMSP) and the Paddington Flood Risk Management Study and Plan (PFRMSP) the flood information contained in the PFRMSP is to take precedence.
