An account of issues relating to water supply management and drinking water quality over the past financial year.

The strategy sets the direction for flood management, and outlines how agencies will work together to plan for, avoid and reduce flood risks while supporting emergency preparation and response.

​All work on our underground drainage assets, including stormwater connections to our drains, must only be undertaken by Contractors who meet the following criteria:

Plan ahead. Understand the impacts of potential flooding on your plans to buy, sell, build, renovate or develop.

There are four types of flood planning controls where you may need our consent before your council will issue a planning permit.

If you're developing or renovating a property that's subject to flooding, you'll probably need a planning permit from your council.

We’re constantly obtaining new flood information for the wider Melbourne area. We provide this information to councils, so they have accurate information about land that may be affected by flooding during severe storms.

If you've submitted your application for a planning permit to your local council we may have added some conditions on you being granted the permit.
