Why is the new mapping different to the State mapping and planning scheme mapping?
The CHAP project updates the State Government erosion prone areas mapping (released in 2013).
The State mapping is suitable for a ‘first pass’ assessment of erosion prone areas and uses a simpler
methodology than the CHAP project. The State’s mapping does not provide sufficient information
regarding likelihood and consequence used for the more detailed risk assessments required by local
governments for planning purposes. Further, it provides mapping results for the year 2100 but not the
intervening years (i.e. 2040 and 2070). These knowledge gaps have been addressed as part of the
CHAP project and its coastal erosion mapping.
What about other climate change risks?
Council has performed a first-pass assessment of risks from other climate change-related hazards
such as heatwaves, flooding, and drought as part of the development of its Climate Change
Response Plan 2021. This plan was recently endorsed by Council, and can be viewed on Your Say
Noosa.
What about mitigation of greenhouse gases?
Council’s commitment to reducing greenhouse gases has been incorporated into the recently
endorsed Noosa Climate Change Response Plan 2021, which can be viewed on Your Say Noosa.
