DISCLAIMERS are you? www.fI~odready.gov.au
Flood information provided by Council should only be used as a guide to the extent of flooding on the property. This
information may be inaccurate or incomplete and it is recommended that purchasers make their own local enquiries with
regard to the flooding and drainage history of the site. NO LIABILITY IS ACCEPTED FOR THIS INFORMATION.
The property information supplied does not represent the highest probable flood level that could occur on this property. A
flood more severe than the level described above may occur, although such events would be rare.
The absence of flood information does not imply that the above property is not subject to flooding, simply that Council has no
flood information for this property flooding.
If there is a history of flooding or drainage issues we recommend you seek professional advice on this matter.
SUNSHINE COAST COUNCIL ACCEPTS NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE ACCURACY OF THIS INFORMATION
GLOSSARY OF TERMS
Term Definition
Applicant The individual/s requesting a flood search to be completed for a specified property.
The individual/s that are registered by Council as owning the property for which a flood
Registered Owners
search is requested.
The Australian Height Datum (AHD)is the reference level for defining reduced levels
AHD adopted by the National Mapping Council of Australia. The level of 0.0 m AHD is
approximately mean sea level.
Defined Flood Level A water level derived through mathematical modelling of the Defined Flood Event.
Terminology consistent with State Planning Policy (SPP,2003)which states "Defined Flood
Defined Flood Event Event is the flood event adopted by a local government for the management of development
in a particular locality".
The Annual Exceedance Probability is the likelihood of occurrence of a flood or storm tide
inundation event of a given size or larger in anyone year, usually expressed as a
percentage. For example, if an event has an AEP of 1 %, it means that there is a 1 % risk
1%AEP (i.e. probability of 0.01 or a likelihood of 1 in 100) of this event occurring in anyone year. A
1 % AEP event should not be interpreted as only occurring once in 100 years.
This flood event is also commonly called the 100 year ARI (Average Recurrence Interval) or
Q100.
Is a reference to the document summarising the results of the anticipated flooding relevant

Highest Historical Flood
The highest flood water level from all historic events for which Council has records.
Level
Location Description of
A description of the site where the Highest Historical Flood Level was recorded.
Recorded Historical Event
Date of Historical Event The date on which the Highest Historical Flood Level occurred.
The minimum floor level calculated in accordance with the Town Plan through the addition
Minimum Floor Level of the relevant freeboard to th Defined Flood Level and the Highest Historical Flood Level.
Council requires that the higher of these two levels be used as the minimum floor level.
Where a ’regulation line’ has been set by Council to define the limit to which development
Flood Regulation Line
may encroach onto a floodplain, development is undertaken outside such ’regulation line’.
Rainfall Intensity The amount of rainfall occurring in a unit of time, usually expressed in millimetres/hour.
A tidal datum; the arithmetic mean of hourly heights of the sea at the tidal station observed
Mean Sea Level
over a period of time (preferably 19 years). Source: BOM This is approximately 0.0 m AHD
The elevation of water generated by a tropical cyclone above or below the normal
Storm Surge
astronomical tide.
A tropical cyclone is a low-pressure system which develops in the tropics and is sufficiently
Tropical Cyclones intense to produce sustained winds of at least 63 km/h or greater and gusts in excess of 90
km/h near the centre.
A factor of safety usually expressed as a height above the adopted Defined Flood Level. A
Freeboard freeboard tends to compensate for factors such as wave action and historical and modelling
uncertainties.
