Results
The TUFLOW hydraulic model been assessed for a range of flood events including the 63.2%,
39%, 10%, 1%, 1% (2100) AEP storms and the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF) event. The
assessment has considered a range of storm durations to ensure that the critical storm is
defined. The results of the hydraulic assessment are presented as a series of flood maps to
illustrate the flooding characteristics of the overland flow path and the resulting flood
behaviours including flooded depth, height, velocities, hazard and afflux.
The flood maps are presented in Appendix F and Appendix I.
4.3.1. Existing Scenario
The existing scenario flood maps are shown in Appendix F. This details the existing flood
extent and behaviour in relation to the development site. The results of this have been used
as the basis for assessing the potential impacts that may result from the development.
4.3.2. Proposed Scenario
The proposed scenario flood maps are shown in Appendix G. This details the proposed flood
extent and behaviour in relation to the development site. An indicative lot plan is overlaid on
this map set to highlight how the development relates to the flood plain.
The PMF event was run for the proposed scenario to identify flood behaviour in this extreme
event and how residents would be able to safely manage this event from their property. The
PMF level across the site ranges from 13.48 to 13.51m AHD, which is approx. 0.4m and 1.0m
higher at the upstream and downstream boundary of the site, respectively.
Each building envelope will require fill to achieve appropriate freeboard, however, all filling is
generally above the 1% (2100) AEP flood level. Minor filling of Lot 1 is required and some
minor shaping of the land beside the Lot 1 building envelope to manage afflux cause by
flooding backing up behind the building envelope.
4.3.2.1. Peak Discharge
The assessment found the peak discharge at the site boundary are predicted to decrease
across all modelled events. This is shown in Table 4-3 which compares the Existing and
Proposed peak discharge at the site boundary for each event. As such it is considered that
a formal detention is not required to service this development as the design has achieved
the required non-worsening outcome.
