The Stormwater Management Plan (SMP) for the township of Streaky Bay was prepared by Water Technology and Innovative Groundwater Solutions.
The Streaky Bay SMP was been developed in collaboration with the District Council of Streaky Bay (DCSB) and in consultation with the community, Eyre Peninsula Landscape Board and the Department for Environment and Water. Consultation activities and the development of the SMP have been undertaken using an integrated approach to ensure that the issues and opportunities were recognised and addressed in a consistent and considered manner.
The SMP provides an overview of:
- The existing catchments and issues relating to current stormwater management; and
- The opportunities to improve stormwater management to address both flood protection and the sustainable management of this resource and the environment.
The SMP:
- Serves as an update and replacement of the previous SMP developed by Tonkin Consulting in 2011;
- Builds upon and updates the recommendations, options and assessments considered by the 2011 SMP; and
- Introduces detailed flood modelling for the Streaky Bay township; and
- Considers qualitative guidance for the towns of Wirrulla, Poochera and Scale Bay.
