Coastal Zone Emergency Sub-Plan

Under the mandatory requirements of the Coastal Management Act, a coastal management program must have an emergency sub-plan if the LGA contains land within the coastal vulnerability area and beach erosion, coastal inundation or cliff instability is occurring on that land. The MidCoast Council Local Emergency Management Plan (EMPLAN) contains SES Flood Emergency Sub Plans for the Former Greater Taree, Great Lakes and Gloucester LGA areas. These Plans have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the State Emergency Service Act 1989 (NSW) and are authorised by the MidCoast Council Local Emergency Management Committee in accordance with the provisions of the State Emergency and Rescue Management Act 1989 (NSW). The Greater Taree and Great Lakes Local Flood Plans also cover arrangements for the management of coastal erosion in the council area. In addition to these Flood Plans there is a NSW State Storm Plan as well as a NSW State Tsunami Plan which describe the risk to the community, outlines roles and responsibilities for the NSW SES and supporting agencies and how the SES as the relevant combat agency will manage these events. These Plans along with the EMPLAN provide appropriate multi agency emergency response and planning measures to manage such weather events.
