Over the past two months, independent engineer Fred Spain, has been reviewing the Carisbrook Levee and Tullaroop Creek.
We have been fortunate to work alongside key community members who have been strong advocates for many years around the protection of Carisbrook. We thank the following reference group members for the data they have shared and the time they have spent with the independent engineer, ensuring he had a comprehensive history of flooding in the town:
Ian Boucher
Greg Corcoran
Trish Coutts
Paula Forbes
Peter Higgins
Judi McKail
Wayne McKail
Keith McLeish
Bryan Perry
Leonie Van Rooyen
The independent engineer has made suggestions including conducting an internal flood study, along with a detailed maintenance program to be developed and delivered on to ensure the levee functions as designed.
Council has been made aware that Entura and Jacobs were not provided with an opportunity to be interviewed by the independent reviewer as part of the review process. Council acknowledges that Entura, North Central Catchment Management Authority, Water Technology were not given the opportunity to respond to the assumptions and findings of the independent review prior to the final report being released to the community on 7 August, 2024.
