The Plan covers the Jewells Wetland catchment, and includes the Scrubby Creek, Crokers Creek and Johnson Creek tributaries, and covers parts of the suburbs of Mount Hutton, Tingira Heights, Windale, Gateshead, Bennetts Green, Redhead and Jewells.

The study builds on the 2013 Jewells Flood study and identifies a number of management measures that can be used to reduce future flood risks in the catchment. Once finalised, this document will be used by Council to manage existing and future flood risks and mitigate damage from floods within the area.

Thank you to those who provided feedback.
