Flood Risk

Complete
medium RiskZone: Coorong and Lakes flood study area; potential tidal/storm surge inundation

Hindmarsh Island is located within the Coorong and Lakes region, with elevated exposure to tidal inundation, storm surge, and potential barrage overflow from the Murray Mouth complex. While not prone to riverine flooding in the traditional sense, the island's low-lying topography and proximity to estuarine water bodies create meaningful flood risk. Development applications typically require consideration of sea-level rise scenarios and stormwater management.

Planning Controls

  • Consideration of storm surge and tidal inundation from the Coorong estuary and Lake Alexandrina
  • SA Flood Risk Management Plan and relevant Development Plan Overlay provisions
  • Site-specific flood assessment may be required for land development given proximity to water bodies
  • Coastal/estuarine flood modeling and freeboard requirements in accordance with SA guidelines
