Flood Risk
Peregian Beach is a coastal suburb on the Sunshine Coast with generally moderate to low flood risk. While located within the Noosa River catchment and subject to local stormwater drainage constraints, the elevated topography and distance from major riverine flood paths limit regional flood exposure. Coastal inundation and local stormwater flooding present greater risk than riverine sources.
Planning Controls
- •Compliance with Noosa Shire Council flood-prone land provisions and DCP requirements
- •Finished floor level requirements relative to probable maximum flood (PMF) for local drainage areas
- •Stormwater management and detention basin design for increased rainfall intensity
- •Potential requirement for flood impact assessment if within mapped local drainage areas
