Flood Risk

While minor local drainage issues may occur during intense rainfall, the area does not fall within a defined high-risk flood study zone, resulting in a low overall flood-risk profile.

- •Millmerran is in the Southern Downs region with no major river flood study overlays comparable to Brisbane River or Lockyer Creek
- •Local drainage and minor watercourse flooding may be assessed under Southern Downs Regional Council planning schemes
- •Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC) standards apply; site-specific stormwater and runoff assessment recommended for development
- •Elevation and inland location reduce likelihood of widespread riverine or coastal inundation
