Welcome to the Floodplain Management Authorities website. I am pleased to announce the launch of an innovative website that will revolutionise the way that the Authorities can communicate. This website will play a key role in facilitating information between the 70 member organisations. This will allow members to quickly and easily read about and discuss their projects and success in all floodplain management issues. The NSW Floodplain Management Authorities was established over 40 years ago to promote sound and responsible floodplain management. Its 75 members include all local councils in NSW with significant flooding problems, the two flood mitigation county councils and the three catchment management trusts. The Authorities is accepted by State and Federal Government agencies as representing the interests of floodplain communities in NSW and the authorities responsible for managing the floodplains to reduce future flood losses.

Courtesy Associated Press 16 Mar 2000 After weeks of rain and storms in February, Mozambique's rivers were covering floodplains by the thousands of square kilometers. As people desperately sought higher ground, they were chased out when the waters rose further. With their wells under water, the flood refugees drank polluted water, raising the specter of epidemic. As international agencies and militaries gradually move into position, the death toll is unknown, but probably is in the thousands. The natural disaster capped a year of rapid economic growth after decades of civil war, destroying homes and businesses, killing livestock, and apparently setting the economy back by several decades.

A chemical plant near Prague started leaking Thursday, spewing potentially deadly chlorine gas into the air. Officials estimate the costs of cleaning Prague could surpass $2 billion.

Soon that may be the good news. Changing weather has already dealt another blow: As more moisture moved into the region, clashes in the atmosphere set off lightning that triggered wildfires. Next up: Flash floods. Meteorologists say the monsoon season is due to begin officially any day now. Monsoon is a stretch of time when higher humidity and warm weather combine to bring heavy downpours to the otherwise arid region. Adding insult to injury, heavy rains could devastate the terrain in areas burned by extensive wildfires in June and early July, officials say. Image Gallery Hot is hot The recent heat wave is remarkable in a short-term sense. But meteorologists point out that it is not unusual for summer to be hot, and since official data go back only to 1895, records are broken every year somewhere. Still, as anyone out West knows, it's hot.

Frogmen and firefighters using rubber boats and ropes searched rocky valleys and swollen rivers in the popular Chiri Mountains resort area, where about 60 campers and vacationers were swept away.
