NBN News | FLOOD AFFECTED LANDOWNERS URGED TO LOOK FOR RIVERBANK EROSION

Local Land Services is urging property owners to be on the lookout for riverbank erosion after severe flooding across parts of New South Wales. Louise Orr from Local Land Services Natural Resource Management says erosion damage on riverbanks, floodplains and gullies can be significant after these kinds of events. “Erosion damage is often accelerated after severe flooding, particularly if there is limited vegetation in place to bind the soil together,” she said. “Now that flood waters have receded, repairing and the ongoing management of riparian zones is crucial to the long-term recovery process.” Weeds should also be managed to avoid smothering native vegetation, which can leave banks susceptible to future erosion.
