Community consultation forums
To support this process, community consultation forums will take place over 31 July - 8 August 2025. These sessions will give community members living in the Richmond River catchment a chance to:
- Hear directly from CSIRO about the model and its findings
- Ask questions and engage with technical experts
- Provide input on possible flood reduction options
At this stage, no final decisions about the mitigation scenarios are being made. The views gathered at these sessions will be considered by CSIRO. They will look at what interventions could be modelled using the hydrodynamic model. This consultation is an important opportunity to hear and consider all perspectives.

If you’re unable to attend in person, you can still have your say online. Register your interest and we’ll contact you once the online submission pathway is available on 31 July 2025.
