Greater Wellington's Flood Protection group works with communities to manage flood risk from the region’s rivers and streams.
Our approach is to understand the processes affecting a river/stream and its floodplain within a wider catchment, and to provide a co-ordinated response through our floodplain management plans (in partnership with the community) to reduce the impact of flooding.
