One of Greater Wellington’s key roles is to help communities protect themselves from the effects of natural hazards. To do this, our communities need to understand the risk from natural hazards and have affordable and acceptable management solutions in place. We also want to ensure that inappropriate developments don’t create new problems.

Identifying hazards, such as those caused by river flooding and erosion, is the responsibility of local and territorial authorities under the Resource Management Act. This information sheet tells you about the flood and erosion hazard work Greater Wellington has undertaken on the Hutt River, what the risks are, and what you can do to manage them.
