What I am referring to here is not the home page information, or even the dam levels page, but a small part of that latter page that not many people might even refer to. The default setting shows the tick in the right column set to grid three, but you can add individual dam levels so that the level for that dam overlays the main image of total level. Mitigation does not mean prevention. The other issue which luke has belted in his contribution to agnotology is the SST; BoM shows them going through the roof around Australia; I can remember having this same discussion about 2 years ago; Hughes and McLean had some good data then and it is still good now: http://www.warwickhughes.com/blog/?p=191#more-191, http://mclean.ch/climate/GBR_sea_temperature.htm. Opposite that are listed the ‘principles’ (the revision 11 term) embedded into the controls of floods reaching the Wu compartment of the dam storage. Imagine what the public would have thought about that. �o"}^x�ા��$��3E�������Ӂ������a 1�*:��ɠ$��

Wivenhoe was already at 68.55 m at that time, so the manual gave them the authority to release the entire dam’s inflow or 3,500 m3/s (which ever is the lesser, 3,500 m3/s being the maximum non-damaging flow), right from 11 am Sunday morning. Yep,there was a window for greater discharges,but let’s not overstate the potential with lashings of that hindsight. Spangled – really crappy nasty comment – engineers have been hard at work since before Xmas non-stop on 4 river systems going off at once. Repeats of big floods in the same year are what happens in these sits. Vals’ quote from water engineer Ian Chalmers is important.
This paper emulates a method used by WSDOS.
Make some provision for the most dangerous rainfall, that is, deviations of rainfall from the most probable rainfall that would generate greater danger (or consequences, in risk management terminology); Monitor actual rainfalls, continuously, for any deviation from the best rainfall forecast, and amend decisions in response to any such significant discrepancy as well as to any change in the best available rainfall forecast. Had SEQW some foresight (it obviously was not in the “operations manual”) to do a similar thing the previous week before the rain event, we may not have needed the full RC and we would not be having this conversation. here’s an article from a now retired journo who says ‘I guess I have probably seen more floods up close than anyone still alive.
Those releases will continue for days until those flood mitigation compartments are empty. Most parks have picnic seating area in booths, and in those booths they have images of some of the sights etc. Maybe it will become temporary policy option until the dam can be raised,but going below 90% will worry people if the shortfall isn’t made up relatively quickly by the end of the wet season. This loss appears to be due to the failure of the QFCI, and of the WSDOS study recommended by QFCI, to address this issue using the risk management discipline, to actually evaluate the rm control regime that may not have been employed during the 2011 flood.

It would have cause unacceptable flooding to many suburbs along the Brisbane river. The whole point of having a flood mitigation compartment is so you can trade-off flood height with flood duration, so filling the flood compartment with the immediate inflow so it can be released over a longer period of time at lower volume is what the entire mitigation strategy is all about. […] as a means to implicate Labor as being partly responsible for the floods.
For a fraction of that 4 billion they could double the capacity at Wivenhoe and still have the same amount of flood mitigation.
“I tried to warn them about the coming disaster and to urge them before it was too late . Wednesday (9AM) it is at 188.5% Earlier warning allows the RM based operations to affect higher dam releases undertaken much earlier in the flood event. The supermarkets are slowly getting back to normal after the second mad panic rush during the Brisbane event. You are certainly more informed than me (I have not professed to be an expert) and I appreciate yours and Graigos insightful comments.
