Torrens Urban North East Stormwater Management Plan

The City of Port Adelaide Enfield in partnership with City of Tea Tree Gully, Corporation of Town of Walkerville and the City of Adelaide is undertaking this project to develop a Stormwater Management Plan (SMP) for the Torrens Urban North East (TUNE) catchment contributing to the River Torrens. The project has received financial support from the Stormwater Management Authority (SMA).

Stormwater management plans are strategic plans which should provide for the management of stormwater in an integrated and holistic way. They should:

• Identify issues, risks and opportunities relating to stormwater management in a catchment
• Outline the functions and responsibilities of all stakeholders involved in stormwater management, including local government authorities and state government agencies
• Set objectives for the protection and enhancement of the economic, environmental, social and cultural values in a catchment (as they relate to stormwater quality, water security and flood hazard)
• Identify and prioritise investments and initiatives that contribute to achievement of these objectives and address stormwater issues in a considered and coordinated manner
• Outline a plan for implementation of the prioritised investments and initiatives
• Provide a means for monitoring and review.
