DETAILS

TitleJanuary 2011 Flood Event - Erosion caused when the North Pine River flooded DescriptionOn 11 January 2011 a major flood event occurred in the North Pine River. This flood event was the combination of above-average levels of rainfall over an extended period prior to 6 January 2011 and peaked on 11 January 2011, thus impacting on the North Pine Dam and the surrounding catchment areas. The North Pine Dam operators had to open five floodgates on 11 January 2011. This photograph was taken just after 11 January 2011 near Leis Park where trees have subsided into the river because of the erosion of the river bank caused by the North Pine River flooding.Date11 January 2011PhotographerAshford, KellyCollectorMoreton Bay Regional CouncilRecord typePhotographFormat typeDigitalOriginal format colourColour
