Flood levels within the Fitzroy Crossing, Mount Barnett and Christmas Creek areas are fallingAs of Sunday morning, 233 people have been rescued, evacuated or relocated
Water levels have substantially fallen since but WA Emergency Services Minister Stephen Dawson said the once-in-100-year event is far from over."There is a massive, massive job ahead of us … we've now got 250 people working on this."Mr Dawson said a rapid damage assessment and clean-up plan had been completed but it could take weeks or months to deal with the destruction left behind.
"[But] until we can safely get out to do the work, we really won't know the true extent of damage and what work lies ahead." Rainfall and strong winds have eased across the catchment, with the remnants of tropical cyclone Ellie drifting away from the region and across to the Northern Territory border."Yesterday, Fitzroy Crossing felt like London Heathrow Airport with the numbers of planes and helicopters flying in and out of it," he said.At Broome airport, 580 kilograms of frozen food was packed into a single-engine aircraft bound for Fitzroy Crossing on Sunday.
"Hopefully it doesn't get any worse and it's just dispersing either side into the flood plains and the bridge itself will remain hopefully unscathed," she said Emergency Services Minister Stephen Dawson and DFES staff met with the Fitzroy Crossing community on Saturday.
