The SES is encouraging the Victorian Government to accept all recommendations made in a report into the 2022 floods.
Mildura and north-west Victoria were among the areas hit hard by the event which saw the Murray rise and some homes and businesses flooded.
Tabled in the Legislative Council yesterday, the report makes 90 findings and 73 recommendations, including improvements to flood governance arrangements and boosting resources for emergency services responding to events such as floods.
The report also makes recommendations to improve flood mitigation, such as a pilot ring levee program, raising or retrofitting homes and improving flood modelling.
The emergency services agency says it relies on volunteers who contribute hours to being prepared and responding to emergencies including floods and storms.
