Hi Lisa
We have made a couple of minor changes to the EMA Content below but otherwise comfortable. I have received approval from the Controller to send once the bdc website has been updated. I will give you a call to discuss to ensure you are comfortable with the proposed changes and process in about 10 min.
Kind Regards
Hamish

All good I would just remove the word ‘in’ as highlighted to make sure people don’t evacuate to the Domain.
Will you send to Hamish – I have ccd him here.
You see the map below that it will be sent to.

Hi all
I have added the proposed EMA messaging for Buller River Flooding to the TRAINING and LIVE Systems and linked this to both the WestCoast and NEMA Groups. Please note that on sending a message we would need to capture the Vodafone tower to the SW of Westport as illustrated in the map below. This is just a custom area.
Kind regards
Hamish
