The Livingstone Shire Local Disaster Management Plan (LDMP) has been prepared to ensure there is a consistant approach to Diaster Management in the Livingstone Shire. This plan is an important tool for managing potential disasters and is a demonstrated commitment towards enhancing the safety of the Livingstone Shire community.

This plan has been developed to be consistant with the Disaster Management Standards and Guidelines and importantly to intergrate into the Queensland Disaster Management Arrangements (QDMA). The primary focus is to help reduce the potential adverse effect of an event by conducting activities before, during or after to help reduce loss of human life, illness or injury to humans, property loss or damage, or damage to the environment. I am confident the LDMP provides a comprehensive framework for our community, and all residents and vistors to our region can feel secure that all agenices involved in the Livingstone Shire LDMP are dedicated and capable with a shared responsibility in disaster management. On behalf of the Livingstone Shire Local Disaster Management Group, I would like to thank you for taking the time to read this important plan.
