The City is undertaking a survey of landowners/occupiers who own livestock in the City of Rockingham to assess their level of emergency preparedness. Thinking about emergency preparedness will assist you to plan for emergency situations to keep your animals/livestock safe.
There are two surveys; one for private landowners/residents and the other for commercial entities. Please take the time to complete a survey to reduce the impact of disasters and help improve the resilience of the Rockingham community.

We would like all of our residents to consider their emergency preparedness, relevant to their personal circumstances. Our community is at risk of encountering an emergency at any time, from bushfires to storms.
