Disaster Recovery Services Western Australia

Western Australia is Australia's most cyclone-exposed state. The Pilbara, Kimberley and Gascoyne regions are directly in the cyclone belt, receiving an average of several tropical cyclones per season. Communities from Broome through Port Hedland, Karratha, Carnarvon and Geraldton face recurring cyclone and severe tropical weather damage each year.
