Bulee zoning & planning overlays

A planning-constraint profile of Bulee (Shoalhaven, NSW) - 56.01 km², mapped from live council and state overlay data. This suburb is highly constrained on the overlays we could measure - no flood mapping covers this suburb, so this is not a suburb-wide verdict.
Profile updated 26 September 2026.

Elevation hillshade with street names, clipped to Bulee's boundary, with the bushfire and environmental overlays drawn on top. Magenta is where aircraft were observed in the sampled period, brightest below 3,000 ft. No flood layer is drawn because we hold no flood mapping for this area.

Aircraft noise and flight paths over Bulee

Two different things, kept apart on purpose. The ANEF contour is the planning instrument - a forecast published per airport that planning schemes use to control noise-sensitive development. Observed overflight is what a sampled aircraft-tracking feed actually recorded over the suburb - where aircraft flew, how low and how often.

Across its 56.01 km², Bulee is highly constrained by the planning overlays we hold. We hold no flood mapping covering this suburb, so no flood figure is shown - that is a gap in our data, not an all-clear. Of what is mapped, 100% is flagged bushfire-prone. There is 1 heritage-listed site on record, and the dominant land-use zone is National Parks and Nature Reserves.

Bulee planning - frequently asked

Is Bulee flood-prone?

We don't yet hold flood mapping covering Bulee, so this page can't say how much of the suburb is flood-affected - that is a gap in our data, not an indication that the suburb is free of flood risk. Shoalhaven is the authority to check for flood mapping in this area.

Is Bulee bushfire-prone?

Around 100% of Bulee is mapped as bushfire-prone, compared with a Shoalhaven average of 90%.

Is Bulee under a flight path?

Aircraft were observed over about 7% of Bulee in the period sampled, but only above 3,000 ft - the lowest measured was 3,000 ft. Traffic is sampled rather than watched continuously and flight paths change with runway use, weather and season; the ANEF contour is the planning instrument.

What is the zoning in Bulee?

The dominant planning zone in Bulee is National Parks and Nature Reserves, though the suburb also includes Rural Landscape and Environmental Conservation.

Does Bulee have heritage-listed places?

Bulee has 1 heritage-listed place on record.
