Storyline: Residents and government workers in Taree, a city in Australia's New South Wales, began post-flooding cleanup on the weekend as the floodwater receded. Taree is one of the hardest-hit areas in the recent rain-triggered flood. Four consecutive days of heavy rainfall caused the water level of the Manning River in the local area to rise, flooding a large number of houses in low-lying areas and forcing many residents to evacuate. On Saturday, local bridges connecting the two banks of the Manning River reopened to traffic as the water levels dropped. Then, dredging work on the river and local roads began. Many residents returned home to clean their houses and placed damaged furniture and appliances on the roadside for clearing vehicles to transport away. Emergency service authority of the state said on Saturday that early estimates suggest more than 10,000 properties have been damaged in floodwaters in the state's eastern regions. The NSW Police said in a statement on Friday evening that rescue officers found a body inside a burnt-out vehicle at a property on the flood-hit Mid North Coast. It marks the fifth death in the widespread flooding crisis that has hit the Mid North Coast and surrounding regions following consecutive days of torrential rainfall.
