Alternative Sites Consultation

Representation ID: 44161

Received: 07/04/2010

Respondent: Environment Agency

Representation Summary:

The site is occupied by a large area of flood zone 1. However there will be flood plain associated with the watercourses on the site. Currently there is no indicative flood plain information available because the catchments are less than 3.0km2. Flood plain and easements will have to be determined as part of a level 2 FRA. We will need to agree green field rates of run off via substantial control of surface water run off.
