My concern is about plot H50 in the modified plan - the paragraph below summarises my concerns.

The concern is that the Sustainability Survey Appendix 3 acknowledges that the steeply sloping site is adjacent
to an area of flood risk in the existing village - this is due to surface water run off into a brook called the
Pingle. This is confirmed in the Environment Agency Flood Maps (latest edition 2013) as a significant area of risk
and the Survey states that sufficient mitigation will be available (using a Sustainable Urban Drainage scheme (SUDS)).
It does not make clear whether this has been assessed by the Environment Agency since over £0.9 Million was spent
early in 2013 to provide a second flood mitigation scheme for the existing problem following a failure of the
first mitigation scheme in 2007 resulting in extensive flooding of houses adjacent to the Pingle.
It has also been acknowledged to residents in adjacent low lying parts of the village (New Street and Ladycroft)
by Severn Trent that the surface drains and sewer system is inadequate to cope with heavy rainfall at present.
I presume that this will need major refurbishment and upgrading in order to cope with the output from 95 more houses.
There is also no mention of the effects that removal of most of Cubbington Wood by the building of HS2 may impact on run off into the Pingle.

I am very concerned that all these factors may not have been take into account in terms of risk to the rest of the village and the cost of major further upgrading of sewers and surface drains off site.
