Solihull Local Plan (Draft Submission) 2020
Representation ID: 13701
Received: 12/12/2020
Respondent: Environment Agency
We are pleased to have been able to review your Level 2 SFRA (October 2020).
Consider that the Level 2 SFRA adequately considers the risk posed to and from these sites, and that the recommendations from this assessment have been carried forward into the plan, namely to provide flood risk reduction wherever possible and not locate any built development within Flood Zone 2 and 3.
We defer any other flood risk comments on the other sites within the Level 2 SFRA to your internal drainage team as the Lead Local Flood Authority with a remit including surface water flooding and that flood risk from Ordinary Watercourses. We are pleased to see that the LLFA has already been engaged in the drafting of this assessment.
