Kingsbridge IUDM & Flood Analysis<\/h3>\n
This report was produced by South West Water (SWW) in partnership with Devon County Council (DCC) and the Environment Agency (EA). The purpose of it is to better understand the level of flood risk experienced in the town, the interactions of the multiple sources present and to determine if any long term strategic solutions could be identified to give benefit across these multiple sources.<\/p>\n
This is a technical report that examines risks and opportunities, it contains recommendations but at this point in time no actions leading from it have been committed to by the partners. The decisions to progress with any options will be determined by the partners, evaluating the benefits of the options against their ability to be progressed on technical, environmental, economic and social grounds.<\/p>\n
The report is available to be downloaded as a PDF here.<\/a><\/p>\nFlooding Task Group<\/h2>\n
The Place Scrutiny Committee set up the Flooding Task Group to examine how the Devon Local Flood Risk Management Strategy is being implemented, how all the risk management authorities are working together and to reduce the risk of further flooding.<\/p>\n
