STRATEGIC FLOOD CELLS
• Consider asset life and cycles of investment
• Multiple interventions possible
Asset Management
• Time our works to optimise value of investment
• Gradual adaptation to climate change
Developing Strategic Options
Policy Assets Protected
Approach Typical Effect
HOLD THE LINE
Low Maintain
existing
Slow reduction in protection
Medium Keep pace with climate change
Some new investment in banks
High Improve standard of protection
New banks, walls, revetments
Targeting Funding
Standard of protection is not guaranteed
Standard of protection will vary overtime
Defra and WAG require good return on funding
Highest benefit/cost ratio and highest number of properties will be first in the queue
Calculations are all based on existing development
Adapting to floodingLandowners have right to protect their own land
Advice / Grants available for making property resilient
Flood warden schemes
OrHabitat creation through land purchase or environmental stewardship
EA strategy and development
EA Funded FRM works
Targets existing development
Homes are top priority
No pre-determined standard of protection
Multiple interventions over time
Long term obligations on habitats
Works under PPS25
For new development
Multiple priorities
Prescribed standards including climate change
Usually one-off opportunity for contributions from developers
One-off requirement for compensatory habitat
