Development and Flood Risk Sample Clauses

Development and Flood Risk. As outlined earlier, the site lies within flood zone 3b, as informed by the Harrow Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (2012). The Strategic Flood Risk Assessment shows that there is a risk of flooding to the site from the Smarts Brook, due to the culvert capacity being exceeded, causing surface water run off to flow overland. Officers have considered above that the development would meet the requirements of the Exception Test and would not result in an increase in the risk of flooding to the school or surrounding neighbouring properties. Detailed calculations have been provided which determine the likely flood depth at the site, based on a worst case scenario, an event that may occur if the culvert were to be 100% blocked. The FRA shows that flooding to the site can be mitigated through a range of measures. To mitigate for flood risks the new building will be raised above the surrounding ground level by 310mm above the worst case flood level, taking account of climate change. Areas of flood compensation are also being provided on site in advance of construction at a level equal to that lost by the new building. In the event of a flood the water displaced by the construction of the new school building will be routed to the area provided as flood compensation. The surface water will be collected using grated manhole covers and via other drains within the site. It will be routed, through a 450 mm diameter pipe, to the attenuation crates below the MUGA. In the event of the flooding occurring when the attenuation is full (i.e. providing attenuation following a rainfall event) surface water transferred to the storage area will be able to rise through the permeable construction of the MUGA and flood the MUGA, thus providing the required flood compensatory storage. Officers from the Councils drainage team are satisfied that the development will therefore have no detrimental effect on the capacity of flood storage within flood zone 3b as any volume that is lost through the construction of the new building will be compensated elsewhere within the site. Furthermore, the redevelopment of the site also provides the opportunity to improve the surface water drainage regime at the site to try to replicate (as far as practicable) the natural drainage regime for the site. At the moment the existing buildings have uncontrolled surface water discharge. However, the proposed surface water strategy attenuates the surface water run-off from the entire site, including the school bui...
