<strong>Flood</strong> <strong>Risk</strong> <strong>Assessment</strong> – South Clyde Energy Centre, Glasgow<br />

1 INTRODUCTION<br />

Weetwood were instructed to undertake a <strong>Flood</strong> <strong>Risk</strong> <strong>Assessment</strong> by <strong>Peel</strong><br />

Environmental Ltd in connection with the proposed development of an energy<br />

from waste plant (South Clyde Energy Centre) on a site situated off Bogmoor<br />

Road, Glasgow. The assessment has been prepared in accordance with the<br />

requirements of Scottish Planning Policy (2010) and its supporting guidance<br />

documents including Planning Advice Note 69 (PAN69): Planning and Building<br />

Standards Advice on <strong>Flood</strong>ing. The report has also been prepared with<br />

surface water runoff.<br />
