Dear Chris,<br />
Re: Proposed Residential Development at <strong>Field</strong> <strong>Farm</strong>, Stapleford, Nottingham – Flood<br />
Risk Assessment and Drainage Strategy<br />
Further to your recent enquiry I have reviewed the status of our Flood Risk Assessment and<br />
Drainage Strategy: Rev A (FRA) for the above site dated November 2011.<br />
This document was written to comply with PPS 25: Development and Flood Risk. The National<br />
<strong>Planning</strong> Policy Framework (NPPF) was published on 27 March 2012. This replaced PPS 25.<br />
The NPPF was supplemented by the Technical Guidance to the National <strong>Planning</strong> Policy<br />
Framework which details guidance of Flood Risk Assessment. This new guidance document is<br />
very much in line with the old PPS 25 and its companion guide. Therefore in summary although<br />
the references in our existing FRA are to PPS 25 the recommendations of this report are still<br />
current.<br />
Our FRA was submitted to the Environment Agency (EA) in 2011 in connection with the<br />
planning application 11/00758/OUT. The EA did not object to the FRA or other planning<br />
documents but raised a number of issues that would need addressing at the detailed design and<br />
construction phases. I have recently contacted the EA in relation to the currency of their<br />
comments and they have not raised any further issues.<br />
I also confirm that I have reviewed the new Draft Masterplan Drawing C9006.12.802 Rev D.<br />
This drawing shows less detail than the masterplan drawing in the FRA but it has very much the<br />
same conceptual approach and therefore appears to be compatible with the FRA.<br />
I trust that the above is sufficient to give you an appraisal of the current status of flood risk<br />
assessment and drainage strategy for this site. If you require any further clarification on this<br />
matter please do not hesitate to contact us.<br />
Yours sincerely,<br />
For and on behalf of BSP Consulting<br />
