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 />
