Flood risk

The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) requires all local planning authorities to prepare a Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) in consultation with the Environment Agency, to refine information on areas at risk of flooding, taking into account all sources of flooding and the impacts of climate change. The results of the SFRA are used to direct development away from areas at greatest risk of flooding.
