PITTON VILLAGE FLOOD PLAN

This plan is intended to assist Pitton in preparing for any future flood, giving details of the operational aspects for mitigating the effects of flooding, e.g. protecting property and managing the flood.

Pitton villagers have supported the creation of this plan, together with the establishment of a Support Group and a Flood Warden. Information for anyone affected by flooding, plus the responsibilities of volunteers in Pitton and other organisations are described in the following pages.

The actions expected of each organisation are listed in the plan, but that does not mean to say that the organisations necessarily accept that it is their responsibility to do so.

Flooding is caused by high groundwater

During the flooding that Pitton periodically suffers from • Some houses in the centre of the village are liable to flood. • The High Street and Black Lane suffer from high water levels, which cause closure and inconvenience. • The elderly and less able of the locality suffer hardship and need help. • Some householders require Portaloos, or have to use upstairs facilities. • There is some disruption to business. • Some deliveries cannot be made to the village shop. • Some days children cannot get to schools. • Access becomes difficult to many properties & cars become waterlogged. • Gardens get flooded.

Key contacts for villagers are: Pitton Village Flood Action Group: Flood Warden Rod Coppock 01722 712 469 Deputy Tracy Combes 01722 712 540 Flood Action Group Chairman James Sinclair 01722 712 220 Information Centre - Pitton Village Stores Rachel Morrison 01722 712 213 Salisbury District Council 24-hour emergency service 01722 411676

It is anticipated that the problems caused by flooding will change as the Authorities take various actions. The Flood Plan will be updated to take account of any change of circumstances.

Version 4, December 2007 1 1. PRIOR TO FLOODING

The Flood Warden will annually in the autumn organise as necessary: • A meeting with the District Council, the Environment Agency, Southern Water and the Highways Department for an update on the situation. • The checking of all relevant culverts and ditches, and clearance and removal of any obstacles. • The contacting of all volunteers to check their circumstances are unchanged. • The contacting of those needing help to check their circumstances are unchanged. • The monitoring of the Environment Agency Floodline.

The District Council will annually in the autumn: • Clear the siphon.

Measurements of the water levels are taken and recorded on a regular basis. These records give an early warning of possible flooding: The Environment Agency has an Internet ‘Floodline’: measuring water level at Lopcombe Corner: www.environment-agency.gov.uk Home Page: Regional information (bottom right hand corner). Southern Region Hampshire & Isle of Wight. Water Resources. Latest Water levels. Lopcombe

The Environment Agency does not issue Flood Warnings for this area – it does however issue groundwater information bulletins which will give an indication when a flood threatens. In addition to the above, our information comes from: • Water collecting in the basement of The Pheasant Hotel. The manager will warn us when the water reaches their basement by contacting the Flood Warden/Deputy Flood Warden. [SUSPENDED UNTIL PHEASANT HOTEL IS RE-OCCUPIED] • Water reaching Old Manor Farm before it gets to Pitton. Mrs Jowett will be asked to keep the Flood Information Centre informed. • Water ‘ponding’ in various areas in fields alongside Dunstable Road, and down at Bests Farm. • Parts of Dunstable Road becoming flooded. • Water collecting in Aymers House garage pit. • Aymers Pond beginning to fill and some water collecting in the ditch leading to the siphon. Historically villagers have been aware of certain flooding 14-18 days later when water levels reached a specific level. For example, when the GWL (Ground Water Level) at Lopcombe Corner reaches 94m, flooding is inevitable. At this point the Flood Warden will contact Environmental Health Services at Salisbury District Council, who have undertaken to install pump(s) within 5 days.

Version 4, December 2007 2 2. PREPARING FOR A FLOOD

When he anticipates a flood the Flood Warden will organise: • The ordering of the sand for sandbags. • Putting e-mails/notices round the village warning of disruptions and probable extra car parking on village streets. • Co-ordinating with the Council the delivery of pumps. • Making -up and delivery of sandbags. • Marking the edge of the road where necessary with plastic pegs and tape. • Talking to the relevant authorities and preparing them: Environment Agency Highways Department/Police Salisbury District Council Wilts & Dorset Buses Parish Council Southern Water & Wessex Water Social Services Southern Electric Community Police

Note: Those people living in or needing access to the part of the village prone to flooding might be wise to invest in a pair of waders.

3. DURING A FLOOD

• During the danger period there will be regular checks made for signs of imminent flooding. • The Flood Warden will keep a log book of calls made and actions agreed during the danger period and flooding. In his absence it will be passed to the Deputy Flood Warden. • Volunteers will erect barriers with sandbags where necessary. • The Flood Warden will monitor the waste water situation in the flood risk area and (only) he will liaise with Southern Water concerning the necessity for an emergency pump. • At the first sign of the waters rising in the village, the Flood Warden is to be contacted. Using a telephone twinning system he will alert all those in danger/and raise volunteers for furniture shifting. • The Police, County Council Highways Department and bus Company will be contacted for liaison on warning signs for the road and information on bus services. The police will be informed of any property that is/is to be left empty. • The Pitton Stores will become the Flood Information Centre & Flood Stockroom during opening hours. They will field queries in the first instance. • Alternatively the Flood Warden or Deputy Flood Warden will be available by telephone. • The Flood Warden will organise for the pumps to be monitored on a regular basis and problems reported to the District Council immediately. • Rachel Morrison will liaise daily with the Bus Company – information will be posted in the shop. • There will be space set aside in the Shop for villagers to leave wellies and waders. • The Flood Warden will provide information to Local Authority Emergency Planning Support Groups to enable them to assist and advise. • The water will be measured during the whole flooding event at certain specified points in order to inform the Environment Agency post flooding. • The Flood Warden will supply details of properties flooded, the extent of the flooding and flood levels to the Environment Agency. • In the case of freezing, there will be salt bags kept at Parsonage Farm Barn. • The Flood Warden will keep the District Councillors and local MP informed. • Organise temporary car park for shop • The Flood Warden will, when it is safe to do so, take photos of flooding in relation to fixed points (such as bridges, walls and gates) noting the date, time, location of incident and direction of view, and record roads and properties that have flooded.

Version 4, December 2007 3 4. POST FLOOD

The Flood Warden will: • Investigate flooding and record information including flood levels • Supply details of properties flooded, the extent of flooding, and flood levels to the Environment Agency. (see Appendix 14) • Analyse the flooding event and identify any problems experienced in order to find solutions.

ARE YOU PREPARED FOR FLOODING ?

The Environment Agency’s Floodline is there to help keep you informed of any flood situations in your area, but do you know what to do if your property is at risk ?

Make yourself a Flood Plan so that you are ready to protect you and your family from flooding should the worst happen …

FAMILY FLOOD PLAN

1. Make a list of useful telephone numbers, and keep them in a safe, clear place, close to hand.

2. Find out who, in the immediate area, holds sandbag stocks and where. Keep these details somewhere safe and close to hand.

3. Make a Flood Kit – It is a good idea to have a kit, containing a few essentials, made up and stored where everyone in the house knows where to find it. Your kit should include: Key Personal Documents Wellington Boots/Waders Torch Waterproof Clothing Battery or Wind-up Radio First Aid Kit Mobile Phone Blankets Rubber Gloves Any important medication

If you have children, consider what they will need.

4. Get into the habit of storing valuable papers and belongings upstairs or in a high place downstairs.

5. You should know exactly where to turn off the gas and electricity, and even be able to find them in the dark. Mark the tap or switch with a sticker to help you remember.

6. Make sure the car is parked in a safe place.

7. Make a list of things you need to take with you in case of evacuation. Have a plan for your family pets. Decide NOW where you will go and how you will get there. If you decide to stay in the house but decamp upstairs, make a list of things you will need.
