The Mill and Workshop Buildings, Burton and South Derbyshire College Flood Risk Assessment July 2012 Version 1.0

1.0 Introduction

RAB Consultants has prepared this Flood Risk Assessment, in support of a proposed development at Burton and South Derbyshire College, Lichfield Street, Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire, DE14 3RL.

Technical Guidance to the National Planning Policy Framework requires a Flood Risk Assessment to be carried out to ensure that new development is safe from flooding and will not increase the risk of flooding elsewhere.

2.0 Site Location

The proposed site includes the Mill and Workshop buildings which are set back from Bond Street and are part of the Burton College Campus, Lichfield Street, Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire, DE14 3RL, Grid Reference SK 2491 2237 (E/N 424915 322376) (Appendix A). Vehicular and pedestrian access is available via Bond Street.

3.0 Site History and Development Proposals

The site consists of a mill building and a workshop building with approximate areas of 150m2 and 245m2 respectively. The mill building consists of four storeys and is currently designated for use as offices. The workshop is a single storey building and currently has an educational use as a painting and decorating workshop, which will remain the same in this development proposal.

The proposal for the mill building is for a change of use to an educational facility which will provide art and design workshops. In addition, the proposal includes a new linking structure built over four storeys between the workshop and the mill building (Appendix B). The proposed linking of the buildings in-fills the gap and provides lift and stair access to the mill. The layout of the existing structures will remain the same, with the exception of the linking structure.

The change of use for the mill building includes an increase in vulnerability on flood risk grounds. This change of use is from a “less vulnerable” building as offices to a “more vulnerable” building as an educational facility, which indicates an increased risk.

The proposed site is located within Flood Zone 3 where the indicative annual probability of flooding is 1% or greater (1 in 100 years or greater annual return period). The proposed development is classed as a “more vulnerable” development in accordance with Table 2 Flood Risk Vulnerability Classification of the National Planning Policy Framework. The application is for a change of use and minor development and therefore a sequential and exception test is not required in accordance with paragraph 104 of the National Planning Policy Framework.

4.0 Flood Risk

The nearest watercourse and primary source of fluvial flooding to the site is the River Trent which has been modelled to show the flood risk around Burton upon Trent. The proposed site is approximately 120m to the west of Peel‟s Cut, a tributary of the River Trent, and approximately 500m to the west of the River Trent. The site lies within Flood Zone 3 as described in the National Planning Policy Framework, with an annual probability of flooding that is 1% or greater.

According to the Environment Agency records, the 1% + Climate Change (1%+CC) annual probability (a.p.) flood level for the site is 46.28m AOD (Appendix C). These figures are based upon the Environment Agency‟s 2D Flood Modelling Study showing an overtopping and breach scenario for River Trent and Tatenhill Brook at Burton upon Trent.

A site visit was undertaken on 23rd April 2012 in order to become familiar with the site and its surroundings. Ground levels, derived from the topographic survey, are shown to range between 45.71m AOD and 45.94m AOD at the mill building and between 46.40m AOD and 46.28m AOD at the workshop building (Appendix B). Comparison between the ground levels and the Environment Agency flood levels suggests that the site of the mill building is expected to flood during the 1%+CC a.p. breach event, however, the workshop building is expected to remain dry. Based on a worst case scenario the deepest flooding expected at the site of the mill building would be approximately 0.57m during the 1%+CC a.p. breach event.

4.1 Climate Change

In assessing the impacts of climate change on flooding from rivers, Table 5 of the National Planning Policy Framework recommends a 20% increase on peak river flows. For this assessment the 1%+CC annual probability flood level shall be used, i.e. 46.28m AOD.

4.2 Previous Flood History

The current owners of the site have no knowledge of the site flooding in recent years.

The Environment Agency‟s records of historic flooding show that the areas close to the proposed site were flooded in 1875, 1954 and 1992 (Appendix C). However these records show flooding to the land and do not necessarily suggest that properties within the historic flood extents were flooded internally. The records indicate that the site itself did not flood on these occasions.

Severn Trent has indicated that there is no history of sewer based flooding at the development location (Appendix D).

The Mill and Workshop Buildings, Burton and South Derbyshire College Flood Risk Assessment July 2012 Version 1.0

4.3 Risk of Flood Defence Breach or Overtopping

The Environment Agency‟s indicative flood map shows that the proposed site is situated in an area benefitting from flood defences and the site visit confirmed that the development is located behind the Burton flood defences. The Environment Agency has estimated the protection given by these flood defences against an annual chance of flooding to be a 0.5% annual probability.

The current Environment Agency 2D model includes a sophisticated combined breach and overtopping analysis of the flood defences at Burton. Breach analysis of the defences has been undertaken at key sites along the River Trent for the 1%+CC breach event, with Breach 5 being the most relevant modelled breach location to the proposed site (Appendix C). The predicted water level for flooding as a result of a defence breach at the site is 46.28m AOD for the 1%+CC a.p. breach event. In the event of a flood defence breach the Environment Agency‟s risk category to people at the mill building ranges between moderate hazard and low hazard (Appendix C). During the 1%+CC breach event, the site of the workshop building is expected to remain dry as it is between approximately 0-0.12m above the flood water level.

4.4 Recommended Finished Floor Levels

In order to afford a level of protection against flooding it is normally recommended that finished floor levels are set 300mm above the 1% annual probability plus climate change (1%+CC) breach level when developing within the breach zone of Burton.

The existing internal floor level at the mill building is 45.99m AOD, whilst at the workshop building the lowest internal floor level is 46.44m AOD. This means that the workshop building is 0.16m above the 1%+CC breach level and so is expected to remain dry. However, the mill building is 0.29m below the 1%+CC breach level and is expected to experience flooding during the breach event. The proposed development does not provide an increase of ground floor level due to the floor-ceiling height constraints.

There are however several factors that serve to mitigate the flood risk:

The area is protected by extensive and well maintained flood defences built to a high design standard.

There is a flood warning service available for this area of Burton which offers a minimum of 2 hours flood warning lead time before the onset of flooding at the site.

Due to the site being a facility within the Burton College campus, a managed evacuation procedure will be available to ensure safe and rapid evacuation of the site.

The Mill and Workshop Buildings, Burton and South Derbyshire College Flood Risk Assessment July 2012 Version 1.0

In an emergency, if evacuation is not possible, safe refuge can be reached in the mill building via internal stairways to the first, second and third floors.

Consideration should be given to incorporating flood resilient measures into the new linking structure between the mill and workshop buildings. Flood resilience measures should also be incorporated where significant renovation works are taking place on existing structures. Flood resilience would offer protection against internal property flooding. More detailed information about flood resilience can be found on the Environment Agency website (www.environment-agency.gov.uk) and in „Improving the flood performance of new buildings‟ (www.planningportal.gov.uk/uploads/br/flood_performance.pdf).

4.5 Safe Access and Exit

Pedestrian and vehicular access from the site is via Bond Street. The main route of egress should then follow Lichfield Street and join the A5189 to the West out of Burton upon Trent. The ground level measurements from the topographic survey have been compared with the Environment Agency‟s modelled levels. This analysis suggests that the road on Bond Street would be flooded to an approximate water depth of 0.68m during the 1%+CC breach event. It is important to note that the site and the surrounding access routes are protected by flood defences with a 0.5% a.p. design standard. It is expected that the access and exit routes will therefore remain dry in all cases, except from the most extreme flood events.

The Environment Agency provides a Flood Warning Service for this area of Burton upon Trent.

It is recommended that the site manager who is responsible for the mill and workshop buildings registers to receive the Environment Agency‟s Flood Warning Service. A detailed Flood Warning and Evacuation Plan should be developed specifically for Burton College.

In an emergency situation when evacuation has not been possible, safe refuge can be attained via internal stairways to the first, second and third floors of the mill building.

5.0 Surface Water Runoff

This proposal is for a change of use and minor development and involves no external redevelopment of the building, with the exception of the linking structure between mill and workshop buildings. The linking structure is located over an existing concrete surface, therefore the impermeable area of the site will not increase following this proposal. Therefore there will be no increase in the rate and volume of surface water runoff from the site.

The Mill and Workshop Buildings, Burton and South Derbyshire College Flood Risk Assessment July 2012 Version 1.0

5.1 SuDS – Sustainable Drainage Systems

Paragraph 1.3.2 from the SuDS manual (C697) discusses the SuDS „management train‟, which is intended to mimic the natural catchment process as closely as possible. Table 2 gives examples of the hierarchy of techniques that can be used to achieve the management train.

Table 2: Hierarchy of techniques and their descriptions Technique Description Prevention The use of good house design and housekeeping measures to prevent runoff and pollution; rainwater reuse/harvesting Source control Soakaways, porous and pervious surfaces, water butts, green roofs Site control Routing water to large soakaways, infiltration or detention basins Regional control Balancing pond, wetlands, swales, retention ponds

Site, regional, source control and prevention techniques are not considered feasible due to the size of the proposed minor development and for the proposed change of use at the site.

Good building design and These techniques are not N rainwater harvesting applicable for the proposed development and are beyond the scope of this change of use and minor development.

Source Control

Porous and pervious These techniques are not N materials/Soakaways/Green applicable for the proposed Roof development and are beyond the scope of this change of use and minor development.

The Mill and Workshop Buildings, Burton and South Derbyshire College Flood Risk Assessment July 2012 Version 1.0

In summary, due to the scope of the minor development and the proposed change of use, there is no realistic opportunity for the application of SuDS techniques at the mill and workshop buildings. In addition, the application for a change of use with a linking structure located over an already impermeable area means that there will be no increase in surface water runoff as a result of this development.

5.2 Conclusion

The proposed site at the mill and workshop buildings lies within Flood Zone 3 on the Environment Agency‟s indicative flood map. The proposal is for a change of use at the mill building to an educational facility providing art and design workshops. Additionally, there will be a minor development in the form of a linking structure between the mill and workshop buildings built over four storeys containing a staircase and lift. As this application is for a change of use, the layout of the existing structures will remain the same, with the exception of the linking structure.

The source of fluvial flood risk at the site is from the River Trent, however the site is well protected by the Burton flood defences. The Environment Agency‟s model suggests that flooding is expected at the site of the mill building during a 1%+CC annual probability breach event, whilst the site of the workshop building is expected to remain dry. Flood waters at the mill building in the event of a 1%+CC a.p. breach are expected to reach approximately 0.57m at their deepest.

The proposed change of use from offices to an educational facility increases the flood risk vulnerability to a “more vulnerable” category. In light of this, it is recommended that measures be introduced to mitigate the risk, including the use of appropriate flood resilience measures and the introduction of a flood warning and managed evacuation plan specific to Burton College.

There will be no increase in impermeable area under the proposal and hence no change in the rate and volume of surface water runoff is expected.

It is concluded that the proposed development is appropriate for the flood risk and is not expected to increase the risk of flooding elsewhere.

6.0 Recommendations

The following actions are recommended:

The site manager who is responsible for the mill and workshop buildings registers with the Environment Agency‟s Flood Warning Service.

A detailed Flood Warning and Evacuation Plan should be developed specifically for Burton College as a whole.

The Mill and Workshop Buildings, Burton and South Derbyshire College Flood Risk Assessment July 2012 Version 1.0

Resilience measures should be incorporated into the new linking structure between the mill and workshop buildings. Additionally where significant renovation works are taking place on the existing structures, resilience construction, design and materials should be used.

Dear Claire RE: Request for information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) / Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (EIR)

Burton College, Burton upon Trent DE14

Thank you for your enquiry which was received on 18 April 2012 and subsequent payment received on 20 April 2012.

Requests for information that is recorded are generally governed by the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA). The information you have requested is environmental and it is therefore exempted from the provisions of FOIA by FOIA s.39(1). We have therefore considered your request under the provisions of the Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (EIR).

Flood Map

The property in question lies within Flood Zone 3 (1% annual probability or 1 in 100 year flood) of the River Trent although the site is protected from flooding, to a degree, by flood defences. As the site is below flood level the developer should be aware of the risk of flooding due to a failure or overtopping of the defence by a more severe event than designed for. Please find enclosed a Flood Map in the vicinity of the property.

Breach stage profile

The provided flood stage data shown on the Breach flood map has been derived from a recently completed 1D-2D linked ISIS-TUFLOW hydraulic model, assuming a 100m long defence breach during the 1 in 100 year design event. Levels are extracted from the 2D floodplain data and are therefore directly applicable at site scale. The enclosed pdf file ‘Combined Breach All Area B’ provides an overview.

Defences

The Defences table enclosed lists the flood defences shown on the enclosed plans, with construction dates. The estimated protection given by these flood defences or by the

Environment Agency, 9 Wellington Crescent, Fradley Park, Lichfield, Staffs, WS13 8RR Customer services line: 03708 506 506 Email: [email protected] www,environment-agency.gov.uk capacity of natural river channels means that the annual chance of flooding in this area is 1 in 200.

Record of Flooding

Examination of our records of Historic Flooding (see explanation below) shows that areas close to the above site were flooded in 1875, 1954 and 1992 as shown on the enclosed historic flood map. Please note that these records show flooding to the land and do not necessarily indicate that properties within the historic flood extents were flooded internally. It is also possible that the pattern of flooding in this area has changed and that this area would now flood under different circumstances.

What are our records of Historic Flooding?

Our records of Historic Flooding show the extents of known flooding from rivers, the sea, and groundwater. It cannot show all the flooding that may ever have occurred – we can only show flooding where we have adequate records. So, just because an area of land is shown outside the extents of our recorded flooding does not mean it has never flooded. As more data on historic flooding comes to light, and as flood incidents occur, then we will record this where we have adequate information to do so.

I hope that we have correctly interpreted your request. Please see the Standard Notice for details of permitted use.

If you are not satisfied with our response to your request for information you can contact us to ask for our decision to be reviewed. If you are still not satisfied following this, you can then make an appeal to the Information Commissioner, who is the statutory regulator for Freedom of Information.
