Stage 3 – FPS Analysis

• At a meeting between MWH, SW & MFAS on Friday 25th May, MFAS intimated that digitised conceptual FAS for Forres & Rothes would not be available until autumn 2007. This data is critical to the delivery of the FAS assessment and impacts considerably on the overall programme delivery. Information has been received in word format from SW relating to the Rothes scheme. MWH have also received a CD containing details of the Flood Prevention Schemes for Rothes and Forres from Moray Council, this information was provided in pdf format. Further drawings have been requested in a GIS compatible format.

Programme • Please see attached programme for our latest delivery estimates. The delivery of the Model Build & Verification programme is dictated by the availability of data from MFAS regarding the FAS scheme.
