Benbecula (Potentially Vulnerable Area 02/06) Benbecula (Potentially Vulnerable Area 02/06) Local Plan District Local Authority Main Catchment 02 Outer Hebrides Comhairle nan Eilean Siar Benbecula Coastal Background This Potentially Vulnerable Area (PVA) The main access route, the A865, runs comprises the entire island of down the centre of the PVA, with minor Benbecula. It has an area of roads and small populated areas spread approximately 76km² (Figure 1). mainly on the western side of the island. The airport which provides an important Topographically, the area is low-lying transport link is located close to the coast with numerous lochs throughout the on the northwest of the island. PVA. To the west the PVA is fringed by dunes. The total Annual Average Damages (AAD) for all flood sources is £469,000. Nearly 80% of the damages are attributed to coastal flooding, with river flooding contributing 20% of damages (Figure 2). Figure 2: Annual Average Damages by Figure 1: Benbecula Potentially Flood Source Vulnerable Area This area was designated as a PVA due to flood risk to properties, roads, Benbecula airport and to cultural heritage sites based on information available at the time of the National Flood Risk Assessment in 2009. Designation as a PVA means that further investigation of that flood risk was required. This has been carried out based on the flood hazard and risk maps published by SEPA in January 2014 together with input from the Local Plan District Partnership. Summary of Impacts from all sources of flooding Over 65% of the Annual Average Damages (AAD) result from flooding to residential properties, with a smaller proportion of damages coming from flooding to non- residential properties, agriculture, roads. Most of the assets at risk of flooding lie to the west of the A865. This includes residential and non-residential properties at Creagorry and Lionacleit. The A865 itself is known to flood at Gramsdale as are the B892 at Pol na Cran and the B892 at Balivanich where waves cause the carriageway to be blocked by debris. A number of cultural heritage sites are identified as at risk, all of which are Scheduled Ancient Monuments and include prehistoric domestic and defensive sites. Cultural heritage sites do not contribute to the AAD total as it is difficult to quantify a monetary value for them. Areas of environmentally designated sites are at risk of flooding. The sites affected include Aird and Borve, Benbecula Special Protection Area (SPA) and West Benbecula Lochs Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). Table 1 presents a summary of the receptors at risk from all sources of flooding in the different return periods (different probabilities of flooding in any one year). The contribution from the different receptors to the overall damages (by return period) is shown in Figure 3. Figure 4 shows the location of receptors that are at medium to high risk of flooding from all sources in the PVA.

There is also a rock revetment further south of the town at Pol na Cran. A rock wall situated on the foreshore north of Uachdar provides protection to agricultural land from inundation by the sea. Shingle banks on the west coast of Nunton and northwest coast of Aird also protect agricultural land from inundation by the sea. Sand dunes provide natural protection to the airport, agricultural land and roads at Balivanich, Nunton, Griminish, Torlum and Lionacleit. Gualan Island situated to the west of the South Ford acts as a barrier island providing protection to the inner coastline from Atlantic storm waves but was breached during the January 2005 storm and remains in a severely eroded state. The Benbecula Main Drain provides drainage to low-lying land in the west of Benbecula and has outfalls controlled by floodgates in Balivanich to the north and Lionacleit to the southwest. Another drainage canal, also controlled by a floodgate, flows from south and east of the airport to Uachdar in the north of the island. Maintenance of both of these drainage systems is important and responsibility for this is shared between Stòras Uibhist, Scottish Government Rural Inspectorates and Payments Division (SGRIPD), Scottish Water and local crofters. The recently reconstructed causeway at North Ford maintains transport links between Benbecula and North Uist. The South Ford Causeway maintains transport links between Benbecula and South Uist. Comhairle nan Eilean Siar takes flood risk into consideration as part of decisions related to land use planning, as outlined in Scottish Planning Policy. This includes ensuring that new developments are not permitted in areas at risk of flooding and that all new developments do not increase flood risk elsewhere. Floodline, SEPA’s flood warning service, provides flood alerts for the Outer Hebrides.

    CASE HISTORY Ref: UK / CH / CP — Rev:03, February 17 COASTAL EROSION PROTECTION AT AIRPORT ISLE OF BENBECULA, SCOTLAND, UK COASTAL PROTECTION Product: Polymeric Woven Gabions & Reno® Mattresses Problem Located in the Outer Hebrides, the Isle of Benbecula is among the most westerly places in the British Isles. It is exposed to the constant erosion and storm force winds of the Atlantic Ocean. This coastal erosion was encroaching on the South Western perimeter of Benbecula airport, a vital link with the mainland for those living on the Island. Client, Highlands and Islands Airports Ltd wanted to limit this erosion, thereby protecting their airport operations. Solution Project Consulting Engineers, Pick Everard designed a robust revetment that could withstand the exposure conditions. The 500m long revetment structure would stabilise and protect the sand dune system. 0.5m thick Reno Mattresses were selected to protect the sloped revetment and a low height crest wall constructed from gabions would retain the runway and control wave Location of the Isle of Benbecula overtopping. A similar solution had been adopted successfully at a MOD Firing Range elsewhere on Benbecula Due to the dynamic loading conditions and potential for the foundation conditions to change over the life of the structure, there was the possibility of differential settlement. Therefore, double twist woven steel wire mesh gabions were selected as their inherent flexibility would enable the structure to accommodate differential settlement without sustaining damage. Preserving the natural shoreline, the box gabions and heavy Reno Mattresses were filled with more than 8,000 tonnes of locally quarried stone. These heavy revetment mattresses, provided a natural looking solution, which would soon accrete sands and silts in which vegetation can establish.

  • Comhairle Nan Eilean Siar 2013/14 Emergency Planning Annual Report
    COMHAIRLE NAN EILEAN SIAR 2013/14 EMERGENCY PLANNING ANNUAL REPORT 1. INTRODUCTION This is the second annual report detailing the Emergency Planning Service within Comhairle nan Eilean Siar. It covers the financial year 2013/14 and details the framework and activities undertaken to support and deliver the statutory function across the Comhairle and wider Community. We live in a complex and increasingly interdependent society. Whilst this brings many benefits, it also leaves us, potentially, more vulnerable to a number of challenges. These challenges take many forms, both new and old. Irrespective of the nature of the challenge, maintaining the continuity of our way of life or returning to relative normality after a disruptive event, requires resilience. Resilience is defined as “the capacity of an individual, community or system to adapt in order to sustain an acceptable level of function, structure and identity”. In all of this, a robust civil contingencies planning process is a key factor in establishing resilience. 2. LEGISLATION 2.1 The Civil Contingencies Act 2004 The Civil Contingencies Act 2004 seeks to minimise disruption in the event of an emergency and to ensure that the UK is better prepared to deal with a range of emergencies. The Act applies to the whole of the UK, reflects the various devolution settlements and is separated into two substantive parts: • Part 1: focuses on local arrangements for civil protection, establishing a statutory framework of roles and responsibilities for local responders; • Part 2: focuses on emergency powers, establishing a framework for the use of special legislative measures that may be required to deal with exceptionally serious emergencies.
