The report explained the capital programme is needed to reduce the growing number of communities and their homes at risk from local sources of flooding in Essex. It is estimated that a total 108,000 properties are at risk of flooding in Essex. Of these, circa 50,000 are at risk of flooding from local sources. Ms Fox explained that the County Council has put in place a five year capital programme with a budget of £1.5m in year one. Based on an indicative programme, the aim will be to protect circa 18,750 properties over the five years. Work is already underway to align priorities with partners including the Borough/District and City Councils, the Environment Agency and the Water Companies. At the January meeting the Board endorsed the prioritisation criteria which will be used to determine schemes. This prioritisation process will also include a minimum number of 25 properties protected for reasons of value for money. Ultimately, the priority has to be the maximum benefit for most people Ms Fox informed the Board that the new capital programme investment was in due to commence in 2015/2016 not 2016/2017 as stated in the report. Resolved: The Board endorsed the report and welcomed the new money to be invested over five years in a flood prevention capital programme to address residential flooding, including £1.5m in 2015/16.

ECC as both the Lead Local Flood Authority and Highway Authority will works closely at the interface to tackling flood risk. Deborah Fox will provide the list of year 1 schemes and rationale for shortlisting for circulation with papers of the Board meeting.

Feedback from RFCC regional meetings The Board received a verbal update from Deborah Fox, (Interim Director of Integrated Commissioning), on issues arising from recent Regional Flood and Coastal Committee (RFCC) meetings.

  • The Essex Biodiversity Action Plan
    THE ESSEX BIODIVERSITY ACTION PLAN In much of Essex we can still enjoy a great richness of wildlife. Bluebell woods , open meadows with butterflies, birds in our urban gardens, river valleys winding through farmland, and a spectacular coastline .Wild animals and plants surrounding us in our countryside and gardens enhance our quality of life and, together with the habitats and communities they form, help us define what we mean by Essex. This is the biodiversity of Essex ; we so easily take this for granted but action is required if it is to be maintained and enhanced. What is BIODIVERSITY? “Biodiversity : the variety of life.- Biodiversity is all living things, from the tiny garden ant to the giant redwood tree. You will find biodiversity everywhere, in window boxes and wild woods, roadsides and rainforests, snow fields and seashore .” ( Biodiversity : The UK Steering Group Report 1995) Biological Diversity, or biodiversity, is the variety of life that is all around us and all over the world. It encompasses all living things from microscopic organisms to the largest trees. Not just exotic, rare and endangered plants and animals are included, but also those that are found in back gardens, parks and ponds. Biodiversity is also the assemblages of species and their surroundings that we call habitats. Biodiversity is everywhere and we rely on it for our survival. Global Biodiversity and the Rio Challenge In June 1992 leaders of over 150 countries gathered together in Rio de Janeiro for the ‘Earth Summit’. At this conference environmental issues and concerns were addressed, including the loss of the world’s biodiversity.
