FLOOD PREVENTION (SCOTLAND) ACT 1961 AS AMENDED by the FLOOD PREVENTION and LAND DRAINAGE (SCOTLAND) ACT 1997 From: DIRECTOR of PLANNING and ENVIRONMENT NORTH LANARKSHIRE COUNCIL REPORT PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE I Subject: FLOOD PREVENTION (SCOTLAND) ACT 1961 AS AMENDED BY THE FLOOD PREVENTION AND LAND DRAINAGE (SCOTLAND) ACT 1997 From: DIRECTOR OF PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENT 1 Date: 7 December 2005 1 Ref: PEAD00097 I 1.0 Purpose of Report This report fulfils the Council’s statutory duties under the above Act to report on measures taken and to be taken to prevent or mitigate flooding on non-agricultural land in North Lanarkshire. A copy of the full report as submitted to the Scottish Executive is held in the Members Library for information. An abbreviated report in the form of a brochure has also been prepared. 2.0 Background This report is the fifth document published by the Department in respect of the Flooding and Land Drainage (Scotland) Act 1997. The purpose of the report is to publicise the Council’s activities since November 2003 with regard to - 0 Measures considered necessary to prevent or mitigate flooding of non-agricultural land; 0 Measures taken to prevent or mitigate flooding of non-agricultural land; and 0 A record of all instances of flooding reported to the Planning & Environment Department occurring since November 2003. The Scottish Executive makes it clear that the primary responsibility for the protection of property lies with the owner. The statutory duties imposed on the Council to assess, where relevant maintain and report on watercourse flooding do not relieve individual riparian owners of their primary responsibility for the prevention of flooding to their property. Even where a watercourse is being maintained in an efficient hydraulic condition this does not preclude the possibility that flooding could still occur. The duty to maintain watercourses does not extend to a duty to prevent flooding by the construction of flood defences. Any works of improvement including alteration to culverts, revetments, barriers are clearly not routine maintenance works. The promotion of schemes of improvement remain permissive and flood prevention schemes promoted under Section 4 of the Flood Prevention (Scotland) Act 1961 are subject to confirmation by the Scottish Ministers. The associated public consultation procedures are defined by statute and where objections are received schemes are open to public inquiry. The Council’s planning policy in respect of flooding is stated in local plans. In accordance with Scottish Planning Policy (SPP) 7 there is a presumption against development where development would create or intensify the risk of flooding 3.0 Sustainability Implications The report on measures taken, and to be taken to prevent or mitigate flooding performs well against the relevant criteria in the sustainability checklist. The main benefits arise H.Wlooding Report to Committee 25 Nov 2005.doc through actions to prevent water pollution and enhance community safety by reducing the risk of flooding. No checklist criteria are adversely affected. 4.0 Specific Comments Assessment of Watercourses There are approximately 89 rivers and burns in North Lanarkshire, two main canals and 35 lochs and reservoirs. Despite the presence of so many inland water bodies, the majority flow freely and do not give rise to flooding problems. Experience in North Lanarkshire has identified the following main reasons for flood risk arising:- 0 Increased rates and volume of run off to burns and streams with restricted capacity; 0 Building of structures (e.g. embankments) which restrict flows and reduce capacity on historic flood plains creating additional flood risk; 0 Progressive development in catchments with an insufficient number and diameter of drainage pipes to cope with peak run off flows; 0 Poor maintenance of culverts, grills, screens and road gullies leading to restriction of capacity during peak flows; and 0 Watercourses and gullies becoming obstructed by flytipping and overgrown vegetation impeding channel efficiency during peak flows. 0 Discharges from overflows in the public sewer system maintained and managed by Scottish Water and subsequent interaction with receiving watercourses. Since the last report a further 43 flood reports have been added to the register. Analysis of these reports indicates that only 30% are related to watercourses and private culverts. Of the remaining 70% many of these are related to problems with land drainage or absence of land drainage and are highly localised not involving large volumes of flood water. It should also be noted that there is no primary legislation covering the nuisance associated with surface water runoff from non-paved surfaces and it is therefore questionable that all of the instances of flooding being reported fall within the remit of the flood prevention legislation. 5. Conclusions The publication of this report fulfils the Council’s statutory obligation in respect of reporting the measures being taken to mitigate the risk of flooding as required by the Flood Prevention (Scotland) Act 1961 as amended by the Flood Prevention and Land Drainage (Scotland) Act 1997. 6.

The city of Glasgow was, quite literally, built on its geology – it may even have been named after one of its rocky features.

Data was gathered from various national and local sources with regard to atmospheric emissions from: road traffic; rail; aircraft; shipping; industrial processes; intensive farming operations; domestic properties; biomass plants; and dusty processes. The screening methods outlined in the technical guidance were used to determine the likelihood that a particular source would result in an exceedence of national air quality standards. The review of new and changed emission sources identified no sources that were likely to

Scottish Planning Policy encourages local, non-statutory designations to protect and create an understanding of the role of locally important landscape have on communities. 1.2 In 2014, as part of the preparation of the North Lanarkshire Local Development Proposed Plan, a review of local landscape designations was undertaken by URS as part of wider action for landscape protection and management. 2. URS Review of North Lanarkshire Local Landscape Character (2015) 2.1 The purpose of the Review was to identify and provide an awareness of the special character and qualities of the designated landscape in North Lanarkshire and to contribute to guiding appropriate future development to the most appropriate locations. The Review has identified a number of Local Landscape Units (LLU) that are of notable quality and value within which future development requires careful consideration to avoid potential significant impact on their landscape character. 2.2 There are two exemplar LLUs identified in this study, Kilsyth Hills and Clyde Valley, which are seen as very sensitive to development. Both of these areas warrant specific recognition and protection, as their high landscape quality would be threatened and adversely affected by unsympathetic development within their boundaries.
