The key objectives of the study are to: • Review the Flood Zones presented in the Level 1 SFRA, in particular the Functional Floodplain (Flood Zone 3b); • Review flood defence infrastructure, including its present condition, maintenance and upgrading, consequences of overtopping or failure and the response to climate change; • Model flood risk across the Flood Zones, including the identification of rapid inundation zones, risk to people behind defences and the effect of increased runoff from developments on flood risk; and • Analyse site specific flood risk. In addition guidance notes are provided for the execution of the Exception Test, the preparation of FRAs, Emergency Planning Measures and Dealing with Surface Water Drainage. Outputs This report focuses on development sites within Flood Zones 2 and 3, or sites that pose potential risk to un-modelled ordinary watercourses. A 1D hydraulic model was constructed of the Hoo Brook in order to address misalignments of the Flood Zones. TUFLOW 2D models were constructed to review breach scenarios in Kidderminster and Bewdley. Pluvial analysis was carried out for Kidderminster and Stourport. The Kidderminster dam was also reviewed and analysed for overtopping. A detailed methodology of the Hoo Brook modelling is presented in Appendix 3, with results presented in the form of maps. Outputs from the TUFLOW models are presented in maps and colour–coded tables within the main body of the report. Due to the nature of the project requirements, all models within the study were constructed as new using data obtained from site investigations in conjunction with topographic data derived from LiDAR. Data Sources The data used within this SFRA was documented within the Level 1 SFRA and updated with the addition of new development sites provided after the completion of the Level 1. Supplementary data was collected during site visits undertaken at the end of August 2008 and May 2009. Co-operation This SFRA was carried out for the Council with the co-operation and support of the Environment Agency.

Catchment The area contributing flow or runoff to a particular point on a watercourse. Climate change Long-term variations in global temperature and weather patterns both natural and as a result of human activity, primarily greenhouse gas emissions. Culvert Covered channel or pipe that forms a watercourse below ground level. Design flood level The maximum estimated water level during the design event. Development The carrying out of building, engineering, mining or other operations in, on, over or under land or the making of any material change in the use of any buildings or other land. Enmained Watercourse designated as a Main River Environment Agency Government Agency charged with the protection of the environment Exception Test The final process of the PPS25 Sequential Test (TIERS 3 & 4). It is required when a development application is made for a site within Flood Zones 2 & 3 and no other site of lower flood risk is available.

  • Duty to Co-Operate SOCG Appendix J
    Statement of Common Ground between Wyre Forest District Council and the Environment Agency 1) Introduction Under the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF, 2019), strategic policy making authorities, such as local planning authorities, should produce, maintain and keep up to date a Statement of Common Ground (SofCG) to highlight agreement on cross boundary strategic issues with neighbouring local authorities and other relevant bodies. This SofCG has been produced to support the submission of the Wyre Forest District Local Plan (2016 – 2036). It sets out how Wyre Forest District Council has engaged with the Environment Agency in order to fulfil its Duty to Cooperate requirements. 2) Parties Involved This SofCG has been prepared jointly by Wyre Forest District Council (WFDC) and the Environment Agency (EA). The Environment Agency is a statutory consultee. The SofCG covers those matters agreed and disagreed by the parties with regards to the proposed Wyre Forest District Local Plan (2016-2036), in order to fulfil the Duty to Cooperate requirements as outlined in paragraph 27 of the NPPF. 3) Strategic Geography This SofCG covers all of the Wyre Forest District and has been produced for the purposes of the Wyre Forest District Local Plan (2016-2036), which is due to be submitted to the Planning Inspectorate in Spring 2020. Figure 1 below shows the district boundary of Wyre Forest District. Figure 1: Map of Wyre Forest District 1 4) Background / Duty to Cooperate There has been ongoing engagement between WFDC and the Environment Agency throughout the preparation of the WFDC Local Plan Review.

A revised calculation of the five-year housing land supply at 1st April 2021 has then been made. 1.2 As set out previously, the Council is looking to fix its housing land supply through the Local Plan process until 31st October 2022 and would therefore wish to apply a 10% buffer. However, the Council is aware that the recent Housing Delivery Test result (January 2021) of 84% now means that a 20% buffer should be applied.

  • How Do I Know If I Live Within the Parish of Saint Ambrose? Many
    How do I know if I live within the Parish of Saint Ambrose? Many parents ask us to clarify which parish they live in. This is important for parents who are applying for a school place with a Roman Catholic faith claim because it determines which ‘category’ their child is placed in, and thus ranked, when making an application for a place at the school. Please contact the school if you need further details, for example the boundary for neighbouring parishes name St Ambrose, Kidderminster description Starting in the north at the junction of the River Stour with the Road from Caunsall to Stakenbridge: 1.

    Newsletter – July 2019 Hello everyone, It’s been a busy few months and we are very pleased to say that as of the 11th April 2019, we are legally established as a Community Benefit Society (Wyre Forest Community Land Trust Limited, Reg no: 8090). This has taken some time to achieve, there were quite a number of administrative hoops to jump through to get to where we are now! The group has been busy in other ways, here is a summary of recent activities; ❖ We met with a small group interested in co-housing with whom we shall be working closely. https://cohousing.org.uk/about/about-cohousing/ ❖ We are keen to find more people interested in this – please email us if you would like to know more. ❖ We have held meetings with Wyre Forest District Council and Wyre Community Housing to discuss partnership working for affordable homes. So watch this space. ❖ We have formed a working partnership with Wyre CLT who are managing the Wyre Forest woodland oak and we shall be using some of the oak in our future builds. 1 ❖ https://wyreclt.org.uk/ ❖ We are working with the Cookley and Caunsall Neighbourhood Plan development group to identify (and in future build on) land which would be suitable to meet the housing needs of local residents. https://cookleyandcaunsall.co.uk/neighbourhood-plan/ ❖ We held our official launch event at Kidderminster Town Hall and were very pleased with the turnout. We would like to thank all those that attended our launch event and welcome all our new members.
