This document may be reproduced with prior permission of the Environment Agency. Summary The Lincolnshire Shoreline Management Plan (SMP) established a policy of ‘hold the existing defence line’ for the Lincshore coastline. As part of the Lincshore Coastal Defences Strategy (covering Donna Nook to Skegness) we are proposing to implement the SMP. To deliver the strategy, beach nourishment material will continue to be placed annually along the coastline between Mablethorpe and Ingoldmells. A performance review of the beach nourishment project has been undertaken, in preference to a full strategy review, which supports the Lincshore project, enabling a 0.5% annual probability of flooding (1 in 200 year return period) standard of protection along the frontage over a period of 100 years.

  • 66 Part Three
    PART THREE - EAST LINDSEY STRATEGIC FLOOD RISK ASSESSMENT 6.0 FLOODING FROM OTHER SOURCES 6.1 In addition to the threat of flooding from tidal and fluvial events, other causes of flooding have been identified in the District. These are principally:- Surface water flooding – occurs as a result of heavy rainfall and overland flows/run-off, overwhelming the drainage capacity of the local area. Sewer flooding - happens when sewers are overwhelmed by heavy rainfall or when they become blocked and can result in land and property being flooded with water contaminated with raw sewage. Rivers can also become polluted by sewer overflows. Groundwater flooding - this occurs when water levels in the ground rise above surface levels and is influenced by the local geology. It is most likely to occur in areas underlain by permeable rocks, called aquifers. Reservoir flooding – where large volumes of water are stored above ground level. In the unlikely event of failure it would result in a large volume of water being released very quickly. 6.2 The risk of floods from other sources highlighted by recent events most notably in the summer of 2007 and 2012 where as a result of a combination of unusually high rainfall over a short time period and the inability of the systems in place to discharge the quantities of water involved, resulting in river, surface water and sewer flooding. 6.3 The 2007 events led to the introduction of the Floods and Water Management Act (2010) and the establishment of the Lincolnshire Flood Risk and Drainage Management Partnership. As the Lead Local Flood Authority the County Council will produce and implement a Local Flood Risk Management Strategy using the network of local Flood Risk and Drainage Management Groups.
