Ashfield District Council: Flood Risk Assessment

Flood Risk Assessment

The Draft Strategic Flood Risk Assessment for Ashfield provides an overview of the flood risk for the District

The Strategic Flood Risk Assessment (SFRA) for Ashfield is an overview of the flood risk for the District. It does not provide specific flood risk information for individual development sites.

Its purpose is to refine information on areas of the District that may flood and to provide a risk-based approach that steers development away from areas of high flood risk.

The SFRA is a non-statutory document but it forms part of the evidence base informing the Local Development Framework and individual planning applications.

The consultation period for the draft document is 16th June to 16th July 2008.

This is your opportunity to let us know your views, or identify and locations in Ashfield that flood which have not been set out in the document.
