Request replacement of paragraph 9.136 to ensure factual representation of the current position in respect of flooding, in line with paragraphs 155 and 156 of the NPPF.
Replace paragraph 9.136 with the following wording:
The site falls within the Brentwood CDA and is at potential risk of flooding from surface water as show on the EAs Risk of Flooding from Surface Water Maps. Any development within this area should be directed away from areas of existing flooding and where possible should try to have a positive impact on existing areas of flood risk downstream of the development. Early engagement with the LLFA in this area is critical to ensure that existing and potential flood risk is properly managed.
