2. Not Justified
3. Not Effective
4. Not Consistent with National Policy

ECC as the Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA) for BBC consider that the inclusion of site specific text within the supporting text of the site specific policies, in particular, including links back to the sustainable drainage and flood risk policies in the Local Plan, will provide clarity to applicants and decisions makers of the need for consideration of flooding matters at the beginning of the planning process.

Clarification in respect of Floods and SuDS should be inserted after paragraph 9.196, in line with paragraphs 159 and 160 of the NPPF.

This reflects ECC’s Reg.19 Rep 22485 and the position in the Statement of Common Ground (F17D) between BBC and ECC.
