Frequently Asked Questions
We can provide comprehensive flood risk assessments, flood mapping, S19 investigations, flood resilience surveys and Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) reports to help local authorities make informed decisions and manage flood risks in their communities.
A Section 19 Flood Investigation is a critical process carried out by Lead Local Flood Authorities (LLFAs) under the Flood and Water Management Act 2010. When a significant flood event occurs, this investigation ensures that the causes and impacts are thoroughly examined, and appropriate measures are identified to mitigate future risks.
Yes, we assist Local Authorities in ensuring that developments meet the requirements of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), including guidance on sustainable drainage, flood risk management, and risk of contaminated land.
We run regular CPDs on a variety of environmental topics – upcoming dates can be found here. We can also offer tailored CPD to your organisation.
