<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Land designated and operated to store flood water. The Flood Map for Planning (Rivers and Sea) includes several layers of information. This dataset covers Flood Storage Areas. It shows those areas that act as a balancing reservoir, storage basin or balancing pond. Their purpose is to attenuate an incoming flood peak to a flow level that can be accepted by the downstream channel. It may also delay the timing of a flood peak so that its volume is discharged over a longer time interval. We have assumed that flood storage areas act perfectly and give the same level of protection as when our assessment of the area was carried out. Flood storage areas do not completely remove the chance of flooding and can be overtopped or fail in extreme weather conditions. This dataset is designed to raise awareness of the likelihood of flooding and to encourage people living and working in areas prone to flooding to find out more and take appropriate action</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |

The Flood Map is a designed to raise awareness of flood risk with the public and our partner organisations e.g. the Local Authorities and prompt them to find out more information and prepare. The information on the Flood Map is designed to only give an indication of flood risk to an area of land and is not sufficiently detailed to show whether an individual property is at risk of flooding. This is because we cannot know all the details about each property.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
