Flood management advice for developers
Advice for developers
As part of our responsibility as the Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA) under the Flood and Water Management Act 2010, Redbridge is a statutory consultee for surface water drainage proposals for major developments. A major development is one that involves:
- mineral extraction.
- waste development.
- the provision of 10 dwellings or more.
- a site area of over 0.5 hectares where the number of dwellings is unknown.
- a floorspace of over 0.1 hectares or a site area of over 1 hectare.
We encourage developers to contact us as early as possible in the planning process for advice on how to create a high-quality planning application. For more information, visit: Redbridge - Other types of advice.
