The LLFA notes that South Norfolk Local Planning Authority (LPA) has chosen to amend the Environment Agency’s 2013 River Waveney model. The results of the models differ and this results in inconsistency between the two models.
The LLFA is aware that conversations between the Environment Agency and the consultant (JBA) have occurred recently in April and May of 2023. The LLFA encourages the LPA to take the Environment Agency’s additional responses on board in relation to the hydraulic modelling.
In relation to the responses that were provided in the email 18 May 2023, the LLFA is not satisfied the concerns that have been raised have been adequately addressed by the LPA or their consultant. A summary of the responses to our original comments can be found in the full submission.

The LLFA’s Water management team would like to draw the LPA’s attention to an opportunity to seek flood risk management enhancement opportunities for the village of Barford on this site. The site is located at the head of a significant surface water flow-paths through the main village where there is a history of flooding. Previously, highways have put in place to mitigate some of the flooding along Chapel Street that flows into the village. The LLFA advises the LPA to include this opportunity within the sites opportunities to contribute towards alleviating flooding to the elsewhere in the community.
