This preliminary flood risk assessment (PFRA) report for Warwickshire has been prepared to follow the flood risk regulations 2009, the flood and water management act 2010 and the Environment Agency’s final PFRA guidance published in December 2010. It summarises the findings from the first two stages of the flood risk management cycle for the county of Warwickshire and presents the results of a high-level screening exercise, identifying areas of significant flood risk.
The council have recognised their role as the central point in the management of local flood risk and have strengthened and extended their partnership network to enable the collection, collation and assessment of available historic and future flood risk information for the county.
