NI-wide·PPS 15 Planning and Flood Risk (Revised)

Development close to flood defences will be resisted as such land will often be low lying and therefore the most susceptible to flooding. Also, it may need to be available for temporary flood storage

NI-wide·PPS 15 Planning and Flood Risk (Revised)

Vulnerable groups would generally include the young, old and infirm. Flood warning and evacuation procedures may be difficult to implement for people with disabilities or those whose mobility is other

NI-wide·PPS 15 Planning and Flood Risk (Revised)

Development proposals for essential infrastructure, such as for emergency services / emergency depots, power supply and telecommunications will be resisted because access and uninterrupted operation c

NI-wide·PPS 15 Planning and Flood Risk (Revised)

Development likely to give rise to significant levels of environmental pollution in the event of damage caused by flooding will be discouraged because of the residual flood risk in defended areas. The

NI-wide·PPS 15 Planning and Flood Risk (Revised)

Development involving a significant intensification of use, such as the conversion of a single dwelling unit to a number of apartments, would be liable to expose more people to the residual flood risk

NI-wide·PPS 15 Planning and Flood Risk (Revised)

As indicated in paragraph 6.20, infilling within the undefended coastal flood plain will be considered as an acceptable flood mitigation measure as the loss of storage area will have a negligible effe

NI-wide·PPS 15 Planning and Flood Risk (Revised)

Due to the risk of rapid inundation in the event of reservoir flooding and the limitations of certain vulnerable groups to react promptly to flood warning and evacuation procedures, the policy operate

NI-wide·PPS 15 Planning and Flood Risk (Revised)

Any proposed development for essential infrastructure, such as for emergency services / depots, transport or utilities and also development for the storage of hazardous substances will need to demonst

NI-wide·PPS 15 Planning and Flood Risk (Revised)

The replacement of a building within a flood inundation area will generally be acceptable as in most cases this ought not to affect the potential future flood risk area. Where the Flood Risk Assessmen

NI-wide·PPS 15 Planning and Flood Risk (Revised)

A Flood Risk Assessment will be required for all development proposals, except for minor development, within the potential flood inundation areas of controlled reservoirs. This must address the contro

NI-wide·PPS 15 Planning and Flood Risk (Revised)

The building structure is designed using flood resistant materials that are able to reduce or stop the infiltration of water through the external walls. Solid walls can be constructed instead of cavit

NI-wide·PPS 15 Planning and Flood Risk (Revised)

This would also apply to gas, oil and water supplies so as to avoid pulled joints and leaks, which can lead to contamination and pollution.

NI-wide·PPS 15 Planning and Flood Risk (Revised)

Resistance sometimes known as 'dry-proofing', this relates to how a building is constructed to prevent flood water entering the building or damaging its fabric.
