Policy EN6: Flood Risk Management
(iv) Proposed flood protection measures should have full regard to sensitive areas
designated with specific nature conservation and biodiversity interests such as RAMSAR, SAC, SPC, LNR or SSSI.
NE is pleased to see point (iv) in the Flood Risk Management policy. We would like to see reference to flood risk management taking account of natural coastal processes particularly in undeveloped stretches of the coastline and in relation to nature conservation sites where these processes are fundamental to the interest features of the site.
