Description: The Flood Map shows the areas across England and Wales that could be affected by flooding from rivers/from the sea/from rivers and, or the sea. It also shows flood defences and the areas that benefit from certain defences. Flood Map is designed to raise awareness among the public, local authorities and other organisations of the likelihood of flooding, and to encourage people living and working in areas prone to flooding to find out more and take appropriate action.The Flood Map includes the following layers of information:Flood Defences shows those defences constructed during the last five years with a standard of protection equal to or better than 1% (1 in 100) for rivers and 0.5% (1 in 200) from the sea. (Some additional defences area also shown.) Flood Storage Areas shows those areas that act as a balancing reservoir, storage basin or balancing pond. Their purpose is to attenuate an incoming flood peak to a flow level that can be accepted by the downstream channel. It may also delay the timing of a flood peak so that its volume is discharged over a longer time interval.Areas Benefiting from Flood Defences shows those areas that would benefit from the presence of formal flood defences in the event of flooding from rivers with a 1% (1 in 100) chance in any given year, or flooding from the sea with a 0.5% (1 in 200) chance in any given year. If the defences were not there, these areas would be flooded. Flood Zone 3 is the Agency's best estimate of the areas of land with a 1% (1 in 100), or greater, chance of flooding each year from rivers, or with a 0.5% (1 in 200) chance, or greater, of flooding each year from the sea. Flood Zone 2 is the Agency's best estimate of the areas of land between Zone 3 and the extent of the flood from rivers/from the sea/from rivers and, or the sea with a 0.1% (1 in 1000) chance of flooding in any year.For further information, please see HS2-EAG-EV-GDE-000-000009Last Modified by Environment Agency April 2015 (Downloaded 29th May 2015)
