Chief Executive’s Response & Recommendation
Comment on Specific Areas and Maps City Docks
These observations are acknowledged and welcomed. Recommendation: No change.
The OPW welcomes objectives number 10.34 and 10.35 regarding the implementation of SuDS and Flood Defence measures in the South Docks Drainage Strategy, and the incorporation of similar measures in the North Docks Masterplan Section 10.90 of the plan refers to new bridges connecting Kent Station to the South Docks, at the Eastern Gateway, and at Water Street. It should be noted that there are restrictions on the construction, replacement or alteration of bridges and culverts over any watercourse, and that appropriate consent from the Commissioners is required under Section 50 of the Arterial Drainage Act 1945 and EU (Assessment and Management of Flood Risks) Regulations SI 122 of 2010. Comments on Maps Specific comments are made in relation to Map 01, Maps 03-09, Maps 11- 16 and Maps 18-19 – in Volume 2 Mapped Objectives of the Draft Plan.
A finer granularity to the Justification Tests provided in Table 5 of the SFRA report will be provided, making more specific reference to the areas referred to. If a re- examination Draft Plan’s Land Use Zoning Objectives against the SFRA’s Flood Risk Zones in the context of the requirements of the Guidelines identifies any inappropriate instances of land use zoning, that are not justified, they will be amended accordingly. Recommendation: (i) Subject to review. Provide finer granularity to the Justification Tests provided in Table 5 of the SFRA report making more specific reference to the specified locations.
