About Three Counties Flood Risk AssessmentFlood Risk assessments are highly technical reports which every professional associated with the development and property business has to face now and in the future. Three Counties Flood Risk Assessment was borne out of an obvious need for specialists to be available to handle this vital part of the planning procedure. David Eggleton (MD)
The Managing Director is David Eggleton, who has 25 years experience in the private sector of development and property. During that time he acted as a land consultant to Bryant Homes, set up special marketing operations for private developers and been involved in large housing development projects. Such as the development of North East Witney by setting up a consortium of developers to handle the multi-million pound project. And the acquisition of large tracts of land in the Abbeymead estate at Gloucester. In the development projects I have been involved with it became increasingly obvious that there was a special need for Flood Risk Assessment studies to be treated as a distinct “stand alone” service as part of overall planning procedure – he said. “For them to knit in with the dynamics of the whole planning approach. Flood Risk Assessments need a special talent which can only be brought to bear by talented and experienced experts in the business.” Meeting the demands of the Environment AgencyFlood Risk Assessments are increasingly being demanded by the Environment Agency in areas close to watercourses where new property development is planned or existing property is present. The EA does not prepare these assessments but requires that they be carried out by suitably qualified engineers. Their demands for flood protection are stringent and even now they are working on a 20% increase in flood levels because of climate change – and in certain cases beyond that. They have the power to recommend the blocking of planning permissions on technical grounds, which means that planning is now not the sole basis on which an application is considered. Paul Fearnside F.I.C.EThree Counties has accordingly appointed Paul Fearnside F.I.C.E as its consultant to head up its Flood Risk Assessment operation. He is an expert with a life-time of experience in such matters having been the Chief Technical Officer to Tewkesbury Borough Council in Gloucestershire. By virtue of his background he has established an excellent working relationship with the Environment Agency and, of course, council officials over a wide area of the West Midlands Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, Herefordshire and Somerset. David Eggleton commented: “We invite you to use our knowledge and expertise to save you time and allow you to concentrate on your core business, whilst leaving this crucial area to us.” “We could save you money as well, both by competitive fees and our advice on how to avoid possible losses on planning fees.” “We pride ourselves on being market leaders on both fees and professional service.” We're here to helpPlease telephone us on 01452 730818 or contact us.
