  1. From Policy to Strategy Graham Quarrier Project Manager, Environment Agency

  2. Aims of the strategy • Develop policies into workable solutions • Decide protection required for each area • Alignments and type of defence • 100 year investment plan

  3. Asset Management • Time our works to optimise value of investment • Gradual adaptation to climate change • Consider asset life and cycles of investment • Multiple interventions possible

  4. Developing Strategic Options

  5. Targeting Funding • Standard of protection is not guaranteed • Standard of protection will vary overtime • Defra and WAG require good return on funding • Highest benefit/cost ratio and highest number of properties will be first in the queue • Calculations are all based on existing development

  6. Adapting to flooding • Landowners have right to protect their own land • Advice / Grants available for making property resilient • Flood warden schemes Or Habitat creation through land purchase or environmental stewardship

  7. EA strategy and development

  8. Integrating the strategy with development • EA strategy is what it can do alone (baseline) • Integration with LDFs (evidence base) • Contributions can change the priority of works • Possible “Roof tax” arrangements
