Lustrum Beck Flood Risk Management Scheme

Published 20 August 2014

1. Notice about proposed improvement works

The Environment Agency gives notice that it proposes to carry out work to its flood defence wall on Lustrum Beck, Bishopton Road, Stockton on Tees (NGR NZ 43726 19701).

1.1 Proposed improvement works

The existing wall has been damaged by a vehicle collision and is to be replaced. The opportunity will be taken to raise the level of the wall by approximately 400mm to ensure it is compatible with the other measures the Environment Agency is planning for next year to improve flood protection in the vicinity. Access to the flood embankment will be provided by way of a ramp over the wall.

2. Make a representation

The Environment Agency considers that the works are not likely to have significant effects on the environment and does not intend to prepare an environmental statement. The Phase 1 Habitat and protected species surveys can be obtained by contacting the Project Manager.

If you would like to make a representation in relation to the likely environmental effects of the proposed improvement works you should do so, in writing, within 28 days of publication of this notice.
