Flood Zone 2
Flood Zone 2 is land where the probability of fluvial/tidal flooding is classified as Medium (assuming no defences), with between a 1 in 100 and 1 in 1000 annual probability of river flooding. Talk to a flood risk consultant to understand what an FRA must demonstrate for Zone 2 approval. Full Zone 2 policy is set out in the GOV.UK flood zone assessment guidance.
Case Example
When buying land in Zone 2, your solicitor will flag the risk. Any planning application here will require a professional FRA to show how you will manage this medium-risk level.
