With the aim of promoting sustainable development, each WMA Member Board will aim to review and comment on applications which may increase flood risk within the Board’s Internal Drainage District (IDD) in one or more of the following ways: 
  • The site is adjacent to an Adopted Watercourse 
  • Works may be proposed to alter any Ordinary Watercourse 
  • The proposals may result in the displacement of flood water 
  • The proposals may introduce water to the IDD 
  • The area is known to suffer from poor drainage
