1.      The Environment Agency recommends that in areas at risk of flooding consideration be given to the incorporation into the design and construction of the development of flood proofing measures.  These include barriers on ground floor doors, windows and access points and bringing in electrical services into the building at a high level so that plugs are located above possible flood levels.  Additional guidance can be found in the Environment Agency Floodline Publication 'Damage Limitation'.  A free copy of this is available by telephoning 0845 988 1188.  Reference should also be made to the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister publication 'Preparing for Floods'.
