Water Security | 14.3 | Please select the actions you are taking to reduce the risks to your city’s water security. | 4 | Action description and implementation progress | 3 | (172) Identify sources of funding and assistance for retrofitting roofs on residential and commercial buildings with green or blue roofs - Progress against this action - This is an ongoing process(177) Provide Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) using identified funding from Thames WaterProgress against this action - The Council submitted a bid to Thames Water last year to secure funding as one of their strategic partners. This funding is to be used for SuDS installation to reduce the pressure on Thames Water’s sewer network. Thames Water’s business plan was not accepted by Ofwat which has resulted in a delay in Thames Water announcing who has been successful. Feedback taken forward and being taken into account in bid for funding of flood resilience projects including to Defra Innovative Resilience Fund. Under the new Planning Obligations SPD, provision of flood risk management measures such as Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) are expected to be provided on-site and secured through conditions or a s106 agreement. | |||

Water Security | 14.3 | Please select the actions you are taking to reduce the risks to your city’s water security. | 4 | Action description and implementation progress | 4 | 171) Identify opportunities for reducing runoff and improving storage capacity and highlight to businesses and residentsProgress against this action - This is an ongoing process. The Beverley Brook Flood Resilience Project includes opportunity mapping - identifying and mapping schools, community centers, youth centers, community buildings and sports facilities in the catchment. Mapping these buildings and facilities will help inform the project of potential for SuDS and NBS at these locations. Focusing on these types of properties will also provide valuable opportunities for community engagement and learning. Together with the baseline risk modelling this will help in identifying opportunities for residents to take action at property level to increase resilience to flood risk.This project will seek to galvanise support amongst the local communities affected for the infrastructure changes that provide mitigation against and adaptation to flooding and encourage complementary action by residents. | |||

Progress: A circular economy action plan for West London has been developed and is underway, which will focus on awareness raising of the circular economy amongst residents and businesses (culminating in London Circular Economy Week in June), identifying the extent of and opportunities for the circular economy, and developing shared circular economy principles and approaches for local authorities. Phase 1 of the action plan is due to be delivered by the end of September 2021.The 2021 Climate Emergency Strategy Action Plan contains seven specific actions, all for delivery in the first half of 2021/22, that are focused on reducing single plastic use across the borough. This includes a vision on how the borough can be single-use plastic free and working with local groups and champions to support single-use plastic free campaigns. | |||

Climate Hazards and Vulnerability | 2.0a | Please select the primary process or methodology used to undertake the risk and vulnerability assessment of your city. | 2 | Description | 1 | Risk assessment methodology | The RCES was based on international, national and regional information about the risks of climate change and included references to the local geography and climate in assessing risks. The strategy sits alongside other existing plans. The Thames Estuary Plan recommends actions for flood risk management for London and the Thames estuary through to the end of the century and beyond. Updated TE2100 policies will be incorporated into the new Richmond Local Plan. A new Surface Water Management Plan will identify areas with higher numbers of properties at risk of flooding. It will present borough-wide surface water flood risk mitigation options. We are working on producing our own Climate Vulnerability Risk Assessments: our Strategy does not yet include a full Climate Risk assessment using a methodology as outlined. The Council has already mapped vulnerable populations through work on the Green Homes Grant, which identified homes that were poorly adapted to climate impacts by virtue of low EPC ratings, overlayed with low income, deprivation and other factors that mean a community is more at risk of climate impacts, for example due to digital exclusion or having English as a first language. The Council also draws from data including the Climate Risk Mapping carried out by the GLA and Bloomberg Associates, analysing Flood Risk, Heat Risk and Overall Climate risk on London’s hexagonal grid. https://data.london.gov.uk/dataset/climate-risk-mappingThe Council operates Datarich.info which provide us with data on where our vulnerable populations are located in the borough, mapping vulnerabilities such as heat and indices of multiple deprivation, highlighting these risks to inform our approaches.As part of our ongoing examination of useful datastreams, we are using the place-based carbon calculator, a detailed mapping tool produced by the Centre for Research into Energy Demand Solutions (CREDS). The Council’s work is also informed by the recent 2021 progress report to parliament from the Committee on Climate Change, which offers scientifically-backed insight into national progress on climate change actions, as well as detailing the different types of hazards we face and will face in the coming years, including drawing evidence-based conclusions on how they might intensify and making suggestions for priorities going forwards. | ||
