Clyde and Loch Lomond 26 Argyll and Bute Helensburgh 2605 Surface water management plan Areas at risk of heavy or prolonged rainfall causing flooding due to water ponding on man-made surfaces or overwhelming the drainage system are to be identified. These priority areas will provide a baseline for the identification of next steps in managing water ponding or over-whelmed drainage systems. This should guide adaptive planning to allow for the impacts of climate change to be monitored, understood and managed. Develop and implement a surface water management plan to reduce the risk of flooding from surface water and small watercourses in Helensburgh. The impacts of climate change on flood risk should be assessed. The results of the sewer flood risk assessment should be considered.

The Lochgilphead Flood Study (2019) identified property flood resilience as the preferred option for managing the risk of flooding. (There were no economically viable options for river flooding). Argyll and Bute Council presented implementation of a property flood protection scheme on a grant basis with homeowner maintenance. Argyll and Bute Council to progress this in combination with community engagement and promotion of self help.

In areas where flood risk is confirmed, a range of possible options to manage flood risk are to be identified, including natural flood management actions where suitable, and a preferred approach is to be chosen. This should include adaptive planning to allow for the impacts of climate change to be monitored, understood and managed. A flood study should be carried out to further investigate the feasibility of potential options to manage river flood risk in Lochgilphead. 2028 - 2034 Argyll and Bute Council will work with Lochgilphead Community Council and individual property owners to deliver the scheme.

These can include small scale works or works to improve catchment management. This should guide adaptive planning to allow for the impacts of climate change to be monitored, understood and managed. Develop the detailed design of the Oban Flood Protection Scheme based on the preferred option from the flood study. The preferred option consists of a combined flood storage and direct defence solution to protect against flooding from the Black Lynn and property flood resilience to protect against coastal flooding. Some more work is required on the surface water element. The responsible authority proposes this action as the best viable option for managing flood risk in this community. The delivery of this action is subject to capital funding being made available.
