Grasmere SC12 SC13 SC14 SC15 Gravel on the Crake Investigate use of Kentmere Reservoir for floods storage Grange Over, Road Initial for Beetham Gravel assessments above Coniston. Investigate the use of Kentmere Reservoir for floods storage There are problems from overland flows near Booths on Road and incapacity of culverted sections. There are opportunities for Natural around Eggerslack Beck. Initial assessment of Beetham flood defences following the December 2015 floods. Grange-Over- Beetham & Milnthorpe SC16 Poaka Beck, Dalton-in- 142 properties are at risk of flooding due to the channel overtopping at Hagg Ghyll and Poaka Beck with inadequate surface water drainage. Options to store water upstream being explored Dalton-in- SC17 Culvert Appraisal in lower Kent Culvert appraisal in the lower Kent Catchment: Stocks Beck. SC18 Birds Park Reservoir Birds Park reservoir is a redundant asset (owned by United Utilities). There are current investigations into options for wider catchment solutions. Modelling has identified possible benefits for flood storage. SC19 SC20 Gravel on the Kent storage modelling in Kentmere An assessment of gravel on the River Kent Identification of possible locations for flood storage in Kentmere. Currently under investigation via further modelling. SC21 Risk Consider the following options. Provision of additional flood storage capacity in the upstream reaches of the Stock Beck catchment, including an increase to the capacity of the existing flood storage reservoir on the south and east tributaries and the creation of formal upstream storage on the north tributary. Creation of formal flood storage areas upstream of to attenuate flood flows from the Rivers Kent and Mint. Provision of raised defences along the entire reach of the Rivers Kent and Mint, from Mint Road in the north to Wastewater Treatment Works in the south. Compensatory flood plain storage would be required as part of this option

An outflow and overspill will allow for the retention time of the RAF to be monitored and controlled. attenuation features to be created on Mickle Moss to hold back water during flood peaks. Feasibility study into removal of Barley weir, requested to transfer this to Bowston Weir Creation of a series of earth bunds to temporarily store flood waters. Leaky woody structures will also be installed In the river to re-connect the river to its floodplain. SC64 Low Yewdale Installation of leaky woody structures across a side channel through the riparian field to re-connect the beck with its floodplain. SC65 Nether End Temporary Water Storage Removal of revetment from left-hand side of the river where flood water already flows out into woodland through a formal break in the wall line. This will allow the river to re-connect with its floodplain and increase storage during flood peaks. SC66 Penny House Wood In- Creation of a raised stock bridge or small bund to trap water entering the gully from a side channel, upstream of a track. Leaky woody structures could be installed to increase connection with the floodplain. SC67 Tarn Hows Wood Beck Creation of leaky woody structures across the small beck which flows through the woodland into the river. SC68 SC69 SC70 Tarn Hows Wood (2) Tom Gill Inflow In- Yew Tree Farm River Felling existing alder trees across wet woodland to retain water during flood peaks. Creation of leaky woody structures in a steep sided channel to slow the flow through the gully upstream of Yewtree Farm. Removal of revetments from Yewdale beck and Yewtree beck to allow the rivers to find their natural course. Also includes the creation of a small pond/ wetland area. SC71 Yewdale Beck Installation of leaky woody structures (from felled trees on site) on a straight section of the beck to hold water back and re-connect the beck with its floodplain. SC72 SC73 SC74 Catchmentwide Gully Tree planting Scandale Beck Leaky Woody Revetment Removal at Colwith Planting trees along the riparian zones of a series of small tributaries which flow into Church Beck.

SC81 Embankment Removal and Wetland Creation Removal of the embankment on the right hand bank and installation of leaky woody structures to re-connect the beck with its floodplain. The floodplain will also be planted up as wet-woodland, and some surface scrapes added to increase surface roughness and 'slow the flow'. SC82 SC83 at Poole Bank Black Crag Installation of leaky woody structures at Poole Bank Farm to hold water back during high flows. There are a number of sites where run off attenuation features can be installed. Each of the small structures will collectively act as a means of holding water back in the uplands above. SC84 Embankment Removal at Ings Lane This project aims to remove a section of embankment from the right bank of, as well as the whole of the left hand bank of the tributary which joins the beck here. Installation of leaky woody structures in the main beck will help to slow the flow and re-connect the beck with its floodplain. The are will also be planted with native woodland, with open areas and surface scrapes to help hold the water. SC86 Monitoring of Flow Gauges monitoring of flow levels via rain gauges SC87 Road Park Culvert Removal Removal of a culvert and reconnection with the floodplain through a section of park off Road.

5 SC92 Rating Lane Modelling team is UU contribution to a MsFW multiagency external flooding issue in Rating Lane Barrow affecting two properties. Aiming for hydraulic investigation to demonstrate the root cause of flooding but actually likely to be high ground water issue. There have been joint investigations between UU and the Lead Local Authority. This has revealed an underground piped watercourse in the garden. Shamus Giles from Cumbria CC is going to investigate. SC93 Burneside Alleviation To resolve external flooding from manhole outside the bus stop at the end of Steeles Row in Burneside with a 1 in 30 year design horizon and prevent Category 3 pollution incidents into the River Kent. Burneside SC94 Greenodd Alleviation The project objectives are to address the floodign at Rose Cottage and Meadow View and provide protection up to a 1 in 30 year storm event and to reduce th flows in the network by removing two known points of infiltration on the Sheriffs Bank leg and Mount pleasant leg. The solution is to construct a new storm relief pumping station 120m3 storage and relief sewer and associated works (completed) and the removal of 2 known points of infiltration hotspots (ongoing). Greenodd SC95 SC96 Stockbridge Fam Blackbutts Lane, Barrow A Modelling study has been carried out to determine the flooding mechanism responsible. The cause has been shown to be hydraulic incapacity of the existing 225mm siphon under the River Kent. High Level Options have been identified, but these would have to be prioritised against the Company prioritisation criteria of Cost / Benefit. Currently, this is not being progressed. Modelling undertaken. Cause is hydraulic incapacity of existing 300mm combined sewer. High level solutions have been identified, but a watching brief as not 100% certain that all the flooding is caused by sewer incapacity.
