What the notice says

The Environment Agency (EA) require a tool to assess the additional flood risk caused when a flood risk management asset falls below required condition (BRC). Understanding the increased risk helps operational teams to prioritise work to maintain, repair or replace the assets. Managing BRC assets is a central part of the EA’s asset management and there are associated Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) relating to this.
