Detailed guidance on developing a multi-agency flood plan

This guidance replaces the 'Preliminary Guidance on Developing a Multi-Agency Flood Plan' which was published in February 2008 as a stand-alone document. It draws on good practice from a range of existing plans and guidance and feedback from stakeholders in spring 2010 and at the Multi-Agency Flood Plan (MAFP) workshop held in January 2010.

The guidance sets out the reasons for having MAFPs and the context for developing a plan. It should be used by Local Resilience Forums (LRFs) to undertake flood response planning, including recovery planning where it relates to flooding. It provides a framework for constructing a plan as well as some examples and reference materials to draw on as appropriate.
