Waiting for Brent - to action the feasibility study needed to progress the Flood alleviation program in partnership with the Harrow Engineer (longstanding officer of considerable experience). He has completed the background work for his department. Without Brent's cooperation the project cannot go ahead. We wait.....and the flood alerts continue. This is not a water quality issue as implied by Brent.
