Erratum – INC V7 Hea10 Natural hazards – CN3 - KBCN1833

CN3 incorrectly states- ‘Where flooding is the only risk identified, this issue will  not be included in the assessment as flooding is addressed in Pol03 Flood and surface water management on page 381’ It should say - ‘Where flooding is the only risk identified, Criterion 2 is not applicable as flood mitigation is addressed in Pol03 Flood and surface water management on page 381’. Criterion 1 must still be achieved where ‘Natural hazards’ has a >0% BREEAM weighting for the country/region. This can be viewed in the ‘Scoring and output’ section of the assessment. If a risk assessment has been carried out and it identifies that flooding is the only risk – choose ‘Yes’ to all questions under this issue to award the credit.   The technical manual and the platform will be updated accordingly in the next re-issue.
