Extension of Flooding Protection Scheme to Businesses
Subject to a suitable business case being agreed, the grant scheme will open later this year for owners of small businesses
The Department of Agriculture and Rural Development has announced plans to extend the Homeowner Flood Protection Grant Scheme to small businesses, including farms.
This will allow small business owners and farmers who may not be able to benefit from a larger scale flood alleviation scheme, to protect their property from flooding.
Subject to a suitable business case being agreed, the grant scheme will open later this year and will allow owners of small businesses at risk of flooding to install physical barriers and equipment to help reduce the impact on their properties.
