Water Resource Engineer questions misuse of flood data
Gilbert & Sutherland Director and Principal Water Resource Engineer Owen Droop has commented on the debate concerning the management of the Wivenhoe system during the flood crises. As a practicing Water Resource Engineer with direct experience in the hydrology and operation of the Water Grid and the Somerset/Wivenhoe Dams, Droop said it was important to provide a measured response to the commentary that the devastating floods downstream of the Wivenhoe Dam were somehow exacerbated (or even caused) by the inappropriate operation of the flood management system.
