[QUOTE="beef 1, post: 5881574, member: 28326"] It has been proposed on our land for the last 20 yrs, but they don't have the money to put it in place ! (That isn't to compensate ) After the last bad floods in 2015 we had a quote from a local utilities firm for a clean up, as part of the flood recovery fund .Quote was£26000 + vat. I attended a nfu meeting about the clean ups and recovery fund allocation , attended by ea reps, when asked about help and/or financial assistance . They stressed they had no money , or labour/time to assist with any cleaning up, and the recovery funding was for proven damage replacements , not incidental debris collection /disposal .I gave it to nfu to see if they could make anything of it ,and never heard a thing since . The EA wont pay for nothing , not even a cup of tea!!! [/QUOTE]
