Major EU flood exercise

A major exercise to test the preparedness of the Netherlands to cope with a storm surge has been taking place this month.

The FLOODEX website has a range of resources, and further information about the exercise, and the threat that coastal flooding, associated with storm surges poses to the low-lying areas of the North Sea coastline.

Thanks to Stephen Schwab for the tip-off.

The BBC had a news feature on the exercise which can be viewed using the link HERE.

A good counterpoint to the Atlantic Rising website I blogged about earlier.
