pleased to confirm that the information satisfies the relevant clauses
Highways Drainage is satisfied with the drainage plan as it directs surface water away from the highway to a soakaway, noting it requires Building Control approval and copying Manx Utilities for comment on potential foul sewer discharge; Manx Utilities requested percolation test results to confirm adequate SW discharge.
Key concern: percolation test results required by Manx Utilities to confirm adequate SW discharge
Highways Drainage
No ObjectionThe drainage plan indicates that the proposed driveway will fall away from the existing public highway so we are satisfied that there will be no increase in surface water (SW) runoff on to it from the property.; This will require Building Control approval and ideally they would have witnessed the infiltration tests to confirm that a soakaway is viable.; If for any reason the soakaway fails then surface water is unlikely to drain onto the highway. In these situations however it’s been known for some property owners to drain the SW runoff into the foul sewer to alleviate flooding. This can pose problems for Manx Utilities (MU)
Manx Utilities
we would require a copy of the percolation test so that we can be satisfied that the SW will be able to be discharged adequately.
Conditions requested: provide copy of the percolation test
