Drainage Division Consultation Response

The plans for the proposed development have been inspected and the Drainage Division of the Department of Transport requests that the following comment(s) be passed to your Planning Committee: -

NO OBJECTION In principle subject to: -

There must be NO discharge of surface water (directly or indirectly) from this proposed development to any foul drainage system(s) so as to comply with the requirements of the Department of Transport Drainage Division and the Sewerage Act 1999.

The application states that the surface water from the proposed development is to be discharged to the “existing drainage”. If this “existing drainage” discharges (directly or indirectly) to the foul sewerage system then it should be noted that an alternative means of surface water disposal must be provided.

Note: The applicant is requested to supply the Division a copy of any Building Control Application in relation to the surface water discharge from this development.

In the event that this application is approved I should be grateful if these comments could be incorporated in the approval notice. Yours faithfully,

Ian Wade Assistant Engineer Development Control
