Dear Sir

**ISLE OF MAN PLANNING SCHEME (DEVELOPMENT PLAN) ORDER 1982**
09/01315/B - "Change of use from restaurant/café to a mixed use
comprising restaurant café and takeaway, 1, 3 & 5 Walpole Avenue,
Douglas, Isle of Man

Douglas Borough Council acts as the Drainage agent for the Department of Transport, under
the Sewerage Act 1999.

No Objection in Principle subject to:-

**Grease Trap**
No discharges of fat or other food waste which will affect the performance of the
public foul sewerage system will be permitted to enter the foul sewer. It will be the
responsibility of the developer/occupier of the premises to provide satisfactory means
of removal and disposal for such waste.

It should be noted that it is an offence under Manx legislation to permit the discharge
of polluting or harmful matter to any public sewers or watercourses. Appropriate
measures must be taken by the developer/occupier of the premises to ensure
compliance with the legislation.

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

Yours faithfully
