The Environment Agency is actively encouraging the use of SUDS techniques to reduce site run-off. We advise on appropriate methods and technologies and design or audit the selected requirements.
Soakaways
- Assessment of percolation tests
- Design of individual or combined systems
Discharge to Watercourses
- Liaison with the Environment Agency
- Discharge Consent Applications
- Design of attenuation tanks/balancing ponds or tank sewers
- using Microdrainage
- Outfall design
Discharge to Existing Sewerage Systems
- Liaison with the sewerage operator
- Design of the attenuation tanks / balancing ponds or tank
- sewers using Microdrainiage
- Connection design
We can also design other aspects of SUDS such as porous surfacing, rainwater recycling, swales, wetlands and reed beds.
The adoption of the proposed solutions is a matter for consideration at the design stage. We can liaise with the Local Authorities and the sewerage operator to agree the best solution.
