Sustainable Drainage Systems (SUDS)
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.

Discharge to Watercourses

Discharge to Existing Sewerage Systems

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 Authority and the sewerage operator to agree the best solution.
