In summary, the report states that i) The proposed separate drainage systems included within the mixed use development application will discharge to separate off-site drainage connections which are part of the wider Waverley development project. ii) Foul water will discharge to off-site stubs connected to the wider foul water drainage network iii) Surface water from the section will discharge from two separate points of discharge via flow control chambers at a restricted rate of 151 litres per second and 101 litres per second. iv) Appropriate by-pass separators installed on the surface water drainage network to collect run-off from the carpark areas. 2. Development of the site should take place with separate systems for foul and surface water drainage. The separate systems should extend to the points of discharge to be agreed. Foul water from kitchens and/or food preparation areas of any restaurants and/or canteens etc. must pass through a fat and grease trap of adequate design before any discharge to the public sewer network. Under the provisions of section 111 of the Water Industry Act 1991 it is unlawful to pass into any public sewer (or into any drain or private sewer communicating with the public sewer network) any items likely to cause damage to the public sewer network interfere with the free flow of its contents or affect the treatment and disposal of its contents. Amongst other things this includes fat, oil, nappies, bandages, syringes, medicines, sanitary towels and incontinence pants. Contravention of the provisions of section 111 is a criminal offence. If the developer is looking to have new sewers included in a sewer adoption agreement with Yorkshire Water (under Section 104 of the Water Industry Act 1991), he/she should contact our Developer Services Team (telephone 03451 208 482, email: technical.sewerage@yorkshirewater.co.uk) at the earliest opportunity. Sewers intended for adoption should be designed and constructed in accordance with the WRc publication 'Code for Adoption - a design and construction guide for developers’ as supplemented by Yorkshire Water's requirements. 03 Drainage 1. Records indicate site to be in Environment Agency Flood Warning Area. 2. Flood resilience should be duly considered in the design of the new building/s or renovation. Guidance may be found in BRE Digest 532 Parts 1 and 2, 2012 and BRE Good Building Guide 84. 3. The applicant should provide a Flood Evacuation Plan which outlines: • The flood warning procedure. • A safe point of extraction. • How users can safely evacuate the site upon receipt of a flood warning. • The areas of responsibility for those participating in the plan. • The procedures for implementing the Plan. • How users will be made aware of the flood risk. • How users will be made aware of flood resilience. • Who will update the flood evacuation plan? 4. Surface Water Discharge From Brownfield Site: There should be no increase in surface water discharge from the site to existing sewers / watercourses. On site surface water attenuation will therefore be required if drained areas to existing sewers / watercourses are to be increased. A 30% net reduction to existing peak discharge (up to a 1/100 yr storm + 40% CC) will be required if the site is being re-developed. A full justification will be required where the development cannot achieve the 30% betterment on the existing run-off rate. 5. On Site Surface Water Management: The site is required to accommodate rainfall volumes up to 1 in 100 year return period (plus climate change) whilst ensuring no flooding to buildings or adjacent land. The applicant will need to provide details and calculations including any below ground storage, overflow paths (flood routes), surface detention and infiltration areas etc. to demonstrate how the 100 year + 40% CC rainfall volumes will be controlled and accommodated. Where cellular storage is proposed and is within areas where it may be susceptible to damage by excavation by other utility contractors, warning signage should be provided to inform of its presence. Cellular storage and infiltration systems should not be positioned within highway. Guidance on flood pathways can be found in BS EN 752. 6. If infiltration systems are to be used for surface water disposal, the following information must be provided: • Ground percolation tests to BRE 365. • Ground water levels records. Minimum 1m clearance from maximum seasonal groundwater level to base of infiltration compound. This should include assessment of relevant groundwater borehole records, maps and on-site monitoring in wells. • Soil / rock descriptions in accordance with BS EN ISO 14688-1:2002 or BS EN ISO 14689-1:2003 • Volume design calculations to 1-in 100-year rainfall + 40% climate change standard. An appropriate factor of safety should be applied to the design in accordance with CIRIA C753 – Table 25.2. • Location plans indicating position (Soakaways serving more than one property must be located in an accessible position for maintenance). Soakaways should not be used within 5m of buildings or the highway or any other structure. • Drawing details including sizes and material. • Details of a sedimentation chamber (silt trap) upstream of the inlet should be included. Soakaway detailed design guidance is given in CIRIA Report 753, CIRIA Report 156 and BRE Digest 365. 7. Car wash run-off should discharge to sewer only not to watercourse or soakaway. The applicant should demonstrate sufficient drainage on site to intercept the car wash run-off and prevent flows running on to neighbouring properties and the public highway. There should also be sufficient drainage arrangements in place to remove silt and oil from the car wash run-off (silt trap/s and oil interceptor). The applicant should contact the sewerage authority for a licence to discharge industrial waste to the public sewerage system. 8. A Flood Risk Assessment (FRA) should be provided for the proposed development site, in accordance with the NPPF. Where the site is at risk of flooding (Fluvial and Pluvial), details of place of refuge/evacuation should be considered and sign up to the Environment Agency Flood Warning Service. 9. All Micro Drainage calculations and results must be submitted in .MDX format, to the LPA. (Other methods of drainage calculations are acceptable) 10. If the development is proposing to make a new highway drainage connection to an existing highway drainage system, detailed CCTV surveys and modelling of the existing highway drainage system will be required to determine the capability to accept additional flow. Discharge will be limited to greenfield run-off rates. 11. Any SuDS/Drainage system installed must not be at the detriment to the receiving watercourse or ground (infiltration), so manging the quality of the run-off to must be incorporated into any design in accordance with CIRIA 753 The SuDS Manual The design of flow control devices should, wherever practicable, include the following features: a) Flow controls may be static (such as vortex flow controls or fixed orifice plates) or variable (such as pistons or slide valves); b) Controls should have a minimum opening size of 100 mm chamber, or equivalent; c) A bypass should be included with a surface operated penstock or valve; and d) Access should be provided to the upstream and downstream sections of a flow control device to allow maintenance. 12. For major developments, the LPA is required to ensure there are suitable ongoing maintenance arrangements over the lifetime of the development (see NPPF paragraph 169, page 48). Options for SuDS adoption and maintenance include: a) Adoption by Water and Sewerage Company (WSC) - The developer may enter into a section 104 agreement (Water Industry Act 1991) with the local WSC. b) Private Maintenance Arrangement. Provide all drainage management and maintenance plans for the lifetime of the development, which shall include the arrangements for adoption by any public authority or statutory undertaker and any other arrangements to secure the operation of the scheme throughout its lifetime (e.g. signed Section 104 agreement). 13. Whereby a private maintenance arrangement is proposed and the development is unlikely to remain under single ownership or within a single curtilage over its lifetime a condition will require a satisfactory legal agreement to be drawn up to provide for inspection and maintenance of the proposed surface water drainage scheme. This legal agreement is required BEFORE the first occupation of any dwelling or building on the site. Over the lifetime of the development an agreement must include the following: a) A detailed operational maintenance plan; b) Physical access arrangements for maintenance, and establishment of legal rights of access in perpetuity, prior to the commencement of any phase of the development; c) A financial revenue plan clearly setting out how funding for maintenance is to be raised over the lifetime of the development; d) A whole life cost analysis for capital maintenance over the lifetime of the development. Any values should be based on the current HM Treasury Present Value (PV) Discount Rate. Assumptions about the expected useful life of materials should be included in any such analysis; and e) Details of financial surety to ensure long-term maintenance and capital maintenance costs of apparatus. It is for the developer to demonstrate that a suitable financial underwriting arrangement is in place 14 This development is not subject to the statutory Biodiversity Gain Plan condition because of the declaration on the application form that the original permission was granted before 20 February 2020 and was exempt. POSITIVE AND PROACTIVE STATEMENT Whilst the applicant did not enter into any pre application discussions with the Local Planning Authority, the proposals were in accordance with the principles of the National Planning Policy Framework and did not require any alterations or modification.
