2 2 GUIDANCE FOR APPLICANTS We expect all development will be sustainable and where appropriate contribute to the creation of infrastructure and communities that are safe from flooding for their intended lifetime through the use of Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS). It is essential that the type of sustainable drainage system for a proposed site, along with details of its extent/position, function and future management arrangements are identified at the design stage of a proposed development. This information will be required by the Local Planning Authority in a clearly labelled Surface Water Drainage Strategy at the time that an application is made. The following document provides a general overview of what a surface water drainage strategy should consider, this is not an exhaustive list and it intended as guidance only at the preliminary design stage. WHAT IS A SURFACE WATER DRIANAGE STRATEGY A Surface Water Drainage Strategy should demonstrates planning, design, construction and maintenance considerations for surface water management systems. This applies to both greenfield and previously developed sites and is in addition to a Flood Risk Assessment (FRA) (where this applies), the two documents will include similar details and should inform one another. A Surface Water Drainage Strategy may form an appendix to the FRA however for validation purposes should be submitted separately and clearly identified. Failure to do so may result in an application not being made valid. A strategy should be appropriate to the scale, nature and location of the development that is proposed. Detailed guidance on of what this should include are set out in the Appendix. CENTRAL BEDFORDSHIRE COUNCIL S VALIDATION REQUIREMENTS In order to be made valid, any major application submitted after the 15 April 2015 must include an appropriately detailed Surface Water Drainage Strategy.
3 3 For Central Bedfordshire Council purposes, a large scale major application can be defined as any of the following: A residential development of 200 or more houses A residential development on a site of at least 4.0 hectares Creation or change of use of a commercial development, where the floor space exceeds 10,000 square metres, or where the site area is 2.0 hectares or more in size. Minor developments (up to a maximum of 10 dwellings or 1,000m² of non-residential property) should still provide sufficient detail on surface water management and the use of SuDS must be prioritised. This should be based on the scale and nature of development, see Appendix 3 for more information. COMPLIANCE WITH NATIONAL PLANNING POLICY FOR SUDS Government policy set out in paragraph 103 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) expects Local Planning Authorities to give priority to the use of SuDS in determining planning applications. Where SuDS are used, it must be established that these options are feasible, can be adopted and properly maintained and would not lead to any other environmental problems. This is a material planning consideration for all major applications as of the 6 April The use, design and layout of SuDS should satisfy strategic requirements as set out in the Central Bedfordshire Sustainable Drainage Guidance (adopted April 2014). The document emphasises that surface water should be managed as close to source (where it falls) and on the surface wherever possible, and that the principles of the SuDS management train be applied. Wherever possible the passage of water between individual parts of the train should be considered through the use of natural conveyance systems (e.g. swales and filter trenches) in place of conventional pipework. This document should be read in conjunction with the National Planning Policy Framework, Planning practice guidance, Non-statutory technical standards for the design, maintenance and operation of sustainable drainage, and CIRIA s SuDS manual (CIRIA C697) for the detailed specification of features (see CIRIA s website for more information on this),
4 4 OTHER GUIDANCE DOCUMENTS The Environment Agency s Rainfall runoff management for developments Report SC when completing a drainage strategy for submission. Planning for SuDS making it happen (CIRIA C687) to guide the planning of a site. The CIWEM publication Planning advice for integrated water management. SATISFYING THE HIERARCHY OF DISCHARGE DESTINATIONS FOR SURFACE WATER Details of how the proposed development is going to dispose of its surface water will be needed (in accordance with the Rainfall runoff management for developments report SC030219). This should demonstrate compliance with the hierarchy of discharge destinations in the Building Regulations (Part H) and a viable solution to discharging surface water should be presented. Surface run off should be disposed of as high up the hierarchy as is reasonably practicable: 1. Into the ground (infiltration) and re-use, or then 2. to a surface water body, or then 3. to a surface water sewer, highway drain, or another drainage system, or then 4. to a combined sewer. This should be applied even where infiltration can only account for a proportion of the runoff from the design event. For this purpose the suitability of the subsurface for the installation of infiltration sustainable drainage systems (SuDS) should be fully assessed along with any other potential site constraints or hazards. Site specific tests should be provided for detailed proposals to demonstrate permeability and the suitability of either infiltration, combined or attenuation systems (in accordance with Building Research Establishment Digest BRE 365). PROVIDING EXSITING SITE INFORMATION Applicants should find out how the site currently drains and if there are any site constraints or hazards which will affect the proposed development and management of surface water.
5 5 Evidence of this type of assessment should be given in the Surface Water Drainage Strategy. The Council s Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA) may be able to provide drainage information to assist with the preliminary assessment of a site, see our website for details. Water Authorities, Local Authority s drainage or highways team may also have some information. CONTROLLING DISCHARGE RATES Existing Discharge Rates and Volumes will need to be provided within a Surface Water Drainage Strategy as a comparison to the proposed. The allowable discharge from the positively drained impermeable areas of a site should be based on the greenfield run off rate for the developable area only. Otherwise the run-off from permeable areas that will continue to drain naturally will be double counted, which in turn will result in an overall increase in run-off and therefore an increase in flood risk. To mitigate for climate change the volume discharged from the site should be no higher than the 1 in 100 storm event for the pre-developed site. To meet greenfield discharge rates, water needs to be stored/attenuated so it can be released slowly over the same time period as before the site was developed. Even when hard standing area stays the same, more storage will be needed because of the effects of climate change. Remember, the Attenuation Volume (attenuates rates) is different from the Long Term Storage Volume (attenuates volumes) and both need to be calculated. Attenuation storage aims to limit the rate of runoff into the receiving system to that which takes place before the site is developed or redeveloped. A practicable minimum limit on a discharge rate from an attenuation device will often be a compromise between attenuating to a satisfactorily low flow rate while keeping the risk of blockage to an acceptable level. CONTROLLING DISCHARGE VOLUMES & LONG TERM STORAGE Discharge volumes on developed sites can be up to 10 times greater than when the site was undeveloped. To meet existing discharge volumes, the difference between existing and proposed volumes of water should not be discharged off site. This volume is referred to as the Long Term Storage Volume.
6 6 Controlling discharge volumes is important because: On developed sites, more of the volume is released more quickly and Even if the volume was released over the original, longer time period, downstream watercourses have limited storage. More water will mean more flooding. Even where rates are maintained, the peak rate lasts longer due to increased volumes leaving the site. Even when hard standing area stays the same, the volume of surface water will increase because of the effects of climate change. Options for dealing with the Long Term Storage Volume include: Providing infiltration to deal with the extra volume (where ground conditions allow), or Limiting the extra volume to 2l/s/ha (i.e. trickle discharge) and provide a storage area, or Limiting the extra volume to 2l/s/ha (i.e. trickle discharge) and provide a storage area. TAKING ACCOUNT OF CLIMATE CHANGE AND URBAN CREEP The NPPF provides advice on the impact of climate change. Paragraph 68, Part 4, of the Planning Practice Guidance indicates the following increases in peak rainfall intensity should be applied: Development still in existence by 2085 (residential) 30%. Developments with a life expectancy which ends prior to 2085 (commercial) 20%. Urban creep is now an acknowledged issue which results in an increase in runoff over time. An allowance should be made by factoring the impermeability percentage by 1.1 (10% increase) unless a more precautionary requirement is specified by the Local Planning Authority.
7 7 WATER QUALITY SuDS units should be used to achieve water quality improvements and amenity benefits as well as achieving compliance to these hydraulic criteria. Best practice in achieving water quality protection should be used and care taken to ensure SuDS will not pollute groundwater or mobilise contaminated material. This should be shown to link to the delivery of wider environmental and social objectives of the development site. DISPOSAL OF SURFACE WATER TO A PUBLIC SEWER Before disposal of surface water to the public sewer is considered all other options set out in Approved Document Part H of the Building Regulations 2010 should be exhausted. When no other practicable alternative exists to dispose of surface water other than the public sewer, the Water Company or its agents should confirm that there is adequate spare capacity in the existing system taking future development requirements into account. The Water Company will be the responsible body for reviewing and approving the surface water drainage plan in this instance. DISPOSAL OF SURFACE WATER TO AN INTERNAL DRAINAGE BOARD (IDB) SYSTEM The Bedford Group of Internal Drainage Boards will need to review and approve the surface water drainage plan and proposed discharge rates in this instance, their local drainage byelaws may apply. LAND DRAINAGE CONSENT FOR DISCHARGING TO A WATERCOURSE Where the design or construction works are likely to affect a watercourse Land Drainage consent may be needed (e.g. to carry out work in, over, or adjacent to a watercourse, or which will likely affect the current flow of water in an ordinary watercourse). For a main river this should be checked with the Environment Agency. For a non-main river (an ordinary watercourse ) please check with the Bedford Group of Internal Drainage Boards as to what may be needed. Where an existing sewer will be affected please contact the appropriate Water and Sewerage Undertaker.
8 8 Please note that an application to culvert a watercourse will not normally be acceptable unless proven that there is no reasonably practicable alternative, or if the detrimental effects of culverting would be so minor that they would not justify a more costly alternative. DESIGNING FOR SYSTEM EXCEEDENCE No flooding of property should occur as a result of a 1 in 100 year storm event (including an appropriate allowance for climate change) on the proposed development, For rainfall events with a return-period in excess of 30 years, surface flooding of open spaces such as landscaped areas or car parks is acceptable for short periods, the layout and landscaping of the site should aim to route water away from any vulnerable property, and avoid creating hazards to access and egress routes. Measures to convey and store exceedance flow should be demonstrated, making best use of the existing urban area through minor topographical changes, for example those made to the profile or a highway, footpath or kerb. Further guidance can be found in the CIRIA publication (Designing for exceedance in urban drainage - good practice (C635). CONSTRUCTABILITY AND MAINTAINABILITY In the early stages of the site design, consideration should be given to how the drainage system will be adopted and maintained in the future. This will likely influence the design just as much as the technical considerations. The final submitted design to manage surface water will need to take account of the construction, operation and maintenance requirements of both surface and subsurface components of the system. This should allow access by personnel, vehicle or machinery as required to undertake this work. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF A VESTED DRAINAGE AUTHORITY Where necessary we ask that details be provided from: The sewerage undertaker where a connection with a public sewer is proposed. The Environment Agency if the drainage system directly/indirectly involves the discharge of water into a main river.
9 9 The highway authority for an affected road or highway drainage. The Canal and River Trust if the drainage system directly/indirectly involves the discharge of water into or under a waterway managed by them. The Internal Drainage Board, if the drainage system directly or indirectly involves the discharge of water into an ordinary watercourse (within the meaning of section 72 of the Land Drainage Act 1991) or an Internal Drainage Board s main drain. LIKELY RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE LLFA FOR PROPOSED SURFACE WATER SYSTEMS No development should take place until details of the design, implementation, maintenance and management of a surface water drainage scheme based on sustainable drainage principles and an assessment of the hydrological and hydrogeological context of the development, have been submitted to and approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority. Clear details of the maintenance and/or adoption proposals of all element of the proposed drainage system must be provided prior to the commencement of the development/granting of planning permission. The surface water drainage scheme should subsequently be implemented in accordance with the approved as submitted to and agreed in writing by the Local Planning Authority before the development is completed. FURTHER INFORMATION AND GUIDANCE Applicants are strongly advised to discuss their proposals with the ouncil at the preapplication stage to ensure that an acceptable SuDS scheme is submitted. You should contact Central Bedfordshire Council directly for details of the pre-application process.
