Flood Risk and SuDS Strategies
In particular, local planning authorities are looking for calculations demonstrating that surface water run-off can be controlled as near to its source as possible with sustainable drainage systems (SuDS).
The SUDS approach to drainage incorporates a wide variety of techniques. As a result, there is no one correct drainage solution for a site. In most cases, a combination of techniques will be required. Thes may include controlling rainwater at source (green roofs, rainwater harvesting, permeable paving etc.), infiltration trenches, filter basins, swales, basins, ponds and wetlands.
