Welsh Government consults on implementation of SuDS

The Welsh Government is consulting on the proposed implementation of schedule 3 of the Flood and Water Management Act 2010. This follows on from their consultation and publication of their non-statutory SuDS standards last year. Take a look at the consultation document, the Impact Assessment and the draft SuDS approval process available here. We also have a new blog on the Welsh consultation, read and leave a comment here to get involved in the conversation.

New case studies

We’ve added four new case studies to the susdrain website this month all on retrofit projects. These include;

• a detention basin retrofit at Gibside View
• Glenbrook Wetlands construction
• wetlands creation and stream restoration at Grovelands Park
• Houndsden Road Rain Gardens
