The discharge rate from this parcel will be limited to the 19.5l/s as per the agreed strategic site wide drainage strategy. The final detailed design shall be based on the agreed Below Ground Drainage Layout (Ref: 3000, Dated 23/10/2019) and DEFRAs Non-statutory technical standards for sustainable drainage systems (March 2018) and shall be implemented and maintained as approved. Any variation to the connections and controls indicated on the approved drawing which may be necessary at the time of construction would require the resubmission of those details to the Local Planning Authority for approval.
