Representation ID: 20070

Received: 12/03/2018

Respondent: Thames Water

Representation Summary:

Suggest following supporting text to accompany proposed new policy:
"The Local Planning Authority will seek to ensure that there is adequate water and wastewater infrastructure to serve all new developments. Developers are encouraged to contact Thames Water as early as possible to discuss their development proposals and intended delivery programme to assist with identifying any potential water and wastewater network reinforcement requirements. Where there is a capacity constraint the Local Planning Authority will, where appropriate, apply phasing conditions to any approval to ensure that any necessary infrastructure upgrades are delivered ahead of the occupation of the relevant phase of development."

Representation ID: 20071

Received: 12/03/2018

Respondent: Thames Water

Representation Summary:

Thames Water will work with developers and local authorities to ensure that any necessary infrastructure reinforcement is delivered ahead of the occupation of development. Where there are infrastructure constraints, it is important not to underestimate the time required to deliver necessary infrastructure. For example: to understand, design and deliver local network upgrades can take around 18 months and Sewage Treatment & Water Treatment Works upgrades can take 3-5 years. Implementing new technologies and the construction of a major treatment works extension or new treatment works could take up to 10 years.

Plan-Making

Representation ID: 20072

Received: 12/03/2018

Respondent: Thames Water

Representation Summary:

Thames Water would support the inclusion of policies on SuDS within the Local Plan. Such a policy should cover both the provision of SuDS through new development proposals but should also support the retrofitting of SuDS. The retrofitting of SuDS can assist with ensuring there is capacity within the sewerage network to address the impacts of growth and climate change.

Representation ID: 20073

Received: 12/03/2018

Respondent: Thames Water

Representation Summary:

Thames Water consider that the Local Plan should include a policy ensuring that the amenity of occupiers of new developments are not adversely affected by existing sources of odour without adequate mitigation measures being put in place.
Where development is being proposed within 800m of a sewage treatment works, or within 15m of a sewage pumping stationthe developer or local authority should liaise with Thames Water to consider whether odour and / or noise and / or vibration impact assessment is required as part of the promotion of the site and potential planning application submission.

002 Brentwood Railway Station Car Park

Representation ID: 20074

Received: 12/03/2018

Respondent: Thames Water

Representation Summary:

Infrastructure at the wastewater treatment works in this area is unlikely to be able to support the demand anticipated from this development. Significant infrastructure upgrades are likely to be required to ensure sufficient treatment capacity is available to serve this development. Thames Water would welcome the opportunity to work closely with the Local Planning Authority and the developer to better understand and effectively plan for the sewage treatment infrastructure needs required to serve this development. It is important not to under estimate the time required to deliver necessary infrastructure.
