Draft Local Plan
Representation ID: 15525
Received: 10/05/2016
Respondent: Environment Agency
Representation Summary:
We support this policy, which requires all proposals to maximise energy efficiency, incorporate water conservation measures, and include details of measures to improve resilience to climate change. We are pleased that paragraph 10.27 of the supporting text references the Brentwood Scoping and Outline Water Cycle Study 2011 and recognises that the Borough lies within an area of Serious Water Stress. It also recognises the generally poor water quality of the Borough's watercourses and that, in some areas, sewage infrastructure is already operating at capacity.
