Sites of 20 units within the Thames Water area would require further developer funded investigations to ensure network capacity exists. Where upgrades are required the Council should attach Grampian planning conditions to planning approvals to ensure upgrades are completed ahead of development occupation (see attached for suggested wording).

Support requirement for applicants to contact sewerage providers to assess the foul sewer network capacity. However, the policy as worded would not be effective in ensuring development does not increase the risk of sewer flooding because the requirement only applies within functional flood plains.

It is suggested that item d of the policy is revised, see attached for details. Additional supporting text should also be provided in support of the policy, see attached for details.

Thames Water have concerns regarding the wording of Policy DM36 which does not require developers to follow the sequential approach for the disposal of surface water. The policy should set out a clear hierarchy for the management of surface water to be followed by developers if it is to be effective rather than setting out a preferred hierarchy.

Thames Water Utilities Ltd is now being delivered by Savills UK Limited, on behalf of Thames Water. We serve a number of sites in the preferred options. We would welcomed the opportunity to work with Brentwood BC and developers to ensure infrastructure is being delivered on time. In some instances developer funded capacity studies will be required.
