The policy states that all developments should ensure there is adequate water supply to serve the development. As per guidance set out in the Water Services Infrastructure Guide, ‘water companies have a duty to satisfy the WSI needs of development through the provision of services and monitoring compliance with water supply regulations’. Therefore it is not the developers responsibility to provide adequate water capacity.
‘Where practicable’ should be added to the third bullet point to provide some flexibility where connections into existing infrastructure is required. “Avoid surface water connections into existing surface water and combined sewer networks, where practicable, and manage runoff through suitably designed SuDs schemes”.
