How to read, interpret and understand a stormwater and hydrology report
The management of water quality and quantity is becoming an increasingly important issue in development assessment.
Best practice water management is more than an engineering exercise; it involves designing, integrating, implementing and managing water solutions to meet safety, health, environmental and aesthetic requirements.
Emma will address what planners should know about stormwater management and hydrology, including
- the relevant terminology
- the methodology used in hydrology/flooding assessment
- the structure of a hydrology/flooding report
- who is qualified to do the work
- how to brief a consultant
- the types of requirements that councils and SARA are regularly imposing on proponents
- what flooding engineers wished planners knew
