Price: £200


Ref: 06/WW/03/8
ISBN: 1 84057 417 8

This report is the second of 2 reports which investigate the liability risks associated with ownership of Sustainable Drainage Systems (SUDS). The first report carried out a broad evaluation of the issues, and the second study then investigated those which were perceived as being the most important. Key topics were assessed as being:
•the risk of sediment in ponds and basins being classified as Hazardous and the disposal costs associated with their maintenance upkeep;
•the risk of groundwater pollution from infiltration systems;
•the risks associated with Health & Safety and also public nuisance;
•the development of a SUDS protocol; and
•the current state of existing software in being able to adequately represent SUDS.
