The policy is not strong enough.
Major developments (define a threshold, say 100 units) WILL include grey water recycling system.
The minimum rainwater harvesting provision for residential buildings is insufficient. It must be 400l.

Is there scope to go further? Depending on dwelling size could the rain water harvesting capacity be increased and used as a primary source of water for toilets?

In our experience and analysis it is difficult to reduce water use to the levels described without compromising functionality, unless Rainwater Harvesting (RWH) for internal use is incorporated. RWH is rarely used on housing due to the cost, ongoing management issues and additional embodied carbon. Research also suggests that RWH increases CO² emissions at a time when we are seeking to reduce emissions. A target of 110 litres per person is considered more achievable and in line with the Government’s own guidance (New water saving measures to safeguard supplies - GOV.UK)

Godwin Developments have no concerns regarding the approach laid out in Draft Policy – H – Water Efficiency. However, it is contended that the proposed water efficiency standard should be reflective of the requirements as set out in building regulations i.e. 125litres per person per day. This would provide a consistent approach between planning and building regulations.

Regarding E1 - Long Marston.

7.8 indicates area is under stress, which matches our experience. Properties here are forced to have water pumps to pump out excess water, regularly in winter months and even the sudden downpours in summer.
This increases energy use/carbon footprints. Damage to plants and habitat.
Older residents here can confirm this has worsened in line with building developments, both immediate and at Long Marston Airfield and Meon Vale.

The drainage systems cannot cope as it is with surface water nor waste.

It's great that water retention and re-use is seen as a priority.
Especially this sentence
"Major development should consider greywater recycling systems, particularly shared/communal systems."

The Environmental Improvement Plan 2023 Action 7 calls for a review of Building Regulations on water efficiency, reuse, and drainage, proposing a standard of 105 litres per person per day (l/p/d), or 100 l/p/d in areas of serious water stress. The 2021 Water Stressed Areas Classification identifies Severn Trent’s region as stressed, but the data is outdated. Severn Trent’s 2024 draft water resources management plan targets 110 l/p/d by 2050. Robust up-to-date evidence should be provided to justify stricter requirements of 100 l/p/d. Furthermore, it is recommended to align to Building Regulations in line with national requirements.
