In relation to water supply and wastewater infrastructure, any application near to the
SRN would be needed to submit a flood risk assessment and drainage strategy to be
reviewed and agreed prior to planning permission being granted.

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”.

As currently worded Bird Group do not support the stated requirement that all development proposals will need to “Minimise the need for new water supply infrastructure by directing development to areas where there is a guaranteed and adequate supply of water, having due regard to Severn Trent Water's Resources Management Plan and Strategic Business Plan as well as findings of the Water Cycle Study”.
While Bird Group acknowledge that is preferable to direct new developments to areas where there is a guaranteed and adequate supply of water, it is common for water supplies to be reinforced and new services extended to serve new developments.

We note the intention of Draft Policy 1 to require applicants to ensure that there is adequate water supply to serve the development. However, the water authorities have a legal obligation to ensure that there is an adequate water supply to serve new development. Therefore, this should be deleted from Policy 1, as it is beyond the scope of the applicant to deliver.
