2 Credits are available for using SUDS to improve water quality of the rainwater discharged and/or for protecting the quality of the receiving waters by:

  • Ensuring no discharge to the watercourse for rainfall depths up to 5mm (follow guidance in the Interim Code of Practice for Sustainable Drainage systems; or
  • Establish agreements for the ownership, long term operation and maintenance of all sustainable drainage elements used.

Credits awarded by default if the site discharges rainwater directly to a tidal estuary or the sea.

Credits can be awarded by default if the site discharges rainwater directly to a tidal estuary or the sea, because compliance with discharge flow rate requirements will not be required.

Design SUDS in Source Control and incorporate into the network in Simulation, covered in training course F.

Test for 5mm discharge using the ICP SUDS test in the Design Audit Wizard in Simulation APT, covered in training courses C, G and H.
