Surface Water Drainage Design – Newton St. Cyres, Devon, UK
Southwest Environmental have produced drainage reports on a very rapid turnaround for a private client in Devon.
Planning officers at Devon County Council concerned with the changes to site run-off characteristics pending an extension.
Planning was due to be determined just a few days ahead of when Southwest Environmental were commissioned. We produced a report on a 24 hour turn around, this was then put before the concerned planning officer and the application as a whole was approved.
