The Flood and Water Management Act 2010 is a signifi cant piece of legislation which includes provision
for the management of surface water in connection with flooding and coastal erosion.
The Act, which is being implemented, establishes ‘SUDS Approving Bodies’ in county and unitary local authorities in England with a role to approve drainage systems in new developments and redevelopments before construction.
To support this, new National Standards for SUDS are being drafted. This conference offers potential planners, landscape architects, designers, engineers, local authority
employees, etc a chance to hear from a team of experts the progress made to date.
