Abstract

Provides guidance on: matters which are likely to arise from the implementation of section 42 of the Flood and Water Management Act 2010, which limits the existing right of a developer to connect to the public sewerage system and establishes new requirements for the construction and adoption of sewers and lateral drains that are proposed to connect to an existing public sewer. Also provides guidance on: interpretation of the legislative requirements, including the Welsh Ministers’ Standards for new gravity foul sewers and lateral drains, the forthcoming Sewer Adoption Agreement Regulations 2012; the Water Industry (Schemes for Adoption of Private Sewers) Regulations 2011 with respect to the supplementary transfer of private sewers; and processes which are not susceptible to regulation.
