Suggested response to YW:

Dear Sir/Madam,
Re: Land at Park Road, Worsborough, Barnsley – Discharge of Condition 16 (Drainage) of Planning Application 2020/0992
Thank you for your response dated 15th April, regarding the proposed drainage arrangements for the above development.
We note your objection to the discharge of Condition 16 and wish to provide clarification in response to the points raised. Following your comments, the drainage strategy has been revised accordingly:

  1.
Infiltration and Surface Water Disposal
a) The revised drainage design now incorporates soakaways for the disposal of surface water runoff. These have been designed based on the results of the ground investigation and infiltration testing carried out on site, which confirmed that infiltration is viable.
b) As a result, the revised surface water strategy now uses infiltration as the primary means of disposal, in accordance with the surface water disposal hierarchy promoted by Yorkshire Water.
c) Therefore, discharge to the public sewer is no longer proposed for curtilage surface water.
  2.
Highway Drainage
a) The on-site road is intended for adoption by the Local Highway Authority (LHA). Accordingly, the highway drainage is shown to connect to the existing highway drain in Park Road, which has been identified as an appropriate means of disposal for adoptable highway runoff.
b) We understand and accept that further liaison with the LHA and Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA) may be required to confirm this arrangement, and we are prepared to provide supporting evidence or amendments if requested.

We trust this updated information will allow you to remove your objection to the discharge of Condition 16. Should you require any further details or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Yours faithfully,

Lee Barnes
