To access a copy of the relevant document please follow the below ; http://wales.gov.uk/topics/planning/?lang=en IMPORTANT CHANGES TO SEWER ADOPTION AND CONNECTION. On 1st October 2012 important changes came into force for any building and construction work that involves connection to the public sewerage network in Welsh Water's operating area. From that date a new adoption process, which is mandatory for all sewers and lateral drains connecting to the public sewerage system, and new construction standards set by the Welsh Ministers' for gravity foul sewers and lateral drains will come into force. These changes follow the transfer of private sewers on October 1st 2011, when ownership of the vast majority of private sewers and lateral drains which link with the public sewer network transferred to Welsh Water. This clarified the issue of ownership and maintenance. For further details please refer to the following:- www.dwrcymru.com - Sewer Adoption and Connection Leaflet Welsh Government Newsletter August 2012 and website With respect to this application and the Building Regulations Schedule 1 requirements of H1/H4, The Council has examined Dwr Cymru Welsh Water’s Map of Public Sewers (MoPS) in respects of any existing Sewerage Undertaker apparatus which may be built over by, or is within 3m of, the proposals. No such apparatus was indicated on the relevant MoPS and therefore Building Control does not have a responsibility to formally consult with the Sewerage Undertaker in respect of these proposals. However, private sewers and lateral drains are not currently shown on the MoPS and therefore, agreement/permission for the proposals in respects of any apparatus which is subsequently noted and/or exposed on site (but which is NOT currently shown on the MoPS) will need to be sought and obtained directly by the Applicant and/or Developer from Dwr Cymru Welsh Water and will not be pursued by the Council. The requirement for such an agreement sits outside the jurisdiction of the Building Regulations and therefore will not be a relevant consideration in the Councils Passing of Plans/Acceptance of Notices and will not be a relevant consideration in the Councils approval of works on site under H1 to H4.
