How to read, interpret and understand a stormwater and hydrology report

The management of water quality and quantity is becoming an increasingly important issue in development assessment.

Best practice water management is more than an engineering exercise; it involves designing, integrating, implementing and managing water solutions to meet safety, health, environmental and aesthetic requirements.

Emma will address what planners should know about stormwater management and hydrology, including

• the relevant terminology
• the methodology used in hydrology/flooding assessment
• the structure of a hydrology/flooding report
• who is qualified to do the work
• how to brief a consultant
• the types of requirements that councils and SARA are regularly imposing on proponents
• what flooding engineers wished planners knew
