This webinar, held on 25th September 2024, was Session #10 of the ‘Stormwater Fundamental’ series in 2024, focused on Development Assessment.
Within Australia, development applications are commonly required to demonstrate how ‘post construction’ (or ‘operational phase’) stormwater quality targets will be achieved. Stormwater quality management plans/ reports (and associated information) are subsequently prepared in support of development applications - and submitted to local government (and/ or other regulatory authorities) for assessment and, if appropriate, approval. Development Assessment personnel subsequently have the challenging task of undertaking a rapid review of technical information (including reporting, drawings and modelling files) to determine whether the proposed strategy (and associated stormwater control measures, SCMs) is appropriate - and provide suitable development approval conditions.
The session focusses on the following key areas (for both proprietary and non-proprietary SCMs):
- Modelling ‘tricks’ that are commonly applied that will exaggerate the performance of SCMs, and how to quickly identify them
- Design, implementation, and management mistakes that are commonly made that invariably lead to the poor function of SCMs (including several ‘real world’ examples)
- Approval conditions to consider applying to support the appropriate long-term function of SCMs proposed as part of new development.
The 60-minute session included a short presentation by Ocean Protect’s Brad Dalrymple, followed by Q&A with attendees.
