The art of discharge consents

With the Environment Agency’s focus on environmental compliance and good practice on construction sites, we have noticed an increased requirement for robust construction-phase planning. This includes the management of surface water within the temporary works phase of developments and infrastructure projects. RSK Geosciences supports a number of clients in the formation of construction-phase strategies, including the management of surface water. Management and discharge of surface water has become a key consideration within the phasing of works and construction.

RSK Geosciences Principal Consultant Jonathan Pearson will guide us through permits and consenting options with respect to construction water discharge, with a focus on the Environment Agency permit system and the key timings for permit applications, together with the data required to support the application.
