At GCA we provide drainage solutions for storm and foul sewerage design

These range from simple gravity-fed sewerage networks, to the feasibility and design of pumping stations and balancing facilities. These can be used to determine peak flows and ensure a highly efficient system.

S106 Agreements

We can support S106 agreements when these are required, ensuring that statutory requirements are complied with.

Other consents

Consents may be required from a range of bodies including the Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA) for ordinary watercourses, the Environment Agency (EA) for main rivers, or the Canal & River Trust (CRT) for canals. Our expert engineers can help in all cases and guide you through the processes.

SUDS

The Environment Agency recognises the damage caused by historic conventional drainage systems and advocates an approach that replicates natural systems as far as possible.

Sustainable drainage can offer cost-effective solutions that are easy to manage, attractive and resilient to heavy use.

Early discussions with the relevant authorities are essential to fix agreed solutions and optimise preliminary costings, an area often overlooked at project feasibility stage.
