Hello all,
Help or advice please.
My daughter is looking to extend to the rear of her property, with a public sewer/drain running across the rear. Please see the attached PDF.
She would like a full width extension, with the existing manhole sealed permanently, and a new double sealed manhole/rodding point within the footprint of the new extension as shown in Option 1 to service the re-located SVP.
However, the the local water authority have made a preliminary comment pre-application that this is not allowed. I have suggested to my daughter that Option 2 would be the preferred way to go. They cannot move the the new manhole/rodding point further away to the rear as the garden then falls towards the rear and the fall in the drain would not be achieved.
Has anyone any ideas as to how we can keep Option 1? or is Option 2 the only way to go?
Thanks in advance.
