Surface Water Management: The Developing Picture and Key Lessons
The pace of change in surface water management is very fast with the implementation of the Flood and Water Management Act and the rapidly developing involvement of Local Authorities. The aim of this conference is to focus on surface water management and the key issues of legislation, implementation and the need for change, funding and the role of water companies, planning, implementation and SUDS. Leading speakers from the policy, local authority, delivery and consultancy sectors are presenting with ample time for audience questions and points.
