As contributors to the original SuDS Manual, we’re excited to announce that EPG will be co-authors of the new Rainwater Management Platform (RMP) – a national initiative funded by Ofwat’s Water Breakthrough Challenge and delivered by a leading industry consortium including CIRIA, Wessex Water, HR Wallingford, and others.
The RMP will be a free, digital platform designed to transform how the UK manages rainwater – with updated guidance and best practice for planning, design, construction, and maintenance of SuDS.
EPG will bring our indepth knowledge of SuDS design and engineering to topics such as but not limited to Pervious paving, blue and green roofs, Soakaways and challenging site conditions.
Key goals of the new platform include:
- Minimising sewer discharges
- Prevent pollution
- Promote rainfall as a resource
- Enhance climate resilience
- Deliver better long-term environmental outcomes
We’re proud to bring our engineering expertise to this important project and help shape the future of rainwater management in the UK.
