The work will involve modelling the available capacity of a sewer network and the impacts on this network of connecting additional premises. This will include providing views on the appropriate modelling factors to use in this modelling work and the reasons for doing so. The output from the work will be a report which sets out the review process, the conclusions of the review and a commentary to explain the reasoning behind the conclusions.
