- Advisories: As of 7th January 2019, this proposed development may be subject to Schedule 3 of the Flood and Water Management Act 2010. The development may therefore require approval of Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS) features, from the determining SuDS Approval Body (SAB), in accordance with the 'Statutory standards for sustainable drainage systems – designing, constructing, operating and maintaining surface water drainage systems'. The applicant is advised that some public sewers and lateral drains may not be recorded on D"{r Cymru/Welsh Water maps of public sewers because they were originally privately owned and were transferred into public ownership by nature of the Water Industry (Schemes for Adoption of Private Sewers) Regulations 2011. The presence of such assets may affect the proposal. In order to assist D"{r Cymru/Welsh Water in dealing with the proposal the applicant may contact D"{r Cymru/Welsh Water to establish the location and status of the apparatus. Under the Water Industry Act 1991 D"{r Cymru/Welsh Water has rights of access to its apparatus at all times. In accordance with Planning Policy Wales (Edition 12) and Technical Advice Note 12 (Design), the applicant is advised to take a sustainable approach in considering water supply in new development proposals, including utilising approaches that improve water efficiency and reduce water consumption. Dwr Cymru Welsh Water would recommend that the applicant liaises with the relevant Local Authority Building Control department to discuss their water efficiency requirements. In addition to planning permission, it is the applicant’s responsibility to ensure all other permits/consents/licences relevant to the development are secured. Please refer to NRW’s website (https://naturalresources.wales/permits-and-permissions/?lang=en) for further details.
- Cyngorion: O 7 Ionawr 2019 ymlaen, gall y datblygiad arfaethedig hwn fod yn ddarostyngedig i Atodlen 3 o Ddeddf Rheoli Llifogydd a D"{r 2010. Felly, efallai y bydd angen cymeradwyo nodweddion Systemau Draenio Cynaliadwy (SDCau) ar y datblygiad, gan y Corff Cymeradwyo SDCau (SAB) sy'n penderfynu, yn unol â'r 'Safonau statudol ar gyfer systemau draenio cynaliadwy - dylunio, adeiladu, gweithredu a chynnal systemau draenio d"{r wyneb'. Cynghorir yr ymgeisydd nad yw rhai carthffosydd cyhoeddus a draeniau ochrol o bosibl wedi'u cofnodi ar fapiau carthffosydd cyhoeddus D"{r Cymru/Welsh Water oherwydd eu bod yn wreiddiol yn eiddo preifat ac wedi'u trosglwyddo i berchnogaeth gyhoeddus oherwydd natur Rheoliadau'r Diwydiant D"{r (Cynlluniau ar gyfer Mabwysiadu Carthffosydd Preifat) 2011. Gall presenoldeb asedau o'r fath effeithio ar y cynnig. Er mwyn cynorthwyo D"{r Cymru i ddelio â'r cynnig, gall yr ymgeisydd gysylltu â D"{r Cymru/Welsh Water i sefydlu lleoliad a statws y cyfarpar. O dan Ddeddf y Diwydiant D"{r 1991 mae gan D"{r Cymru/Welsh hawliau mynediad i'w gyfarpar bob amser. Yn unol â Pholisi Cynllunio Cymru (Argraffiad 12) a Nodyn Cyngor Technegol 12 (Dylunio), cynghorir yr ymgeisydd i fabwysiadu dull cynaliadwy wrth ystyried cyflenwad d"{r mewn cynigion datblygu newydd, gan gynnwys defnyddio dulliau sy'n gwella effeithlonrwydd d"{r ac yn lleihau'r defnydd o dd"{r. Byddai D"{r Cymru yn argymell bod yr ymgeisydd yn cysylltu ag adran Rheoli Adeiladu'r Awdurdod Lleol perthnasol i drafod eu gofynion effeithlonrwydd d"{r. Yn ogystal â chaniatâd cynllunio, cyfrifoldeb yr ymgeisydd yw sicrhau bod pob caniatâd/trwydded/ caniatâd arall sy'n berthnasol i'r datblygiad wedi'i sicrhau.
