01

Follow the connections

A watercourse connects a site to a wider landscape. Looking upstream and downstream can reveal questions that a boundary-only view misses.

02

Bring the right information together

Discuss available drainage, water quality and site records with your consultant. Clear maps and a shared understanding of the proposed changes help define useful questions.

03

Agree the scale of the work

The appropriate scope depends on the site and the project decision. A qualified water specialist can explain the information needed and the limits of the work proposed.
