TOP TWEETS: #SUDS On average, there are 500 million tweets every day on Twitter. We look at what people were saying after Wales implemented new regulations on 7 January that make SuDS compulsory in new developments.. #SuDS compulsory in Welsh new developments from 7th Jan... great news - now let's implement in England?? @2B_Landscape A great step forward for #SuDS and one that the industry will watch with interest as best practice develops. @SDSWater So proud that the mandatory regulations for Sustainable Drainage Systems on new developments in Wales came in to force today. It's been a long journey, but we've developed an approach that'll produce well-designed #SuDS that can deliver so much for Wales! @MartynEvansNRW #SuDS is now compulsory on all new #Welsh developments. Given its full name is Sustainable Urban Drainage, this is a completely logical decision. I hope other UK nations follow suit! @StrongEmma Great to see Wales ensuring #SuDS will be properly designed with secure ownership & management & proud to have assisted in developing these standards with the @WelshGovernment. Let's see how things progress in England as a result. @hrwallingford Devolution takes another step forward for the people of Wales. SABs will take time to gel, but the eventual result will be less flood risk & greener communities. I'm very proud that the @Senedd has committed to this. @ianapharri Good to see @WelshGovernment bringing in new #SuDS regulations today - an important part of managing flood risk #flooding @AlastairRoss www.marshindustries.co.uk QualiTy inTegriTy reliabiliTy GUARANTEED Here at Marsh Industries we supply high quality off- mains drainage and rainwater harvesting products backed by extensive knowledge, experience and end-to-end customer support.
