SUMMARY:Pollution of our Waters Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Castle Debates and the CIWEM South Eastern branch\nEvent description\nThe CIWEM South Eastern branch are delighted to join the Castle Debates for a discussion on the state of our rivers and other waterways. \nThe most common sources of pollution of our waters in the UK are: \na) sewage from domestic and industrial processes; \nb) agricultural effluent\, e.g. from use of pesticides and fertilisers; \nc) oil pollution\, e.g. spillage and loss from storage facilities; \nd) radioactive waste\, e.g. industrial\, medical and domestic sources; \ne) fly tipping in rivers; and \nf) marine pollution from waste dumping and waste washed from land e.g. plastics. \nThe Debate will describe the issues in detail and discuss the various remedies to improve the quality of these wetland habitats. \nPart of the CIWEM Pollution digital series.

SUMMARY:Bioretention Research & Practise - Outcomes & impacts of 3 year collaboration research project (Urban Green DaMS)
DESCRIPTION:This free event\, hosted by The University of Sheffield and Newcastle University\, will provide insight into the outcomes and impacts of a three-year collaborative research project (Urban Green DaMS) to improve design parameters for biofilters/raingardens.\n\nLimited places to in-person event\nPlaces are limited and will be allocated on a first-come\, first-served basis. If you are unable to register online\, please email Susan Richards to be added to the wait list. We reserve the right to limit the number of registrations per company.The session will be recorded and made available to anyone unable to attend in person. Please register for the ‘seminar recording’ to be notified when this is available. \nBackground\nDrainage/flood protection engineers need to be able to quantify how SuDS devices respond to rainfall events – including the extreme events that are responsible for flooding – to effectively use SuDS for stormwater management purposes. \nBiofilters (also known as raingardens) manage runoff from catchments typically ten times larger than their own plan area and provide filtration of pollutants associated with road runoff.ly \nThe ’Urban Green DaMS’ project collected data from a combination of full-scale test beds (lysimeters) at Newcastle University and column tests at The University of Sheffield. The data will help understand and quantify the influence of design parameters (growing media composition\, planting selection and outlet control configuration) on the rainfall retention (ET rates) and runoff detention performance (K values and outlet controls) of lined biofilter systems. \nFindings of the three-year EPSRC-funded collaborative research project will be summarised by the researchers and use of the data within modelling for rainwater management will be discussed. \nSuDS practitioners will talk about the impact of this work on design\, implementation\, regulatory targets\, and guidance including incorporation into the forthcoming update of CIRIA’s The SuDS Manual (C753F). They will also provide an overview of important ongoing retrofit SuDS projects. \nSponsorship opportunities\nFor more information about sponsorship opportunities\, please contact Louise Walker. \nWhy attend \n\nLearn how different types of vegetation and outlet controls impact surface water retention and detention in raingardens.\nUnderstand the impact of evapotranspiration and hydraulic conductivity on raingarden performance.\nDiscover how new data on raingarden performance can be included in the most commonly used modelling tools.\nParticipate in discussions on appropriate regulatory targets for surface water management.\nHear about the planned approach to update to The SuDS Manual (C753F) and incorporate knowledge from the latest research and practice..\nGain insight into the evolution of retrofit SuDS from practitioners involved in large-scale projects.\nEarn valuable CPD.\n\nWho should attend\nLead Local Flood Authorities\, Local authority planners\, Local authority highways teams\, Regeneration and redevelopment specialists\, Urban designers\, Engineering consultants\, Landscape architects\, Sewerage undertakers\, Environmental regulators\, Researchers\, SuDS designers\, Environmental organisations\, susdrain partners and supporters. \nWhen\nMonday 19 September 2022\n12:30 – 18:00 \nProgramme\n12:30 Welcome lunch \n13:30 Welcome and introduction\nProfessor Virginia Stovin\, Professor of Green Infrastructure for\nStormwater Management\, The University of Sheffield \n13:45 Effects of different vegetation and outlet controls on retention and detention\nwithin biofilters – lysimeter findings\nDr Daniel Green\, Research Associate: Sustainable Drainage\,\nNewcastle University \n14:00 – Effect of different vegetation on evapotranspiration rates and hydraulic\nconductivity within biofilters – column test findings\nDr Simon De-Ville\, Research Associate\, The University of Sheffield \n14:15 – Reflections on bioretention modelling\nDr Simon De-Ville\, Research Associate\, The University of Sheffield \n14:30 – Modelling SuDS with Autodesk InfoDrainage\nDaniel Yardley\, Product Engineer\, Autodesk \n14:45 – Interactive discussion and Q&A \n15:00 – Networking break \n15:30 – Stormwater management metrics: how do we quantify stormwater\nmanagement performance and what should our regulatory targets be?\nProfessor Virginia Stovin\, Professor of Green Infrastructure for\nStormwater Management\, The University of Sheffield \n15:45 – Updates to the CIRIA SuDS Manual\nBridget Woods-Ballard\, Technical Director\, HR Wallingford \n16:00 – – SuDS Design and Implementation – 20 years on\nZac Tudor\, Associate Landscape Architect\, Arup \n16:15 – Severn Trent Water’s Mansfield retrofitting programme\nJohn Brewington\, Regional Development Manager\, Severn Trent Water \n16:30 – Interactive discussion and Q&A \n16:55 – Closing remarks \n17:00 – Networking drinks \n\n\nFees\nsusdrain partners and supporters Free to attend\nCIRIA members Free to attend\nNon-members Free to attendBooking\nPlease sign in or create an account to register online for this event.\nIf you are experiencing issues registering online\, please complete and return the booking form to Susan Richards.\nAlternatively please contact us on 07933 181 765 or email our Customer Services team.\nConfirmation emails will be sent 10 days before the event. \nNotice for new bookings from EU/EEA customers only\nCIRIA is currently unable to directly process your transaction if you are purchasing from the EU/EEA region.
