The approved drainage works shall be implemented in accordance with the approved details before the first occupation/use of the development hereby permitted and shall be retained thereafter. Reason: To ensure development does not exacerbate flood risk and deals with surface water run-off from the site in a sustainable manner, in accordance with policies SWDP28, SWDP29 and SWDP 30 of the South Worcestershire Development Plan,2016 and the emerging Policies of the South Worcestershire Development Plan Review (namely SWDPR 38 & SWDPR 39) and the relevant aims and objectives of the National Planning Policy Framework.
