Surface Water Drainage

The canal network offers an excellent drainage solution for surface water.  Drainage into the canal network offers developers, commercial practices and private individuals a cost efficient and sustainable way of managing water.

We will only accept clean surface water. We will not accept foul, polluted or contaminated water. Discharges of trade or sewage effluent are not normally accepted on water quality and ecological grounds due to the relatively static nature of our waters.

In addition you will require a separate licence with us which includes standard clauses to ensure that issues of water quantity and quality requirements, as well as any construction issues, are properly addressed.

Surface water discharges to our network must also meet the current Scottish Environment Protection Agency best practice and statutory requirements for Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS).

If you are interested in discharging water to the canal please contact the property team on 0141 332 6936.
