Full details of the OSR/WSUD system are attached.

7. The site immediately drains to a floodway and OSD here is predicted to adversely affect
mainstream flooding. A demonstration of this is attached.
As a result OSD is not proposed and an OSR/WSUD system is proposed instead.

face collection pits, grated drains and Water Sensitive Urban Design (WSUD) and
OSR features
 Areas of the site that by-pass detention system/s
 Location of any other constraints, e.g. easements, Sydney Water Assets (water/
sewer pipes) & Electricity Overhead Cables;
OSD storage tank detail designs (or OSD storage basins for non-residential devel-
opment) and surface collection pits include:

 All design dimensions including levels and inverts to AHD and OSD volumes
 Cross-Sectional details
 Discharge Control Pit/s
 Safe and practical maintenance access
The above details are shown on A1 or A3 size plans with a scale of 1:100 and/or 1:50
The OSD storage volume has been calculated using the Upper Parramatta River
Catchment Trust On Site Detention Handbook (3rd or 4th edition) calculation sheet.
The completed Design Summary Calculation Sheet has been signed by the Stormwater
Design Engineer and attached as Attachment - C.
The areas of the site (including roofs) to be drained to any rainwater collection
system and to the OSD system have been determined and are clearly indicated on Plan
No. ………

9. OSD Design (continued)

The remaining percentage of the total site area not drained to the roofwater and OSD
systems is ……...% (to be not more than 15%).
This is not a ‘drowned outlet’.
Because the designed discharge flow rate is greater than 30l/s, a connection to the near-
est Council stormwater pit has been shown with associated levels.

Overland flow from adjacent properties has been intercepted and disposed separately
without discharging into any proposed OSD system.

tem associated with this development proposal, that I have done so with a full understanding of the relevant

PARRA CERTIFICATION
“for all your building certification & inspection needs.”
Email: [email protected]
Phone: 9806 5684

Do you need a Construction Certificate?

 Once your Development Application has been approved by Council, your next step may be to
apply for a Construction Certificate and nominate a Principal Certifying Authority (PCA) to carry
out inspections.

 Did you know that legislation requires you, as the owner, to appoint the PCA and not your build-
er/architect?

 City of Parramatta Council boasts a Certification Team with many years of combined experience
in the industry. We take building regulation and customer service seriously and we are working
hard to ensure that our residents and local businesses can have a real alternative to private cer-
tifiers.

 We can offer you a complete package, from pre-Construction Certificate advice to the issuing of
your Final Occupation Certificate, and everything in between.

 Our strategic and practical experience will be used to ensure your project runs smoothly. We
measure our successes on the success of your development.

If you have any further questions, no matter how big or small, please don’t hesitate to contact Parra
Certification on 9806 5684 or alternatively by email at: [email protected]
