    Hi guys

    Just wondering does anyone know what sewer system is in place in Waterford City?? Im guessing its more than likely a separate system meaning surface water and foul water are separate.

    Also looking for rainfall data for waterford??

    cheers

    The sewer system in Waterford City has to handle over 1000 M3/Hr 24/7

    A visit to the E.P.T in Bellview could help with the engineering aspect sewers and interceptors and an idea of D.W.F & W.W.F trends.

    This link might help for rainfall indication:

    Hi there
    Yeah the waste water treatment plant is definately worth a trip to find out some answers.

    I got sorted with the rainfall data for last year so I can use that and the data from met.ie to work out what I need.

    I am doin my thesis on 'feasibility of retrofitting rainwater harvesting systems to urban homes' so im trying to figure out what to fo with the used recycled water.

    Thanks
