'Are Drainage Schemes Still Relevant?'

SVIC and ALDE Member Forum on 18 July 2024

Melbourne Water has been supporting development with drainage schemes for decades, but have they evolved effectively alongside the industry knowledge base, technology, innovation, and overall need?

Stormwater Victoria and ALDE are teaming up to bring our members an evening of productive discussion on how we can work together to improve Drainage Schemes including the planning and delivery of integrated water management.The session is intended to be interactive, whereby you, our valued members will share experiences and test ideas around existing implementation frameworks (such as DSS’s, PSP’s and DCP’s), their current effectiveness and potential future role in supporting the delivery of IWM outcomes.

Featuring a panel of industry experts in engineering, planning, law and economics, we will discuss the most pressing challenges of implementing IWM strategies in the modern development context. We will collectively brainstorm how we can work together to influence and improve existing regulatory processes and better support the delivery of Victoria’s Housing Statement: The Decade Ahead 2024-2034.
