EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This Drainage Strategy is part of a suite of documents that supports the planning application

by Cardiff Council, for a development of a solar farm and ancillary development on land at

Lamby Way.

The development covers a total area of approximately 16.89 hectares of former landfill land

and comprises the installation of solar panels and associated infrastructure, including an

access route and a cabling route to a substation nearby.

This Drainage Strategy outlines the risk of flooding from all sources, including from fluvial,

tidal, surface water, groundwater, existing and proposed drainage infrastructure and other

artificial sources.

This Drainage Strategy outlines the existing surface drainage regime of the site and how this will be retained to ensure runoff is disposed at greenfield runoff rates.

The Proposed Development is therefore considered to be safe and appropriate in this regard

and can be suitably drained for the lifetime of the development.

1 INTRODUCTION

1.1.1 Wardell Armstrong (WA) was instructed by Cardiff Council (The Applicant) to produce

a Drainage Strategy for the development of a Solar Farm on land at Lamby Way,

Cardiff.

1.1.2 This Report details the proposed surface water drainage strategy.

Purpose of Report

1.2.1 The purpose of this report is to provide a technical appraisal of the flood risk pre- and

post-development by assessing all potential sources of flood risk. In addition, this

report provides a comprehensive site wide surface water strategy. This report will

form part of a larger suite of information to support the planning application for the

proposed development of the site.

1.2.2 WA accepts no responsibility or liability for any use that is made of this document

other than by the client for the purposes for which it was originally commissioned and

prepared.

2 EXISTING SITE CONDITIONS

Site Location and Description

2.1.1 The proposed development at Lamby Way, to the east of Cardiff is centred on

National Grid Reference ST 321900 177800.

2.1.2 The site comprises the western most portion of the former landfill site, bounded to

the west by the Rhymney River, to the south by the Severn Estuary, to the north by

Lamby Way, and to the east by further former landfill site land.

2.1.3 The proposed site is approximately 16.89 Hectares in total.

2.1.4 The site address is Lamby Way, Rumney, Cardiff, CF3 2HP. See Figure 1 below for site

location:

Figure 1 – Site Location Plan

(Source: Google Earth)

2.1.5 Topographical information has been provided, this is shown in Drawing CA11469-004.

The site slopes slightly from approximately 25m AoD in the East to 21m AoD to the

West with a slight depression around the pond at 20m AoD and rising again to 24.5m

towards the south west. Using the Pond as a reference the sites slopes slightly to the

north to approximately 16m AoD and to the south to 15m.

Proximity to Watercourses

2.2.1 The development site is bounded to the west, northwest and southwest by the

Rhymney River. The confluence of the Rhymney River with the Severn Estuary is

approximately 300m directly South of the site. To the east of the development site,

separated by the remaining eastern part of the historic landfill site, is an unnamed

drainage channel approximately 1.2km in length. 500m to the north of the

development site is Parc Tredelerch Lake. There is a small pond area towards the

northeast of the site, covering approximately 3,000m2.

Geology

2.3.1 British Geological Survey (BGS) records suggest the entirety of the site is underlain by

bedrock geology of Mercia Mudstone. Superficial deposits, including clays, silts and sand, consistent with those from Tidal Flats, have been recorded in the vicinity.

2.3.2 The development is proposed on the site of a former landfill which has been capped.

The reinstatement details are shown in Drawing CSP11070-104.

3 POTENTIAL SOURCES OF FLOODING

3.1.1 The main sources of flooding identified by Planning Policy Wales, Edition 10 December

2018 (PPW) are ‘…from rivers and the sea, directly from rainfall on the ground surface

and rising groundwater, overwhelmed sewers and drainage systems, and from

reservoirs, canals and lakes and other artificial sources’.

3.1.2 These sources will be considered in turn in the following sections.

Fluvial and Tidal Flooding

3.2.1 Fluvial (river) flooding occurs when the capacity of watercourses (including streams,

brooks and ditches etc.) are exceeded due to intense rainfall. Natural Resources Wales

have produced mapping to indicate areas which may be at risk of fluvial flooding,

called Flood Zones, depicted on the Flood Map for Planning.

3.2.2 Following review of the existing Natural Resources Wales flood maps, the proposed

development area of the site is located within flood risk zone1, due to its elevated

position against neighbouring sites (See Figure 2 below).

Page 6

3.2.3 As a flood Zone 1 site this development area comprises land assessed as having a less

than 1 in 1,000 annual probabilities of river or sea flooding (<0.1%). Therefore, this

area of the site is suitable for development in terms of fluvial / tidal flood risk.

Pluvial/Surface Water Flooding

3.3.1 Pluvial flooding is caused by intense rainfall events, which collect onto surfaces at such

a rate that prohibits the efficient drainage and runoff of water into watercourses or

drainage infrastructure. This then contributes to surface water flooding where the

drainage systems become inundated, or permeable areas become saturated creating

an impermeable area effectively which eventually leads to surface water flooding.

Natural Resources Wales ‘Risk of Flooding from Surface Water’ Map examines the risk

of flooding from surface water without accounting for infiltration or the influence of

drainage systems.

3.3.2 The likelihood of surface water flooding is split into four categories; ‘Very Low’, ‘Low’,

‘Medium’ and ‘High Risk’. The ‘Very Low’ category indicates areas that have a chance of flooding of less than 1 in 1000 (0.1%) each year. ‘Low’ risk is defined as an area that

has a chance of flooding of between 1 and 1000 (0.1%) and 1 in 100 (1%) in any year

with a depth of water between 0-300mm. The ‘Medium’ risk category is defined as an area that has a chance of flooding of between 1 in 100 (1%) and 1 in 30 (3.3%) with a

depth of water between 300mm-900mm, and the ‘High’ risk category has a chance of

flooding of greater than 1 in 30 (3.3%) with a depth of water of over 900mm.

3.3.3 The Natural Resources Wales surface water flooding map indicates that the majority

of the site is at very low risk of surface water flooding, meaning it has less than 0.1%

annual probability of flooding. However, there is an isolated area of the site which is

indicated to have a low surface water flood risk (See Figure 3 below), giving an annual

flooding probability of 0.1% to 1%. This area corresponds to the existing pond on the

site. The identified surface water flood risk is therefore accommodated within the

existing surface water drainage system.

3.3.4 The site is therefore considered to be at low risk of surface water flood.

Groundwater Flooding

3.4.1 Groundwater flooding can occur anywhere where groundwater levels rise above the

ground surface. Groundwater flooding can be difficult to predict and identify and is

often associated with surface water flooding.

3.4.2 As the site is a capped landfill, with a leachate drainage system, groundwater flooding

is not an issue for the site.

Existing Drainage

3.5.1 Flooding from sewers and drains can occur when capacity is exceeded or there is a

blockage or collapse in the network.

3.5.2 The surface water information provided by Cardiff Council indicates a series of

Manholes located to the south and west of site which direct the rainwater from the

landfill geocomposite drainage layer to a land drain bordering the edge of the site to

the west. The flows are then conveyed to the River Rhymney. Should flooding of the

sewers occur, flows would be contained within the land drainage at the edge of the

site.

3.5.3 The site is considered to be at low risk of flooding from existing sewers and drains.

Reservoirs, Canals and Lakes

3.6.1 Flooding from reservoirs, canals and lakes occurs when their associated dams,

embankments or other retaining structures fail or are breached.

3.6.2 There are no reservoirs near the site. Natural Resources Wales ‘Risk of Flooding from

Reservoirs’ mapping indicates that the site is not at risk of reservoir flooding. Please

refer to Figure 4 for details.

Historic Flooding:

3.7.1 No historic flooding has been identified on the proposed development site.

4 DEVELOPMENT PROPOSAL

4.1.1 The proposals are for an 8.7MW ground-mounted solar farm on approximately 16.89

Hectares of gently sloping land forming part of the waste landfill site at Lamby Way,

Rumney. A Site Layout Plan containing the solar panels array is reproduced in drawing

LAM-DWG002.

4.1.2 The solar panels will be formatted in rows across the site, in an appropriate south

facing direction at an angle of approximately 20 to 25 degrees from the ground.

4.1.3 The installation will include an estimated 30,688 individual panels combined to form

arrays that are arranged in rows. Each array will be supported by a galvanized steel

mounting structure supported in surface mounted concrete pads. The arrays are not

proposed to exceed 2.8m in height and the lower edge will be approximately 750mm above ground level.

4.1.4 Rows of panels will be separated by 5.18 metres minimum depending on the angle of

the panel. Please refer to Figure 5 for details. Figure 6 shows a typical structural support unit.

4.1.5 The Solar Panels will be secure into ballasted fixings with no penetrative works

required and no demolition works proposed to avoid any disturbance to the landfill engineered cap.

5 SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT STRATEGY

5.1.1 A sustainable strategy for the management of surface water runoff from the proposed

development has been prepared to ensure that flood risk to the site and the wider

area is not increased.

Landfill Existing Water Management Plan

5.2.1 The restored landfill at Lamby Way, Cardiff was fully capped using a geosynthetic

capping system comprised of a geocomposite drainage and protection layer,

impermeable geomembrane and protection geotextile. Please refer to Figure 7 and 8

for details.

Figure 7- Landfill Capping System Detail (Cardiff Council)

Figure 8 - Landfill Geocomposite Drainage Layer Detail (Cardiff Council)

5.2.2 The contaminated water (leachate) from the landfill currently discharge to the East of

the site where the effluent is treated prior to its discharge to the River Rhymney. See

Drawing CA11469-004 for details.

5.2.3 Surface water currently infiltrates into the soil cover where it is collected by the

Geocomposite draining layer and directed to a filter drain that runs along the west

Page 15: CARDIFF COUNCIL LAMBY WAY SOLAR FARM DRAINAGE … · 2019. 1. 21. · separated by the remaining eastern part of the historic landfill site, is an unnamed drainage channel approximately

CARDIFF COUNCIL LAMBY WAY SOLAR FARM DRAINAGE STRATEGY

CA11469/DRAFT JANUARY 2019

Page 12

and south of the site at the edge of the landfill. The effluent captured by the filter

drain is discharged at various points to the river Rhymney. See Drawing CA11469-004

for location and details.

5.2.4 In addition to this the part of the site drains to the attenuation pond in the centre of

the site, as shown on Drawing CA11469-004. This discharges to the River Rhymney to

the west via and open channel.

Additional Water Management Measures

5.3.1 It is proposed that the rainfall landing on the proposed solar panels will drain through

rainwater gaps and infiltrate into the ground beneath and between each row of

panels. From where it will infiltrate into the existing landfill capping drainage layer.

Figure 9 shows the cross section of a typical solar panel structural support unit.

Figure 9 – Typical Solar Panel Structural Support Unit – Cross Section

5.3.2 Ancillary equipment will be contained in small cabinets. Due to the size of the buildings

it is proposed that roof water will be discharged directly onto the surrounding ground

and infiltrates into the existing landfill capping drainage layer.

5.3.3 Soil compaction and disturbance of the capping layer should be kept to a minimum.

Any disturbances caused by the installation of the solar farm should be harrowed and

seeded prior to final commissioning.

Page 16: CARDIFF COUNCIL LAMBY WAY SOLAR FARM DRAINAGE … · 2019. 1. 21. · separated by the remaining eastern part of the historic landfill site, is an unnamed drainage channel approximately

CARDIFF COUNCIL LAMBY WAY SOLAR FARM DRAINAGE STRATEGY

CA11469/DRAFT JANUARY 2019

Page 13

5.3.4 Maintenance of the solar farm is unlikely to cause any major compaction of the soil;

Thus, the proposed development would not change the pre-development infiltration

rate of the underlying ground, which currently discharges at greenfield runoff rates.

5.3.5 Upon completion of the Solar Farm the vegetative cover of the site should be

maintained reducing the risk of soil erosion and reducing potential runoff.

6 CONCLUSIONS

6.1.1 The development of Land at Lamby Way will comprise the installation of a Solar Farm

which could produce 8.7MW of power on top of the restored landfill.

6.1.2 The proposal includes a provision for ground mounted solar panels with no

penetrative works required and no demolition works proposed. Minimising the impact

of installation in the engineered capping of the landfill.

6.1.3 Natural Resources Wales mapping indicates that the site is located wholly in Flood

Zone 1. The site is at low risk of flooding from all other sources.

6.1.4 Existing drainage features will be retained, with no increase in the current greenfield

run off from the site.

6.1.5 Rainfall falling on to the solar panels would runoff directly to the ground below and between the rows of panels and infiltrate into the landfill engineered cap. The

Geocomposite drainage layer will convey the flows to the existing system as it is

currently doing.

6.1.6 The site should remain vegetated through construction and operation of the solar

farm to prevent soil erosion.

6.1.7 The proposed drainage strategy anticipates that the installation of the solar farm will have no impact upon the current surface water regime for the site.

6.1.1 On consideration of the above, and on implementation of this strategy, it is considered

that the development will be appropriate in terms of flood risk and can be suitably drained for the development lifetime.
