Description
Sediment can be found in urban drainage catchments on the surface, in gully pots, drains and sewers, and at sewage treatment works. Responsibility for cleaning is fragmented between different authorities in the UK and is rarely considered on a catchment scale although sediment movement follows catchment drainage patterns. This report reviews the issues, sources, characteristics and quantities of sediment in each part of the drainage system and includes information on sediment build-up rates on the surface and in gully pots.
