Stormwater Management Plans

SWMP · Clause 56 · EPA 1739.1 · Melbourne Water

The most common stormwater report required for Victorian planning permits. Our SWMPs address all three core components:

  • Quantity Assessment — hydrologic analysis of stormwater runoff impacts
  • Quality Assessment — pollutant load analysis and treatment train design
  • Lawful Point of Discharge — identification and approval of compliant discharge points

Single dwellings · Dual occupancies · Multi-unit · Commercial · Industrial · Subdivisions

STORM Scoring

Best Practice · 80% TSS · 45% TP · 45% TN

STORM (Source Treatment and Reuse Model) demonstrates best practice stormwater quality management required by Melbourne Water and local councils as a condition of planning permits.

We prepare STORM assessments for all development types, targeting the mandatory pollutant reduction benchmarks: 80% Total Suspended Solids, 45% Total Phosphorus, and 45% Total Nitrogen.

MUSIC Modelling

Detailed Modelling · Treatment Train · EPA Compliance

MUSIC (Model for Urban Stormwater Improvement Conceptualisation) is required for larger or more complex developments where detailed modelling is needed beyond STORM.

Our MUSIC modelling covers detailed water quality analysis, treatment train optimisation, and full compliance with Melbourne Water and EPA best practice guidelines.
