Register your interestThis Urban Pollution Management (UPM) course provides an introduction to the UPM procedure, its regulatory background and an overview of the steps undertaken in UPM studies. An explanation of the wet weather modelling approaches used is discussed, and assessment against the wet weather standards is illustrated with a range of recent examples from the UK. This gives staff the confidence to scope, undertake and review UPM studies.
As an initial developer of UPM best practice in the 1990s and author of the UKWIR's Guide to Modelling Intermittent Discharges (2014), WRc is an industry leader with a strong track record in providing these, and related, courses to government bodies, regulators and water companies.
Delegates include those involved in storm water overflow planning and scheme design. For example, water quality and network modellers; hydraulic engineers and wastewater asset managers, as well as those working on Drainage and Wastewater Management Plans.
Participants may be drawn from any area of business or service where policy for permitting wet weather intermittent discharges impacts on their decision making.
The course module structure is mapped to the UPM procedure:
Course length (1 or 2 days) can be tailored to teams' roles and requirements.
