Generate Appropriate Meteorological Templates for WSUD Modelling and Easily Optimise WSUD Models for Any Project – Half Day Morning Workshop @ Canada Bay Club
Apr 16 @ 9:00 am – 12:30 pm

Workshop Overview Part 1

A meteorological template is the first input required in WSUD modelling and significantly influences results. The creation of an appropriate 10-year, 6-minute interval template with correct PET and no missing rainfall data is a complex process. This workshop equips participants with knowledge and step-by-step processes to enable them to create appropriate meteorological templates. The templates can be used in WSUD modelling, reporting and assessments. 

Workshop Overview Part 2

Optimization of WSUD models is a manual trial and error exercise that consumes more resources with model increases in complexity and size. This workshop equips participants with knowledge and step-by-step processes which save time in building models to size council/public assets or design treatment trains meeting the Council’s development requirements. 

Presenter: Mircea Stancu, Cleanstormwater

The cost of the half-day workshop includes morning tea and lunch. Stormwater NSW and Partner Member: $325 Non Member: $425

The Operations and Maintenance Manual Workshop will be held at the Canada Bay Club in Five Dock on Monday 16 April 2024 in conjunction with the franc.sydney Conference. This full day workshop covers all aspects of operations and maintenance for all types of stormwater treatment measures.

The workshop is aimed at Maintenance Managers and Cleaning Contractors, as well as Council staff involved in the sizing, siting and approval of stormwater treatment measures. The workshop focuses on the guidelines, produced by Stormwater NSW, which have become the industry standard and reference document for the maintenance of stormwater assets across the country.

The cost of the full-day workshop includes morning tea and lunch. A copy of the Guidelines will be provided electronically for all attendees.

Developing a New Process to Streamline Stormwater Quality Reporting & Compliance across all stages of Development – Half Day Afternoon Workshop @ Canada Bay Club
Apr 16 @ 12:30 pm – 5:00 pm

Stormwater quality assessment and compliance are key components of Development Applications (DA) across Australia. Challenges in the current process can incur time and resource costs to both councils and consultants, with sub-optimal results. Traditionally, creating a WSUD report requires Consultants and Councils to spend large amounts of time scouring guidelines for obscure parameters and files, manually entering values in difficult-to-use software, and convoluted optimisation and reporting processes. This leads to submissions that are rife with errors, difficult to verify, and consume precious Council resources to assess, potentially contributing to suboptimal outcomes when WSUD assets are delivered.

This workshop will bring participants together to identify challenges faced by stakeholders in the WSUD assessment and reporting process. The workshop will provide a hands-on experience in using and developing digital automation tools to generate and assess typical WSUD reports as part of the DA process. Participants are then given the opportunity to discuss their experience regarding their processes, typical challenges, and identified improvements. This Workshop aims to provide participants with learnings and examples on how they can develop and implement their own internal processes to streamline WSUD assessments and reporting.
