Wastewater – Boxgrove drains to Tangmere Wastewater Treatment Works (WWTW). The evidence base submitted with Reg 19 confirms that Tangmere WWTW had (as of 01.01.22) remaining dwelling capacity for an additional 3556 new homes (with an Environment Agency discharge licence for 3,000 additional homes).

The proposed housing allocation (to include the adopted Local Plan provision) totalled an additional 1,300 new homes west of Tangmere and would leave a residual capacity of over 2,000 new homes to be accommodated at Tangmere WWTW. Wastewater infrastructure is therefore not a constraint to Boxgrove Parish accommodating a strategic level of growth (i.e circa 200 homes plus). This evidence should be reflected in the Plan.
