Disconnection of Rainwater
Incentive scheme to disconnect Stormwater
Due to climate change, it is going to rain more often and harder. The sewer pipes cannot handle this volume of water. As a result, the sewers sometimes overflow and streets become flooded. The rain that falls on the roof of your house or shed now flows through the drainpipe into the sewer system. This is clean water and does not really belong in the sewer system. You can disconnect this water from the sewerage system and thus limit future flooding. The municipality of Leudal wants to encourage this and provides a financial contribution in the form of the 'Disconnection subsidy for rainwater'.
For whom is this scheme intended?
The scheme is intended for owners of private land with paved surface, located within the territory of the Municipality of Leudal.
When can you submit an application?
An application must be submitted prior to the disconnection activities. The disconnection activities may not begin until the application is approved by the municipality.
What activities can you apply for a grant for?
Grant can be applied for:
- disconnecting at least 40m2 of roof area from drainage through the sewer system;
How do I apply?
You use the online application form. Applying is quick and easy.
