hi all
i have been trying to get planning on a piece of land which my dad bought some years back, just a couple of acres. two years have past and many $$$$ later.
the land failed the percolation test. the land is in wexford, the problem with building in wexford is that if you fail to pass a percolation test you must have an unpolluted stream to pipe too. my stream is polluted from existing houses along the road which cant be helped.
i have submitted planning in the past with various systems on the market reed beds etc etc without success.
basically i need the site to pass a percolation test to further matters. i have had enginners on site but the soil is marley with poor drainage so they have all told me to forget about the whole thing and buy a site some where else! they have told me that in order to get planning a percolation test must pass
i am fussy about where i live,i dont want to move far from my home area.
do any readers know how to pass a percoaltion test, maybe some reader has lets say manipulated their site to make it pass. this is my last chance getting truly fed up with the whole thing at this point. maybe some reader could point me in the right direction?
thanks in advance
