Report
The UNDO tool reports are automatically generated using the report module on the tool’s ribbon. A report is generated each time the user navigates to this panel. When the user is satisfied with the development design, the UNDO tool report can be printed and submitted (generally as an Appendix to their local water management strategy).
Checklist for submitting a report
UNDO tool reports are not useful to decision-making authorities by themselves – they require extra information relating to the development design. It is recommended that the following information is submitted with an UNDO tool report (many of these items, particularly the development maps and groundwater maps, will already be included as part of the greater local water management strategy document):
-
Development maps: The development maps associated with UNDO should clearly show the following (multiple maps may be required to display these items effectively):
- The breakdown of the development into subregions
- The breakdown of the development into land-use categories (this includes landscaping of the development’s public open space and road reserves (with respect the UNDO tool’s land-use categories)
- The drainage system, clearly defining the overland flow drainage and subsoil drainage system (if it is present)
- The position of each of the structural BMPs and their corresponding catchment areas
-
Groundwater maps: These should show groundwater contours used to derive the groundwater slope and the depth to groundwater.
-
Laboratory reports: These are required if imported fill is used, and are required to test the PRI of the fill.
In addition, UNDO tool files (.undo) may be requested in some instances. If targets for the development area are stipulated by local or state government agencies, proponents should also compare the results of the development to target nutrient export rates.
