The Irrigation Design Code of Practice and Irrigation Design Standards provide guidelines for the design process and set target specifications. Designers should aim to ensure the systems produced are water- and energy-efficient, whilst meeting the expectations of the owner.
These are non-regulatory, best-practice guidelines and are not intended to encroach upon any areas of legislative responsibility.
