There is a first outlet (24) for connection to a surface water sewerage system. The flow of collected rainwater through said first outlet (24) is determined by a remotely controlled first valve (28). A second outlet (56) and tap valve (58) allow the rainwater to be drained for other uses. The vessel (12) is formed from plurality of tubes (50) arranged in a grid formation and connected by a manifold (52). Bundles of partial tube lengths connected end to end to create a significant height and volume of vessel (12)..
