They provide a visual presentation of the spatial distribution of the larger currently licensed water abstractions within defined catchments. Also shown are NRA monitoring sites for Flood Warning, Rainfall, Climate, Groundwater Status and Flow Gauging Sites. Information is current for the date displayed. The inclusion of reference numbers enables data to be accessed easily for further details as required, either internally or externally. When used in conjunction with the Water Quality Maps and Index, (report FWP/92/001) they provide a compatible display of 'activities' (within catchments). It has been necessary to display the information in two separate reports for clarity. Most abstractors of natural (non-mains) water supplies are required to hold a Licence under the Water Resources Act 1991. There are however some significant exceptions to this principle, the main ones are listed below * Abstractions from groundwater for own private domestic use where quantity is less than 20 cubic metres per day. * Abstractions from inland waters (surface water) on abstractors own property for either agricultural and/or own private domestic use, provided that the aggregate quantity for those uses is less than twenty cubic metres per day. * Abstractions from groundwater in certain areas of the Region (ie parts of North and Mid Devon and South Hams) irrespective of volume or use, as allowed for in the Devon Rivers Authority (Exceptions from Control) Order 1970.. see attached map. There are numerous legal unlicensed abstractions throughout the region. The locations of many of these are not known to the NRA and there has been no obligation on these abstractors to notify the NRA. If these abstractions are used for drinking water, then the locations will be registered by the Environmental Health Officers of Local Authorities, as part of their responsibilities under EC Directive on the quality of water intended for human consumption (80/778/EEC). This information will be available to NRA. For the sake of consistency and clarity, only licensed abstractions where the aggregate total of all uses is greater than twenty cubic metres per day have been plotted on the maps and quoted in the lists. There are many licences below this value, but displaying them on this scale of map proved inpossible for several catchments. In the abstraction lists, the locations of the water sources are shown by National Grid References. Two entries joined by a means abstraction between the two points. Location text describes approximate site of water use and the Additional Details provide an indication of broad categories of licensed abstraction uses. It should be noted that the 'maps' in these reports are not designed to be accurate Ordnance Survey Maps. They are diagrammatic representations of catchments designed to fit A4 format with grid numbers and an approximate scale provided as an aid to location. There may be apparent discrepancies between the two forms of presentation. Accurate grid references are provided by the lists.
