Our Contribution to Yorkshire OUR CONTRIBUTION TO YORKSHIRE An assessment of the impact we have and the value we create for society. May 2018 CONTENTS FOREWORD As a finance professional I am drawn to the balance sheet, but I am equally passionate about considering value beyond the traditional financial Summary Report 2 perspective to help business focus on what really matters to people. That is Foreword 3 why I am delighted to publish the findings of our first Total Impact and Value Assessment (TIVA). By looking at a broad range of economic, environmental What we do 4 and social priorities, we are considering our impacts and associated economic value like never before. This new approach is providing fresh insight that is What is Total Impact and Value Assessment? 8 helping us shape our strategy to ensure the resilience of our services, enhance Headline results 12 our positive impact on the economy and the environment, and maximise the value we create for society. Our conclusions and next steps 16 Yorkshire Water has a history of trialling innovative accounting and assessment What others think about our new approach 18 techniques that help towards more sustainable approaches. For example, we piloted Ecosystem Services Assessment with Natural England in 2012 and tested Findings Report 20 the draft Natural Capital Protocol in 2016. By bringing together these and other Financial capital 21 techniques, we are working to develop and embed practical approaches that help advance how we monitor, report, manage and improve our impact and add Manufactured capital 24 value to the society we serve. Natural capital 27 This work is helping us find new opportunities to enhance our positive impact and resulting economic contribution.

In the spirit of transparency and openness, we have also published a full breakdown Social capital 52 of our methodology in a separate report available on our website. Conclusions 59 The findings from our first TIVA stem from a mix of best practice quantitative techniques, supported by qualitative assessment in parts where further maturity Methodology Report is needed. Whilst techniques continue to develop, I am confident that we and others can start to deploy the latest sustainable accounting approaches to The methodology and a series of case inform decision making that enhances value for customers. In fact, in light of studies can be found on our website: the risks facing the water industry and wider society, I see an imperative for us www.yorkshirewater.co.uk/capitals and others to broaden our understanding of value creation and develop new approaches that can effectively ensure the sustainability of our business and our essential public services. Trusting this information We publish this report as part of our programme to co-create with our This report is unlike our other publications because we are sharing latest findings customers and stakeholders the future strategy for Yorkshire Water.

  • Charges in 2021-22 and CMA Redeterminations
    Centre City Tower, 7 Hill Street, Birmingham B5 4UA 21 Bloomsbury Street, London WC1B 3HF By email Anglian Water, Bristol Water, Northumbrian Water and Yorkshire Water Business retailers NAVs MOSL CCW Other parties 8 January 2021 Dear stakeholder Charges in 2021-22 and CMA redeterminations This letter sets out our view on the appropriate approach to making adjustments to normal charging arrangements to support the implementation of the CMA redeterminations for the four disputing companies. We are setting this out now to facilitate company statements on significant changes in charges which are due to be published on 11 January 2021 and wholesale charges which are due to be published on 13 January 2021. Four companies: Anglian Water, Bristol Water, Northumbrian Water and Yorkshire Water have asked the CMA for a redetermination of their price controls for the 2020-25 period. Following a request from three of the disputing companies for amendments to the charging rules to allow implementation of the CMA’s redetermination, my letter of 21 December 2020 consulted on the practical consequences and impact of making an accommodation under our normal charging rules with respect to three options for the implementation of the CMA’s redetermination: Implementation of changes over 4 years from 1 April 2021, which three of the four disputing companies (Anglian Water, Bristol Water and Northumbrian Water) suggested would be possible if the CMA issued its redetermination no later than the week commencing Monday, 8 February 2021 and Ofwat allowed them to publish 2021-22 charges no later than Friday, 19 February 2021. Implementation of changes during the 2021-22 charging year, which would allow charges to change during the charging year (potentially after six months) to reflect any differences in the price limits that the CMA sets such that the CMA’s price limits are smoothed over 3.5 years.

  • Faecal Bacteria Data from Samples Collected on the 24Th August 2020
    Faecal bacteria data from samples collected on the 24th August 2020 iWHARFE Improving water quality on the River Wharfe from Oughtershaw to the Ouse A citizen science project Faecal bacteria data from samples collected on the 24th August 2020 iWharfe is a citizen science project. It involves members of communities along the Wharfe valley, working together with the Environment Agency, Yorkshire Water and other agencies. It is funded by local donations and grants. The project was designed to provide a snapshot of water quality condi- tions along the entire length of the river on a single day and to raise awareness about water quality issues both for people and wildlife. Water samples were collected on the 24th August 2020. Here we report on results from samples analysed for faecal bacteria, the organisms in wastewater that cause gastro-intestinal illness. Executive Summary 1. The R. Wharfe “Big Health Check” on the 24th August 2020 involved five teams of citizen scien- tists taking water samples from 60 sites along the R. Wharfe at approximately the same time on the same day. 2. Although riverflow was relatively high, conditions were similar along the full length of the river. 3. Samples for faecal bacteria analysis were stored in cool boxes and hand-delivered to a collection point in Wakefield. They were analysed for E. coli and Intestinal Enterococci (IE) at ALS Ltd Cov- entry, an accredited microbiology laboratory, within 24 hours of sampling. 4. The results showed high concentrations of both E. coli and IE at sites between Buckden and Barden Bridge in Upper Wharfedale and at Beanlands Island in Ilkley, relatively low concentra- tions in Langstrothdale and in the stretch from Bolton Abbey to Ilkley Suspension Bridge, and var- iable concentrations downstream from Burley to the Ouse confluence at Cawood.

  • Part 1 Rea Ch Classifica Tion
    RIVER QUALITY SURVEY NATIONAL RIVERS AUTHORITY NORTHUMBRIA & YORKSHIRE REGION GQA ASSESSMENT 1994 PART 1 REA CH CLASSIFICA TION FRESHWATER RIVERS AND CANALS VERSION 1: AUGUST 1995 GQA ASSESSMENT 1994 \ NORTHUMBRIA & YORKSHIRE REGION To allow the development of a National method of evaluating water quality, the rivers in all the NRA regions of England and Wales have been divided into reaches, which are numbered using a coding system based on the hydrological reference for each river basin. Each classified reach then has a chemistry sample point assigned to it and these sample points are regularly monitored for Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Dissolved oxygen (DO) and Total Ammonia. The summary statistics calculated from the results of this sampling are sent to a National Centre where the GQA Grades are calculated. A National report is produced and each region can then produce more detailed reports on the quality of their own rivers. For Northumbria and Yorkshire Region, this Regional Report has been divided into two parts. PARTI: REACH CLASSIFICATION This report contains a listing of the river reaches within the region, with their start and finish grid reference, approximate length, and the 1990 and 1994 GQA class for each reach. The reference code of the chemistry sample point used to classify the reach is also included. A sample point may classify several reaches if there are no major discharges or tributaries dividing those reaches. The sample point used to classify a reach may change and the classification is therefore calculated using the summary statistics for each sample point that has been used over the past three years.
