Thames Water requests the following condition to be added to any planning permission. "No piling shall take place until a PILING METHOD STATEMENT (detailing the depth and type of piling to be undertaken and the methodology by which such piling will be carried out, including measures to prevent and minimise the potential for damage to subsurface sewerage infrastructure, and the programme for the works) has been submitted to and approved in writing by the local planning authority in consultation with Thames Water. Any piling must be undertaken in accordance with the terms of the approved piling method statement." Reason: The proposed works will be in close proximity to underground sewerage utility infrastructure. Piling has the potential to significantly impact / cause failure of local underground sewerage utility infrastructure.

  • Writing on Behalf of Click and Type Name of Networks
    Press Release Utility Networks Partnership 24 June 2020 United front by utilities to help customers in vulnerable situations People who need extra help during a water, electricity or gas emergency will benefit from a new partnership approach by 12 utility companies. They have created a joint video to promote the Priority Services Register, a service that all utilities provide for people needing extra support for a variety of reasons. The companies involved are all members of the Utility Networks Partnership and are already working closely together to help customers living in vulnerable circumstances. They are Affinity Water, Anglian Water, Northumbrian Water, Essex and Suffolk Water, SES Water, SGN, South East Water, Southern Water, Thames Water, UK Power Networks Cadent Gas and Cambridge Water. Andy Clowes, Head of Customer Insight and Strategy, South East Water said: “Taking care of our customers is at the heart of everything we do. “That’s why across the utility sector we have come together to make the Priority Services Register even easier to use, giving our customers extra support when they need it most. It’s completely free of charge and it’s simple to sign up.” Kerry Potter, UK Power Networks’ consumer vulnerability manager, who chairs the Utility Networks Partnership, said: “It’s fantastic to work as a team to create a new video promoting the Priority Services Register which is making it easier for eligible people to get support. When 12 utility companies share a consistent message, we can help far more people. “Collaboration is key to tackling vulnerability and our utility networks group work together to provide consistent services for vulnerable customers in the regions we serve.” Press Release Utility Networks Partnership Thirty-five charity partners have helped develop the video to increase awareness about the free help available from utilities in the event of a gas, water or electricity outage.

  • Amended Statement General Permitted Development Order
    Amended Statement General Permitted Development Order (GPDO) M25 Widening Junction 16 to Junction 23 Two Environmental Mitigation Bunds – Off Junction 17 1. Introduction This Statement is an Amendment to a Statement which the Skanska Balfour Beatty Joint (SBBJV or JV) submitted to Three Rivers District Council in January 2009. The original Statement described the construction of an environmental mitigation bund to the east of the M25 motorway, north of Junction 17, in the area of Mill End in Rickmansworth. This Amendment does not repeat the review of the M25 Widening project which was described in the original Statement. The widening works started on 27 May 2009, four weeks later than planned as a result of the delay to the signing of the Highways Agency contract. Since the submission of the original Statement in January 2009, the Highways Agency has held the Start of Works Exhibitions during March. During these events Local Authority representatives, local residents and other interested parties discussed the bund proposals with the Highways Agency and the JV. As a result of these discussions, and residents’ concerns about the original design, Three Rivers District Council and the JV have reconsidered the opportunities to maximise the benefit of bunding in this area. This consultation has identified that a bund on the eastern side of the motorway, north of Junction 17, would benefit residents of Mill End and Rickmansworth. This bund would be smaller in design than the bund originally submitted. A second, small bund on the western side of the motorway, north of Junction 17, was promoted by a number of residents of Chorleywood.

We know that people outside the industry in most cases won’t understand these terms, so we try not to use them when talking to customers and other stakeholders. Despite this, we’re aware that we may occasionally, and unintentionally, include some of this jargon when talking about what we do. That’s why we’ve come up with this brief guide to some of the language and concepts commonly used within the water business.

  • Northumbrian Water Transforming Field Service with Mobile Workforce Management
    Best Practices Northumbrian Water Transforming Field Service with Mobile Workforce Management Roberta Bigliani Jean-François Segalotto IDC ENERGY INSIGHTS OPINION Northumbrian Water Limited (NWL) is a water and sewerage company supplying water and wastewater services to 2.7 million customers in the northeast of England as Northumbrian Water, and water services to 1.8 million customers in parts of Essex, Suffolk, and Norfolk as Essex & Suffolk Water. As part of its vision to be the U.K.'s leading water and wastewater company, in 2012 NWL embarked on a program aimed at transforming field service operations. The objective was to implement significant and sustainable improvements to field service operations by designing and implementing changes to NWL processes and technology to ensure that the company delivers work at the right time with the right people in the right place. Key features of the program include the following: . The development of a transformative operational business vision of field services jointly executed by business and IT in four months as the foundation for change. The deployment of a consistent end-to-end field service management process across the serviced territory. The implementation of a new mobile workforce solution executed in about 15 months by Infosys in collaboration with NWL using Oracle Utilities Mobile Workforce Management (OUMWM) software. The solution has been in operation since November 2014. While still in deployment the field service program generated financial benefits of about £1.2 million. Even more is expected in the future considering the project is improving productivity in planning, scheduling, execution, and completion of works.

    July 2019 Trust in water Thames Water ‒ Outcomes performance commitment appendix www.ofwat.gov.uk PR19 draft determinations: Thames Water – Outcomes performance commitment appendix PR19 draft determinations: Thames Water – Outcomes performance commitment appendix This appendix sets out in detail the performance commitments and outcome delivery incentives we are putting in place for Thames Water for the period 2020-2025. This is a technical document to specify clearly the company’s performance commitments and outcome delivery incentives. This document is not intended to substitute the information that Thames Water should provide to its customers on its outcomes and performance commitments. This appendix sets out each of the company’s performance commitments and associated outcome delivery incentives, firstly for common and then for bespoke performance commitments. The appendix provides the following information on each performance commitment: • the name and unique identifier of the performance commitment; • a summary of the purpose and benefits of the performance commitment. The definitions and other terms set out in the performance commitment should be considered to be authoritative in determining the company’s commitments and incentives under the performance commitment; • the detailed definition of the performance commitment. Where these refer to, and incorporate, linked information as part of the description of any aspect of these definitions (for example documents on the Ofwat or other website, or an attachment to the performance commitment), the linked information should be considered to be authoritative in interpreting the definitions of the performance commitment, unless otherwise stated. It is the company’s responsibility to report accurate and complete information and it must have adequate processes in place to do this.
