They can look forward to a higher quality water service and an improved environment within a framework of falling prices, thanks to the growing efficiency of the water companies. My determinations of price limits for water companies in England and Wales, for the years 2000–01 to 2004–05, are set out in this publication. The price limits vary from company to company and from year to year. These variations result from a fair and consistent application of the policies I have established over recent years, taking account, where appropriate, of each company’s circumstances. I have listened carefully to all stakeholders’ views and taken account of ministerial guidance and the latest available information. As a consequence, I have made some changes to my draft price limits for individual companies. In particular, there are changes to the price limits for North West Water arising from ministerial guidance. Companies will now draw up their charges schemes which will govern the bills sent to individual customers for the year beginning 1 April 2000. Under the Water Industry Act 1999, charges schemes must be approved by me. I consulted and then published my conclusions (MD152, September 1999) on the criteria which I will use to assess them, paying regard to ministerial guidance on social and environmental matters. I will also ensure that companies implement Regulations enacted under the Act. The effect on individual bills will depend on many factors. Not all customers will see the same reduction in their bills next April. Once I have approved the charges schemes, the individual companies must explain clearly to their customers how their bills will be affected. The Periodic Review has involved much research and consultation. I determine the limits on the average prices which companies can charge their customers in each of the five years, and the infrastructure charge limit for customers connecting to the system for the first time. These limits must, of course, be justified and explained. This document does that. Statutory duties When setting price limits I must comply with my statutory duties. This has involved making judgements about: • what companies must do to carry out their functions properly, including their legally enforceable obligations; • the revenue which the companies need to finance their functions and to earn a reasonable return on the investment needed to meet their legal obligations; • the affordability and value for money for customers of the charges which companies need to levy; • the promotion of efficiency and economy, through incentives to reduce costs and improve service performance, and penalties for high costs and poor performance; • facilitating competition by relating prices to the costs incurred by companies. In balancing these factors, there is no answer that can please everyone. 5 Ministerial guidance I have taken account of the Government’s views on the framework for utility regulation as set out in A fair deal for consumers (July 1998), considering how best to distinguish between the income that companies earn through their own efforts and that which results from other factors. In particular, following the advice of my panel of senior industrialists, I have strengthened incentives for companies to make efficiency savings in their operating costs and to deliver good service. In an open letter in April 1998, I sought ministerial guidance on the legal obligations they had placed, or would be placing, on water companies in the years from 2000 to 2005.

  • South West River Basin District Flood Risk Management Plan 2015 to 2021 Habitats Regulation Assessment
    South West river basin district Flood Risk Management Plan 2015 to 2021 Habitats Regulation Assessment March 2016 Executive summary The Flood Risk Management Plan (FRMP) for the South West River Basin District (RBD) provides an overview of the range of flood risks from different sources across the 9 catchments of the RBD. The RBD catchments are defined in the River Basin Management Plan (RBMP) and based on the natural configuration of bodies of water (rivers, estuaries, lakes etc.). The FRMP provides a range of objectives and programmes of measures identified to address risks from all flood sources. These are drawn from the many risk management authority plans already in place but also include a range of further strategic developments for the FRMP ‘cycle’ period of 2015 to 2021. The total numbers of measures for the South West RBD FRMP are reported under the following types of flood management action: Types of flood management measures % of RBD measures Prevention – e.g. land use policy, relocating people at risk etc. 21 % Protection – e.g. various forms of asset or property-based protection 54% Preparedness – e.g. awareness raising, forecasting and warnings 21% Recovery and review – e.g. the ‘after care’ from flood events 1% Other – any actions not able to be categorised yet 3% The purpose of the HRA is to report on the likely effects of the FRMP on the network of sites that are internationally designated for nature conservation (European sites), and the HRA has been carried out at the level of detail of the plan. Many measures do not have any expected physical effects on the ground, and have been screened out of consideration including most of the measures under the categories of Prevention, Preparedness, Recovery and Review.

  • Written Evidence Submitted by Pennon/South West Water Pennon Group
    Pennon /South West Water WQR0056 Written evidence submitted by Pennon/South West Water Pennon Group Pennon Group is a FTSE100 company and the owners of South West Water and Bournemouth Water. We provide water and wastewater services to a population of c.1.7 million in Cornwall, Devon and parts of Dorset and Somerset, and water-only services to c.0.5 million in parts of Dorset, Hampshire, and Wiltshire. South West Water sustains 6,000 jobs in the regional economy and, since 1989, has invested more than £7 billion to maintain and improve water and wastewater services. At the time of privatisation our coastal bathing waters were blighted by raw sewage outfalls but years of sustained investment by South West Water has transformed them into some of the best in Europe. Our pioneering Upstream Thinking catchment management scheme was one of the first to demonstrate nature-based improvements to water quality. We care deeply about the environment and are currently making our largest environmental investment for 15 years, with additional proposals submitted to Defra and our regulators to accelerate and expand investment to support a Green Recovery. In addition to the written views provided below, our CEO Susan Davy would be delighted to assist the Committee’s inquiry further by providing oral evidence. Summary of our view Our customers and communities are placing increasing importance on river water quality for amenity, in addition to ecology We care deeply about the environment and the priorities of our customers and communities - the environment is now our top priority, second only to safe clean drinking water Experience has taught us that working in partnership and understanding how most effectively to intervene will be essential if we are to play our part in delivering a step-change in river quality.

  • Drinking Water Quality, Second Edition
    This page intentionally left blank Drinking Water Quality This textbook provides a comprehensive review of the problems associated with the supply of drinking water in the developed world. Since the first edition of this book was published there have been enormous changes in the water industry, especially in the way drinking water is perceived and regulated. Water companies and regulators have been presented with numerous new challenges – global warming has seriously affected the sustainability of water supplies as well as impacting water quality; advances in chemical and microbial analysis have revealed many new contaminants in water that were previously undetectable or unknown; and recent terrorist attacks have demonstrated how vulnerable water supplies could be to contamination or disruption. This new edition is an overview of the current and emerging problems, and what can be done to solve them. It has been completely updated, and includes the new WHO Revised Drinking Water Guidelines. Drinking Water Quality is an ideal textbook for courses in environmental science, hydrology, environmental health, and environmental engineering. It also provides an authoritative reference for practitioners and professionals in the water supply industry. N. F. GRAY is a Professor at the Centre for the Environment at Trinity College, Dublin. He has worked in the area of water technology for 30 years, and is internationally known as a lecturer and author in water quality and pollution control. His research specializes in the operational problems associated with supplying drinking water and treating wastewaters. Drinking Water Quality Second Edition N. F.
