Ofwat consults on proposed licence condition to improve asset management maturity of water companies
Ofwat has launched a new consultation on its proposal to introduce a licence condition to improve asset management maturity of water companies.
The Climate Change Committee (CCC) has released its first assessment of the new Government’s progress on reducing emissions - the independent, statutory body says that with more action UK will hit its legally binding climate targets.
A Taunton potato farmer has been prosecuted by the Environment Agency for causing silt, soil and potatoes to escape from a field and seriously pollute a tributary of the River Tone in Somerset.
River Action has been granted permission by the High Court to proceed with a legal challenge against water sector Ofwat for a full court hearing to challenge the approach the regulator took when it set the amounts that water companies can charge their customers at the 2024 Price Review.
Two new Water (Special Measures) Act measures came into force yesterday - water companies will now have to publish plans to reduce pollution incidents and address the use of nature-based solutions when managing wastewater.
