sustainable development

We are proud to provide a sustainable, affordable, clean and safe water supply and to manage and treat the waste water returned to us in a way that protects the environment.

 

Waste and recycling

We will minimise waste and recycle or reuse materials wherever we can.

We recognise that our key wastes include spoil, sludges and office waste and are reducing the amount of waste generated by our activities, seeking to recover as much usable material as economically practicable and to dispose of the residual waste in a responsible manner.
