Water - The Environment

In order to secure future water supplies and to protect the natural environment the ways in which water companies interact with the natural water cycle are monitored. The main concerns of the regulatory bodies are to;

• Control discharges to rivers and seas
• Conserve water resources
• Prevent pollution
• Promote conservation
• Regulate companies which impact the environment through a system of licenses
