More about DWMP

Northumbrian Water is committed to producing Drainage and Wastewater Management Plans (DWMP) which will provide a basis for long-term planning of drainage and wastewater services.

 

These plans are based upon guidance from Water UK and are being produced industry-wide.

Why do we need DWMP

Drainage and Wastewater Management Plans (DWMP) give us a starting point for long-term planning of drainage and wastewater services.

 

These plans are based on guidance from Water UK and are being produced across the industry.

 

The DWMP will show how we will:

  • support economic growth
  • support resilient communities, and
  • protect and enhance the environment.

We'll collaborate with others outside of Northumbrian Water to ensure the DWMP is of benefit to all of our stakeholders and customers.

What it means for you

The DWMP sees us analyse sewer performance across our region and highlight where future work will be needed.

 

We focus on three key areas:

  • flooding
  • environmental, and
  • sewage treatment. 

We'll look at these issues so we can make sure Northumbrian Water’s next regulatory business plan submission take those issues into account.

 

To get the best outcomes for everyone in our region, we'll work with customers and any organisations who have an interest, including stakeholders with an interest in planning, development, risk management and the environment.
