I work for Northumbrian Water as a Technical Policy Manager responsible for policy in the areas of bathing water quality, pollution and storm overflows.
🤖We’re starting a world-first study which could see us using drones to help improve the quality of rivers and coasts.
We’ll explore how they could carry out large-scale, remote water quality monitoring and capture key data, allowing us to respond quickly to any issues.
We’re still seeing the impacts of the recent freeze-thaw on our networks with teams of our people working day and night fixing leaks and keeping our treatment works running ❄️
Over the past seven days, they have managed to fix over 200 leaks right across the region.
❄️Milder weather is forecast for the coming days and we’re expecting this sudden change in temperature to impact our water networks, pipes, and plumbing.
This can cause an increase in leaks and bursts.
