Ofwat to double the assumed spill rate for unmonitored overflows

Ofwat has toughed up its stance on unmonitored storm overflows at PR24, opting to assume double the spill rate consulted on in May.


Announcing its decision on how the storm overflows performance commitment will work, Ofwat said it would assume unmonitored overflows and those where the monitor is not working properly are spilling 100 times a year. This is around four times the current average and double what Ofwat consulted on in May 2023.


The intention is to provide a strong incentive for companies to install and maintain their monitors and ensure they face financial consequences if they do not.
