eso outfalls statement | Fordingbridge CSO discharges to the River Avon approximately 200m upstream of the bathing water. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
misconnections statement | Modern sewerage systems have two separate systems, one takes foul sewage to sewage treatment, the other takes rainwater runoff through surface water drains to rivers, lakes and the sea. Misconnections occur when waste water pipes are plumbed into surface water drains instead of the foul water sewerage system. This can give rise to pollution when the waste water is discharged directly to the environment through the surface water drain. For example, a washing machine or toilet may be incorrectly plumbed so that it discharges to the surface drain rather than the foul sewage drain. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
