GENERAL PROJECT

Kielder (Yarrow Moor) Septic Tanks

To improve the resilience and enhance the performance of the sewer network in the Kielder catchment Northumbrian Water is investing in improving sewage disposal in the Yarrow Moor vicinity. This work will ensure we deliver sewerage services that meet the needs of current and future generations whilst improving the quality of our rivers and watercourses for the benefit of people, the environment and wildlife.

Update by Ian Davison

Hi I hope you all remain well.

I can confirm that the improvement work will commence on 14 November 2022.

This construction work will comprise the installation of a prefabricated cesspit adjacent to the car park off the dam road, a new foul sewer will intercept the existing septic tank flows and transfer the effluent to the cesspit. Limited separation of existing property drainage will be undertaken, if you are going to be directly affected by the separation work, our site team will contact you in advance. To aid future maintenance an off road compound will be constructed to ensure small tankers can take direct access to the draw down point. The work will also include the abandonment of the existing septic tanks.

If you have any querries please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Many Thanks

Ian
