GENERAL PROJECT

Lanchester Sewer Treatment Works

As part of the Water Industry National Environmental Programme (WINEP), we will be installing chemical dosing plant (ferric sulphate and sodium hydroxide) and a new tertiary treatment stage to enable the site to meet the forthcoming phosphorous discharge consent. The improvement works will cost around £6.4m, and it’s one of 27 sites within the NWG region to receive this upgrade. Phosphorous is a nutrient and can cause algae to grow in watercourses, reducing biodiversity and river water quality.

Good morning,

I hope you are well and are settling into 2025.

Since returning from the Christmas Break, the Site Team have continued progressing well with the Project, so I thought I’d share this with you.

Ammonia sample point concrete shuttering and prep work.
Road reinstatement prep work.
NEPS installing pipe supports.
Prep for MH28 to MH25 works.
Intelect continue works.
Concrete slots booked for every day next week. (Weather permitting).

As always, if you wanted to ask us anything, please don’t hesitate to add a comment in the box below and a member of the Project Team will respond accordingly.

Take care and speak soon,

Bethany
