stop thames water dumping sewage

From "Call for Ideas, Opportunities and Sites"

Go to the project

This treatment plant is one of the worst in the country for storm discharges of untreated sewage, both in the wet and dry weather. this has not had any upgrade despite the village population rising by 25% in the last few years.

The raw sewage has devastated wildlife in the streams between hear and the thames which are now ecologically dead.

In addition the discarge of solids when sewage is not treated has led to build up of sediment in the drainage channels between here and the thames (not far from where we get the drinking water out by the way) which is exacerbating flooding again destroying the biodiversity of the area
