Notes:
Lee Valley Water plc has, in a joint study with the University of Birmingham, been reassessing the reliable yields of its existing chalk sources in order to make maximum use of the available groundwater resources. An approach to yield assessment was developed which took into account the hydrogeology and flow processes in the vicinity of pumping stations, and within the contributing area. The yield of many sources was found to be very dependent on regional water level conditions. Initial estimates of potential yields were made but future monitoring should aim to clarify the interrelationship between source output and aquifer state.
